Overview
This one-hour course introduces participants to the science-based principles of Neurofunctional Electroacupuncture, a contemporary, neuroanatomy-driven approach to peripheral nerve stimulation for the management of the pervasive "Pain with Movement" disorders that form the core of any physiotherapy practice.
This neurophysiology-based treatment approach complements physiotherapists’ current frameworks of practice by enhancing results on the areas of autonomic nervous system modulation, neuromotor control, and nociception & pain modulation.
