Posts re evidence discussion have been moved. to Foot mobilisation and manipulation any evidence ? thread

The last 3 times I've tried to fly anywhere mother nature has said not today son....

So if your a betting man wednesday the 13th put money on european flight issues from floods, volcanic eruptions, snow, etc etc

 

Back at work after the course No mother nature stopped me this time.

Thanks Ted enjoyed the dvd will be a close friend for awhile I think ?

Also great to put a few faces to names.

Thanks again Ted and - plant the seed and grow the tree !!

 

Agreed. A very enjoyable course, well delivered. Very practical which was good. I think everyone came away with a good degree of confidence to go and apply what they practiced.

Got some stuff to upload when I get around to it....

 

Mike and Robert,

Good to meet you guys over the weekend, and, as Mike said, put faces to names.

I definitely enjoyed the course and will continue to apply the techniques. Level 2 certainly does boost your confidence.

I will also try to get more involved in arena discussions! I know I have lots to learn!

Kind regards,

Dave

P.S. Mike, I have about 40 minutes of footage from level 2 which I will send over to Ted, so you may have another DVD to look at soon.

 

I have to say that the participants´ enthusiasm and willingness to take on board some fundamental physiological principles and apply it to foot joint connective tissue restrictions was totally inspiring.

I´m always thrilled to hear of pods taking away new skills and literally applying them to their patients on their first day back at work. I told you it was going to be 'practical' and already, patients are benefitting!

I´m now in Portugal getting ready to see FMT applied Portugese style...

Ted

Mike, the seeds are being watered and fertilised...
