Agenda at a glance:

It is currently estimated that Forward Head Posture (FHP) occurs in 90% of the U.S. adult population and with our increasing use of hand-held digital devices FHP (also known as “tech-neck”) is beginning to affect children at an alarming rate.
Thanks in large part to the national media, the general public is not only becoming aware of this "tech-neck" epidemic but is also looking for a solution.
Did You Know – FHP is a major contributing factor in the most common conditions treated in your clinical practice today?
Acute symptoms caused by FHP can be temporarily relieved with traditional chiropractic manipulative therapy but true structural correction and subsequent long-term relief can only be achieved through the addition of extension traction therapy.
Similar to orthodontics changing the alignment of teeth, extension traction therapy changes soft tissues in a controlled fashion in order to allow the spine to regain its normal structural curve.
In this webinar, DC’s will learn how simply adding cervical extension traction therapy to any existing treatment protocol can significantly improve long-term outcomes in patients with the following symptoms related to FHP and reduced cervical lordosis:
Headaches, migraines, neck pain, upper back pain, TMJ disorders, thoracic outlet syndrome, shoulder pain/dysfunction, carpal tunnel syndrome, and more.
