IN-PERSON COURSE

PRACTICAL CHIROPRACTIC NEUROLOGY:
WHAT YOU SHOULD HAVE LEARNT AT SCHOOL THAT YOU NEED TO KNOW IN PRACTICE

We all know chiropractic affects the nervous system. But do we know how? We spend many hours learning about the connection brain-spine, but we do we then know how to look for it in practice, let alone, how to treat the nervous system specifically?

This seminar  is designed to teach you everything you didn’t learn in college, but is essential for you to know in daily practice. This two-day seminar is great for those of you starting out in practice. You will discover how the body reacts to chiropractic. But also for you veterans out there, curious about the basics of understanding of how your adjustments are affecting the nervous system.

What will you learn?

• gain 3D knowledge of the nervous system;
• understand the functional relationship of the brain, brain stem, cerebellum and visual system;
• be able to perform (practical) diagnosis and treatment pertaining to the information (apply what you learn immediately);
• bit by bit information with action steps to try in clinic each day;
• identify nervous system dysfunction by analysing the posture, balance, eye movement and autonomic changes associated with the nervous system;

What will you gain?

• tools to examine the ‘windows’ of the nervous system. We were taught that T4 was the ‘key’ to the spine… Well, T4 ‘no way no more’!
• tools to know how to adjust your treatment;
• the knowledge of how to perform a full autonomic nervous system evaluation;
• insight to the ‘key’ areas of the nervous system;
• the ability to communicate your assessment in a clear and understandable way to other health care providers;
