Chiropractic Extravaganza - 24 CE hours
What's New with Insurance, Billing & Coding
Insurance is changing. This seminar will discuss the way providers are being tracked for their code usage, and how decisions are made about claims.
This program will enhance your knowledge of current Insurance requirements along with Coding and ICD-10 updates being implemented. This will give you the knowledge of any existing and new requirements to which he must adhere to comply with his documentation and coding. You will learn the details on Insurance and how to properly adhere to the laws and regulations.
Outcome Assessment Tools: Acute vs. Chronic vs. Maintenance/Wellness
"Chiropractic: It Works."
That was enough for a long time, but Chiropractic practice today demands more. Regardless of your practice style or philosophy, outcome assessments are the universal language of health care.
Outcome assessments are the gold standard of justification for treatment; whether that be at an elevated interval due to acute pain or dysfunction or at a reduced interval with minimal pain but persistent dysfunction.
Outcome assessments bridge that gap and justify care within the very diverse chiropractic community, reviewers, payors, insurance companies, judges and juries. Being well versed and able to utilize them is essential for patient care in the 21st century.
Dr. Darrach will review the different types of assessment tools beside Oswestry and NDI: what they mean and how to incorporate them into your everyday practice. Acute vs Chronic vs Maintenance/Wellness. Confusing these can put chiropractors at risk during post payment audits. Learn how to transition between each.

Common Concerns You See & Shouldn't Miss on Imaging - with Dr. Alicia Yochum
In this brand-new seminar, Dr. Alicia Yochum will review common issues you see on imaging films and files, along with some uncommon issues that are vital that you catch! You will participate in trying to see what she sees on actual case images. This class will enable you to gain more knowledge on what should be showing on imaging and what should not be showing, what should be cause for concern and possibly referred out, and issues that can help you better treat the patient’s concern to get them functioning better. Join us for this exciting new seminar!
Nerve Entrapments & How To Treat Them Successfully
This course will focus primarily on functional pathologies and treatment as it relates to nerve entrapment
Peripheral nerve entrapments can occur in multiple locations along the extraspinal extent of the nerve – between the intervertebral foramen and the most distal nerve endings in the extremities. The most frequent symptom of locomotor system adaptation/dysfunction is pain. The structure that most frequently expresses pain is the muscle with its trigger points and painful attachments. Treatment must address the etiology causing the nerve compression.
Dr. Carter will teach what to look for when you take the history and perform the physical exam. He will show you how to correctly identify and treat nerve entrapments successfully. You will learn the compression of different nerve types and symptoms associated with each that you can treat successfully, then move on to how to best treat them and help your patients.
Foundations of Functional Medicine with a Focus on Inflammation the Thyroid
Dr. Kendel will review the biochemical process behind thyroid issues and how chiropractors can treat these issues with success. He will review the influence of a leaky gut and the gut microbiome and their importance and role they play in the thyroid’s function.
In this seminar, you will learn:
1. Triggers for thyroid malfunction
2. Hyper- and Hypo- Thyroidism and how we can test for them
3. What Chiropractors can do to best treat patients with these problems
4. How to return to a properly functioning thyroid
Myofascial Disruption Technique Workshop
Myofascial Disruption Technique is a hands on soft tissue method of treatment that is based on science and the understanding of how soft tissue breaks down, how to identify what is broken down, and exactly how to fix it. There are 7 specific soft tissue conditions that can be clearly identified and successfully treated with very straightforward principals.
This course will clearly demonstrate the principles that will tell you exactly what and how to treat the condition for a very rapid response. After reviewing the science, the very specific conditions are discussed and treatment is demonstrated on live patients.

Science Based Nutrition - Foundational Laboratory Analysis
Dr. Van Merkle will teach you how to identify serious diseases, determine metabolic imbalances and nutrient recommendations by using objective testing. He will cover advanced analysis and nutritional protocols from comprehensive blood tests and extensive profiles correlating with hair analysis, urinalysis and other objective testing. The course reviews recognizing, assessing and determining appropriate referral or collaborative treatment of a patient’s conditions and treatment.
Assessment of Neurological Disturbance Using Heart Rate & Skin Temperature
This seminar teaches chiropractors the rationale, procedure, and interpretation of evidence-based in-office testing that will monitor ANS changes following your spinal care, comparing pre- and post-adjustment findings.
The testing covered in this seminar includes:
a. Skin temperature analysis (symmetry and pattern models). Instruments include simple single probe infrared thermometers as well as the elaborate TyTron thermographic system
b. Resting heart rate and heart rate variability. Technology includes App-based methods as well as a three-lead ECG unit.
c. Sit-to-stand heart rate test using App and radial artery palpation.
If you’re looking for objective, evidence-based assessments to monitor autonomic function in your practice, this seminar is for you!
Neurology & Vagus Nerve Stimulation
This seminar will enable the practitioner to determine the misalignment associated with specific neurological dysfunctions.
Dr. Humberg will present the analysis portion of this seminar with a very specific and accurate method of locating not only the site of the neurological irritation (compression) but also the misalignment associated with that neurological dysfunction. We will look at muscular and visceral components, diagnosis, signs, symptoms plus you will learn manual and electrical ways of stimulating the vagus nerve.
You’ll learn more about treating such issues as IBS, Colitis, GI issues and more!
Analysis of the Stress Response Effects on Vertebral Subluxations
We live in a fast pace, stress filled society leading to cascade of potentially negative neurological effects on the body. The vertebral subluxation significantly adds to this allostatic load.
Thoroughly understanding these mechanisms allows the Chiropractor to have a greater appreciation of the various health issues that their patients are presenting with as well as the role that correcting the vertebral subluxation plays in helping them.
Dr. Humberg will be teaching very specific and accurate methods of analyzing vertebral subluxations in this hands-on program. You’ll learn the why and what we look in various forms of analysis, including neurological concepts, static palpation, motion palpation, various muscle testing, reflex testing, leg checks and more.
