Patient Communication

Mastering the Art of Communicating Upper Cervical Care

Upper Cervical Care is amazing and powerful in both its application and principle.  However, your patients and potential patients need to understand how and why Upper Cervical care works.  This is done by effective communication strategies through you and your entire staff.

Patients can tell if you are reciting a script, and scripts are so often rigid and cannot be adapted easily.  This Patient Communication Module doesn’t teach you just what to say, but it teaches HOW to communicate with patients, and WHY certain things need to be said in certain orders.  This online module covers a broad spectrum of communication strategies with the patient including:

  • Consultations
  • Examination Communication
