Carrick Institute – Advanced Chiropractic Techniques

Carrick Institute – Advanced Chiropractic Techniques

Develop advanced chiropractic manipulation skills through the integration of neurological assessment, movement analysis, and evidence-informed manual therapy.

Led by Dr. Frederick R. Carrick, this 8-credit-hour course explores neurologically guided spinal and extremity manipulation, helping clinicians connect objective neurological findings with clinical decision-making and targeted treatment strategies.

The program combines traditional chiropractic adjusting techniques with functional neurology principles, emphasizing neurological examination, clinical reasoning, and the evaluation of treatment responses.

Course Overview

Advanced Chiropractic Techniques examines the relationship between chiropractic manipulation and nervous system function, including central nervous system activity, autonomic regulation, and motor control.

Participants learn how to use neurological assessment findings to guide the selection, location, and timing of chiropractic adjustments.

The training covers:

• Neurological mechanisms underlying chiropractic manipulation
• Central nervous system function and autonomic regulation
• Pupillary light reflex testing
• Gait analysis and movement observation
• Identification of neurological asymmetries
• Neurologically guided adjustment selection
• Advanced cervical manipulation
• Rib manipulation techniques
• Sacroiliac joint procedures
• Extremity manipulation
• Monitoring neurological responses to treatment
• Evidence-informed clinical decision-making

What You’ll Learn

• Explain neurological mechanisms underlying chiropractic manipulation and central nervous system function.
• Utilize pupillary light reflex testing and gait analysis for objective patient assessment.
• Apply neurological reasoning to determine optimal adjustment locations and timing strategies.
• Perform advanced cervical, rib, sacroiliac, and extremity manipulation procedures.
• Identify functional neurological asymmetries through movement observation and examination.
• Integrate objective neurological findings into evidence-informed treatment planning.
• Evaluate neurological responses following manual interventions.
