Saturday, May 3rd- MacDonald Safety Corridor Protocol Lower Spine
Very Limited Seating!
Level 2: Lower Spine
In this seminar, Chiropractors will dive into analysis and force application options for the lumbar and pelvis and begin exploring cranial work. We also explore the lower Safety Corridor. This seminar builds on previous knowledge but is also suitable for those new to the protocol, offering insights into enhancing the lower spine, the role torque plays in both bone and fascia feedback, and how vital the dorsal root of the Vagus is in overall regulation. For more information on this protocol, watch VIDEO HERE or read more about it HERE
Chiropractors, join us and delve deep into the world of neurologically focused chiropractic approaches that seamlessly integrate with principled chiropractic assessments and adjust to promote nervous system regulation.
🔍 Discover:
- The "MacDonald Safety Corridor Protocol" seminar is for chiropractors looking to utilize principles from the polyvagal theory in their adjusting and practice member care.
- The Lower Spine Seminar focuses DIRECTLY on the most misunderstood component of the Vagus- the Dorsal circuitry and its impact on regulation.
- Visceral adjusting. Visceral adjusting helps the nervous system regulate through the vagus nerve, the lymphatic system, and the enteric nervous system, affecting serotonin. Learn the autonomic walk, be able to use this Monday morning in practice.
- Adding safety cues into your adjusting protocol will enhance your current Chiropractic adjusting technique.
- You can still take The Lower Spine Seminar without attending The Upper Spine Seminar.

I would say it’s a more in-depth way of assessing and adjusting - using modified adjustments which will enhance the ones we already use in practice. I believe if more of us adjust like this we will have a much more relaxed community

The MacDonald Safety Corridor Protocol adds tweaks to your current adjustments to bring you to the next level of care. It adds an extra layer of checks to amplify what you are already doing. It is suitable for every technique and is not overly time consuming to add on to what you are already doing.

What an incredible weekend! Learning, hands-on mentorship, and community. It doesn't get any better. I do not doubt that I'm a better chiropractor after this experience. Thank you to the MacDonalds, who consistently over-deliver.
Dr. Estelle Zauner Maughan, UK
Taking part in this protocol and learning how to put my adjustments together so my clients can integrate in a neurologically safer way is a game changer. My communication has changed, and my outcomes are improving. Every chiropractor should have an understanding of this in daily life and practice.
Dr. Julie Darchuk , Canada
This weekend was exactly what I needed. It was filled with knowledge, skill, connection and community. I left the weekend feeling inspired and excited for practice on Monday. I would love to do this seminar again as there was so much good information. I would highly recommend it. Don't think twice just sign up! I promise you will not regret!!
Dr. Petrice Foxworthy, USA
This protocol allows the practitioner to really tune into their patient's body and nervous system, creating a felt sense of safety for the patient and, as a result, more ease for the patient.
