FOUNDATIONS CURRICULUM
Introduction to P-DTR
Where does P-DTR come from, how did it develop and what are the concepts behind it.
P-DTR Patent (pdtr-global.com)
Rules & modes
What are the foundational rules of how CNS deals with and compensates for traumas and dysfunctions:
Hyper/hyposignaling receptors
Primary, secondary, tertiary
Proper stim, anti stim, opposite stim
Indicator muscles
Therapy localization & universal therapy localization
Autogenic inhibition
Muscles should be able to facilitate and inhibit in a specific manner.
How to use spindle cell compression and X and II lines.
Use of X lines and II lines. Where does it come from and how does it work? (pdtr-global.com)

Cranial faults and sutures
Explanation of the many different types, their inhibition patterns
and how to treat with a neurological P-DTR approach. General indications:
Cranial nerve conditions, autonomic nervous system imbalance.
Endocrine system imbalance, neurologic disorganization (often jaw).
Skull trauma, whiplash, dental malocclusion & tooth extraction.
Gait dysfunctions, dysfunctional interactions between different body regions.
Poor body habits (e.g. propping one’s chin on their hand).
