CURACORE’S VARIOUS COURSES
ACUPUNCTURE COURSES
CuraCore’s in depth, highly-organized curriculum directs veterinary practitioners through the inner workings of acupuncture as they delve into the principles and importance of the anatomy of acupuncture, neuromodulation, and neurophysiology. Additionally, influenced by the practice and principles of osteopathy, we focus heavily on evaluating and treating the myofascial system. Our leading, science-based courses stand above the crowd of other acupuncture programs in that they include exclusively evidence-informed, rational approaches. We have long ago left behind the mysticisms and metaphors of the past. Beyond learning the scientific merits of veterinary acupuncture, our acupuncture courses will equip veterinarians to share science-based presentations in the doors of your own practice and beyond to your community and professional venues. You will discover how you can take a part in bringing acupuncture as a viable treatment to the forefront in the world of medicine
BOTANICAL MEDICINE COURSES
Each veterinary practitioner needs to know the impact botanical therapies can have on patients. In order to offer top-quality medical care and to perform medicine safely and effectively, veterinary professionals must take a critical, evidence-informed, and scientific view concerning botanical medicine. Our thought-provoking, engaging, and interactive online courses will teach you which plant-based products can be relied upon for a fair level of effectiveness and safety. With our course reading materials and video content, you will gain a thorough understanding of the manner in which herbalists manufacture, prepare, and store herbs and the resulting quality, potency, and safety. Students will come away with the skills to read and evaluate the claims of product labels. Furthermore, you’ll discover science facts, risks, and safety in the use of cannabis, learn the issues and downfalls of Chinese herbal medicine, evaluate essential oil issues, and more.
Our goal is to equip you to explain how botanical medicines work, how you can safely use them, and how to escape unfortunate pitfalls. For example, it’s crucial to be aware of which herbal treatments can cause exorbitant bleeding in your patients BEFORE they enter surgery.
Remember – None of our botanical courses encourage practitioners to recommend untested products on the basis of a speculative dose. Instead, our programs are science and evidence-based, informing students on how, if, and when botanical therapies work. That way, there is no need for you to refer colleagues or clients to an herbalist who may or may not hold to a rational or responsibly-prescribing medical foundation.
PHOTOMEDICINE COURSES
If you are a veterinary professional accustomed only to allopathic and conventional medical treatment methods, it may seem unusual to treat your patients with lasers or light emitting diodes. In photomedicine, there are no injections or medications to swallow. Rather than involving pharmaceuticals, you are dealing with photons. An important differentiating fact to know is that laser surgery destroys tissue while laser therapy heals tissue. LED and laser therapy have been proven to counter inflammation, improve blood flow, and reduce pain in patients – all positive effects for those who have suffered an injury or had a surgery. In favor of laser therapy, several meta-analyses and systemic reviews have been discovered for a number of conditions, from the stiffness and pain caused by arthritis to cancer therapy and more. At CuraCore, we provide a course online on laser therapy that is created for veterinary researchers and clinicians. This is a 12-module course that instructs students on photomedicine’s inner workings, the supporting science, and the ways practitioners can employ it to help bring healing to their patients.
MEDICAL MASSAGE COURSES
No matter what kind of veterinary healthcare service you provide, nothing can replace the diagnostic and therapeutic insight you gain through the power found in informed touch. Medical literature illustrates the benefits of soft tissue therapy through a variety of studies including controlled, randomized trials that show the effectiveness of manual methods for a number of pain issues. Beyond reducing pain and discomfort, manual therapy (or medical massage) is known to improve mood, immunologic activity, and digestive function.
When you take one of our CuraCore medical massage hybrid online courses, onsite courses, or hands-on workshops, you’ll get to explore at a comprehensive level the evidence, science, and skilled conveyance of soft tissue massage to a broad range of patient ailments. Our online courses include reading assignments, video material, and practice times at home. You’ll also review discussions on how medical massage is part of the larger scientific integrative medicine picture. Our practice sessions that happen on site include supervised opportunities for developing expertise and confidence in administering manual therapy.
