Neurology of the Cervical Spine – Adam Klotzek

COURSE DESCRIPTION

In this dynamic presentation, learners will be guided through a modern neuro-biomechanical approach to understanding how the visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive systems contribute to ongoing cervical spine dysfunction and pain. Emphasis will be placed on dynamic assessments demonstrating cervical spine dysfunction and contributions from the accompanying systems mentioned above. A triangulating model will be presented, helping learners better focus their adjusting techniques, movement, and myofascial therapies. This is a learn-by-doing seminar, where learners will practice every assessment, adjusting technique, movement, and myofascial therapy, ensuring that you are fully prepared to implement these techniques come Monday morning in your practice.

Introduction to Active Release Techniques® (ART) – Elisabetta Misitano, D.C.

Join an introductory workshop about Active Release Techniques® (ART). ART is a state of the art, patented soft tissue diagnosis and treatment system that resolves problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves. ART’s treatment protocols focus on removing adhesions and contractures which can develop in tissues as a result of overload due to repetitive use or trauma. In this seminar, Elisabetta Misitano, ART Europe’s Italian instructor, will share the science behind ART, and why it works so well with chiropractic care. The majority of the workshop will be hands-on demonstrations of a few treatment protocols followed by practice with participants.

The event is free of charge for the Seminar participants! Register as soon as possible – LIMITED places available! Send an email to the AIC office aic@chiropratica.it in order to reserve your workshop! First come, first served!
