Course Overview

Part II of the Advanced Thorax series focuses on the "how" of clinical resolution. Using 39 years of evidence-based practice, Dr. Monte Horne breaks down specific adjustive vectors for complex rib subluxations and chronic thoracic postural distortions. Learn the clinical reasoning that separates a standard adjustment from a life-changing clinical outcome for your patients.

Clinical Outcomes: Monday Morning Value

Advanced Thoracic CAP

In the thorax, symmetry and mobility are the markers of success. Learn to use **Visual Postural Sighting** and **Resisted Respiratory Effort** as your Clinical Audits (CAP) in this 1-hour Board & PACE approved course to give patients instant, objective feedback on their thoracic structural integrity after the visit.

The Thorax II Part II Pearls

The First Rib "Anchor"

Master the specific adjustive vectors for a superior first rib subluxation. Learn why this often-overlooked segment is frequently the true driver behind recalcitrant cervical pain and thoracic outlet syndromes.

Costochondritis vs. Mechanics

Differentiating inflammatory costochondritis from posterior rib-head dysfunction. Learn the specific palpation "trigger points" that define your clinical path and determine if the case is adjustive or requires co-management.
