Hi Everyone,

I have received numerous requests to run the multimodal management of concussion course for a 2nd time this year.

The format will remain the same, consisting of two 3-day (25 hour) modules, hosted in Docklands (Melbourne, Victoria). Dates are:
Fri-Sun August 23-25 for the first module
Fri-Sun October 18-20 for the second module

Please note: spaces for the 2nd course are going to be strictly limited to 25 delegates only.

If you would to attend the modules in Melbourne (or know a colleague who would like to attend) please fill in the expressions of interest form at www.optimizecpd.com.au
Further details regarding the course outline can be found there.

* Those who submit an EOI will receive 24 hour advance notice once tickets become available.

The multimodal management of concussion course is now open for registration. There are still some spaces available (Thank you to all those who were the early registrants!). Space is limited. Please secure your place via the link: https://www.optimizecpd.com.au Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Thank you to all those who have submitted an Expression of Interest (EOI) for the Multimodal Management of Concussion program in Melbourne.

We are giving those who expressed their interest advance notice to be able to register 48 hours before the program is available to the general public. Please check your email inbox tomorrow for the link (which will allow you to register for the program)

Please note that there are only 40 spots available in the program and we have received more than that number of EOIs, so spots will fill up fast.

Thank you for your interest, and we look forward to welcoming everyone at the first module in April.

In recent years we have received numerous requests to host a professional development program on the assessment and management of sport-related concussion.

As this is a rapidly expanding area of healthcare research and practice, we have put together a program to help healthcare professionals learn to assess and manage these cases in clinic, so that we can deepen our expertise and knowledge in order to better serve these patients. Management of concussed athletes remains an area of clinical practice in great need of well-trained practitioners, and we believe sports chiropractors, and other allied health professions, are ideally positioned to help these cases.

The format will be two 3-day (25 hour) modules, hosted in Docklands (Melbourne, Victoria). Dates are waiting to be confirmed but we are looking at a Fri-Sun in late April for the first module, and a June date for the second.

Spaces will be limited due to the capacity of the venue, so to register your interest please fill in the form at www.optimizecpd.com.au. Further details regarding the outline of the course can be found there.

WE CAN NO LONGER PRACTICE PHYSICAL REHABILITATION IN THE MODERN ERA WITHOUT CONSIDERATION OF BRAIN.

Various brain and limbic system structures have been implicated in processing noxious information. The anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), is a region long thought to modulate higher order processing of noxious input related to the affective/motivational component of pain. However, recent research is even suggesting that more than just affective aspects of pain, the ACC has the capacity to modulate pain intensity itself!

Interestingly, it appears that the ACC has an important relationship with the peripheral nervous system in a manner that is likely relevant to conditions that are commonly encountered in physical rehabilitation practice: The ACC has been shown to be strongly activated in peripheral nerve injury and ACC lesions have been shown to selectively decrease negative affect associated with neuropathy-induced hypersensitivity.
