What s happening in courtroom cases related to whiplash, along with advice on proper documentation of procedures and treatment? Analysis and management of patient injuries from motor vehicle collisions. Topics Discussed February 2011: o Review and discussion of Biomechanical, neuro-physiological, and epidemiologic aspects of whiplash injuries. o Biomechanical definition of subluxation in patients with whiplash injuries. o Cervical lordosis abnormalities and health conditions: the link between whiplash injury and poor outcomes. o Understanding and differentiating subtle and complex ligament injuries of the cervical spine. o Litigation and documentation of whiplash injuries. o Review of new ICA whiplash injury guidelines. o Utilization and efficacy of a variety of Chiropractic examination and documentation procedures. o Contemporary treatment techniques for patients with whiplash injuries. Chiropractic Biophysics on Biomechanics of the Spine and Subluxation: To provide a university level, literature based current spinal biomechanics education. Review of types of loading of spinal biomechanics and provide stress and strain evaluations of spinal tissues during each type of spinal loading. Review mechanics of injury to the spine. Topics Discussed June o Certified Sole supports Foot Orthotics casting Workshop: The corrected (MASS) position of the foot is captured by a unique casting technique that utilizes a certain density of foam and a sequence of semi-weight-bearing impressions that emulate healthy stance-phase gait (gait-referenced casting). The lab positives made from this cast are never "castcorrected" to arbitrarily lower arch height as is common in the industry. The resulting shell fits the shape of the foot like a glove and is machine calibrated to have the right properties of flex and rigidity based on the patient's weight, foot flexibility and activity level. The goal is to significantly limit pronation, facilitate supination and yet flex just enough for comfort.

6 Kenneth M. Bahoora DC, PC Pg 6 This custom level of rigidity/flex makes us unique in the industry and uniquely effective at improving foot function. o The Neutral Position paradigm, developed by Merton Root, DPM, fails to address the critical and commonly absent function of adequate foot re-supination after heel lift in stance phase gait. The compensations that result from failed re-supination constitute the etiology of most common orthopedic foot pains and deformities. MASS Position Theory was developed by Dr. Edward Glaser and his biomechanics team to address the problem of resupination and achieve all of the key biomechanical goals during stance phase. Sole Supports is the only lab that follows MASS Position principles and fabrication technique. Topics Discussed July o Pediatric Spinal Analysis and Rehabilitation Study developmental anatomy of children and learn special examination methods to properly assess vertebral subluxation and abnormal development in pediatric patients.

Scoliotic Deformity Rehabilitation: C.B.P Topics Discussed August o Understand, evaluate, and manage scoliotic deformities in adolescents and adults o Recognize links between genetic triggers, biomechanical growth modulation, environmental risks, and age development o Identify risk factors for curve progression in both adolescents and adults o Evaluate cutoff curve values and age of onset as indicators for surgical consultation o Learn how mirror image methods (exercises, adjustments, traction) applied in unique, predetermined orders can improve specific categories of scoliotic curves o Explore new flexible bracing concepts and devices as well as rehabilitative procedures o Study curve variables and outcome assessments to determine management strategies and successful intervention o Apply comprehensive case management presentations to clinical application of course material o Survey and review research material supporting the utilization and efficacy of the course materials Thoracic Spine in Health and Disease: Topics Discussed February 2012.
