Unlock the Power of the Central Chain: Elevate Your Osteopathic Practice and Transform Your Patients’ Lives!

No more guesswork. No more surface-level treatments. Learn a revolutionary clinical approach that taps into the body’s self-regulating mechanisms to address deep-rooted dysfunctions.

✨ Inspiring Osteopathy Seminars:  Exploring the Osteopathic Link: The Central Chain & Somatic-Emotional Health

🗓️ December 5 – 8, 2024 at Four Points Sheraton, San Rafael, California.

🧘 Course Director: J.Yusuf Q. Erskine, D.O.

🧘 Special Guest: Philippe Druelle, D.O.

What if you could offer your patients more than relief—true, lasting transformation?

As a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine, you’ve mastered the body’s intricate systems. But complex cases with chronic pain, emotional stress, and visceral dysfunction demand more. You need a solution that integrates body, mind, and self-regulation to address root causes, not just symptoms.

Philippe Druelle DO will teach in this four-day course clinical methodology for relieving the suffering and dysfunctions of our complex patients.  This course is fascinating, expanding our capacities as osteopaths and enables us to relieve our patients by involving the mechanisms necessary for balance and health, in accordance with the core concepts and principles of osteopathy. 

The central chain is a functional unit which is the key to our body’s self-regulation.  It includes and brings together all the organs and the brain, the heart and the main arteries, the plexuses and especially the Vagus nerve, which run the factories of our body. That’s why we also call it the tree of life.

The Druelle Central Chain Course is unlike any osteopathic training you’ve experienced. Philippe Druelle, DO, brings decades of groundbreaking insight, sharing clinical methodologies that target the central chain—the core system connecting the brain, heart, and vital organs. This course empowers you to:

Your patients count on you for relief. With the Central Chain methodology, you can provide much more: true, lasting health.

Philippe Druelle DO, internationally recognized as an expert in this field, will present the results of his 40 years of clinical and experimental research on this subject, as well as a model explaining the interrelationships between the brain, membranes, fluid and liquid dynamics, vascularization and bioenergetics.

  • It has been more than twenty years since the Central Chain Course was first presented in the USA by Philippe Druelle at Dr. Frymann’s Osteopathic Center for Children. I am thrilled to bring Druelle to explore with us his further developments in the correlation of the Central Chain, the Chakras, and Somatic- Emotional health.
  •  For those who wish to further their professional education and clinical skills with the Druelle Endocranial Spasm courses,  this is a timely offering from internationally recognized osteopath Philippe Druelle, providing essential osteopathic teaching and practical clinical applications.
