This one-of-a-kind course provides original information that can only be acquired through our institute. The participant will be provided with a deeper understanding of the physiologic and therapeutic effects of dry needling. Negative effects of neurogenic inflammation and microcirculation abnormalities will be discussed\, enhancing participants’ understanding of applying dry needling using the peripheral nerve mapping concept. Emphasis is placed on nerve entrapments\, compression\, and areas of irritation that drive the resultant trigger points commonly seen in clinical practice. Advanced neurological and musculoskeletal concepts and needling techniques will be presented and practiced to address these dysfunctions in this primarily lab-based course.  The integration of electrical nerve stimulation (ENS) will be emphasized as an important adjunct to dry needling treatment.  Focus is on assuring safe and effective advanced dry needling skills with sound clinical decision-making. \n\n\n\nPrerequisite: Completion of the IDN Neurologic Dry Needling for Pain Management & Sports Rehabilitation Course. \n\n\n\nPurpose \n\n\n\nThe purpose of the Advanced Neurologic Dry Needling Course is to obtain advanced clinical decision-making and confidence to assess and treat all neuromusculoskeletal conditions.  Upon successful completion of the Advanced course\, the IDN participant is elevated to a Certified Integrative Dry Needling practitioner (CIDN).   Participants are required to complete a pre-course multiple-choice assessment based on the foundation course material and clinically relevant questions. At the conclusion of the Advanced course\, participants are required to pass a practical certification examination based on a clinical case study demonstrating clinical reasoning and decision-making related to the Advanced course concepts. A passing score of 80% is required to be considered Certified in Integrative Dry Needling (CIDN). \n\n\n\nContent \n\n\n\nThis is all original content that can only be acquired through the IDN institute. \n\n\n\n\nAdvanced dry needling techniques for prevention\, pain management\, and optimizing human performance.\n\n\n\nUnderstanding of the anatomy\, neurology\, and physiology of microcirculation\, soft tissue healin\,g and remodeling.  \n\n\n\nClinical techniques for examination and management of peripheral nerve inflammation\, radiculopathy\,  and neuromuscular dysfunction\,\n\n\n\nAssessment of imbalance of the neuromusculoskeletal system and dry needling techniques for rebalancing homeostasis\,\n\n\n\nPre and post-symptom treatment in athletic performance\,\n\n\n\nHow peripheral nervous system inflammation influences musculoskeletal dysfunction and how to manage it with Integrative Dry Needling\n\n\n\nReview of evidence-based research data. \n\n\n\n\nCOURSE HOURS: \n\n\n\nFriday – 7:30 am registration – Course: 8:00 am to 6:00pmSaturday – 8:00 am to 6:00 pmSunday – 8:00 am to 4-5:00 pm URL:https://www.spoonerpt.com/events/advanced-neurologic-dry-needling-for-pain-management-and-performance-enhancement/ LOCATION:Spooner Phoenix\, 5040 N 15th Ave Suite 401\, Phoenix\, Arizona\, 85015\, United States CATEGORIES:Continuing Education ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://www.spoonerpt.com/wp-content/uploads/Phoenix-AZ-2026-advanced.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Phoenix:20260505T184500 DTEND;TZID=America/Phoenix:20260505T200000 DTSTAMP:20260425T184034 CREATED:20260425T141524Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260425T142605Z UID:10000170-1778006700-1778011200@www.spoonerpt.com SUMMARY:Improving Confidence with Cervical Mobilizations & Manipulations DESCRIPTION:STUDENTS AND THERAPISTS\n\n\n\nPlease join us for hands-on practice on“Improving Confidence with Cervical Mobilizations & Manipulations”\n\n\n\nAn evening of mentorship focused on mobilization and manipulation techniques of the cervical spine. \n\n\n\nTUESDAY\, May 5th @ 6:45PM \n\n\n\nIF YOU PLAN TO ATTEND\, PLEASE COMPLETE THE RSVP FORM BELOW \n\n\n\nOverview: \n\n\n\n\nDiscussion on clinical decision-making for interventions\n\n\n\nUnderstanding mobilization and manipulation techniques of the cervical spine\n\n\n\nTargeted hands-on practice with multiple rounds of feedback\n\n\n\n\nFormat: In Person\n\n\n\nAudience: \n\n\n\nAre you excited to discuss and develop your practice and your clinical reasoning skills?
