  Session details

  This 2-hour course bridges the gap between passive care and performance-focused rehabilitation through the lens of professional sports chiropractic. Drawing on case experiences from Major League Baseball spring training, the instructor will demonstrate how corrective movement strategies—typically used with elite athletes—can be effectively applied in everyday clinical settings. Attendees will learn functional screening tools, simple corrective protocols, and active care integration methods that require minimal equipment. The course is designed for chiropractors looking to elevate outcomes, patient engagement, and movement-based care. Practical, immediately applicable tools will be shared to use in any practice.

  Learning Objectives:

  1. Describe how corrective exercise improves functional outcomes and bridges the gap between rehab and performance.
  2. Demonstrate functional movement screens that identify common movement dysfunctions in active patients.
  3. Integrate simple, clinic-ready corrective exercise protocols into chiropractic care without the need for a full gym setup.
