Referral Requirements

Basic adjusting requirements Use D.N.F.T. exclusively as structural technique, without mixing other diagnostic or adjusting procedures with it. Utilize D.N.F.T. diagnostic and adjusting procedures as taught by Dr. Chris John at seminars. Utilize D.N.F.T. materials including: 100% white cotton patient gowns. Standard D.N.F.T. tools such as thumb cot, grease pen, copper. Specially tailored shoes for leg measuring. Seminar requirements: Attend at least one seminar every year.  Every year means every calendar year, i.e. Jan 1 to Dec 31. Attend at least five units of seminars each two consecutive years. (A three day seminar counts as three units, and a two day seminar counts for two units, a one day is one unit.). At least once every five years, attend an Advanced Seminar. At least once every four years, attend an Extremities Seminar. If one does not attend a seminar (such as Full Spine) that is scheduled for one's home area, then a doctor must specify which one (or more) seminar(s) that he/she will attend later in that year in order to fulfill requirements.  Registration and a non-refundable deposit will be required for such seminar(s), or referral list status is suspended until requirements are fulfilled. Test and other requirements for referral list: Pass a written knowledge proficiency test periodically as specified by Dr John. Be evaluated on motor skills at seminars by Dr John. If a doctor is given referral list status for the first time and has not yet attended an Extremities or Advanced Seminar, then this doctor has one year within which to attend an Extremities Seminar and two years within which he or she must attend an Advanced Seminar. If a female doctor is already on the referral list and has a baby, there is a one year grace period during which time her referral list status can continue without seminar attendance.
