Integrated Neurological Therapy - Part 1

By Dr. BRANDON BROCK

The Integrated Neurological Therapy (INT) program is designed to offer an increase in depth of knowledge for the Chiropractor so they can offer hope and vitality to those that are suffering, vulnerable, injured or ill.

Offering sound dietary and nutritional advice for a basis of health is important for joint and brain function. Understanding the segmental and neurological impact from receptor-based therapy (Chiropractic Adjustments) is crucial to patients in need of manual therapy. An understanding of skeletal biomechanics that is appropriate for optimal motion and brain response is the synergistic integrative that modern and evolving Chiropractic care is moving towards. This class will lead attendees in that direction.
