Diagnostics & Application provides hands-on experience applying The Pettibon Weighting System to correct posture and using soft tissue rehabilitation equipment for maximum results. This practicum will enable participants to:
- Conduct posture examinations, accurately identifying posture patterns and appropriately applying weights–head, shoulder and hip–so that spinal misalignments are altered and the body is balanced relative to the weights.
- Use soft tissue rehabilitation equipment–6-Way Cervical-Dorsal Exercise Strap, Repetitive Cervical Traction, Wobble Chair, and Thoracic Roll–safely and accurately following their protocols.
Advanced Practicum & Case Management reviews actual case studies and covers how patient treatment plans are determined from x-rays and testing. Doctors will be required to bring sets of marked and measured x-rays for some of their patients. This practicum will enable participants to:
- Develop treatment goals and plans for patients based on their marked and measured x-rays and tests.
