FULLY EQUIPPED 2023

The Fully Equipped is a 12-hour seminar that brings together leaders in chiropractic and holistic pediatric medicine to train practitioners in comprehensive care for pregnant and pediatric patients. Presented by Claudia Anrig, DC and Lawrence B. Palevsky, MD, this event combines chiropractic adjusting protocols with conventional and holistic medical approaches to create a unified framework for family wellness.

Attendees will learn protocol-based care for pregnant and child patients, including adjusting techniques based on sympathetic and parasympathetic involvement using the Gonstead system, nutritional recommendations, and lifestyle management strategies. The curriculum covers common pediatric and prenatal conditions such as colic, asthma, ear infections, reflux, and growing pains, with examination procedures and diagnostic approaches.

Dr. Palevsky's portion of the seminar provides a comprehensive pediatric core curriculum covering acute illnesses including abdominal pain, allergies, ADD/ADHD, bed-wetting, conjunctivitis, fever, meningitis, and more. The curriculum emphasizes both conventional and holistic understanding of each condition, treatment approaches, and when to refer for conventional medical care. The final session focuses on preventive pediatric medicine, including digestive system review, nutrition for infants and children, and immune system strengthening through diet and environment.

This seminar is designed for chiropractors seeking to expand their practice to serve families more comprehensively, combining DC expertise with MD wellness perspectives for healthier families and extraordinary clinical results.
