Course Description:
This course will forever change the way you view spinal and extremity manipulation.

Adjusting Techniques in Functional Neurology is a dynamic, hands-on program that teaches you how to apply chiropractic adjustments to influence brain function—safely, strategically, and with neurological intent. You’ll gain a deep understanding of how specific adjustments can optimise the central nervous systems’ integrated state by modulating sensory input.

If you’re ready to move beyond “hit & hope” adjusting and instead make each adjustment neurologically meaningful, this course is your next move.

What You’ll Learn:

✔️ The 5-minute neurological exam to identify functional neurological / postural imbalance patterns.

✔️ When, where, and why to use adjustments for specific brain regions

✔️ How to layer and couple adjustments with soft tissue techniques for maximum brain impact

✔️ Practical application of  multiple advanced adjusting techniques for spine and extremities

Hands-On Techniques Include:

• Coupled cervical manipulations                           
• 1st rib and T1 mobilisation
• Upper cervical adjustments
• Sacroiliac joint corrections
• Upper & lower extremity neuro-based adjustments
• Fast stretch techniques for cerebellar and cortical targeting

Who Should Attend:
Chiropractors and manual therapists seeking to elevate their adjusting skills with brain-based precision and clinical purpose.

Why This Course?
✅ Turns adjusting into a neurological tool, not just a mechanical one

✅ Grounded in functional neurology and neuroscience literature

✅ Designed for immediate integration into clinical practice

Treat with purpose. Adjust with strategy.

Enrol now and learn to manipulate the brain, not just the spine.

Dr Mark Yacoub Bio

After 7 years in practice, I was seriously considering making a career change. Despite attending seminars and learning many new techniques over the years, I was still not getting the clinical results that I had hoped for, I thought Chiropractic was better.

My frustration stemmed from two main reasons:

• Not understanding why patients kept relapsing and
• Not understanding why certain techniques worked on some patients but not
  on others with seemingly similar issues

It became a “Hit & Hope” clinic as I still did not have an overall strategy.

This all changed immediately after attending an introductory seminar to Functional Neurology –(much like this seminar) – 15 years ago, it was a ‘game changer’ moment. That seminar gave me a much clearer understanding of the functioning of the Nervous System with particular emphasis on the impact it has on the control of Posture, Balance, Coordination and Movement.

I went on to enhance my understanding by continually attending countless Functional Neurology seminars with the Carrick Institute over the years and have also completed the excellent Functional Neurology Orthopaedic Rehabilitation FNOR seminar series.

Using Functional Neurology as my clinical foundation enables me to quickly
and easily identify the root of a patient’s problem and customise a care plan
which provides optimum results. It is the method that I have been utilising and
training my associates to use since 2012.

I can honestly say that I have never enjoyed my work more than I do now, to
the point that I can’t see myself retiring, even after 23 years in practice.
