Advanced Principles of Upper Extremity Adjusting

Taught by Dr. Kevin Hearon.

Advanced Principles of Upper Extremity Adjusting gives doctors and students an enhanced ability to relate an efficient diagnostic protocol and analysis of a patient’s upper extremities and then perform proper treatment via chiropractic care. The seminar focuses on specific techniques and diagnostic treatments for subluxations and common issues found within the body’s upper extremities. It then circles back to how the strength of those extremities affects the stability of spine and the patient’s ability to perform at a strong, uninhibited level. Doctor Hearon will carefully work with attendees to cover subluxations of the shoulder girdle, shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand and their relationship to spine stability during this advanced chiropractic course. No prior courses are necessary to attend this CCEP-qualifying, weekend seminar.
