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!
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.

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 ...

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:
