Hi everyone,
I am looking to start a business/practice management idea exchange where we can get together once a month or once every few weeks and share ideas and questions on different aspects of running a practice.
This will be an open format - I am not looking to run it per se, rather just get practitioners together to discuss and hash out what may be holding us back, ways to improve, exchange ideas, talk about what has or hasn't worked, etc.
We can always have a theme to start each meeting off, for example, I can use a topic from my Ebook or something else that I learned along the way, and then have an open forum. Overall though, this would be a participant-guided forum.
This meeting series would be open to Locals supporters.
If you have a preference on days/times, please comment below. I am looking to start this in 2-4 weeks.
Thanks!
Josh
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.
Give this a read after you watch the video: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7689775/
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 ...
Hello Folks! Couple questions on perfusion protocol:
1. Would it still be effective to use the perfusion principle with only estiming 1 side? For example, pain in the left arm, using perfusion principle on only Left side UB 11-UB15 on the left side and connecting the leads to UB 11-Ub12?
2. In Exstore the leads are attached to right needle to left needle. Would if be effective to attach leads on all left side and all on right side? or must they be attached Right needles to Left needles. For example Right UB 11 to Right UB 12 leads on this side and then Left UB 11 to left UB 12, and so forth.
Thank you, Tina
