This is a 4-hour audiovisual course presented by Satya Sardonicus, DC, CACCP

Hour 1

  • Discuss an overview of Cerebellar Tonsillar Ectopia
  • Discuss the statistical incidence and association with head and neck trauma
  • Identify associated and confounding Factors
  • Recognize in clinical practice the common signs and symptoms of CTE
  • Refer for appropriate evaluation and diagnostic imaging for patients with this condition

Hour 2

  • Appraise Updated Biomechanics: The Biotensegrity Model
  • Describe the tensegrity model as it relates to biomechanics from a cellular to organism level.
  • Define fascia, including anatomical lines and physical properties.
  • Describe the Dural Fascial Kinetic Chain and its relationship to Adverse Mechanical Tension
  • Describe the clinical relevance of biotensegrity, and how to apply these updated architectural and biomechanical principles to the delivery of chiropractic adjustments.
  • Identify the different types of Adverse Mechanical Tension affecting patients
  • Discuss the relationship between fascia and CNS function, including both direct mechanical tension and embedded proprioceptive/nociceptive feedback mechanisms influencing autonomic neurological function.

Hour 3

  • Explain CNS distortion: Chronic Stress
  • Summarize the impact of chronic stress on CNS processing.
  • List Common types of dysautonomia
  • Recognize common signs and symptoms of dysautonomia during initial patient presentation.
  • Explain the diagnostic process for dysautonomia, including both testing and interpretation.
  • Summarize clinical considerations for the patient with sympatheticotonia.

Hour 4

  • Recognize CSF hydrodynamics and cranial anatomy, and related symptomatology.
  • Recognize and describe the common signs and symptoms of abnormal hydrodynamics and Adverse Mechanical Tension (AMT) affecting cranial and dural dynamics.
  • Refer for appropriate evaluation and testing procedures for CSF and cranial dynamics.
  • Perform modified cranial and fascial release techniques
