The frontal lobes are where a nervous system decides what to do with everything the rest of it collected. Neurology 205 works the brain’s executive region from its developmental foundations forward, because how the frontal lobes are built explains a good deal about how they fail.

The clinical payoff is pattern recognition. Frontal dysfunction shows up in presentations chiropractors already see — ADD/ADHD, Parkinson’s, dementia — and the course covers right versus left hemispheric specialisation, neuro-optometrics, and the diagnostic procedures that identify frontal impairment rather than inferring it.

Choose Your Neurology Path — Three Lanes, One Curriculum

The Neurology series runs from what you can measure at the bedside, through the brain systems that explain the findings, to the structures a chiropractor actually treats. Courses 201–210 are the first block of a larger clinical-neurology curriculum; each is two hours.

1 · Measurement and Monitoring (203, 208)

What you measure in the room and what the numbers actually mean — oximetry and vital signs read through a functional neurological lens rather than as box-ticking.

203: Pulse Oximetry in Chiropractic
208: Vital Signs for Chiropractors

2 · Brain Systems (202, 204–206)

The cortical and cerebellar files: what chronic pain does to the brain, how the pyramidal system governs tone and symmetry, and what the frontal lobes and cerebellum contribute to everything else. You are here: Neurology 205.

202: Pain & the Central Nervous System
204: Clinical Aspects of the Pyramidal Man
205: Functional Neurology & Frontal Lobes
206: Functional Neurology & the Cerebellum

3 · Spine, Balance and Clinical Integration (201, 207, 209, 210)

Where neurology meets the structures a chiropractor actually treats — the cord, the vestibular apparatus, the craniocervical junction — and three worked cases that put the whole method together.

201: Chiropractic Myelopathy Management
207: Exploring the Vestibular System
209: Guzay’s Theorem & Craniocervical Neurology
210: Chiropractic Clinical Case Studies

Every course in the series is 2 PACE-approved CE hours at $40, and the automatic bundle discounts apply across the whole lane.

What You'll Learn in Neurology 205

Explain the neuro-embryology of the frontal lobes and how their developmental foundations shape adult function.

Differentiate right and left hemispheric specialisation and what asymmetric findings implicate clinically.

Recognise the frontal contribution to ADD/ADHD, Parkinson’s disease and dementia presentations.

Apply neuro-optometric and diagnostic procedures used to identify frontal lobe impairment.

Where Neurology CE Hours Count — State Rules Worth Knowing

Clinical neurology coursework is clinical subject matter — assessment, diagnosis and case management — which is exactly what several state boards ask for. In Iowa, these hours serve the 36-hour clinical case-management minimum; in Rhode Island, they address the 50-of-60 clinical requirement; and in Vermont — where practice-building coursework earns nothing — patient-care education like this counts fully under the clinical-focus rule.

Online-format allowances still vary by state — some accept every hour online, others cap distance learning or require in-person blocks. Check your state's guide in the full state directory before building your renewal plan.

Build Your Neurology Block

Every course in the Neurology series runs 2 hours at $40, so the automatic discounts do the bundling for you: 6–9 hours in one order earns 10% off, and 10 or more earns 20% off — courses 201–210 together are 20 hours, well past the 20% tier at roughly $320 instead of $400. The full Chiropractic Clinical Neurology (CCN) 201–224 bundle runs 48 hours if you are working toward the certification. This course continues the cortical thread opened by 202 Pain & the Central Nervous System, which documents frontal and parietal changes under chronic pain, and pairs with 206 Functional Neurology & the Cerebellum for the other half of the functional-neurology block.

Neurology 205 — Frequently Asked Questions

What does Neurology 205 cover?

Frontal lobe function and dysfunction for the practising chiropractor: the neuro-embryology and developmental foundations of the frontal lobes, right versus left hemispheric specialisation, the frontal contribution to disorders including ADD/ADHD, Parkinson’s disease and dementia, and the neuro-optometric and diagnostic procedures used to identify frontal impairment.

How many CE hours is this course, and what does it cost?

2 PACE-approved CE hours for $40, or $20 per hour. Ordering 6–9 hours at once takes 10% off automatically and 10 or more takes 20% off — courses 201–210 together are 20 hours and clear the 20% tier. No promo codes.

What does frontal lobe dysfunction look like clinically?

It shows up across conditions rather than as one syndrome. The course covers the frontal contribution to ADD/ADHD, Parkinson’s disease and dementia, and the diagnostic procedures that identify frontal impairment specifically instead of attributing it to the diagnosis label.

What is neuro-optometrics doing in a frontal lobe course?

Eye movement is frontally driven, which makes it one of the more accessible windows into frontal function. The course covers neuro-optometric procedures as part of the diagnostic toolkit for frontal impairment.

Will this course count toward my state CE requirement?

In most states, yes — this is clinical patient-care subject matter, and it is PACE-approved and co-sponsored by Texas Chiropractic College. Online-format allowances and clinical-hour minimums vary, so check your state guide in the full state directory before you build your renewal plan.

State Approval and Licensing Reminder

Continuing education requirements — including online-hour caps and clinical-hour minimums — vary by jurisdiction. Review the online chiropractic CE guidelines page and contact CCEDseminars with questions about your specific licensing requirements before registering.
