news THOMpSON TECHNIqUE 2012 SEMINARS The Thompson Technique team is returning in 2012 to bring chiropractors informative lectures and hands on instruction in the Thompson chiropractic technique. Seminars are scheduled in Toronto, Ontario, Trois-Rivieres, Quebec and for the first time, Argentina, South America. CEUs will be available in certain jurisdictions. The Thompson Technique was created by Dr. Clay Thomp-son, and has been refined into a practical chiropractic system that offers patients a number of benefits as well as a safe and comprehensive treatment option. The Thompson Seminar Series and certification program has been designed by Dr. John Minardi to optimize and standard-ize the method in which Thompson Technique is delivered around the world. The classic technique has been updated with new criteria and adjustments, specifically designed to fill in any gaps that existed previously, and scientifically advanced with the latest research in the fields of biomechanics and neu-rology. Thus, each practitioner will learn how to perform the technique correctly, and understand why. The seminar series has added four assistant instructors, each with their own unique specialities, to optimize the learning environment. New equipment, research, and teach-ing mediums are being introduced this year, with the intent to maximize the learning experience. Certified Thompson practitioners are required to attend one Thompson Seminar Series every two years to keep their certification current and stay up to date with the latest ad-vances in the techniques. 2012 DATES AND LOCATIONS Toronto, Ontario Holiday Inn and Suites,7095 Woodbine Ave., Markham, ON.
