The WVCS is excited to offer 8 hours of continuing education in a live in person format at the Stonewall Resort in Roanoke WV. Dr. Brian Jensen will be providing his "The Changing Brain - Applying the principles of Neuroplasticity to Pain, Posture and Stress".

With a greater understanding of how the nervous system works and responds to our environment, we can now improve patient outcomes by making predictable changes to pain, postural integrity, balance and functional movement.
