Adam Del Torto, DC

Dr. Adam Del Torto, a 1984 graduate of NYCC, is the founder and developer of a specialized "balloon assisted" cranial adjusting technique called Cranial Facial Release (CFR), which often works on last-resort patients who have not responded to other forms of conventional treatment. He has lectured at multiple chiropractic forums in both the U.S. and abroad, and his unique approach to cranial adjusting has generated interest and enthusiasm throughout the profession. He is also the creator of a "CHIROPRACTIC ROCKS" – an annual convention designed to "Shape the Future of Chiropractic and Create the Next Generation of Chiropractic Legends."

Guidelines vs. Care: Bridging the Gap

What happens when best practices for patient care fall outside what guidelines endorse or insurance will cover? More importantly, how can clinicians ethically and effectively integrate non-reimbursed services that improve function, reduce disability and support long-term outcomes?
