What Does C.C.E.P. Stand For?

Thomas R. Lamar, D.C., C.C.E.P.

If you are wondering what all the letters after Dr. Lamar’s name stand for, you are not alone. Many people correctly figure out that “D.C.” means Doctor of Chiropractic, but the “C.C.E.P.” is a stumper. The “C.C.E.P.” signifies that he holds postgraduate training as a Certified Chiropractic Extremities Practitioner.

So, not only does Dr. Lamar render chiropractic care to the spine, but he is an expert at adjusting the other joints of the body, such as the wrist, elbow, shoulder, hip, knee, ankle, jaw, and rib cage.

Since graduating from the 105-hour C.C.E.P. program in 2001, Dr. Lamar has been able to help a multitude of patients not only with acute injuries to the extremity joints, but also those with chronic, non-responsive spinal problems that have undetected extremity issues as complicating factors.

As a requirement of his C.C.E.P. designation, Dr. Lamar takes periodic continuing education related to extremity adjusting to keep his skills and knowledge in this area sharp.

To locate a C.C.E.P. in your area, visit the Council on Extremity Adjusting website.

Dr. Lamar Asks some important questions of interest to Kingston residents - Chiropractor Kingston Dr. Lamar Asks...

What happens if you stop chiropractic care when you feel better?
Many Kingston folks recognize that this predisposes you to a relapse. Chiropractors know that muscles and ligaments supporting the spine don't fully heal until after symptoms subside.
Can a chiropractor heal?
There's never been a case in which a doctor (chiropractor or otherwise) has formed scar tissue, mended a broken bone or cured a headache. Only you can do that. Turns out you're the doctor! All I do is help remove interferences to your body's healing ability. Ready to get started? Call our office today.
