Chance of a Lifetime !

How are you at making chiropractic diagnosis and carrying out treatment?
Particularly since eight out of ten patients with backaches have acquired skeletal misalignments. When you have learned the chiropractic methods of Dr. Ackermann, then both you and your patients will often experience immediate success with chiropractic treatment. In the interest of your patients—take the opportunity to learn the exact diagnostic method and the treatment techniques for yourself. The Ackermann-Method is based on 40 years of research and clinical work.

"Exact Chiropractic Diagnosis and Treatment Techniques"

Dr. Ackermann’s chiropractic seminar is a special course in clinical practice for therapists having a basic knowledge of anatomy and physiology, i.e. doctors and physiotherapists.
This intensive course lasts five days.

We work in small seminar groups of five to maxiumum eight students per course.

Every treatment is discussed with anatomical charts, skeletal models, x-rays and patients as a basis. You will get individual guidance in each special manipulation. The central focus of this course is diagnostics with test programs and ‘Instant Reflex Phenomena’ as well as practice in palpation of blocked vertebral joints. You will learn how to analyze all misalignments of the atlas and be able to palpate seven painful spots that will guide you in your therapy. Importance is also placed on goal-oriented treatment methods, every chiropractic manipulation is practiced until memorized. Also, you will learn how to differentiate the primary causes of pain from the secondary. This is what we call the higher chiropractic school !

The results you can achieve by learning the "Exact Chiropractic Diagnosis and Treatment Techniques" will speak by itself. Knowing is power, which both you and your patients will benefit from. What is new is that our research results has made it possible for you to acquire all the knowledge about diagnosis and treatment that is needed for complete chiropractic treatment.

Upon completion of the course, you will immediately be able to begin therapy in your clinical practice with great success!

Five unique reasons for attending the Ackermann College

1. Small Seminar Groups

Owing to the small size of each seminar, with about five participants, you will receive intensive instruction and attention, and not forgotten in the crowd—80 per cent of the seminar is practical exercises.

2. Simplicity

Complex chiropractic matters are explained in a simple manner, since one of the principles of Dr. Ackermann’s seminars is to concentrate on what is most important.

3. Extensive Experience

Dr. Ackermann’s skeletal research and chiropractic knowledge is the result of 40 years of experience.
Instructors are experienced chiropractors with years of practical knowledge.

4. Gentle Chiropractic

A gentle chiropractic treatment presupposes an exact diagnosis. Only in this way, will you be able to apply treatment to the blocked areas, and return the vertebrae to their proper positions. Our main object is to make this possible.

5. Publications

Dr. Ackermann’s textbook, his video-film and his other publications will provide you with intensive ‘homework’.
This will give you the chance to always have this special knowledge right before your eyes.

  Soft Chiropractic"
by Dr. Ackermann

“... the most valuable learning experience of my life“:

    It was the most valuable learning experience of my life.”

Even your greatest expectations will be surpassed !
