A child’s perspective

I love this, our clinic director in Portland forwarded it out to us. It’s an email from a new client and feedback she got from a young student. Gotta love childrens’ honesty.
And Polly, keep up the great work! You’ll soon be using that walker as a potted plant holder.

Good Advice

a friend forwarded this to me after having it forwarded to her. I liked it and thought I’d pass it on…………..

As mainstream media ownership becomes increasingly consolidated in the hands of fewer and fewer entities, money becomes issue in what news an outlet is permitted to report. We teach [...]

Vioxx studies often used “ghost authors”

I think the process is fundamentally corrupted by the enormous amounts of money involved and at stake. Here’s one example of that corruption. And I’ll [...]

Who knew Tasers could be so funny?

Our VP of Therapy, Brian Bradley, forwarded an email to me with this story. It gave me a good laugh and I figured some of you could use a good laugh, too. So here it is.
Last weekend I saw something at Larry’s Pistol & Pawn Shop that sparked my interest. The occasion was our 15th [...]

Using raw superfood technology to enhance postural change

I mentioned a few weeks back that I was interviewing a gentleman here in Austin, David Favor, about his superfood technology and how it can help people create and sustain postural change. My family and I have been using his products and are extremely impressed with them, and we’ve been recommending them to some of [...]

Badgers in San Diego?

Yes indeed, there’s been a sighting of numerous Badgers in San Diego. Unusual? Not particularly. It’s the University of Wisconsin’s women’s volleyball team. They included a lot of Egoscue work during their trip and blogged about it. You can read about it here, fun stuff.
