SUMMARY:Advanced Neurologic Dry Needling for Pain Management and Performance Enhancement
DESCRIPTION:Description \n\n\n\nThe Advanced Neurologic Dry Needling for Pain Management and Performance Enhancement certification course (3 days) is designed for licensed healthcare professionals who have the desire to elevate their treatment of neuromusculoskeletal pain and dysfunction. 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

SUMMARY:Neurologic Dry Needling for Pain Managment & Sports Rehabilitation
DESCRIPTION:Neurological Dry Needling for Pain Management & Sports Rehabilitation (Foundation course) \n\n\n\nThis comprehensive 3-day foundation course equips participants with the essential knowledge\, safety protocols\, and clinical skills required to effectively assess and deliver dry needling treatments for painful neuromuscular conditions. Unlike other programs that separate the body into upper and lower regions\, requiring multiple courses\, our approach enables you to treat the entire body after one course. \n\n\n\nOur system is built on the principles of Neurological Dry Needling\, emphasizing soft tissue needling techniques that aim to normalize neurogenic inflammation\, improve microcirculation\, and reduce soft tissue guarding. We utilize a peripheral nerve mapping model\, which provides a logical and systemic approach\, allowing practitioners to needle not just the muscles\, but the entire neurological system. \n\n\n\nParticipants will practice a variety of needling techniques\, including superficial needling\, rotation\, and pistoning\, with a focus on the proper indications for each. Our approach targets all sensory-innervated structures\, such as tendons and ligaments\, while integrating electrical nerve stimulation. This comprehensive approach ensures a broad range of safe and effective treatment options for clinical application. \n\n\n\nPURPOSE \n\n\n\nThe purpose of the Neurologic Dry Needling for Pain Management and Sports Rehabilitation Course is to obtain knowledge and clinical skills necessary to diagnose and treat soft tissue pain and dysfunction.  This 3-day applied-learning course combines interactive lectures and practical hands-on labs. Students participate in several practical sessions\, which are intended to provide feedback to students regarding their comprehension of the key concepts and needling techniques. These practical lab sessions enable students to critically self-evaluate if additional instruction or self-study is needed for clinical competency. \n\n\n\nCONTENT \n\n\n\nThe Neurologic Dry Needling for Pain Management and Sport Rehabilitation course covers: \n\n\n\n\nMultiple dry needling insertion techniques are practiced that range from basic to advanced\, with a majority of them being virtually pain-free.\n\n\n\nDetailed\, tried and tested needling safety techniques and contraindications for dry needling therapy to avoid human error in clinical practice.\n\n\n\nModifiable dry needling system that easily adapts to clinical practice and to the specific needs of each patient.\n\n\n\nSystemic Homeostatic trigger point concept that addresses the physiological\, neurologic\, and mechanical aspects of pain and dysfunction.\n\n\n\nParavertebral neuro-trigger points addressing the postural and viscero-somatic connections\n\n\n\nSymptomatic neuro-trigger points that highlight the neuro-myofa\n\n\n\n\nLEARNING OBJECTIVES \n\n\n\n\nCorrectly identify and apply proper precautions related to bloodborne pathogens in the clinical practice of dry needling therapy from the course pre-reading.\n\n\n\nIndependently identify and apply dry needling to each of the three types of trigger points (homeostatic\, paravertebral\, and symptomatic) in a given case study.\n\n\n\nIntegrate the physiological mechanisms of needling when developing a treatment plan for a given musculoskeletal condition.\n\n\n\nDiscuss the prevention and management of adverse responses to dry needling based on OSHA requirements with 100% accuracy during the case study.\n\n\n\nIndependently apply dry needling treatment safely into musculoskeletal neuro-trigger points during lab sessions.\n\n\n\nIndependently evaluate and treat soft tissue and neurogenic dysfunctions relating to a given neuromusculoskeletal condition.\n\n\n\nCorrectly defend the IDN system for treatment of musculoskeletal pain based on the unique neurology and physiology of neuro-trigger points.\n\n\n\nIndependently integrate the IDN system into the participant’s physical therapy practice in relation to current clinical guidelines.\n\n\n\n\nUSE THE CODE: IDNADVANCED200 to get $200 OFF!
