guys the spinal column is like a group of bricks. and muscles act like pulleys. Spinal bones dont just move on their own, look at the functions of bone. Movement is not one of them. Chiropractic is ok, but it needs soft tissue, deep tissue added, not just changing the air pressure bc it goes back to normal from muscle pull. This guy is pretty good, uses Muscle Energy and also Laser. But would like to see him add some more tissue work
@EuroPhantom22 You make a valid observation, and in fact my training began as a clinical myotherapist back in '84, did a three year apprenticeship and then began chiropractic school. The treatment you observe is supportive of that particular patient's level of self care, which is generally pretty good. When he was a new patient, the treatment you see would need to be different, or might well be lacking, as you suggest. And some chiropractic colleges now teach soft-tissue tech.
Not a big one for many of the medical chiro videos on youtube, but this is one of the few that actually make some sense. Still not getting behind the laser therapy though, just a bit far fetched for me, but I will say I am in no way shape or form a medical expert. SO I admit I can be wrong if there is some truth behind it.
@JAF30 I hear you. When I first heard of it I thought it was among the many non-sensical ideas and scams that are so often presented to me (as if all chiropractors are suckers for such hoodwinking). However, I was at an educational seminar and volunteered to be the demo model on stage while the instr showed what it can do for old inflammatory issues, which I have. Needless to say, I was impressed enough w/ what it did for me to commit to $15K on the spot. I wanted my patients to benefit2.
The science isn't there...the cake is a lie....if you really wanted to help people you should have gone to med school not slacked off in college and went to a chiropractic school instead. People feel better because of the "placbo effect"
@mrallen777 Oh, I see you are following me around with your discontent. Actually, I doubt that you have any idea of what the placebo effect really is, or means in clinical practice. And you certainly don't have any idea about what I did in school. My guess is that I will never run into you at a Mensa meeting. And, yes, I do have a membership card.
@BackCarePlus see your turning the discussion into something else....cool your real smart, your in Mensa, blah blah blah. That doesn't look past the fact that you are a fraud. I do know what the placebo effect is, and that's 90% of your work. Show me the science...credible science behind what you do
@mrallen777 That's a pretty bold statement coming from someone who has displayed such ignorance. I really can't imagine upon what evidence you choose to state the "fact" that I am a fraud. Maybe you're just upset because the drugs you peddle (your response on another page indicates you work for a pharma co.) cause side effects and death. I know for a fact that you'll find neither in my clinical history, nor in the majority of chiropractic treatment. But now we know the axe you grind.
@mrallen777 Where's your proof to the fraud statement. 1 thing,i learned years ago,people who try, as hard as,you do to prove a point don't usually have one.You have no credibility in my opinion and do not even know the person you are talking about,very Sad.You should be ashamed of yourself to speak to a respectable Dr like that.
@mrallen777 Experience it for yourself. My back has been seriously fucked up and adjusting it DOES relieve things like pinched nerves. No reputable chiropractor is going to make stupid claims like an adjustment will cure all stomach aches. You go there to relieve back pain and it does help a lot. Unless you have a damaged nerve or disc, in which chiropractic wouldn't be a really good idea. I don't see any reason for people to jump to conclusions about a trade they know nothing about.
@DarkFilmDirector I'm glad that you get relief from your back pain, and I agree that not all stomach aches (or any other pain, for that matter) will respond to chiropractic care. However, I fix more stomach aches these days than back aches, by combining the neurologic effects of chiropractic with proper nutrition. As a result, many of my patients have been relieved of conditions that did not respond to hospitals, drugs or surgery. And many disc problems do like chiropractic.
@BackCarePlus Well a person like me who has a history of chronic digestive orders such as ulcers, nausea, and IBS is certainly not going to be cured by these adjustments is what I mean. It's not a cure all. It's meant to relieve specific conditions that directly or indirectly related to spinal misalignment is my understanding of it.
@DarkFilmDirector I've got some personal experience w/ digestive issues myself, nearly died from peritonitis, and am alive to tell the tale because of a skilled surgeon and 16 days of i.v. antibiotics. It was humbling to my militantly anti-medical mindset. And having said that, the underlying mechanism to many chronic conditions is autonomic (nervous system) dysregulation. This system responds well to yoga, tai chi, chi gung, chiropractic, acupuncture, hence the anecdotal rpts.
