Shockwave Therapy in Modern Musculoskeletal Care: Physiology, Technology, Evidence, and Patient Selection (1 CE for WI DC/CT/CRT)

Overview: This course examines the foundational science and clinical application of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy, beginning with shockwave physics and the differences between radial, focused electromagnetic, electrohydraulic, and piezoelectric systems. Participants will review the biologic effects of ESWT, including mechanotransduction, tissue remodeling, angiogenesis, pain modulation, and tendon, fascial, and chronic degenerative tissue healing. The course also covers current evidence supporting the use of ESWT for common musculoskeletal conditions such as tendinopathies and plantar fasciopathy, while emphasizing appropriate diagnosis, patient selection, contraindications, treatment parameter selection, and the integration of shockwave therapy into evidence-based conservative rehabilitation programs.

Soft Tissue Injury, Healing and Repair (6 CE for DC/CT/CRT)
Healing Happens in 3D: How Movement, Nutrition & Stress Shape Recovery

Overview: The annual cost of chronic pain in the U.S. is over $722 billion. Patients do not typically suffer from chronic pain because care is unavailable…they often suffer because care is incomplete. Most approaches focus only on pain or tissue damage and ignore the real drivers of recovery: Movement, Nutrition, and Stress. This program teaches providers how to accelerate healing from a multi-dimensional approach using a “Bio-Psycho-Social-Nutritional” model.

The Five Pillars of Chronic Pain: A Systems-Based Framework for Matching Patient Failures to Regenerative Care Strategies (1 CE for WI DC/CT/CRT)

Overview: This course examines the multidimensional nature of chronic pain through the Five Pillars of Chronic Pain framework: Structure & Remodeling, Circulation & Oxygenation, Energy & Recovery Capacity, Inflammation & Sensitization, and Regulation (Sleep, Stress, and Autonomic Function). Participants will learn to identify common biologic “failure patterns” that contribute to persistent pain and functional limitation while reviewing current evidence supporting comprehensive evaluation and treatment planning. The course explores the appropriate integration of conservative and regenerative interventions—including therapeutic exercise, load management, manual therapy, extracorporeal shockwave therapy, photobiomodulation, electromagnetic field therapies, oxygen-based strategies, nutrition, recovery optimization, and interdisciplinary co-management—to develop individualized, evidence-based care plans for patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain.

The Endogenous Incretin Edge: Leveraging Bitter Botanicals for Gut-Brain Signaling
(1 CE for WI DC/CT/CRT)

Overview: The rise of synthetic GLP-1 receptor agonists has brought clinical focus to the gut-brain axis as a primary lever for metabolic, glycemic, and appetite control. While monotherapy pharmaceutical interventions can bypass the body’s natural physiology and broader incretin signaling networks, bitter herbs have been found to activate endogenous incretin production, showing improvements in broader gut-brain signaling. This session explores the clinical application of extra-oral bitter taste receptors (TAS2Rs) distributed throughout the gastrointestinal tract and their physiological role in triggering endogenous GLP-1, PYY, and CCK secretion. We will critically examine the emerging clinical literature surrounding key bitter and metabolic phytocompounds—and attendees will leave with practical, evidence-informed strategies to leverage these botanical agents to enhance physiological satiety, optimize metabolic health, and offer sustainable gut-brain targeted interventions.

Thoughts, Traumas & Toxins: A Comprehensive Clinical Approach (12 CE for WI DC/CT/CRT + Nutrition)

Overview: This course is organized into three integrated modules: Thoughts, Traumas, and Toxins. The Thoughts module explores the physiology of stress, neuroendocrine function, upper cervical neurology, immune interactions, and nutritional approaches that support hormonal balance and reproductive health. The Traumas module examines injury biomechanics, common musculoskeletal dysfunction patterns, Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT) principles, lumbopelvic assessment, Category II evaluation and correction, and refinement of manual adjusting skills through supervised clinical application. The Toxins module reviews environmental and lifestyle exposures, epigenetic influences on health, hepatic physiology and endogenous detoxification pathways, and evidence-informed nutritional strategies that support cellular function and normal physiologic detoxification processes. Throughout the course, participants will integrate clinical reasoning, nutrition, and manual assessment techniques into comprehensive, patient-centered care planning.
