Are you seeing more patients than you had been with an invisible condition? Are your differential diagnostic skills proficient enough to detect them when present? Do you feel confident that you are doing everything you can for persons with the biopsychosocial layers within chronic pain, functional neurologic conditions, persistent post concussion, or even persistent postural perceptual disorders. Could it be that these syndromes and disorders are related because of common dysfunctional neuroplasticity? If you feel that you have all of the answers to the questions posed above…then this course is not for you.

If you are not satisfied, but want to learn more, then be prepared for an enlightening application that delves into the neurophysiology and more importantly APPLICATIONS for all of these conditions.

This on-demand course is a recording of the live ZOOM course presented on April 23, 2022.
