Never guess again with your extremity care.
Dear Doc and Student,
Most chiropractors stop at Chapter 20 of Gonstead Chiropractic Science and Art.
That’s where extremity care is introduced — but not mastered.
Beyond The Spine was built to change that.
This is not another seminar filled with theory and scattered techniques.
It’s a precision-driven, results-based training designed to help you confidently analyze, list, and adjust extremities using advanced Gonstead principles — while building a stronger, more profitable practice.
Our 2-day intensive is focused on one outcome:
👉 Helping you get better results, faster — with more certainty in every adjustment you deliver
Because at the end of the day, patients don’t care how much you know.
They care about one thing:
Results.
And results create everything else:
Better retention
More referrals
Stronger reputation
Increased revenue
Inside this training, we break down extremity care through a structured system built on Gonstead fundamentals and influenced by the clinical contributions of Dr. Mark Werking.
You’ll learn how to:
Analyze extremities using the Gonstead criteria — with precision and confidence
Take and interpret extremity X-rays with clinical clarity
Identify the key biomechanical faults most chiropractors overlook
Apply specific adjusting protocols that help patients recover faster
Integrate extremity care into your practice in a way that increases case value and patient retention
Position yourself as the go-to extremity expert in your community
This is not passive learning.
It’s a hands-on, clinically driven application — so every adjustment you make after this weekend is more precise, more certain, and more effective.
And when your certainty increases, your practice grows.
If you’re ready to elevate your clinical standard, improve patient outcomes, and build a practice known for results—this is where it happens.
Let’s raise the standard, together.
