Welcome

As a practicing doctor of chiropractic for over 40 years I have realized that the most satisfying part of my practice has been to release patients from care as soon as they have reached maximum improvement. As a famous mentor of mine once stated: "Find it, fix it and leave it alone." For their own benefit, it is necessary to make patients less dependent on the doctor and teach them active care to maintain their progress. 

The second most satisfying aspect of practice has been the incorporation into daily practice the constant flow of new scientific information that relates to the clinical improvement of the patient. Of critical importance has been the incorporation of all valid methods and techniques of soft tissue evaluation and treatment. I believe that all joint manipulations of the human body require evaluation of the soft tissue attachments to these joints. Joints cannot move themselves and the relationship of surrounding muscles and connective tissue both near and far from the sources of pain must be analyzed and treated. Soft tissue techniques increase the effectiveness of chiropractic manipulation and are essential for the treatment of extremity lesions i.e. shoulder, hip, knee etc.

Thirdly, I feel an obligation to my profession to share what I have learned with other practitioners. This has been the impetus for my articles and my textbooks and my willingness to lecture on the benefits of soft tissue advances. A major purpose of this web site is to share information and provide links where information may be obtained.
