CLA's Advanced Subluxation Training (AST)
8 Modules to boost confidence, win debates, and clearly grasp the value of chiropractic care!
WHY AST?
 |
Intellectual Ammunition: Chiropractors throughout the world need to stand up for their practice and their patients on a rational, scientific basis. Chiropractors who address subluxation in their practices should not live in fear of being attacked. |
 |
Credibility: Because the chiropractic profession has been under attack by organized medicine in the past and modern day ‘skeptics' currently, we suffer from ‘negative brand equity'...meaning the general population doesn't get chiropractic or think they have a reason to go to one – and further when they do come and you recommend extended care for addressing subluxation, patients many times don't embrace it. Building credibility is a critical part of today's strategy for the DC to break through to heightened success and more fun in practice! |
 |
Certainty: A big challenge for DC's is that the vertebral subluxation and the corresponding models of human health are vague and fuzzy in their minds. The result is that they feel a degree of dread and uncertainty in going to market and offering this service. A boost in confidence when you clearly connect the dots related to vertebral subluxation is a game changer that leads to more fun, less stress, and more profit! |
The vertebral subluxation (VS) has been a paradox in the culture of chiropractic since its inception. On one hand, the concept of VS was the basis on which D.D. Palmer founded the profession of chiropractic. On the other, there are several chiropractic schools that don't allow the use of the term in their clinics and organizations in the profession that recommend we abandon the term...and in extreme cases the very idea of it. It has gotten so ridiculous that we now have some regulatory bodies describing the subluxation as a historical construct and they forbid the use of the term in chiropractic marketing and advertising. CLA would not stand for this absurdity.
The evidence supporting and validating VS has grown significantly over recent years. Drs. Kent and Gentempo have been reviewing the literature monthly on the science portion of their extremely popular and world-famous On Purpose audio series. Dr. Kent, one of our profession's most valuable intellectual assets, has now assembled
the most important and up-to-date course on vertebral subluxation and you can experience it on line at
your convenience!
What's in AST?
Unfortunately, even though there is a ton of compelling evidence for vertebral subluxation, access to this information is scarce. Very scarce. Some pieces are taught in some places, but the comprehensive case for VS is not...
until now!
AST is an online, 8 module training course that covers the critical, must know topics related to VS. (And if you act now, you will receive a phenomenal 9th bonus module at no extra charge!). Accompanying each module are 2 key things: 1) Action Guides. These are effective notes that keep you engaged as you absorb each module.
2) Enrichment Notes. These are reference articles for your personal library that provide additional information. These will come in very handy when you want to do a quick review or put together presentations of your own. Here is a brief outline of the modules:
| Module | Description | ||||||||
|
Overview and History Learn how the care you provide changes lives and review the extraordinary relevant history of our great profession.

Epigenetics Perhaps one of the hottest topics in science and healthcare today. Learn how lifestyle changes and chiropractic care affect genetics and future generations. The relationship of vertebral subluxation to epigenetics is profound and needs to be understood by all practitioners who wish to engage in conversation related to today's science. |
||||||||
|
Biological Communications This is at the center of the 'new' understanding in human physiology. Today's science goes far beyond the limitations of synaptic transmission. There are semiconductor models, energetic models and holographic models that will help you understand the incredible power of the chiropractic adjustment. This module will excite as you learn the relationship between vertebral subluxation and 21st Century physiology. | ||||||||
 |
Physics and Emerging Biological Models Learn why and how biology must catch up with physics. Old biological models have fallen short in explaining so much about the expression of life and health in the human body...and especially failed to fully relate to why chiropractic works so well. However, new and exciting vitalistic models of biology that integrate with modern physics give a powerful context for why subluxation inhibits the expression of life in the system and why chiropractic so important.

Neurophysiological Models of Vertebral Subluxation It is so critical for every DC to have a fully thought through, integrated model of vertebral subluxation. It needs to be complete and in a sense, bullet-proof. One thing that many DC's fail to realize is that there isn't just one neurophysiological mechanism at play related to subluxation, but many. This is foundational stuff that every DC needs to know and know well. This is a big part of the critical intellectual ammunition that enters the interprofessional conversation about subluxation and chiropractic. |

 |
Philosophy, Epistemology, and Rules of Evidence When you have contradictions in your basic philosophical premises, your arguments crumble, your confidence wanes, and your certainty falters. In this module we examine why you practice the way you do; and learn how chiropractic care saves money and gets results. Further, in this module, you will learn the proper rules of evidence and you will be able to shoot holes in the skeptics who seek to discredit you! |
||||||||
 |
Experimental Evidence of the Adverse Effects of Vertebral Subluxation Learn how animal models, advanced imaging and human studies validate what you do. Not only are there many forms of clinical evidence proving the effectiveness of adjusting subluxations, but there are also additional modes of experimental evidence that further bolster the incredible virtue of chiropractic care.

