Level 1

FOUNDATIONS

Functional Extremities Chiropractor – Foundations introduces chiropractors to the basics of the FEC system. Doctors will learn how to assess extremities at a local level, and advance towards a more regionally-focused approach. 

You will be taught specific muscle tests that correlate with specific joint complexes involving the 6 major extremity joints.

These consist of:

  • Upper Extremity – Shoulder, Elbow, Wrist
  • Lower Extremity – Hip, Knee, Ankle

You will also learn the 2 major Home Base tests – which will help to confirm your success in treating the functional weaknesses.

GOALS*: to build a strong clinical foundation of manual muscle testing skills, proficiency in interpretation of assessments, and basic competency with extremity adjusting.

Level 2

ADVANCED

Functional Extremities Chiropractor – Advanced builds on level 1, diving deeper into the six major joints with 2-3 additional adjustments for each complex.

Our screening tests will expand to include more joint complexes, such as the elbow, medial and lateral arches of the feet, and the subtalar joint. 

This course will also introduce:

  • Advanced upper & lower extremity flows
  • Common compensation patterns to recognize for more thorough clinical information

GOALS*: to become a more comprehensive chiropractic clinician through confidently recognizing and interpreting compensation patterns, refining adjusting technique, and better connecting dots between regional extremity complexes. 

Level 3

COMPLETE
