Welcome back for more!! This episode is a special episode to us because we feel it answers a lot of questions that young students and docs have out in the field.

The Neurocentric Approach was created to assist us in narrowing down a clinical diagnosis. We discover the clues from the body because the body is telling us a story, and it's up to use to figure out what it's saying. We cover top down starting at the brain to the cord, nerve roots, peripheral nerves and finally cutaneous nerves. You won't find clinical reasoning quite like this anywhere else. Enjoy the show!