Chiropractor's are simply con-artists with a reasonable knowledge of the spine and its relating nerves. What you do is 'pop' a few articulations yet you still think it's a medical profession... Physiotherapists actually know their stuff and don't take people money just for releasing gas by pushing on certain places and then have people leave thinking they're 'cured' of their pain even though it is only a very temporary release.
@121JAB121 You seem to enjoy rendering your opinion, on this and other videos, but I can knowledgeably say that you are incorrect and uninformed. In my practice, my patients actually report lasting relief and, in most cases, long-term correction of their underlying problem. BTW, what I do is definitely NOT the "medical profession". I think it is a shame that misinformed people believe that "medicine" equals "health", or even "physiology". But I may be going deeper here than you can.
@cobblestones5 I can't imagine why you would make such an uninformed statement. Perhaps it is simply something that you know nothing about, or have a hard time understanding. Nonetheless, you are wildly incorrect. Or, perhaps I don't understand what you mean.
@cobblestones5 It is certainly a light source, and you do see it blinking off and on, or "flashing" as you say. If that is all you know, then it's a pity you have no desire for more information, rather than assume that that paltry bit of knowledge is sufficient to claim ownership of an opinion worth sharing with a million people. I believe it is a sign of the decline of civilization.
@cobblestones5 No worries. The truth is that the field of Electro-Magnetics, which includes visible light, is so bizarre that I had to retire to a log cabin in the woods for two years to wrap my head around it, so I shouldn't be smug if people think that some of the most current technologies are preposterous. In fact, the MRI machine, which is practically taken for granted, was labeled as preposterous by many when the idea was first put forward. The world is not as it appears.
@cobblestones5 "He doesn't even have it next to her skin". You are aware that the "he" you refer to is the person your actually talking to? i.e the chiropractor.
@ShadowWinger99 More appropriate to call it Functional Neurology. Applied Kinesiology (AK) has become a very misunderstood name for the application of proper muscle testing procedures which can be used in the clinical evaluation of a wide range of physiologic functions. I am certified in AK, but don't believe I learned that particular facet of evaluation from my formal AK training, and I'm not sure if other AK docs use it. It helps distinguish the presence of occipital fixation.
@johndomenech1 I wonder why you would assume that what I said was BS, rather than maybe you didn't understand it. Maybe that is just the new reality of the internet culture, which seems to favor flaming and ad hominem attacks over civil discourse and the exchange of info in a respectful manner. And maybe you aren't really interested in learning anything new, just pretending that you know something. I don't know. Why don't you try asking?
@BackCarePlus I'm assuming you meant epithelial tissue not skin, because the type of epithelial tissue that makes up the skin is not the same that makes up the lining of the stomach or intestines. Both maybe epithelial tissue as they are a covering type of cell but they have separate properties including what can irritate them. Why don't you use the dang ole Internet and look it up or you can ask an M.D.
@johndomenech1 Well, I guess you didn't bother to look it up on the internet yourself, or you would have seen that "Epithelial tissue covers the whole surface of the body ... specialised to form the covering or lining of all internal and external body surfaces." And I'm sure that even an MD (hardly the arbiters of all things physiologic) is aware of that. You see, both doctors of chiropractic and medicine study from the same anatomy and physiology text books. Live and learn.
@johndomenech1 Skin is simply the commonly used term for the covering of the body that we see, and since it is on the outside, those particular EPITHELIAL CELLS have adapted to the outside world, while the same cell type found lining the body's inner SKIN are adapted, too. Since I wasn't teaching one of my physiology students, I used common English to convey my meaning. Jargon is for bone heads who get lost in their subject to the point that they really don't understand it anymore
@BackCarePlus So the use of proper jargon is for boneheads? That's interesting. By the way the common term for the "skin" of the stomach is "lining" if you want to get technical about it. Also, if you read my comment I stated, "I'm assuming you meant epithelial tissue not skin." Just because you used an improper phrase and I called you out on it is no reason for you to get all defensive. Besides the likely cause of the blisters is an allergic reactions to something she touched not ate.
