Chirodontics One - Introduction to Chirodontics

| Other Chirodontic Courses | Registration | Calendar | 
A Multi-Disciplinary Approach to Cranial Orthopedics


Chirodontics®  One is the first course in the Chirodontics®  series.  It is designed for both the Dentist and the Chiropractor/Structural Practitioner.  It is also the pre-requisite for most of the other Chirodontic courses.  Here we cover the main concepts involved in Chirodontics®  diagnosis and treatment.  Postural assessment and determining “ascending vs. descending” influences are covered in lecture as well as workshops.  Chirodontics® One is also an excellent introduction to Cranial-Dental Orthopaedics.  Cranial anatomy and the various cranial distortion patterns are discussed and you will learn some basic cranial releases in a hands-on cranial workshop.  In this course, we also learn the Dental strategies for diagnosing and correcting these distortions, and how to incorporate these strategies into an efficient Chiro-Dental team syntax.
