Educational Objectives Hour 1:
Describe layered components of restrictions including updated osseous, muscular, and fascial relational anatomy.
Describe how to palpate muscle tension versus fascial adhesion versus fascial tension lines.
Differentiate between osseous restriction, muscular tension, and fascial restriction as they relate to spinal motion restriction.
Use palpatory findings to select technique application for adjustments that last longer by addressing mechanical root cause and encourage parasympathetic dominance at rest.
Hour 2:
Describe the difference between static misalignments and dynamic spinal restrictions (joints incapable of full range of motion).
Differentiate with palpation both static and dynamic spinal restrictions.
Describe neurological information gathered from palpation, including dysesthesia, hyperesthesia, reactive erythema, temperature differentials, and other signs.
Palpate the patient with chronic pain, trauma history, and/or sympatheticotonia without triggering sympathetic bracing.
Hour 3:
Describe the Oxford Grading Scale for manual muscle testing.
Describe interpretation of manual muscle testing findings, including differentials for clinical significance of findings other than normal.
Demonstrate manual muscle testing of major postural muscles.
Apply manual muscle testing as pre- and post-clinical intervention measures during adjustment visits and to track change during review examination.
Hour 4:
Describe the relevance of clinical history as it relates to chronic stress and trauma.
List specific questions to assess for sympatheticotonia.
List specific questions to assess for indications of head and neck trauma
Determine appropriate individualized examination procedures based on history answers.

Recognize patterns of and describe gestalt clinical interpretation for sympatheticotonia.
Recognize patterns of and describe gestalt clinical interpretation for adverse mechanical tension in the Fascial Kinetic Chain
