Watch the recording of the live lab Q&A session last night. Thank you everyone who showed up!

Beginning - 4:58: Case study - weak finger abductors

4:58-15:10: Taping

15:10-24:55: Case study - chronic systemic patient with weakness of supination and pronation

24:55-43:25: Controlled pain modulation technique (distal acupuncture) @GB34 in chronic systemic patient; e-stim and rehab exercises for the chronic systemic patient; patient communication, treatment planning, and expectations

43:25-end: Using soft tissue; length of treatment does not mean better outcomes; avoiding the patient associating length of treatment with perceived value/effect

There are more nuggets in this recording, so it is best with the entire recording.

Soccer Player Gastroc Tears

Only seen him 1x so far, last week. He's 27 yo and has been playing soccer (recreationally) since he was little, loves it and wants to get back ASAP. He came in for R calf pain (dull, achey, worse at end of day after being on feet all day). History of multiple gastroc tears (11/2024, re-injured 05/2025, and again at the end of 2025 but is feeling much better since the start of 2026.

He also has a history of R quad and labrum tear in 2023/2024, currently asymptomatic. He pointed out a divet in upper R thigh.

This is what I treated:
1) Motor Points: R TFL (super tight like a rock), R glute med ant, R glute min, L TVA.

2) R calf adhesions Inline(4 points) followed by guasha

For further treatment, should I add:

  • Gastroc motor points?
  • Achilles paratendon treatment (in ankle webinar)?
  • Divet in the R upper thigh - should I address this in some way?
  • Other?
