First, I sincerely hope and pray that everyone of you and your family members, all those precious beings connected to you, are safe and healthy.

Like many of you I have had to close my practice. I'm going on my second week and we here in Washington state have been advised that this will likely continue for at least another 2-4 weeks.

Many of you are aware that I have been actively blogging about this issue.

The amount of research conducted since the early 2000's (post-SARS and MERS two of the most infamous coronavirus is in our recent past) is impressive.

While our practices are closed learning as much as we can about the pathophysiology and delatarious effects the coronavirus has on the viscera will better prepare us for when we reopen.

My plan, during this COVID-19 shutdown, is to help you navigate this information and gain a deeper understanding into the role YOU will play after this crisis has subsided. For all those precious patients of yours who have suffered or will suffer from this disease... YOU will play a vital role in their recovery!

Spending a little time now to gain a deeper understanding will payoff in dividends when you open your practice. 

The financial hit we manual therapists are taking is significant and my goal is to help you remain relevant in a post-COVID world!

Unfortunately, this is not the last we will see of this virus. We need to prepare ourselves and our patients for what is likely to come in the fall.

How can your Visceral Manipulation training be leveraged to help your patients in this post-COVID world?

• VM1 - Tools to help improve the function of the immune and detoxification systems by way of connecting to the vagus nerve through key "VM1" organs such as the stomach, liver, gallbladder, and small intestines.

• VM2 - Tools to help improve the function of the kidneys in order to assist in the neuroendocrine relationship between the viscera and the immune system.

• VM3 - Tools to help improve the cavitary pressures and thus optimize the viscera contained in the thoracic and abdominal cavities (key organs affected by COVID-19).

• VM4 - Tools to help improve cardiopulmonary function, which become critical for those who have suffering from post-COVID-19 complications.

To prepare us for working in a post-COVID world I am releasing a Coronavirus (COVID) mini-series of short video lessons through the month of April with a focus on the immune system and how we as manual therapists can benefit our patients after this crisis is over.
