Ok, silly question - when we are doing the perfusion tx - let's say Upper Perfusion Tx (T1 thru T5) - there are 5 needles on each side. I know we cross as we attach the leads alternating black & red but if there are only 4 leads to attach, which level are we leaving out since there are 5.
We all have those patients who come in with osteoarthritic hips. This seminar dives into efficient, effective ways to get them moving again—definitely worth checking out!
In this webinar Anthony goes over assessment and understanding of the major scoliotic curves. This includes how to base rehab prescriptions and how to select acupuncture treatment protocols for major scoliotic curves. We also review scoliotic curves on Xray and review what muscles are affected and the structural implications.
Here is the list of webinars in the library.

R hand, arm, shoulder weakness after West Nile encephalopathy and frozen shoulder
@Exstoreman I previewed this case a few calls ago and finally had the first 2 visits with this 66 y.o. (highly skeptical) male patient who contracted west nile virus in August 2024, was in ICU for a month (little movement, muscle atrophy) and would like to regain mobility.
Though he has recovered a lot of his strength, he can barely use his right hand: his thumb and the intrinsic muscles of the hand don't work well to grip things; fine motor functions limited. THumb web appears extremely atrophied.
He also has frozen shoulder: he has no pain, but P-ROM limited to about 90 degrees in flexion of GHJ (active ROM can go to about 70). He struggles to use the arm to push down, and would like to be able to raise his arm overhead, but the use of his hand is his main priority. Nerve testing suggests R upper extremity weakness, "multifactorial" numbness "degeneration" at C6 C7 nerve roots as well as along the peripheral nerve ...
Let's hear some wins!
Now that my practice runs so smoothly thanks to years of experience with Exstore, most of my participation in this community is when I hit the wall on a case. So no one gets to hear about all the fantastic daily wins.
I'm sure this may be true of all of you, so let's share some of those more interesting or surprising instances where Exstore and the principles we've learned here have really made a huge impact!
I'll go first:
3 days ago, new patient came in with low back pain and pins/needles down the back of his left leg.
Exstore revealed inhibition of most muscles of the left hip, including a positive SLR. His L leg couldn't be elevated beyond 30-40 degrees without 8/10 pain. Any higher was 10/10.
With a few needles and soft tissue work, his pain was down to 1-2/10 in 12 minutes. He scheduled his follow up, practiced nerve flossing, paid and was gone in less than 40 minutes total.
He returned today without pain. We'll see him again once next week to make ...
