Master Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV) studies and Electromyography (EMG) diagnostic testing in our comprehensive hands-on training course designed for chiropractors. Learn to objectively evaluate nerve function, document findings, and enhance your diagnostic capabilities.
Our comprehensive NCV & EMG Training Course is designed for chiropractors who want to add electrodiagnostic testing capabilities to objectively document nerve involvement and expand their diagnostic services.
A comprehensive curriculum covering everything chiropractors need to understand and perform electrodiagnostic testing.
Master peripheral nervous system anatomy, nerve conduction physiology, and compound motor action potentials. Understand sensory and motor nerve pathways essential for accurate testing and interpretation.
Learn sensory nerve testing (sural, median, ulnar), motor nerve testing (median, ulnar, peroneal, tibial), and late responses including F-wave, H-wave, and A-wave studies.
Understand needle insertion techniques, motor unit potential analysis, fibrillation potentials, and sharp wave identification for comprehensive EMG evaluation.
Develop skills to accurately interpret NCV/EMG findings, correlate with clinical presentation, and integrate results into your treatment planning.
Hands-on training with professional NCV/EMG equipment. Learn proper setup, electrode placement, and troubleshooting techniques.
Learn proper documentation protocols, report generation, and how to communicate findings to support treatment recommendations and referrals.
Understanding chiropractic scope and requirements for electrodiagnostic testing.
Chiropractic scope of practice for NCV/EMG testing varies significantly by state. Some states explicitly include electrodiagnostic testing within chiropractic scope, others require additional certification or training documentation, and some states do not permit chiropractors to perform these procedures. Before offering NCV/EMG services, you must verify your state chiropractic board regulations. Our course provides the training foundation, but state licensure determines your authority to practice.
NCV/EMG testing provides objective evidence of nerve dysfunction to support your clinical findings and document medical necessity for treatment.
NCV/EMG findings help determine when patients require chiropractic care versus referral to neurology, orthopedics, or other specialists.
In states where permitted, NCV/EMG testing generates $300-800+ per study and adds a valuable diagnostic service to your practice.
Electrodiagnostic findings provide objective data to support your treatment plans, document patient progress, and demonstrate medical necessity for continued care. NCV/EMG results help justify care to insurance companies and provide baseline measurements for tracking improvement.
Receive your AAOPM Certificate of Completion documenting your training in electrodiagnostic procedures. This certification may satisfy training requirements in states that permit chiropractors to perform NCV/EMG with appropriate documentation.
