Why would we stimulate the phrenic nerve? This can be very helpful when we're trying to improve the function of breathing and the diaphragm and work on core canister issues.

Locating palpating and needling the calf and lower leg
I was at the FSOMA conference With ASE Seminars this past weekend. This Is always a fun weekend and it’s a really great conference. I absolutely recommend going.
This year we openly talked about dry needling. There was definitely some pushback and a good number of practitioners are still very hurt by the words and get upset when they hear them.

Do you have dry needling on your website? You should. Dry needling is becoming a vey popular search term for Google. Patients will call and ask for it. Patients woll seek you out if you offer it.
Here is just the latest patient request.
Does this mean you’ll only use dry needling on the patient? No. You’ll use any other techniques and go through your exam the same. But the patient is asking for dry needling because one of two reasons. They had a friend their family member have it and it helped them a lot, or they’ve had it and it helped them a lot.
