SEL0935 – Advanced Laboratory Evaluations: Nutrient Status Evaluations, Amino Acids <strong>and</strong> Organic Acids,<br />

Biological Effects of Pollutants <strong>and</strong> Detoxification Strategies. Connecting the Dots – Applying Functional<br />

medicine<br />

Units: 1<br />

Module 6 will bring in more advanced laboratory evaluations to aid in clinical evaluation. Amino acids, organic<br />

acids <strong>and</strong> neurotransmitter testing will be covered, which allow a more in-depth look at the individual<br />

biochemistry of each patient. Biotrans<strong>for</strong>mation <strong>and</strong> detoxification will be covered emphasizing the unique<br />

individual variances in detoxification ability that each person has, what the consequences may be of those<br />

variances, <strong>and</strong> how to support proper biotrans<strong>for</strong>mation <strong>and</strong> elimination through diet, lifestyle <strong>and</strong> nutritional<br />

therapies. It is extremely important that in this modern world of unparalleled chemical, electromagnetic <strong>and</strong><br />

stress pollution, that this be addressed fully in each patient.<br />

Finally, practical real-world tips on how to implement functional medicine into practice will be offered by<br />

faculty with years of experience with functional medicine. Case based learning will be utilized to emphasize<br />

the real-world of the practice of functional medicine. The emphasis will not be on “getting the right diagnosis”<br />

so much as ensuring a comprehensive <strong>and</strong> logical thought process is in place in the evaluation of individual<br />

cases. Discussion will include the limitations <strong>and</strong> challenges that functional medicine practitioners face in the<br />

current healthcare l<strong>and</strong>scape. Practice management will be addressed as poor office procedures may impede<br />

even the most astute practitioner <strong>and</strong> their desire to help those in need.<br />

Prerequisites: Minimum two of the following: SEL0917, SEL0924, SEL0925, SEL0929, SEL0930<br />

Restrictions: DC, DACM program only<br />

SEL0938 – Advanced Taping<br />

Units: 1<br />

The Advance Taping Selective will go in depth with the assessment of sports related injuries as well as<br />

treatment protocols with the emphasis in advance taping techniques. Taping techniques will include<br />

preventative, supportive, rehabilitative <strong>and</strong> protective techniques. Students must have competencies in<br />

anatomy, biomechanics <strong>and</strong> neuromusculoskeletal examination. There<strong>for</strong>e the completion of Taping<br />

Procedures Selective is essential to the participation to this class.<br />

Prerequisites: SEL0811, GA0102, GA0202, EB0201, FAB101, DX0310<br />

Restrictions: DC program only<br />

SEL0945 – Introduction to Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Manipulation<br />

Units: 1<br />

This course is an introductory, technique laboratory course <strong>for</strong> instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization<br />

(IASTM). Students will learn the history, scientific (anatomical <strong>and</strong> physiological) reasons, <strong>and</strong> the many<br />

variations of the instruments/IASTM. Students will also learn, through demonstrations <strong>and</strong> h<strong>and</strong>-on<br />

laboratory sessions, the basic strokes of various body regions. Indications, contraindications <strong>and</strong> potential<br />

adverse effects of IASTM will also be discussed. H<strong>and</strong>s-on application using the instrument will be stressed.<br />

Prerequisites: SEL0938<br />

Restrictions: DC program only<br />