@johndomenech1 Blisters that erupt from something we touch is called contact dermatitis and usually is confined to the area of contact, commonly arms, legs and face. Blisters that show up on the abdomen and torso are less likely contact origin and more likely to reflect disruptions of the autonomic system as relates to dermatomes with their associated sclerotomes. The related muscle will usually display inhibition not associated with other muscular factors. Jargon is for insiders.
Great video. But there are still a couple of foreign words that I don't understand (I'm german) :D Also interesting is that Dr. Gunter seems to work more conscious with his patients than most other chiropractors on YT. In my opinion, he does more than "just a crack", but I could be wrong ;)
@ozma68 It is just a small length of webbing material filled with sand to create a support for my hand, when using it as a fulcrum under someone's back. Thanks for watching. And I hope you have seen the other videos, as well.
salve, il femore sx è più lungo. Ha una dismetria degli arti inferiori; perciò basta mettere una soletta da un dollaro sotto il piede dx e finalmente compensare...ciao dottore americano
@domenico1973coletta I'm tempted to believe that this is an interesting question, but sadly I do not speak Italian. I'd be happy to attempt an answer if I only knew the question.
The "top comment" refers to skin reactions of the type called "contact dermatitis", or perhaps a skin reaction to inhaled pollens. In either case, the manifestation of skin rashes of a blistery type are typical of histamine reaction. I believe the reference I made to the liver, is because histamines are proteins that cause inflammation, and these are cleared in the liver. My response to histamine problems is to support clearance, rather than force inhibition as in antihistamines. More holistic.
@leavinginthepast Thank you for the compliment. That has truly been my goal, for more than 30 years, and I have worked hard to acquire the needed skill set to be honored so. All the best of health to you.
@Metals999 Aw, don't be such a hater. And besides, Ms. Kintner is not only an Olympic medalist in BMX (bicycle moto-cross), she is also a World Champion mountain bike racer. If you aren't competing at that level, it may be virtually impossible for you to understand the amount of work, dedication, and sacrifice it takes to make it on the field, let alone come home with a medal. As for the "2nd loser" label you apply, I only know one other person stupid enough to say such a thing. Utter nonsense.
i am a physio and we dont use this device so i didn know it.. before two years i wanted to study the chiropractic science in john palmer's university in miami but it was so expensive... i think that its a big tool in the hands of the therapist!!
@johnhagis No, you are probably referring to the hand-held instrument called an Activator, which is a mechanical device for moving bones rapidly through small excursions. You see me use it also in a video called Chiropractic Adjustment, and if you go there to the early comments I post an in depth response and explanation (on more than one post) about the device and its use. It is one of the most commonly asked questions on the video, so look past the short answers for the full story. Thanks.
@johnhagis I don't think of laser for trigger points (which are sometimes coincident with, but not identical to, acupuncture points), but it may be used for acu-meridian therapy, neuromuscular therapy, and the treatment of trauma to tissues, among other things.
great vid doc the only thing is , about the skin thing i think the blister type spots are more to do with an allergic reaction to do with a substance she has come into contact with or a pollen effect due to the fact shes outdoors cycling in all sorts of places which could be populated by the many types of flora and fauna you guys have over there . i think because are hands are part of are bodies that are always exposed this puts them at more risk of being exposed to allergens in are enviroment
At about 2:50 when you adjust her back you have a blue-ish/purple thing in your hand, is it something to aid you in the adjustment or was it something you happened to have in your hand that you didn't let go, like a pen?
@tracyrawks Very observant, and good question. The device is simply a short length of webbing strap, like you find at a back pack store, and it is filled with sand, so that it supports my fingers when my hand is being used as a fulcrum under the weight of someone's back. Some of the bicycle racers and other athletes (even some non-athletes) I treat are larger than me and very muscular. I sprained some knuckles once when treating someone like that, and now try to protect my hands this way.
