To find out more about ALF Therapy
Our patient friendly website has helpful information to support you in your journey in discovering the many benefits of ALF Therapy.
Is vetting an ALF provider important?
Absolutely. The choice of provider is a critical choice when considering the potential implications of choosing a provider without the training to support ALF Therapy as it has been created to do.
Why did the ALF InterFACE Academy, Inc remove their provider listing?
The responsibilty of connecting patients with providers is something that we take very seriously. Patients were calling us with valid concerns that they chose a provider who was on our listing yet had no training by Dr. Nordstrom and were disappointed in the outcome of their treatment. As a result, we agreed to remove the listing of providers without current training from Dr. Nordstrom and the ALF InterFACE Academy, Inc to prevent further confusion and disappointment.
What if the provider that is close to my home isn't trained by Dr. Nordstrom?
Many critical aspects of delivering ALF Therapy can only be learned through Dr. Nordstom and the ALF InterFACE Academy and/or The Synergy Academy. There are other ALF instructors that may teach a version of ALF that is not what Dr. Nordstrom advocates. As a result, receiving care from an ALF provider without proper training would mean that the treatment was not actually ALF Therapy, but an interpretation of it.
Announcement from Dr. Nordstrom
Training is critical in providing quality, authentic ALF Therapy.
Dr. Nordstrom and Dr. Tenholder are passionate about providing online and hands-on training to our community of dedicated ALF Therapy providers.
Regretfully, Dr. Nordstrom has made the decision to no longer endorse the AAGO (American Academy of Gnathologic Orthopedics) or the ALF Educational Institute or their training.
It is regretful to announce that the training provided through their organizations has strayed too far from the scientifically sound principles of ALF Therapy.
As a natural consequence, there have been providers that have relied on that training yet have not been seeing the amazing results enjoyed by properly trained ALF practitioners.
