ADN: Foundational
Phoenix, AZ

This 27-hour, 2 or 3-day seminar covers the practical aspects of foundational dry needling to the entire neuromusculoskeletal system. This includes the craniocervical, upper extremity, upper/lower thorax, abdominopelvic, and lower extremity systems. The primary emphasis will be on the practitioner effectively placing needles to treat neuromusculoskeletal conditions. Inclusive to this will be discussions on applicable randomized trial evidence, safety aspects, needle size/diameter considerations, and treatment paradigms. IMMT’s emphasis will be on applying any treatment paradigm (including acupuncture trials) to the relevant anatomy affected. However, course participants will not be taught how to practice Oriental Medicine in any capacity. When taken with ADN: Advanced, this course will satisfy all relevant requirements to practice dry needling in compliance with allowing U.S. state physical therapy practice acts.
