Take your NISE-Stim skills to the next level with this advanced, in-person course focused on tone modulation, posture correction, and spinal alignment.
Learn to refine stimulation parameters and electrode placement to address complex neuromotor challenges.
You’ll Learn:
• Advanced treatment strategies for scoliosis, kyphosis, and lordosis
• Specialized approaches for severe hypotonia, including SMA, to activate and strengthen low-tone muscles
• Techniques to modulate tone — excite nerves for activation or dampen activity to reduce spasticity and dystonia
• Clinical reasoning for postural correction and neuromuscular balance
• Extensive hands-on practice and clinical case demonstrations
Eligibility: Open exclusively to therapists who have completed NISE-Stim Level 1.
Course Fee for Each Course:
- $660 Early Bird

- $560 when you sign up for Level 1 + Level 2 together
Combined Option: Level 1 + Level 2 (4 Days Total)
Join both courses as a complete 4-day certification experience — from foundational learning to advanced application of NISE-Stim.
Gain a deep understanding of how to activate, modulate, and realign through spinal stimulation to improve function, tone, and posture.
Special Offer:
When registering for both Level 1 & Level 2 at the same time, save $100 off the Level 2 course fee (Level 2 cost reduced to $560).
