Description

This 15-hour course, taught by Dr. Ayla Wolf, bridges Chinese medicine and clinical neuroscience to equip acupuncturists with the tools to assess and influence neurological function in modern clinical practice. As neurological disorders rise across age groups, practitioners must be able to apply functional neurology principles alongside traditional Chinese medicine. Topics include gait analysis, bedside neurological exams, brain region function, chronic pain neuroscience, and the role of acupuncture in modulating neurological outcomes. Ideal for acupuncturists seeking to expand their neurofunctional toolkit with both classical and modern approaches.
