Published: Mon, 09/12/16

You are receiving this e-blast because you signed up for these e-blasts on FourLeg.com.  If for some reason, this makes you unhappy... then unsubscribe at the bottom.  But for everyone else... HEY!  Let's get on with the show!
Bring it on Fall, I feel way more productive now than all of the summer months combined!
The week ahead...
So my head this week is all consumed with getting ready for the course I am teaching next weekend (Fri - Mon).  It's our Advanced Canine Rehab course for the Animal Rehab Division of the Canadian Physiotherapy Association.  I teach this once a year, and it's lots of work:  Teaching, organizing materials, dog participants, my facility, communicating with the participants, and then just getting there ahead of time to put on the coffee! So I could well be a basket case for the next e-blast!

Okay, enough about me.  Now on to YOUR learning for this week!  But first...
 
Blog:  Let's be objective!!!
This week, I am just passing along some more great info that has come across my desk:  

Reviews courtesy of APTEI / Bahram Jam PT (www.aptei.com).
This guy does some great reviews!  And this one I thought I would like to share with you folks.  I think we have a tendency to learn something new and add it to everything we do, without thinking or learning about what the research actually says.  So… here’s some info as it related to neck pain.  I would think that it could translate to other parts of the spine as well.

ARE YOU LOOKING to include SHOCKWAVE in your practice?
I have just the thing!  I highly recommend the unit that I have and use at my clinic.  And now, I can bring it to you!  

Check out this page:  http://fourleg.com/Shockwave   for more information.

And if you're interested, give me a shout and I'll happily send along all of the details.  
RADIAL SHOCKWAVE rules!  I am loving it as an adjunct to my other therapies, and am seeing amazing results with it when used on osteoarthritis, tendinosis lesions, and lumbosacral disc disease.  (There are more things it can treat, but these three things keep it hopping at my clinic!)

The price is right (in Canadian Dollars), and I can ship anywhere in North America.  (For those of you overseas, I can put you in touch with local distributors nearer to you!)

Okay... so check it out if you've ever been interested!

P.S. Helpful Hints for NEW members...
If you are new to FourLeg and happen to be having any issues with watching the videos, you will want to cut and paste the following url into your browser bar:
http://www.fourleg.com
Sometimes after people sign up on the secure page on FourLeg, their computer remembers the secure address for the website (https:), and takes them to the site via that prefix... but the rest of the pages aren't secured, only the sign up page... and if you go to watch the videos on the https:... site, then it won't allow you to watch them. So going to the http:// version will make everything turn out okay!!!

As members, If you are wanting to search a topic... then locate the white search bar in upper right hand side of the screen when you log in & are on the members' side of the site.  This is an easy way to find content in all formats!
