I’ve been working on something for a while now, and it’s finally ready.
The new EXSTORE directory is up on the dranthonylombardi.com website at:
https://dranthonylombardi.com/exstore-directory/
I decided that really the only way to assure consistency and standards, and to meet the expectations of those referring a patient, is to have the directory be only for those practitioners who attended a live EXSTORE seminar. There is nothing like learning these skills in person.
This directory will be the only thing posted in the groups and everywhere else. Practitioners or prospective patients looking for a practitioner in orthopedics, EA, motor points, MSK/pain, etc. will be directed to the EXSTORE directory.
These directory listings aren’t just your name, address, and phone number. They are complete listings that include a lot of options for adding additional information to your listing to help you stand out. There’s even a contact form that is added to your listing so prospective patients can contact you easily and fast.
If you attended a live EXSTORE seminar in 2019 or later, or attended one in 2018 and have taken additional training, email [email protected] for the link to create your listing.
All live seminars going forward include an EXSTORE directory listing.
Thank you!

Spring is coming… eventually. And when it does, runners will start emerging again, not just the die-hards who have been braving the cold all winter. I treat a whole spectrum of runners in clinic, from Ironman athletes to weekend joggers and everything in between. This webinar is an absolute goldmine, and I hope you get as much out of it as I have.
Happy March! ☘️ This session will introduce the foundational concepts of Exstore along with a real clinical case involving the management of a bone fracture in a competitive golfer. Practitioners will see how orthopedic acupuncture can be applied to support tissue healing, manage pain, and facilitate a safe return to activity. Whether you are new to Exstore or looking to deepen your clinical reasoning, this case-based discussion will offer practical insights you can bring directly into practice.
If you know a colleague who is curious about orthopedic acupuncture or interested in expanding their treatment approach, please feel free to share this event and help spread the word.

Hi, everybody.
@Exstoreman , I have a new patient with right metatarsal pain that has been going on and off for 2 years. (65 yo female, petite.) It started with Achilles' tendinitis and calf pain, then with foot pain as the calf pain subsided. Eventually, it went away, but came back after wearing a pair of boots with slightly elevated heels. Pain sometimes turns into numbness, and sometimes numbness extends to all toes. Her Tibialis Anterior and Peroneal Longus has trigger points. There is only a slight tightness in the medial gastrocnemius and Soleus. She can lift her big toe while standing without pain. Pain is worse when she is driving. The metatarsal gel pad is the only thing that alleviates pain. (Now she has an orthotic, which she is breaking in slowly.) I treated the Peroneal Longus and the Adductor Hallucis as the first treatment. 1) How do I test these muscles (or others)? 2) Should I be looking at other muscles? FYI, she did PT, Chiro, acu, anti-inflammatory ...
@JoshuaSwart you would be proud. I revised my entire home page today for more of a story driven experience from patient perspective. I'd love your opinion. I just need to change my global header links but I feel everything else is improved and I used my photo shoot pictures for alot of it. Should look very polished soon. I have just a few more condition pages to write and I'll have felt I niched down more with 24 common MSK condition and nervous system articles that can be rotated yearly.
