The first three years decide more about a nervous system than any three years that follow. Neurology 226 works that window from its origin: neural tube differentiation and what it determines about forebrain and hindbrain development, then forward into what a clinician can actually measure on an infant.
The measurable part is the point of the course. Cranial ratios assessed properly rather than eyeballed, the vestibular influences that shape emerging spinal tone, and infant lordosis as it develops — these are the pearls that let a practitioner evaluate a baby with precision instead of impression.
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 treats, the developing nervous system, and the risks worth screening for. Courses 201–230 are built out here, within a larger clinical-neurology curriculum; each is two hours.
1 · Assessment and Clinical Reasoning (203, 208, 210–211, 213, 222, 224)
What you measure and what it means — oximetry, vital signs, reflexes, the somatosensory exam and the neurology tests worth the chair time — through to outcome assessment and three worked cases.
203: Pulse Oximetry in Chiropractic
208: Vital Signs for Chiropractors
210: Chiropractic Clinical Case Studies
211: Reflex Assessment in Chiropractic
213: Neurology Tests for Chiropractors
222: Somatosensory Examination Review
224: Outcome Assessments: Neurologic Perspective
2 · Brain Systems and Function (202, 204–206, 218, 223, 228)
The cortical and cerebellar files — pain and the CNS, the pyramidal system, frontal lobes, cerebellum, tone — plus the neuro-myths worth retiring and the neurophysiology of emotion.
202: Pain & the Central Nervous System
204: Clinical Aspects of the Pyramidal Man
205: Functional Neurology & Frontal Lobes
206: Functional Neurology & the Cerebellum
218: Chiropractic Perspectives on Tone
223: Myths of the Brain
228: The Neurophysiology of Happiness
3 · Spine, Posture and Craniocervical (201, 207, 209, 219, 225)
Where neurology meets the structures a chiropractor treats — the cord, the vestibular apparatus, the craniocervical junction, the autonomic route to blood pressure, and the eight hours a night that shape all of it.
201: Chiropractic Myelopathy Management
207: Exploring the Vestibular System
209: Guzay’s Theorem & Craniocervical Neurology
219: Cervicogenic Hypertension
225: Current Perspectives of Sleep Posture
4 · Pediatric and Developmental Neurology (212, 217, 221, 226–227)
The developing nervous system from birth through adolescence — early plasticity, the 0–3 window, the elementary years, and concussion in children and teenagers. You are here: Neurology 226.
212: Pediatric Concussion Management
217: The Concussed Teen and Return to Learn
221: Brain Rules for Babies
226: Pediatric Pearls (Ages 0–3)
227: The Vital Child (Ages 5–12)
5 · Brain Health, Longevity and Risk (214–216, 220, 229–230)
The long game: movement and mood, dopamine and Parkinson’s, fitness as a clinical measure, stroke risk, memory preservation, and the digestive chemistry underneath all of it.
214: Depression and Exercise
215: Dopamine, Parkinson’s & Chiropractic
216: Is Fitness Important to Health?
220: Chiropractic Stroke Risk Assessment
229: Clinical Perspectives Surrounding Memory
230: Low Stomach Acid & the Burp Test
Every course in the series is 2 PACE-approved CE hours at $40, and the automatic bundle discounts apply across the whole lane.

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 sits between 221 Brain Rules for Babies, which covers the developmental principles, and 227 The Vital Child, which picks the child up at school age. 212 Pediatric Concussion Management covers injury in the same population.

Neurology 226 — Frequently Asked Questions
What does Neurology 226 cover?
Clinical pediatric neurology for ages 0–3: embryologic development and neural tube differentiation with its impact on forebrain and hindbrain health, assessment of cranial metrics and proper cranial ratios, the vestibular influences that shape spinal tone, and the evaluation of infant lordosis.
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 — no promo codes.
What are cranial ratios and why measure them?
They are the proportional relationships between cranial dimensions, and they are measurable rather than impressionistic. The course covers how to assess them properly and what a deviation from expected ratio indicates, so an observation about head shape becomes a documented finding.
How does the vestibular system affect an infant’s spinal tone?
Vestibular input is one of the earliest organised drivers of postural tone, so it shapes how spinal curves emerge in the first years. The course connects that influence to infant lordosis development, which is why the two are taught together rather than separately.
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.