Doc G, it's one thing to help and inform but there's no reason for you to waste your time on arguments with people who have already made up their mind. Your million plus views on this site and successful career more than substantiate the good you're doing for people. Chiropractic is alive and well and most of us sincerely appreciate your work and interaction with us. Keep it up and we hope for more great videos in the future.
@boosie007666 Oh, for those who don't already know, you don't have skin inside of your gut. It's a completely different type of membrane to skin, adapted for completely different things.
@boosie007666 Actually, since you seem interested in being knowledgeable, the body is lined both inside and out with epithelial tissue, the only difference being that the outside has a special protein (keratin) which reduces the absorption characteristics of "skin", while we obviously wouldn't want that condition on the inside surface. And the link between liver and "colded" (congested) is histamines, and the pectoralis muscle as indicator of liver function is based on embryologic formation.
@BackCarePlus Only just noticed this. You didn't say that epithelial tissue lined both the outside and the inside. You said skin does. Skin is the epidermis, which you should know isn't inside the body. Tut tut.
As for the reason you made this claim, I would have said that the patient probably had eczema but I can't tell without further details from her. Saying it's because she ate something that didn't agree with her 'stomach skin' was just you pretending you knew.
@boosie007666 Wrong on all counts, my friend. With your degree you should know at least two things. First, is that "skin" is a colloquial term for the outer version of the combined tissues identified in my previous post. Second, is that you are qualified to enter the program from which I graduated, rather than to pose as a competent evaluator of my treatment methodology. And I'm not aware of anything defensive in my post at all. In fact, I gave you the benefit of assuming comprehension. I erred.
@BackCarePlus 1st: Skin is a colloquial term for the outer layer of the body. It isn't used to describe the epithelial tissue inside the body.
2: Why would I need to graduate from your program (no doubt filled with pseudoscience) when I've already graduated from my own, fully recognised qualification?
The defensiveness was in the mere fact you felt the need to submit another comment, 20 hours after the last, to try to say I have no qualifications, which you're still doing.
@boosie007666 Since I was speaking to a lay person, and not before an audience of professionals, I chose to speak in familiar language. Since epithelial tissue is the lining, both inside and out, and since we call the part we can see skin, I'm not in agreement that this was incorrect. As for your qualifications, I'm not at all sure what exactly your degree qualifies you to do. Aside from what you are doing here on YouTube.
@BackCarePlus True, I suppose you do have to tone down your speech to cater for the listener.
Yes, the epithelium covers the inside and the outside. The skin, however, is not just the epithelium. That would be like you saying 'we call the nervous system and the epidermis skin because they both came from the ectoderm'. Skin does not encompass the entire epithelium, just the cutis.
@BackCarePlus As for what my degree qualifies me to do, it isn't really the point in this since I'm not working. What is the point is that my degree has given me more than enough knowledge to counter your farcical statements, something which you brought up saying I had no training to do so. There is your training. Suck it up.
@boosie007666 I would conclude that you haven't countered anything, simply contradicted. And without offering any foundation, I might add. And, while I have continued to offer you the courtesy of respect that I'm not entirely sure you deserve, I note that your posts continue to use personally derogatory statements. Hmm, maybe that's why you're not working. And your analogy shows a lack of understanding about the terms you are using. But that's OK, since we're only here on the net, right?
@BackCarePlus Have a quick look what countering something is. You'll notice that contradication tends to sit with it.
Courtesy and respect? Your first two posts were implying I was uneducated and unqualified to dare to call you out. I'm only returning in kind.
When I said I'm not working, I meant I'm not working at this precise moment, not that I don't have a job. It's 01:46 here, even real scientists need sleep.
The analogy was to show that a ball may be red but not all balls are red.
@boosie007666 You're just like the cute puppies in the video on your channel page; full of enthusiasm and not at all aware of what you're dealing with. But I'm done here, so I'll just take the lead from your tabby cat friend, and jump up where you can't go. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us.
@BackCarePlus I find the cute puppies extremely relaxing. Very difficult to sleep lately.
What I find cuter is your mistaken assumption that you're some sort of intellectually superior person that I have no comprehension of. It's funny, honestly it is. Especially after saying that moving your arm will fix your liver and help a persons colded. A sentence like that, I'm surprised she didn't see you as the con man you are. Maybe try being a comedian once your job as a fake doctor falls through.
