This course will cover current best evidence in the physical therapy management of neck pain. Laboratory sessions will focus on the safe and effective delivery of thrust and non-thrust manipulation to the cervical spine, cervicothoracic spine, and upper ribs. Additional labs will cover evaluation and treatment of the thoracic spine, management of cervical radiculopathy, upper […]
SMT-2 is a two-day (15 contact hours) course with an emphasis on upper cervical, mid-cervical and upper thoracic spine dysfunction, as it relates to cervicogenic headaches, whiplash associated disorders, and idiopathic neck pain diagnosis and management. Advanced HVLA thrust manipulation techniques for the occipito-atlantal (C0/1), atlanto-axial (C1/2), C2/3 articulations (in supine and sitting positions) along […]
This course will cover current best evidence in the use of thrust manipulation to treat common clinical syndromes. Laboratory sessions will focus on the safe and effective delivery of thrust manipulations to the lumbar spine, sacroiliac joint, thoracic spine, and cervical spine. Lecture material will focus on the developing body of literature regarding safety of […]
This two-day spinal manipulation course includes 70% hands-on practical training and 30% didactic lecture instruction. This spinal manipulation course focuses on the technical and practical hands-on skills required to perform high-velocity low-amplitude thrust spinal manipulation techniques in a competent and safe manner for all of the spinal regions. We have taught more PTs, MDs and […]

This two-day course is comprised of 80% practical and 20% didactic training. The primary focus will be on the development of the psychomotor skills needed to safely and effectively deliver thrust joint manipulation (TJM) to all remaining diarthrodial and select synarthrodial joints. This will include techniques directed to the temporomandibular joint, the anterior rib articulations, […]

Completion of SMT-1 is required prior to taking EMT-1 because musculoskeletal extremity pain and dysfunction rarely occur in isolation and have been found in the most recent literature to be frequently associated with underlying spinal dysfunction. This two-day (15 contact hours) technique-based course will emphasize the actual physical delivery of high-velocity low-amplitude (HVLA) thrust manipulation […]
