(12 Hours) Autism rates are now 1 in 36 kids in the US. ADHD affects more than 10% of US children. 1 in 6 kids born today will have a developmental disability. Pediatric chiropractors who see (or want to see more of) these special populations will greatly benefit from this innovative approach that combines a special blend of instrument and tonal chiropractic, functional neurology, and nutrition. This is a Monday-morning applicable seminar—you will come back to your offices with tools to use immediately that will make an impact. Bring your dolls. Expect lots of hands-on.
This seminar was previously titled Enhancing Pediatric Neuroplasticity.
Course Goal
Gain the knowledge and confidence to specifically care for children who come into your office with various neurodevelopmental issues. This will range from infant challenges such as nursing/latching issues, colic/reflux, and difficulties in crawling/walking to many of the “Alphabet Soup” disorders like ADHD, ASD, LD, and SPD. You will also develop an understanding of specific history-taking and examination procedures for both instrument and tonal styles of chiropractic adjusting, functional neurological exercises, and dietary changes.
What to Bring: Please bring a baby doll -- any type of baby doll, other than a Barbie (too small) or Cabbage Patch Kid (no neck), is acceptable. If available, please bring a portable table (only if the seminar is not taking place at a college).
