Every CCEDseminars functional-medicine webinar maps to one of the Five Pillars below — the topical framework chiropractors can use to organize chronic-care competency within scope.
Pillar 1
Macronutrient targets, anti-inflammatory protocols, gut-health frameworks, food-as-medicine counseling, and supplement principles aligned with chiropractic license.
Pillar 2
Sleep hygiene, stress reduction, movement prescription, circadian alignment, and behavior-change conversations that fit a chiropractic visit cadence.
Pillar 3
Reading common labs, recognizing patterns, communicating findings, and using lab literacy to inform patient education and referral — not diagnosis or prescription.
Pillar 4
Case-management frameworks for chronic NMS conditions complicated by metabolic, inflammatory, or lifestyle factors. Practical workflows for the chiropractic office.
Pillar 5
Charting functional-medicine reasoning defensibly, building co-management referral networks, and knowing exactly when and how to send patients to MDs/DOs.
Webinars are added to each pillar as the live calendar fills. Browse the upcoming-webinar grid below for current dates and registration.
Functional medicine relies on case-by-case clinical reasoning — not memorization. Live webinars let you ask Dr. Benedikt about a real patient scenario in real time, watch him reason through differential explanations within chiropractic scope, and hear how he frames lab findings as patient education rather than diagnosis.
Self-paced text/quiz CE cannot reproduce that experience. State boards increasingly distinguish live-format hours from self-paced hours for renewal — live PACE-approved CE typically counts toward live requirements where they exist.
Confirm specifics against the CCEDseminars online chiropractic CE guidelines or your state board before registering.
Other functional medicine programs include long, expensive certifications and general functional-medicine tracks not specifically PACE-approved for chiropractic state CE renewal. CCEDseminars delivers live, PACE-approved webinars organized around the Five Pillars and built specifically for chiropractors operating within scope. Taught live by Howard Benedikt, DC, DCBCN.
Chiropractors can deliver functional-medicine–informed care within their license — lifestyle counseling, clinical nutrition education, evidence-informed case management, and co-management referrals. They cannot practice "medicine" as defined by their state, which means no diagnosis or prescription outside chiropractic scope. CCEDseminars webinars model this boundary explicitly.
CCEDseminars' functional medicine webinars are PACE-approved (Provider #34015544) and count toward chiropractic state CE renewal in PACE-recognized jurisdictions. Confirm specifics via your state board or the CCEDseminars guidelines page.
Functional medicine for chiropractors is a systems-based, root-cause approach to chronic care that uses clinical nutrition, lifestyle strategies, lab literacy, and patient-centered communication — all delivered within chiropractic scope. It complements the adjustment, never replaces medical care.
No certification is required to integrate functional-medicine principles within your chiropractic license. CE webinars build the clinical reasoning, lab literacy, and patient-communication skills you need. Some chiropractors pursue separate certifications for marketing or depth; CE provides the foundation either way.
Pillar 5 webinars cover defensible charting: framing recommendations as patient education, citing evidence, documenting referral conversations, and never writing notes that read as diagnosis or prescription. Good documentation is the bridge between FM thinking and chiropractic scope.
Howard Benedikt, DC, DCBCN — Diplomate & President of the Chiropractic Board of Clinical Nutrition (DCBCN). Practicing chiropractor with decades of clinical experience integrating functional medicine, clinical nutrition, and lab literacy into chiropractic practice within scope.
Dr. Benedikt teaches CCEDseminars' Functional Medicine 300-series live webinars on autonomic nervous system regulation, clinical nutrition foundations, lab interpretation, patient-centered chronic care, and defensible documentation. Every webinar models the scope boundary explicitly: chiropractors deliver patient education and lifestyle counseling, not diagnosis or prescription.
