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!

January’s webinar is here! This one is a favorite of mine because it includes the fascial lens when teaching the movement of the foot and ankle. It cover anatomy, fascia, and accessory motion of the foot and ankle. Definitely worth checking out.

73 / Female Leg Weakness and confusion
So I was working on this case for drop foot, and lower body weakness. I wanted to follow up on this case to discuss possible medication removal resulting in improved and consistent firing compared to when she was on the medication. Sudden improvements in mental state, confidence in movement, and improved strength.
There is a medication called Auvelity. Its a combination of Dextromethorphan and Wellbutrin (bupropion).
Dextromethorphan is normally used as a cough suppressant in OTC cough syrups from what i understand by reducing the overfiring of nerve impulses that cause cough. In higher doses though it can cause loss of some motor function, make it harder to coordinate movement, and can impair some receptors associated with memory. It can be classified in higher doses as a dissociative drug like ketamine. It is used recreationally by some people.
2-3 weeks off of this medication she feels alive and coordination is phenomenal but I saw changes week 1 ...
NIH Safety and Efficacy External Link
Found this the other day and wanted to share. Very good article to external link to show clinical research on many areas with acupuncture along with safety and efficacy in one place.

Sorry for missing the comments — I spent the last four hours in clinic treating 20 patients using electro-acupuncture. The invitation for tonight’s 8:30 PM webinar still stands and is open to everyone, including those who may have expressed themselves less professionally here. Anonymous attendance is welcome for anyone who prefers it:
