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!
Thank you to @susan_beck for showing me this

We just had the Intro to Lumbar Spinal Stenosis webinar last night, and today Lolane gets a new patient inquiry through her website.
This is and will only become more of, a very common condition people seek treatment for!

I had a new patient come in yesterday (63 years old, female) with complaints of burning, numbness, and hot pain in the lateral portion of her right thigh for 5 years. She says it's always there but doesn't cause pain or disrupt her lifestyle so she lives with it. She was also VERY sensitive in that area to touch. She has no history of spine issues. She is active and exercises 5-6x/week, primarily walking and running.
Lower exstore scan revealed weakness in bilateral psoas, which I restored using the pointer plus. Not sure if its related to the case, but she is active so i knew it would benefit her anyway.
I did some local needles on motor points of the quadriceps which was VERY sensitive for her. She could not tolerate needles on that leg, but everywhere else was fine. Since I already had her in that position, I did distal and auricular points. I finished up with light gua sha to draw blood to the area.
After doing research, I found what she is describing is Meralgia Paresthetica. This ...
Hello,
Lately, I have been using relatively extensively the perfusion treatment, particularly on a patient suffering from MS. The benefits in this latter case were quite amazing, i.e., a significant improvement of energy and mobility, as well as of the general spirit. I treated this patient with almost exclusively EA perfusion treatments in the upper (T1-T5) and lower (T10-S2) segments, with weekly sessions over a period of 6-8 weeks.
This being mentioned, I also started wondering if the perfusion treatment may also offer benefits in terms of high blood pressure. Research has shown that acupuncture can reduce both the systolic BP (~ 5–10 mmHg) and the diastolic BP (~ 3–6 mmHg), as a result of (i) a reduction of the sympathetic nervous system, (ii) an increase of the parasympathetic activity, and (iii) the release of neurotransmitters such as endorphins, serotonin, and nitric oxide. An improvement of the vascular function and peripheral circulation is also evoked as a possible ...
