You won't want to miss these seminars

1) The EXSTORE™ System in April in Tampa

If you haven't taken an in-person EXSTORE seminar yet, then it's time. Don't put it off another year. You are missing out on really knowing how to apply the system, and the in-person seminar has so many extras you can't get anywhere else. We do have a few repeat seats available at a reduced cost for those who would like to take it again.

2) 3-Day Sports Course, October in Mesa AZ with Anthony and James Werner, DC.

If you want to know how to treat athletes, this advanced course will prepare you to treat all athletes from hobbyists to pros. In addition to Anthony and his experience treating athletes, teaming up with James Werner takes it to a whole new level. James currently works full time treating athletes. His experience in sports injuries and treatments is vast. This course will cover assessment and treatment including understanding lines of tension/vectors, really understanding the mechanics involved in athletic movements, causes of injuries and performance issues. You will learn how to assess and treat athletes and bring them to their maximum performance. You will be able to specialize in treating athletes and will outperform practitioners of all backgrounds. If you really want to get into the sports niche, this is the class for you.

3) Clinical Intensive June: There are 3 spots left for Anthony's clinical intensive in Hamilton, ON. Treat 60 of his patients over 2 days and learn how to apply EXSTORE exactly like Anthony does, seeing multiple patients an hour easily, maximizing your patient work load and working more efficiently.

April EXSTORE is up now, as well as the Clinical Intensive. The Sports Seminar is not up yet.

Post herpatic neuralgia

I have a patient with post herpatic neuralgia affecting his upper back and chest. I have been treating him 3x a week with the upper perfusion treatment, first at 2hz, then at about treatment 6 with mixed frequency from 2hz-100hz. I have treated him 8 or 9 times with no change. Should I be doing something different?

Salivary glands (xerostomia)

Hello!

I started treating a patient (male 80y, very active – former professional athlete) who had radiation therapy (2024) applied to his throat and lower face areas, following a throat cancer. The radiation therapy had a heavy impact on his salivary glands, resulting in xerostomia (dry mouth).

The principles of my treatment plan include:

1. Electroacupuncture: Stimulate the involved nerves, i.e. the parasympathetic fibers of the glossopharyngeal (parotid gland) and the facial (submandibular & sublingual glands) nerves.
2. Electroacupuncture: Increase blood flow to the salivary glands.
3. Manual acupuncture: Improve the overall body fluids metabolism (TCM approach).

As for the EA, I am applying the 2-needle technique to the following pairs:

2Hz: RN23 – SI17 (for submandibular & sublingual glands)
5Hz: SJ17 – ST7 (for parotid gland)

QUESTIONS:

1. Did anybody have a similar case? If yes, how did you treat it and with what level of success?
2. Do you think that the ...

Bilateral arm pain and neuropathy

51 year old man with bilateral hand and wrist pain, numbness, and weakness. He gets numbness and tingling in 4th and 5th fingers and pain in thumbs and thenar area. Hands feel cramped and like they need to be stretched open. Weakness and zinging pain on gripping objects and opening jars, loss of hand strength.

Onset has been recent, over a 2 month time period.

I know it’s systemic but I did EXSTORE anyway and didn’t find anything that seemed like it would contribute to this. L side supraspinatus and serratus inhibited.

I have been doing perfusion treatment around c7-T3 twice a week for 2 weeks with no effect. Any thoughts? Not sure what else to do or test.
