This course has been organized by the Filum Academy Barcelona ® in collaboration with Institut Chiari & Siringomielia & Escoliosis de Barcelona . The attendeesare mental health professionals who are interested in the “ Filum Disease ” and the psychological changes caused by this condition, as well as the role of psychotherapy in the post-sectioning of the filum terminale rehabilitation process.

On October 23 rd , the closing ceremony of the 3 rd edition of the course on " Diagnosis and treatment of the Filum Disease " was held in the Central Hall of the Filum Academy Barcelona ® . This is the only course approved at international level to qualify for the accreditation of the FILUM SYSTEM ® SANITARY method. For five days, the doctors had the first hand opportunity to go through the twelve protocols that comprise this method in an intensive form, alternating theoretical training with several case studies. In continuation, the diplomas and accreditations were delivered to the course participants. Please enjoy the photos from this past event.

On 14 November, we had the pleasure to witness the closure of the course “Diagnosis and treatment of the filum disease” , 2nd edition, in the main lecture room of the Filum Academy Barcelona ® .     The event was sponsored by the Chiari & Scoliosis & Syringomyelia Foundation and counted with the presence of Dr Alfonso Rodríguez-Baeza, Anatomy and Embryology professor of the Autonomous University of Barcelona. He delighted the participants with a splendid keynote speech with the title “Filum Terminale”.   

The 2 nd International Filum System ® Sanitary Course will be taking place in Barcelona, Spain, between 10 and 14 November 2014, presented by the “ Filum Academy Barcelona ® ” and the   “Chiari & Scoliosis & Syringomyelia Foundation” (CSSF), with the cooperation of the “Institut Chiari & Siringomielia & Escoliosis de Barcelona” .

  Today we would like to share a statement by Dr Royo Salvador regarding the advances in the application of the Filum System ® and the medical partnerships that are being formed in order to make the method available to patients on an increasingly broader level.   "Throughout my life as a researcher, I often wondered about the characteristics that would be required of the specialists that would join the Project and make their own the scientific, technical as well as care-related advances involved in a method such as the Filum System ®. In essence, it was absolutely necessary to establish the criteria to define good travel companions.

Dear students,   In the name of everyone at the FILUM ACADEMY BARCELONA®, we would like to welcome you all dearly to this academic year 2014-2015. Since ancient times, mankind has focused on dealing with symptoms of the most varied diseases. Centuries later we see that many of the great names in medicine, those that really left a mark in history, took a step further by interpreting the symptoms in order to find their causes.
