Think, Read, & Grow Rich in the Mind!
Okay, I'll keep this quick, because I've got lots of reading for you down below! Snow has melted, we had a few days of sun, but a cold rainy weekend.  I've been enjoying my purchase of Philosopher's Notes (condensed audio versions of popular non-fiction books), but I've been a slacker with my Meditation training.  I taught a course last weekend - Advanced Canine Rehab - at my Calgary clinic… which had me wiped out until today really!  (Sorry if your e-mail is one of the ones I've not gotten to yet!)  Now, enough of my chatter… on with the show!
My Rib Article!
I'm pretty excited to share this with you!  The article I wrote for Topics in Companion Animal Medicine is finally out!  Hurrah!  The FIRST clinical article with descriptive accounts on canine rib dysfunctions available in a Pubmed Indexed peer reviewed journal!

So, Members, you need to Login, Click Articles, Scroll down, way down to the topic heading THORAX.  You'll find it there!

3.  Could this be a result of the original iliopsoas injury?

Early Post-op Movement

Postoperative joint stiffness is still a major complication of both open as well as arthroscopic rotator cuff repair procedures. Although it is often suggested that early passive motion (EPM) may have beneficial effects on pain and functional limitations, there is no consensus on this subject yet.

Paralyzed Rats
Using electrical stimulation, scientists at the Swiss Federal Institute for Technology (EPFL) have helped paralyzed rats with severed spinal cords walk again. And it might not be too long before this promising treatment starts to help people as human trials could begin as early as next summer. The study has been published in Science Translational Medicine.
