Advanced Practitioner Conference - 2026

Recently, brain retraining, neuroplasticity and nervous system regulation have become hot topics in medicine, with many health practitioners already incorporating these protocols for better outcomes. Find out about these latest cutting-edge interventions from a researcher and clinician in the field, and how it can be incorporated into your health practice, improving the lives of your patients.

Many chronic illnesses such as Long Covid, ME/CFS, Fibromyalgia, Mold, Lyme, POTS, and more can be challenging to treat, with relapses common and long-term solutions sometimes being elusive. 

In this session you’ll learn about the underlying neurological hypothesis behind these approaches, and how new research is supporting the view that many chronic inflammatory health conditions may originate in the brain.

This opens up the search for more effective complementary treatments. Grounded in scientific evidence with 5 published RCTs and 2 published clinical audits, brain retraining has earned endorsements from a diverse range of health professionals, including functional and integrative doctors, naturopaths and nutritionists.

In this presentation, you will learn more about the research and evidence.
