It is with pleasure that I announce the North American Institute of Orthopaedic Manual Therapy(NAIOMT) course offerings in Hawaii for 2013. A full cycle(Levels I – III, Advanced Clinical Reasoning, Thoracic Spine, and Advanced Technique Review) which started on June 8, 2007 has been completed.

The three courses are the Level II Lumbopelvic-Hip, Level II Knee-Ankle-Foot, and Level IV Advanced Techniques-Manipulation.
