Consolidate your clinical reasoning with:
Interaction: To promote comprehensive discussion bring questions and your experiences with patients since Level 1 and take full advantage of Dean's unparalleled experience.
Understanding: Know why, in the event of an adverse reaction, it occurred and ... how to deal with it!
Confidence: Increase confidence in your choice of treatment direction and technique. No more uncertainty.
Clarity: Develop clarity around un-resolving (as the technique is sustained) headache and how you can still achieve a positive result even though headache reproduction remains unchanged.
Realisation: Your already improved outcomes will be significantly progressed because you will realise the importance of 'Battle 1' versus 'Battle 2'. Be able to identify why progress is not as it should be.
Application: Dean's role is to facilitate and accelerate your progress... this is done through your participation in the examination of 4-6 patients.

Course Participant Feedback:
I Was Sold on the Watson Headache® Approach after treating my first patient following the completion of the Level 1 Foundation Course. When a lady, with a 20 year history of weekly migraine, living on strong medication, with 10 days of her month ruined by intense headache, said that she has been headache free for 6 months, I sat up and took notice. I have since successfully treated many more headache sufferers. I have been surprised by just how many headache symptoms have a cervicogenic component.
I have recently completed the Level 2 Consolidation Course. This brought more clarity to my clinical reasoning. I feel I will now be more efficient when treating future headache patients. The division of Dean’s approach into staged “Battles” also really helped organise my assessment strategy.
The Level 1 when combined with the Level 2 gives the practitioner a powerful and clear strategy for headache management. There are very few courses I have completed that have changed my practice to the extent that I can make such a remarkable difference to the lives of patients.
