Add to Cart — $768 after automatic discountCCG integrates geriatric-specific coursework with rehabilitation science and diagnostic imaging into a unified curriculum for managing the aging chiropractic patient. Each domain addresses a clinical reality that DCs encounter daily as practice demographics shift older.
Chiropractic integration: Falls are the leading cause of injury death in adults 65+. The DC who screens for fall risk and prescribes balance interventions becomes indispensable to the geriatric care team — and catches patients before the fracture, not after.
• Fall-risk screening protocols: Timed Up and Go (TUG), Five-Times Sit-to-Stand (5xSTS), Berg Balance Scale
• Environmental safety assessment and home modification guidance
• Balance progressions: static to dynamic to reactive — dosed for the aging patient
Chiropractic integration: Every manual technique decision in the geriatric patient begins with bone density awareness. Domain 2 teaches the imaging red flags, safe loading protocols, and fracture-aware adjustment modifications that keep chiropractic care both effective and safe for osteoporotic patients.
• Osteoporosis imaging flags on radiography: compression fractures, cortical thinning, Singh index
• Safe loading protocols and technique modifications for low bone density
• Fracture awareness: vertebral compression fracture recognition and referral criteria
Chiropractic integration: The geriatric patient rarely presents with a single complaint. Domain 3 builds the clinical reasoning for managing multimorbidity, polypharmacy interactions that affect MSK care, and the co-management communication skills that position the DC as a trusted member of the patient's care team.
• Polypharmacy considerations: medications that affect bone density, balance, and soft tissue healing
• Co-management with PCPs, physical therapists, and geriatric specialists
• Multimorbidity care planning: prioritizing interventions when the problem list is long
Chiropractic integration: The goal of geriatric chiropractic care is not pain reduction alone — it is preserved independence. Domain 4 teaches the gait assessment, functional mobility testing, and outcome measurement frameworks that define success in geriatric terms: can the patient still live independently, get up from a chair, and walk safely?
• Gait assessment and strength testing protocols for the aging patient
• Assistive device training and appropriate recommendations
• Outcomes-based geriatric care: functional independence as the primary endpoint
Fellow of the International Academy of Chiropractic Neurology and lead faculty for the CCG program. Dr. Hall provides the neurological and clinical neuroscience foundation for geriatric assessment, fall-risk screening, and complexity management in the aging patient.
Fellow of the Academy of Chiropractic Orthopedists. Dr. Yeomans contributes the rehabilitation, functional mobility, and outcome measurement modules within the geriatric context.

Credential transparency. The CCG certificate is a post-doctoral certificate of completion recognizing 48 hours of advanced learning in clinical chiropractic geriatrics. It is not a board diplomate credential. CCG hours provide specialized geriatric training and may serve as foundational study for practitioners building a geriatric-focused practice.
Why does CCG include radiology courses?
Geriatric chiropractic care requires imaging literacy. The three radiology courses (203, 213, 216) teach the imaging red flags most relevant to the aging patient — osteoporotic compression fractures, cortical thinning, degenerative changes that alter treatment decisions — so every manual technique choice is informed by bone-density awareness.
Which courses count toward CCG?
CCG draws from three course tracks: Geriatrics 201–207 (7 courses), Rehabilitation 201–214 (14 courses), and Radiology 203, 213, 216 (3 courses). Select any 24 courses (48 hours) across these three tracks to complete the program.
Will the 48 CCG hours satisfy my state CE renewal?
In most cases yes. All courses across all three tracks are PACE-approved and recognized in 40+ U.S. states, Canada, and several international jurisdictions. CE Broker auto-reports your completion. Confirm your state's rules on the state CE guidelines page.
Do some CCG and CCR courses overlap?
Yes — CCG includes Rehabilitation 201–214, while CCR includes Rehabilitation 201–218. Rehab 201–214 overlap between the two programs. If you complete both certifications, the overlapping rehab courses count toward both. The Geriatrics and Radiology courses in CCG, and the PT and EBP courses in CCR, are unique to each program.
How much does the CCG program cost?
Online courses are $20/hr — get 10% off when you purchase 6–9 hours, or 20% off at 10+ hours. Discounts apply automatically at checkout. The full 48-hour CCG program at 20% off comes to $768 — a $192 savings off the $960 base tuition.