@boosie007666 Persistent, aren't you? If you were half the scientist that you represent yourself to be, then you would be inquiring about that which you don't understand, rather than making careless observations and even more careless statements. I never said that moving ones arm would fix anyone's liver. In fact I wonder if you know what the liver is, does, and how it does it. If so, then you could surmise some effect on the liver from "stretching" the arm, although I made no reference to it.
@BackCarePlus Or maybe I'm the full scientist I represent myself to be, that I can see straight through the pseudoscience healthcare that you sell to everyone of your patients.
What you said was, in response to the patient asking if moving her arm against your hold was related to neck or back, 'that was the neck and also has to do with liver stuff which might explain why you're feeling colded'.
As for what the liver does, I'd probably kill people in my profession if I didn't.
@BackCarePlus nah mate, bullshit. So can you explain why breathing in the nose at 3:53 is better than through the mouth and why it's relevant to her spinal care? And give an account of why the outer epidermis (skin) is the same as the lining of the gut, and refer me to one scientific publication backing up your claim that they are exclusively linked in such a way. Are you saying ingesting some things only affects your skin? Fairly sure drinking bleach will kill all of you, not give you a rash.
@andymc24 While your questions are a bit hard to get a track on, I can tell by the way you begin your post that it is unlikely to matter to you what I say. So, my suggestion is that you continue to hold on to your self-limiting assumptions, and I will continue solving the problems that people bring to me. Seems like a reasonable compromise to me.
@BackCarePlus but i don't get it. If you truly beleive in your work, you;d have proof, or research, that the lining of your gut is the same as the skin
@BackCarePlus also that's no response to a question whether or not someone has alreayd made their mind up. You have the absolute quacks who claim they can claim cancer with happy thoughts - if i were to confront them and say that what they say is bullshit - would it be right for them to say i don't need to give you the proof becuase you've already made your mind up? of course its not alright as they're ripping people off and more importantly, geuinely putting people's lives at risk.
@sgddfgfghfgh You are entitled to your opinion, but your statements indicate a lack of understanding about research, the nature of knowledge, and physiology. Unless you are approaching me for the purpose of being educated, rather than as it appears that you are simply wanting to declare "b.s." about something of which you know little and understand less, then I don't really think there can be any dialogue. This video is not selling or promoting any view point, simply demonstrating what is done.
@boosie007666 Since you obviously are not a doctor of any kind, nor do you apparently have any training in Anatomy of Physiology, I wonder what special characteristics you do possess that would allow you to speak with such presumed authority regarding a subject that you appear to know nothing about? Or is that just the nature of internet observation nowadays? Everyone is an instant expert because they can hit the Google button? And, if you watch closely, you'll see that I don't stretch anything.
@BackCarePlus A BSc in Healthcare Science allows me to do so.
Yeah, you raised someone's arm and asked them to fight against it. Huzzah! Your liver will thank me. I'm all for chiropractic adjustments, just as I'm all for massages. Where I stop feeling relaxed about it is when someone mentions some fake science (e.g. chakra, reflexology and moving your arm here will help your 'liver stuff' and stop you feeling colded).
Sudden defensiveness over being called out? Nice to see.
There should really be more than just 2 videos of this guy at work. Watching is informative and EXTREMELY relaxing. On Youtube there are a couple people quite famous for relaxing us such as Lita, Baba, etc…We should soon add this guy to this list.
@vleon1012 Tissues are injured under two specific conditions: Healthy tissues are exposed to excess loads that result in damage by exceeding normal capacity; unhealthy tissues are exposed to normal loads that should not cause them to fail, but their compromised status results in injury. In my opinion, most (each case needs adequate evaluation) instances of "overuse" do not qualify as excess loads, and only affect compromised tissues. That is why I specified investigation of other factors.
@costercupcoffee I crack my knuckles? Hmm. Well, sometimes, perhaps, but that is irrelevant to the shape of my knuckles. I'm a martial artist and have spent a bit of time making contact with hard objects and my hands. I'm not sure what the pen holding thing is, unless you mean that my hand shows some residual flexion. Doctors do write a lot, but I refer to my earlier comment. If you are interested in assessing body shape and function, be sure to extend your view to additional anatomical parts.
