Core Seminar Information

Qualifications to Attend

Anyone who has enough medical background to understand and benefit from the course can attend. In order to practice FSM and purchase and use the equipment a practitioner must have a license that allows them to use electrical stimulation or does not restrict them from using electrical stimulation on patients or must work for someone who has such a license. The course is geared toward medical, chiropractic, osteopathic and naturopathic physicians, acupuncturists, physical and occupational therapists, massage therapists and the assistants who function in all of these clinical settings.

CEUs

CEUs available for DCs, NDs, and some PTs, LAcs, and MTs. CEUs vary per state. Please call the office for more information.

Distant Learning

In the USA, we offer the Core on DVD for health practitioners unable to attend in person for initial training. The price is $795 for the DVD set and seminar materials. During the Core presentation you will notice the class doing hands-on practicums. Because we consider this an important step in the training that you will miss, we are offering you a one-on-one practicum with a trained instructor at no additional charge to you. This is a great opportunity to work with an experienced FSM practitioner and ask any questions that you may have. To find a trained instructor, click here.

In Ireland, national certifications are available only at the National Training Center. The Core DVDs do not qualify for the national certification.

Course topics, goals and objectives:

The course covers basic microcurrent information and the use of specific frequencies and protocols thought to address specific tissues and conditions based on the principles of biologic resonance. The first part of the course focuses on the frequencies and protocols used to treat chronic myofascial pain, new injuries and injuries less than six weeks old, discogenic pain, post concussive syndrome and neuropathic pain. The third day of the course focuses on the frequencies needed to treat visceral conditions, and functional medicine applications.

At the end of the class the student will be able to operate a microcurrent instrument, care for and maintain the equipment, position a patient, select specific frequencies for treatment, choose appropriate protocols for appropriate conditions and treat a patient for chronic myofascial pain, neuropathic pain, cervical trauma fibromyalgia, and facet generated pain. The student will be able to treat a new injury or chronic problems in the nervous system or in various visceral systems. The student will understand how to combine frequency protocols and nutritional supplements to support the changes made during treatment and create lasting improvement. The student will have an understanding of the side effects, contraindications and limitations of the treatment method and will be able to explain them to patients.
