Congratulations to Dr. Terrance Manning on earning the American Academy of Orthopedic Medicine (AAOM) prestigious Interventional Regenerative Orthopedic Medicine Certification (IROM-C)—a remarkable achievement that places him among an elite group of physicians advancing the field of non-surgical orthopedic care. Dr. Terry Manning is further distinguished as the first naturopathic physician to receive this certification, marking an important milestone not only in his career but also for the naturopathic profession as a whole.
What Is IROM Certification?
IROM-C (Interventional Regenerative Orthopedic Medicine Certification) is an advanced credential awarded by the American Academy of Orthopedic Medicine (AAOM). It recognizes physicians who demonstrate expertise in evidence-based, image-guided regenerative treatments for musculoskeletal conditions.
The IROM-C certification establishes a rigorous standard of excellence in regenerative orthopedic medicine and reflects mastery of advanced injection techniques used in non-surgical pain care.
Why Dr. Terrance Manning’s IROM Certification Matters
Dr. Terry Manning’s IROM-C represents more than an individual accomplishment—it sets a new benchmark in regenerative orthopedics. As the first naturopathic physician to earn IROM certification, he is helping bridge the gap between naturopathic medicine and advanced interventional orthopedic care.
Despite completing a three-year residency focused exclusively on regenerative medicine and practicing for over a decade, Dr. Manning has pursued additional intensive training. In less than a year, he completed advanced procedural coursework, participated in an international medical brigade treating hundreds of patients, and passed both written and hands-on examinations.
This achievement underscores his commitment to delivering the highest standard of care through non-surgical, evidence-based treatments.
