Overview

The Knee Chest table has been used for more than 100 years by Dr’s BJ Palmer and Clarence Gonstead.  With no cushion under the abdomen, this is the ultimate table for adjusting P-A!  You will learn a variety of contacts and applications for using the Knee Chest Table. 

What's Different?

Chiropractic technique is traditionally taught as a static "set-up" and that the patient should be at "tension" when they are getting adjusted.  We change the paradigm to Relaxation, Balance and Timing, so that when a patient gets adjusted it feels more like a warm knife in butter!

A unique series of Exercises replace the "set-up" model and attendees leave with a variety of Drills that can be used to develop their skills.

Why a Five-Hour Course?

5 hour blocks of training and instruction allow a focus and attention on a given topic and create a bridge from learning too much new information all at once (so you don't know where to start) to being able to apply what you've learned immediately into your skills development and practice.

This course is part of the Gonstead Adjusting Academy series.
