Motion Palpation and Chiropractic Technic Sells Out!

Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

After a little more than one year from the date of publication, MPI's first textbook Motion Palpation and Chiropractic Technic has almost sold out its first edition. The book, authored by Drs. Richard C. Schafer and Leonard J. Faye, is celebrating its second edition. (Please see ad on page XX.)

The Motion Palpation Institute is pleased to announce that it is now able to offer the book at $69. If anyone could ever predict with any certainty what impact a newly-released text will have on its readers, then the foreview from the chiropractic profession this past year would indicate that Motion Palpation and Chiropractic Technic is well on its way to becoming a classic. This is a unique, one-of-its-kind text that will prove its value time and again for years to come. With a price this attractive, those who may not have purchased the book the first time, will want to now obtain a copy of the "MPI book", while this valuable offer lasts.

When Radiculopathy Isn't Radiculopathy: A Clinical Series (Pt. 1)
hen Radiculopathy Isn’t Radiculopathy: A Clinical Series

Radicular-like pain of the upper and lower extremities is among the most common presentations in musculoskeletal and spine-related practice. Traditionally, these symptoms are interpreted through a disc-centric and dermatomal framework, often leading clinicians to attribute limb pain, paresthesia or perceived weakness to spinal nerve-root pathology. While this approach is appropriate in cases of true radiculopathy, it frequently falls short when symptoms fail to follow consistent dermatomal patterns or correlate poorly with imaging findings.

Chronic Sciatica: Ending the Relapse Cycle
Chronic Sciatica: Ending the Relapse Cycle

A 46-year-old male presented to our clinic with a seven-year history of recurrent low back pain with sciatica. He reported stiffness and discomfort that worsened with prolonged sitting both at his desk job and during evening television time. The patient had seen multiple chiropractors over the years. In every case, spinal manipulation and other passive treatments would bring gradual symptom relief over 2-3 months. However, within another 3-6 months, the symptoms would return. Frustrated – and now considering a spinal injection and possibly surgery if that failed, he came to our office seeking a different approach.
