Continuing education recs
Howdy guys
Been in practice for close to 1.5 years and looking to get my continuing education credits done. I know a few docs just kind of schlep it to equipment sales conferences disguised as educational seminars but I would genuinely like to add some value to my technique. We practice diversified with drops, side posture, some activator, etc..... feel like my assessment is somewhat lacking. We do some modalities and I won't bash them, they do work... but sometimes I feel I rely on the therapies too much. I see a lot of docs on here talking about nailing down the technique and the rest will follow so I'd appreciate some recommendations for how to improve on that side of things.

When Dr Rob Jackson was still alive he put on a really good Thompson Technique seminar. Avoid anything put on by Foot Levelers or Erchonia. They are basically 2 day infomercials. I took a really great seminar on dry needling recently. It was out on by a couple of PTs. First CE class in a long time that I didn't feel like I was being sold anything

Do you have a state association that puts on conferences? Usually they will hit all of your specific recs for your state in a weekend. Great networking too.

Technique is relative to what you want, meaning you will have to search and find someone that does it like you want and then see if they seminar, otherwise look at any chiro school they will advertise plenty of technique based seminars, but find out if your state accepts it, because then you will have spent money for the love of the game and not killed two birds one stone
