Introduction To Functional Neurology -‐ How the Nervous System Influences Muscle Tone and Posture
25th – 26th April 2015 Copenhagen, Denmark
Nicole Oliver, DC, MChiro, BSc(Hons), DACNB
Neurology has been at the heart of the Chiropractic profession since its very beginning. But it is only in recent years that advances in clinical neuroscience have allowed us to truly understand how our treatment affects the nervous system; and how this effect allows us to restore and preserve good structure and function within the musculoskeletal system. Although neuroanatomy and neurology form a substantial part of the chiropractic undergraduate curriculum, very few chiropractors use this knowledge in the day-‐to-‐day treatment of their patients; it tends to be used solely to rule out gross neurological pathology. This seminar will introduce you to the practical aspects of functional neurology focusing on how brainstem, spinal cord and peripheral nerve mechanisms influence muscle tone and posture. The emphasis will be on clinical applications and helping you to integrate your newly acquired skills and knowledge into everyday practice.
Course Content:
v How to treat rotator cuff impingement, tennis elbow, IT-‐band syndrome and plantar fasciitis more specifically and more effectively. How to treat the underlying cause and thus help prevent recurrence of these conditions.
v How to manage cervical and lumbar radiculopathies as well as peripheral entrapment neuropathies more successfully.
v How to deal with muscle imbalances, spinal instability, altered spinal curves and abnormal head posture caused by cerebellar or other functional brain imbalances.
v How to avoid undesirable side effects of treatment, such as excessive soreness, headaches, nausea or light-‐headedness. You will learn the basic principles of how neurons work, why it is important to respect their metabolic capacity, and why sometimes it might be better to adjust a finger rather than C1 in a neck pain patient.
v How to address brain imbalances using your existing techniques. v Novel treatment interventions, including coupled-‐motion adjusting, fast-‐stretching, vestibular stimulation,
as well as various physical and mental exercises that are designed to activate different regions of the brain.
