Are Benzos Contributing to MSK Symptoms? 25/03/2026
|
Are your patients’ medications contributing to their MSK symptoms? - with Liz Carson
Wednesday 25th March - 7.00pm
Musculoskeletal symptoms don’t always originate where we expect.
Join us for an insightful webinar exploring how prescribed medications such as benzodiazepines, Z drugs and antidepressants may contribute to MSK pain and dysfunction — whether through side effects, transitory reactions, or withdrawal symptoms. This session will support practitioners in broadening their clinical reasoning and considering medication-related influences when assessing and managing MSK presentations.
Key themes include:
- How these medications can contribute to MSK symptoms
- Recognising transitory symptoms vs longer-term effects
- MSK presentations related to medication side effects
- Understanding withdrawal-related symptoms
- Integrating this awareness into MSK assessment and management
Your Presenter: Liz Carson
Liz is a retired chiropractor and is a 'lived experience practitioner', bringing together academic knowledge with real-world insight. Her unique perspective bridges clinical understanding and patient experience, offering practical, reflective learning for MSK professionals.

NLP For Patient Consultations, Tuesday 28th April 2026
|
NLP Techniques for your Initial Patient Consultation
Tuesday 28th April, 7.30pm
Enhancing diagnostic insight and strengthening the therapeutic relationship
With Mary Young
Standard medical history questions can take on an entirely new meaning when viewed through the lens of Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP). In this webinar, we’ll explore how subtle shifts in language, listening, and observation can reveal deeper insights into a patient’s experience, helping chiropractors improve diagnostic accuracy while building stronger therapeutic rapport.
You’ll discover how NLP-informed communication can transform the initial consultation from a routine information-gathering exercise into a powerful clinical tool.
In this session we’ll cover:
- How NLP principles can enhance the patient history process
- Recognising key language patterns that reveal underlying drivers of pain and behaviour
- Practical techniques to build rapport and trust from the very first consultation
- Using everyday consultation questions to uncover clinically meaningful insights
