Movement is medicine — and the coronal plane may be its most underutilized dimension. Orthopedics 213 takes chiropractors on an evidence-informed journey from the rhythmic patterns of functional dance movement to the precision of the side posture adjustment, revealing what three decades of clinical neuroscience have taught us about how lateral movement shapes the brain and body. Taught by Michael Hall, DC, FIACN — founder of BrainDC.org and a Diplomate of the American Board of Chiropractic Neurology — this 2-hour on-demand course delivers immediately applicable clinical strategies grounded in anatomy, neuroplasticity, and motor function assessment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Orthopedics 213: Coronal Plane Movement & Neuroplasticity cover?

Orthopedics 213 is a 2-hour online chiropractic CE course on functional and dynamic movement in the coronal (frontal) plane: functional plane review, subluxation patterns and listings, neuroplasticity, motor weakness examination, and practical in-office applications. It was formerly titled "From the Electric Slide to the Side Posture Adjustment — What Have We Learned."

Is Orthopedics 213 PACE-approved and accepted in my state?

What are neuroplasticity exercises and do they work?

Neuroplasticity exercises are movement and coordination activities that drive experience-dependent change in the brain's motor pathways. Orthopedics 213 reviews the clinical neuroscience behind them and teaches practical coronal plane activities — including motor weakness examination of the deltoids, gluteus medius, and optomotor/hand-eye coordination — that chiropractors can apply in the office.
