FIXING NECKS & HEADS – Chiropractic & Manual Therapy Assessment and Management for Cervical Spine (C0–7)

Course Overview

This advanced online certification course focuses on a complete, evidence-based approach to evaluating and treating cervical spine dysfunctions commonly caused by modern lifestyle stresses such as prolonged smartphone and screen use. The course integrates chiropractic principles, manual therapy, movement science, and regional interdependence concepts to provide a clinically effective framework for improving patient outcomes.

Across two days of live online training, participants will learn systematic assessment strategies, advanced mobilisation and manipulation techniques, soft-tissue methods, neuromuscular retraining, and clinical reasoning approaches supported by current research. The course emphasises the interconnected nature of the cervical spine with the thoracic spine, shoulder girdle, TMJ, and neural structures to deliver a holistic, patient-centred treatment model.

This USA-based advanced certification includes live interaction with global experts, updated evidence-based methods, and access to course recordings for revision and clinical integration.

1. Understanding cervical spine biomechanics (C0–C7) and their influence on global posture and movement.

2. Evidence-supported assessment of cervical dysfunctions related to prolonged smartphone use.

3. Regional interdependence between cervical, thoracic, and shoulder complexes in pain and mobility disorders.

4. Clinical application of the upper cervical (C0–C2) assessment for headaches and dizziness.

5. Evidence-based cervical joint mobilization and manipulation techniques for improving segmental motion.

6. Neurological screening and upper quarter neurodynamic testing for cervical conditions.

7. Myofascial and softtissue dysfunction mapping based on current research.

8. Thoracic spine mobility and its proven effect on cervical pain reduction and motor control.

9. Evidence-based management of cervicogenic headaches and neck-related dizziness.

10. Movement impairment patterns associated with text-neck and forward-head posture.

11. Evidence-guided muscle energy techniques for cervical and upper thoracic restrictions.

12. Integration of scapular stabilization in cervical rehabilitation based on research findings.

13. TMJ–cervical connection and its clinical implications for headache and jaw pain.

14. Updated research on cervical proprioception training for improving balance and neck stability.

15. Cervical motor control retraining using evidence-based activation patterns.

16. Clinical red flags and safety screening before cervical manual therapy interventions.

17. Research-supported strategies for managing chronic neck pain through multimodal approaches.

18. Application of neurodynamic mobilization for upper limb–related cervical symptoms.

19. Self-management and corrective exercises proven to improve long-term neck function.

20. Evidence-based clinical reasoning to determine

when cervical manipulation, mobilization, or exercise is indicated.
