Joint / Extremity / Non-Spinal Injection Course
Integrative Pain Management Training in Injections for Joints and Soft Tissues including Tendonopathies and other Sub-Acute Conditions.
It is all too common that primary care physicians and other specialists come across patients suffering from very painful joint and extremity conditions. The brunt of these conditions can be treated easily, in-office, and are easy for physicians to learn and perform. The risk associated with these treatments is minimal, and are often rewarding to both your patients and your practice.
We are proud to offer our Joint / Extremity / Non-Spinal Injection Course. This program is to be taken in conjunction with our Advanced Pain Management Training and The Pain Show programs. This specific training workshop will provide you instruction on a wide array of procedures that can be immediately implemented into your practice, such as:
- Joint Injections- Shoulder, Hip, Knee, and Sacroiliac Joint Injections.
- Minor Injections- Trigger point injections,
- Specialty Injections:

We also place a strong emphasis on spinal injections during the training, such as facet joint and epidural injections, with use of fluoroscopic guidance in needle localization. Aside from learning about the different conditions and techniques used to treat them, you will also learn protocols, medications, side effects, precaution techniques, as well as patient selection and criteria.
Complimenting the lecture component of the program is the actual hands-on portion of the training. Working closely with our team of board-certified instructors, attendees will work on live volunteers as well as custom-fitted models to become proficient in the various taught techniques.
We are also proud to offer a specific component to address all business and marketing components. Learn about detailed coding and billing parameters necessary for insurance carries and Medicare. As with all of our training seminars, the Joint and Extremity Injection Training Course aims to get you proficient in these procedures and quickly and effectively implement them into your practice.
Our goal is for you to be successful.
In addition to learning the ins and outs of the procedures themselves, we also provide lessons in procedure pricing and marketing strategies to ensure financial success. These tools have been field tested and implemented in our own practices. Again, the goal is for you to leave the workshop confident in the procedure itself, but also confident that this will be a lucrative opportunity for your practice.
Our business training can also be found online, via special Training Webinars, which can be completed prior to or subsequently to the workshop. Be sure to check the schedule on our website for upcoming dates.

Best workshop I have attended
I just signed up for the all-inclusive membership so I could go to all the classes. The Botox Training class was very good. I worked on three patients in the afternoon and did a lot of injections on them. The best part was the hands on, was well organized and they let you do a lot. Dr. Roberts was excellent and she took her time with me as well during the hands-on part, thanks Dr. R.

Expensive but ok
The course was expensive and for the price I paid would have expected lunch and more take home materials. The manual was actually nice in that its color but, I believe expensive at $1200 for a seminar. Good course and good teacher but still a little expensive.
