Treating Neck and Back Pain with Chinese Medicine
By far the most common conditions most acupuncturists treat are neck and back pain. And most acupuncturists do a really good job at it. This course takes an integrative approach to treating these conditions and will expand our diagnostic and treatment acumen. It will look at how to ask questions to solicit diagnostic details, conduct a thorough acupuncture-centric exam, develop appropriate and effective treatment protocols, and properly document all of it. No matter if you are new to treating these conditions or an expert at it, you will learn something new and interesting.
Course Goals
- Understand common conditions contributing to neck and back pain
- Perform appropriate exams for diagnosing these conditions
- Develop appropriate and effective treatment strategies
- Properly document the diagnosis and treatment

Very good CEUs. I think the time was sufficient but 4 hours might have been a little better to get through all the treatment info more thoroughly. Overall great. Thank you.

Greg is a very honest and clear teacher. I really appreciate him sharing both Western and Chinese Medicine. Neck and back pain are the most common complaints for Acupuncturists. I highly recommend Dr.Greg Sperber’s class !!and he is funny. I would have enjoyed little more time given to his use and knowledge of Chinese Medicine for neck and back pain.

The title of the class didn’t reflect the content provided. Knowledgable with his content. Too much time spent on Pachi-Pachi and not enough information on the acupuncture.

Greg shared unique techniques for disc pain. I enjoyed his instructional video. Keep teaching. I really enjoyed your class. So valuable that you have western medicine and Chinese medicine training and knowledge to share. Dr.Greg Sperber blends his knowledge of both western and Chinese medical training. His style of teaching is clear and concise and best of all useful.
