Join Dr. Alicia Yochum for a course which will cover utilization and indication for different imaging modalities in the pediatric population. We will discuss common pathologies that present such as hip dysplasia, slipped epiphysis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis and child abuse.

Functional neurology is quickly becoming synonymous with transformative care. This paradigm of care which has its roots in chiropractic philosophy, allows for the assessment of neurological dysfunction and implementation of neurological modalities, including chiropractic, to aid in the restoration of optimal neurological integrity. In this webinar, Dr. Matthew Antonucci will provide a brief introduction to the core concepts in Functional Neurology, 9 basic assessments of neurological integrity, and the foundation of how to target chiropractic care to restore brain integrity.

Join Dr. Spencer Baron as he examines what chiropractors can learn from understanding the mindset of an athlete, from pee wee to pro, and applying their training to athletes. This course is designed to teach doctors of chiropractic how to leverage their drug-free skills in the athletic arena, how to demonstrate and discuss the benefits of chiropractic care for athletes, how to manage concussions and injuries without the use of opioids, and more. Dr. Baron will also briefly discuss why the spotlight on opioid abuse in athletics is not as bright as that one shown on the larger opioid epidemic in America.

Join Dr. Daniel Bockmann for Part 2 of this course which provides comprehensive, practical instruction on how to introduce a simple, effective, evidence-informed low-back rehab program into any doctor’s practice, with little to no equipment needed. The course focuses on the key elements of any effective treatment protocol, including: how to take an airtight patient history, streamline your physical and orthopedic exam, prescribe a powerful treatment plan, gauge patient progress, and teach your patients how to maintain their results. This course provides the knowledge and skills necessary to enable the busy clinician to build an effective low-tech/no-tech rehab protocol into their practice, or streamline their existing one. Part 2 of this 2-part course will discuss how chiropractors can build an effective low-tech/no-tech rehab protocol into their practice by applying simple treatment tactics, using 5 clinical tools: spinal manipulation, stretches, massage/foam rolling, exercise & lifestyle modification. Upon completion of this course, registrants will also be able to create and explain return-to-work/return-to-play (RTP) guidelines for each patient that are safe, speedy and easy to understand.

In this webinar, Dr. Karen Erickson will explore normal and abnormal posture and it's impact on the female patient throughout her physiological journey. You will learn how to evaluate sitting, standing and sleeping posture as well as how phones and computers impact posture and health. Dr Erickson will elucidate the important role chiropractors can play in the healthcare of our female patients. Chiropractic care and patient education can help avoid downstream consequences of poor posture in girls and women including spinal curvature, spinal pain and degeneration, muscle imbalance, headache, respiratory dysfunction, ligament laxity and bone density.

Join Jennifer Brocker, DC, DICCP, president of the ACA Council on Chiropractic Pediatrics, on Monday, Feb. 11, at 1:00 p.m. ET as she highlights the current research on the safety of pediatric chiropractic care and the unique aspects of conducting and documenting a pediatric patient visit, including a narrative history, physical exam and daily subjective-objective-assessment-and-plan (SOAP) notes. After viewing this webinar, registrants will be able to identify and explain the current research on the safety of chiropractic care in pediatrics, describe the unique aspects of the narrative history, physical exam, and SOAP note documentation for a pediatric patient, and more.

In June of 2018 the landmark Lancet Low Back Pain Series was published. Professor Jan Hartvigsen was co-chair for the steering group. In this webinar he will present the content and key points from the series. These include description of what low back pain is and the burden and impact of low back pain on individuals and societies; current recommendations from evidence-based clinical guidelines and the evidence-practice gap that is apparent everywhere; promising new directions in management of low back pain; and finally, a global call to action for individuals, clinicians and decision makers. He will highlight the need for change in the way we deal with low back pain and musculoskeletal disorders and how chiropractors can be important stakeholders in promoting and leading this change.

From a public health perspective, breastfeeding has a strong positive impact on both infant and maternal health. Studies now show pediatric chiropractic care may help improve a baby’s ability to breastfeed. This class will empower doctors of chiropractic to effectively manage infant patients with suboptimal breastfeeding.

Join Dr. Tim Bertelsman for this practical presentation will begin with a discussion of the current evidence-based evaluation and management of common lumbar structural pathology. The discussion will progress to review the most commonly overlooked “functional” problems that delay NMS recovery. In one way or another, these functional diagnoses contribute to many, if not all, of the lumbar structural diagnoses that chiropractors treat. Attendees will leave with immediately applicable, practical information for enhancing clinical outcomes.
