Tailored Training

CDI often conducts specific training, which is tailored to the needs of certain groups. CDI has extensive experience in developing customised training and has delivered programs across Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia in cooperation with numerous industry bodies. For example:

  • Tailored training programs for chiropractic students (CDI conducts tailored Clinical Master Classes in the neurology of posture, spinal stability, balance, spinal alignment and clinical diagnosis for chiropractic students. Events are usually held in conjunction with educational institutions and are often commissioned by student associations)
  • Tailored training programs in functional neurology for various consortiums of chiropractors (CDI can develop custom training programs to meet the specific needs of chiropractic groups, such as practice consortiums and the membership of various associations)
  • Tailored training programs for medical practitioners and other health care professionals (CDI develops and delivers specific programs on advances in chiropractic treatment applications, functional spinal assessment, sensorimotor control and other clinical topics for medical practitioners and other health care professionals)

What Sort of Topics Are Covered?

CDI's functional neurology programs have been designed to increase your skills in clinical and functional neurology. Not just medical neurology, but the neurology that underpins everyday practice and the effectiveness of chiropractic treatment modalities.

All of CDI's training programs are practically based. The goal of the face-to-face workshop sessions is to enable you to return to your practice and immediately assess your patients with a new level of clarity, irrespective of what techniques you use. It is now well accepted that chiropractic treatment exerts the majority of its effects through the modulation of neurological activity. A human being is a complex neurological system - learn to understand a patient's neurological function and influence it like never before.

A binding theme across all of CDI's training programs is professional development across areas that will:

  • Give you an ability to explain the potential therapeutic effects of chiropractic at a range of functional levels - from the simplest mechanical effects on musculoskeletal tissues to the most advanced neurological effects on brain function and human performance
  • Refine your skills for assessing a patient's neurological function
  • Develop a clearer understanding than ever before of spinal joint lesions and how the adjustment actually works
  • Give you a more advanced understanding of the neurological effects of the treatment that you apply
  • Give you a more sophisticated set of tools for assessing a patient's neurological health and objectively measuring their progress
  • Help you to build your reputation based upon clinical results and decrease the need for external marketing
