Part B - MDT: Cervical and Thoracic Spine Registration Questions



Following Part A, this course examines how McKenzie applies to the cervical and thoracic spines, utilizing the same teaching format.

Effective January 2012, Part B will begin with a new comprehensive online session, followed by a three day live course. Having an online component allows you to work at your own convenience and learn from an interactive blend of visuals, audio and video, but still participate in the live course that is so integral to the McKenzie educational programming.
