Sometimes doing what‘s best for the patient will go against dogma and tradition. And sometimes leaning more on science than on dogma will ruffle feathers and contradict the gurus and scholars of Traditional Acupuncture. That‘s OK! There‘s room for many styles and there are enough patients for all of us! I graduated at the top of my class with a Master‘s and a Doctorate in Traditional Chinese Acupuncture. I know the benefits of Traditional Acupuncture for many many conditions. But if you want fast and excellent results treating chronic pain, sports injury, over-use injury, flexibility and mobility, that is what I‘m passionate about and I‘m not going to apologize for great results or for sharing what I‘ve learned from Western Medicine using Acupuncture. The topics here will not be controversial unless you insist on holding onto dogma instead of being open to something new to you and that is based in science.

Double Crush Syndrome is mostly seen in the medical field as something rare that happens to people in an earthquake when a building collapses on them.
In the world of successfully treating peripheral neuropathies with Functional Acupuncture it's helpful to take a less restrictive definition of Double Crush.

Why I'm calling my style of acupuncture Functional Acupuncture.
Janda famously said that there are 2 schools of thought in musculoskeletal medicine. Stuctural and Functional. Most are still using the Structural approach (and our patients are paying the price - literally)

The functional approach to knee pain will look for movement dysfunction and attempt to correct it.
Others might blame arthritis, the patient's weight, L4-5 issues...
I'm going to look at joint pain as an issue of how the joint moves.

Very interesting case this week.
And a second case of crippling pain where all the doctors threw their hands up and said, "there's nothing we can do."

I recently treated my own suboccipital muscles and am now realizing how important it is to treat them on people with neck pain and restricted range of motion.
These are now in my arsenal for quality of life / mobility treatments.

Sounds strange but I don't treat pain.
I see patients for pain every day, but I'm not trying to treat their pain.
There's more to it than that.

Treating Seniors is a skill you need to learn and there are no books or courses to take.
Treating Pro Athletes gets you some prestige but the true test of your assessment and treatment skills as an acupuncturist (as well as your people skills) will be in treating an older population with sub-optimal health statuses.