Clinical Assessments None of this information truly matters unless you can deliver the vision through the use of appropriate, reliable, and valid assessments on a patient by patient basis. All this science must be applied in a way that is congruent with your understanding of vertebral subluxation. This means there must be an operational model of subluxation that you work from and meaningful indicators to tell you how to manage your patients for a lifetime. In this module, you will learn how this all turns into a daily reality in your practice. |

Who is Dr. Christopher Kent - Your Advanced Subluxation Training Presenter?
(and why is he the best guy in the world to teach you this?)
Christopher Kent, DC JD
Dr. Kent is a co-founder of the Chiropractic Leadership Alliance. His passion for facilitating human empowerment led him to the chiropractic profession, where he has served as a practitioner, educator, author, lecturer, and researcher. Dr. Kent graduated from Palmer College in Davenport, IA, in 1973.
Following graduation, Dr. Kent joined the Palmer faculty. While at Palmer, he was elected president of the faculty senate and worked as a principal investigator in the research department. Dr. Kent left Davenport and moved to Florida to practice full-time. He qualified as a specialist in chiropractic diagnostic imaging, was named a Fellow of the College of Chiropractic Imaging, and completed visiting fellowship programs in magnetic resonance imaging. He also served as an associate professor at Palmer-West in California.
Acknowledged as one of the brightest minds in chiropractic, Dr. Kent returned to New Jersey in 1990 to continue the in-depth research on surface EMG that he had started several years earlier with colleague and friend, Dr. Gentempo. His vision was to develop technologies that would objectively demonstrate manifestations of nerve interference and ultimately provide certainty for chiropractors and their patients. Along the way, Dr. Kent was recognized as "Chiropractic Researcher of the Year" in 1991 by the International Chiropractors Association (ICA). He was also named ICA's "Chiropractor of the Year" in 1998. In June 2001, Dr. Kent was elected Chair of the United Nations Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) Health Committee, the first chiropractor to hold that office. In 2007, Dr. Kent was honored with the first Lifetime Achievement Award bestowed by Life University.

Rave Reviews for Dr. Kent:
Dr. Chris Kent has been a central figure in the contemporary chiropractic dialogue in areas of identity, research and international affairs. I have known Dr. Kent since his graduation from Palmer College in 1973. I have watched his influence in and impact on the profession grow as witnessed by him being named Chiropractic Researcher of the Year in 1991 by the ICA, Chiropractor of the Year in 1998 and was the first chiropractor elected to Chair the United Nations NGO Health Committee. It was my pleasure to award Dr. Kent the first ever Life University Lifetime Achievement award in 2007. He continued his education to become an attorney for the purpose of using his degree to help preserve and defend the chiropractic profession. More than that he is a phenomenal speaker who brings scientific accuracy, interdisciplinary research, and precise chiropractic principles to audiences around the world. If I could only expose Life University students to two or three speakers during their four years at chiropractic college, Dr. Kent would be in this elite group. He always finds a way to empower individuals to discover and design lives of both success and significance and since this is the mission of Life University he is a friend and a resource of profound importance.
Sincerely with gratitude,
President

Dr Christopher Kent is an Icon in the Chiropractic profession. He is one of the most sought after speakers today. After his inspiring speech at the Parker Las Vegas Seminar to thousands, he received one of the best standing ovations I have ever seen. If you are ready to have a defining moment in your life and in your practice, then Dr. Kent is who you want to experience. You will be glad you did!

I believe that there are very few people who have spent more time, money and mental capacity on the understanding of the devastating effects of the vertebral subluxation than Christopher Kent, D.C., J.D. His early pioneering research into the first generation subluxation station was the first major step in chiropractic detection of subluxation technology since x rays and the old hand held nervo-scopes from the 1930's. As a result of a brilliant mind and significant commitment, no one has had the ability to spend more time studying, quantifying, documentation and objectifying the vertebral subluxation than Dr. Kent. The result is a genius linguist with purpose and certainty that is unmatched in many realms, including that in the understanding of the vertebral subluxation.

I believe that Dr. Christopher Kent not only knows as much or more about the entire subluxation complex, its causes, effects and how to deal with them as anyone alive today. But more importantly he has the ability to take extremely complex and difficult concepts and boil them down to something so simple and easy that even mere mortals like you and I
can understand.
If Dr. Kent is teaching a class on subluxation I am going to be there and if we are to take our rightful place as the recognized leaders of a true health care system worldwide we all need to be on these calls!

Dr. Christopher Kent is the profession's most complete resource for understanding the implications and effects of the vertebtral subluxation on human health and potential. His visionary approach to chiropractic combined with his encyclopedic mind would mean little unless it was blended with his amazing wit and exceptional communication skills. He can take the most complex situations and help you untangle them with a single, wise comment. Christopher has been my friend and mentor for years and I can honestly say that I would not be the chiropractor I am today without his constant presence.

To whom it may concern
In my over 30 years in the chiropractic profession, that essentially started with the writing of a treatise on the vertebral subluxation from the available literature for Dr. Sid Williams, then president of Life Chiropractic College, no single name came up more frequently within the chiropractic profession than that of Dr. Christopher Kent.
When writing the Standard of Care model for the State of Michigan in 1991, no other name within the chiropractic profession had authored as much on the subject of subluxation than Dr. Kent.
That said, today there are no living chiropractors who, in my experience, can and do communicate about the devastating effects of the vertebral subluxation on human health more elegantly or effectively than Dr. Kent.
He has been a mentor and inspiration for thousands of chiropractors who, in many cases, learned about subluxation and became purposefully directed to communicate about it as well as correct it as a result of Dr. Kent's teachings.
In 2010, I can think of no other person within the chiropractic profession with more credentials, communication skills or passion to teach about the vertebral subluxation than Dr. Kent.

Dr. Christopher Kent has long been one of our professions best educators. His ability to explain the philosophy, science and art of chiropractic has helped chiropractors to develop a greater understanding of vertebral subluxation. In a time when chiropractors are striving for greater certainty, credibility and clarity on the impact of vertebral subluxation, they are also looking for validation as to the effectiveness of the chiropractic adjustment. Dr. Kent is a master at bringing greater clarity to both of these concerns by presenting research and technology that allow the chiropractor to leave his presentation with a higher level of certainty and confidence in communicating the chiropractic message.
