The scientific rationale for its use as well as a thorough explanation into safety, indications, contraindications, efficacy, and clinical application will be explored. The coursework associated with the program is not live and can be done at any time. Thus, there are no restrictions on what time zone or country you are in to participate. This website and all materials are accessible by any computer connected to the internet through a variety of internet browsers. It is highly recommended that you access this course with a high-speed internet connection as the resources involved often have streaming video and large file sizes.
