Functional Acupuncture and a Real Pain Case

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)   Online Courses: https://richardhazel.podia.com  

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.   Online Courses: https://richardhazel.podia.com

Treating Seniors is a skill you need to learn and there are no books or courses to take.
