Here's Something Really Cool Coming to the Locals Community This Month!

Anthony was treating an ultra-marathoner named Ryan, who just finished a 163 km run to raise money. Ryan ran 163km straight and Anthony treated him at all hours along the way to keep him going.

Well, that resulted in a lot of video footage and now this will become a part of a new webinar for Locals Supporters this month! Anthony will talk about how he treated Ryan before the race to get him ready and what he did during the run to keep him going. He will add a PPT and Ryan will also be on for the Q&A!

This will result in the May Locals Webinar being all about this, with video of the actual event and Anthony treating him. PLUS, Ryan will be on one of the LIVE Q&A session too!

Stay tuned and watch your email for updates!

Cross-education clinical application

@Exstoreman: I’ve been reading about cross-education and the role of supraspinal and corticospinal neural drive when working a muscle contralaterally, and it made me start thinking about the clinical implications. For example, could contralateral needling- esp MP’s- be helpful in a post-surgical shoulder patient who isn’t far enough along to treat the involved side yet? Eccentric movement seems to provide the strongest stimulus for cross-education, but since needling also has neural effects, I’m curious whether similar principles might apply clinically.
