An Introduction to the Essentials of Receptor-Based® Neurorehabilitation
This 1-hour workshop has been developed with one objective in mind: to make neurology easy, applicable, and effective for the practicing chiropractor, regardless of their practice model. The brain is the master control system, and everything a chiropractor does influences a patient’s brain. During this workshop, Dr. Antonucci will help develop your neurological observation skills, provide simple yet effective assessments, and coach the delegate through applications that you can implement immediately.
Learning Objectives:
- Identification and localization of neurological function
- Implement pragmatic, low-cost diagnostic procedures
- Hands-on practical implementation of examination procedures
- Deliver precise, effective neurological therapies to aid in the rehabilitation of neurological conditions
