Over the last decade there has been a remarkable increase in the number of scientific conferences and societies that focus almost exclusively on tumor metabolism and growth factors associated with metabolic signaling. Of particular relevance is the intersection of metabolism with epigenetic control and metabolic reprogramming of aberrant signaling pathways that promote the Warburg effect. This renewed interest in the cause and consequences of the Warburg effect has invigorated cancer research and promises to redirect our efforts down a path that will translate into more effective cancer treatment and prevention strategies.

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.
