Frequently Asked Questions
When can I start training?
We accept new students in January of every calendar year. As of now it is not possible to begin training at any other time.
What are the requirements to become a Board Certified Developmental Alphabiotics?
It is required that you attend a minimum of 8 core classes. We host 3-day training weekends once a month, January through August, with our Annual Recertification and Homecoming Event in September. Each class is held from Thursday through Saturday, from 9:00am to 5:00pm.
It is required that you have a passing grade in a college level course on anatomy and physiology. If you have not yet taken anatomy and physiology, we can direct you to a convenient, online classroom training.
Alphabiotic course work will be outlined throughout the program in which you will undergo rigorous training and assessment. Completion will require testing of your application of the Alignment Process, Alphabiotic science and philosophy, and other academics presented throughout the program. Upon Board Certification, you will have the hands-on skills, academic knowledge and business plan needed to confidently open an Alphabiotic center to help others more effectively deal with stress.
How much time do I have to complete the training program?
You have a total of 18 months to complete the 8 classes, although it is strongly recommended you take 3-4 consecutive classes before any break, and only if absolutely necessary. Developing muscle memory through repetition is key to learning Alphabiotics so it’s important you get a solid foundation in place and not slip backward during a missed class. On the other hand, if you are looking to get started in this field right away, many students complete the training in the same academic year!
What is the cost of training?
$12,000. This includes eight core classes, textbooks, online student resources and a portable Alignment table designed by Dr. Virgil Chrane specifically for the field of Alphabiotics. A tuition plan is offered for an additional $500 for those preferring to make installments. Candidates must pay their tuition in full prior to receiving their certificate and the Board’s permission to practice.
Do you require continuing education?
As with all high-level professional trainings in the health and wellness field, Alphabioticists must undergo an annual assessment for the purpose of ensuring quality – in this case, and most importantly, of your hands-on technique. For each year of practice attendance at the Annual Recertification and Homecoming Event is mandatory to receive this guidance, as well as continuing education in legal compliance, Health Freedom updates, etc. This is an enjoyable time to come together with your new Alphabiotic family and receive feedback on your skills, business strategy, networking and group powwow – all with a view to keeping you and your profession ever moving toward its greatest expression of excellence.
Are you the only facility where you can learn Alphabiotics? Yes
This is the only genuine training academy with the only certified teaching instructors in the world. There are others who have not been trained or certified and then run off with the teachings and are not in good standing with the academy in both the United States and Mexico. No matter what anyone claims, if they are not listed on this website, they are not certified or permitted to teach the true Virgil Chrane Alphabiotics Philosophy and/or Methodology. We have no idea what they are teaching and we cannot and do not stand behind them.
How is the Alignment performed?
The Alignment involves several elements only an Alphabioticist is trained to perform and certified to deliver:
- The participant makes himself comfortable on a specially designed couch
- Brain stress levels are established using a sophisticated bio-mechanical test
- A singular movement commencing at the occiput releases stress instantly
- A retest confirms the result to the member’s satisfaction
The process creates a stress pattern interrupt prompting the nervous system to conduct a systems check. Because you were designed for whole brain function in alpha, this is the mode it defaults to.
The location, amplitude, speed and direction of the movement all combine to make the process safe and effective. It is completed in just seconds and you will feel and see the results immediately.
Is Alphabiotics Safe?
Please consider the following facts:
- That it is safe is intuited by your own body. Far from engaging the stress response (the sympathetic ‘fight or flight’ mechanism, accompanied by an adrenaline rush, anxiety, elevated heart rate, frequent, shallow respiration, etc.) the Alignment prompts one’s nervous system to enter the parasympathetic ‘growth and repair’ mode, accompanied by reduced brain frequencies, a dramatic drop in tension, full abdominal breathing and a profound state of relaxation and awareness.
- Since it was discovered in the 1920’s by Dr. Virgil Chrane Sr. the process has been employed countless millions of times the world over.
- Board certification in Developmental Alphabiotics may only be sought after completing a closely supervised and rigorous training that includes hours of practical (hands on) training. Schooling takes place on location at the Alphabiotics Academy in Dallas, TX and approaches a year in length, with mandatory recertification every 12 months thereafter.
Is Alphabiotics a religion?
Absolutely not. Years ago there were Alphabioticists who chose to organize themselves in churches to achieve specific legal objectives. Today, most Alphabioticists use an LLC to run their businesses.
What is the difference between Alphabiotics and Chiropractic?
Alphabiotics focuses on bringing the hemispheres of the brain into balance so the innate wisdom of the body can heal itself and how stress is causing the brain to be locked in an inappropriate stress state. Chiropractic is focused on manipulation and adjustment of the skeletal system.
How do I know who is legitimately trained in Alphabiotics when so many people say they are doing it?
Our Alphabiotic Directory has all of the current Certified Developmental Alphabioticists in good standing.
Will Alphabiotics fix my neck pain?
We do not claim to fix, heal, treat, or diagnose. We help the brain and body get into the most favorable circumstances to heal itself. This could help a multitude of health issues as so many issues are caused by stress. Alphabiotics is a stress release and recovery system. As the body releases stress, the cause of the problem, we notice that quite often the problem resolves itself.