@knmleaguecity Laser is a means of increasing cellular production of ATP, which is a fuel, or energy, molecule for cellular function. In this case, it is used to improve muscular activity and responsiveness. Like tuning your car engine, metaphorically speaking.
@BackCarePlus Its a misconception that laser is powerful enough to penetrate clothes and still be an effective treatment. check this test out for proof. White clothes = 80% drop of effectiveness, most pigmented clothes 90-99% reduced effectiveness. Great on bare skin though! Keep up the good work!
@coreyhudson2 Thanks for the reference. I'm not in agreement with your statement, however, on two counts. First, studies are able to support or refute a hypothesis, but are not capable of "proving" anything. Second, an 80% drop in measurable light transmission is not the same as an 80% drop in effectiveness. There is an ongoing debate as to how much power a laser needs to be effective, and while more power is more penetrating, that has not been shown to be more effective. Keep watching.

This guy is a pro. Next time I fly out to LA I am going to make the drive just to go to his office. Does he give everybody personalized treatments like this?
@BackCarePlus Doesn't the laser only work when applied to bare skin. Since the laser works at 650nm it cannot penetrate cloth effectively and denim even more so.
@Programmerx Laser is a form of energy that animates specific activity at the cellular level, and allowing the cell to more efficiently do whatever it is that needs to be done; including healing and repair, reduction of inflammation, restoration of muscle activity, and less pain. Biochemically we see increased production of ATP, which is the energy molecule for the cell. More energy = more activity. Thanks for asking.

Physiotherapists actually know their stuff and don't take people money just for releasing gas by pushing on certain places and then have people leave thinking they're 'cured' of their pain even though it is only a very temporary release.

@121JAB121 You seem to enjoy rendering your opinion, on this and other videos, but I can knowledgeably say that you are incorrect and uninformed. In my practice, my patients actually report lasting relief and, in most cases, long-term correction of their underlying problem. BTW, what I do is definitely NOT the "medical profession". I think it is a shame that misinformed people believe that "medicine" equals "health", or even "physiology". But I may be going deeper here than you can.

@ShadowWinger99 More appropriate to call it Functional Neurology. Applied Kinesiology (AK) has become a very misunderstood name for the application of proper muscle testing procedures which can be used in the clinical evaluation of a wide range of physiologic functions. I am certified in AK, but don't believe I learned that particular facet of evaluation from my formal AK training, and I'm not sure if other AK docs use it. It helps distinguish the presence of occipital fixation.

Maybe that is just the new reality of the internet culture, which seems to favor flaming and ad hominem attacks over civil discourse and the exchange of info in a respectful manner. And maybe you aren't really interested in learning anything new, just pretending that you know something. I don't know. Why don't you try asking?
BackCarePlus 2 months ago
@BackCarePlus I'm assuming you meant epithelial tissue not skin, because the type of epithelial tissue that makes up the skin is not the same that makes up the lining of the stomach or intestines. Both maybe epithelial tissue as they are a covering type of cell but they have separate properties including what can irritate them. Why don't you use the dang ole Internet and look it up or you can ask an M.D.
johndomenech1 2 months ago
@johndomenech1 Well, I guess you didn't bother to look it up on the internet yourself, or you would have seen that "Epithelial tissue covers the whole surface of the body ... specialised to form the covering or lining of all internal and external body surfaces." And I'm sure that even an MD (hardly the arbiters of all things physiologic) is aware of that. You see, both doctors of chiropractic and medicine study from the same anatomy and physiology text books. Live and learn.
BackCarePlus 2 months ago
@johndomenech1 Skin is simply the commonly used term for the covering of the body that we see, and since it is on the outside, those particular EPITHELIAL CELLS have adapted to the outside world, while the same cell type found lining the body's inner SKIN are adapted, too. Since I wasn't teaching one of my physiology students, I used common English to convey my meaning. Jargon is for bone heads who get lost in their subject to the point that they really don't understand it anymore
BackCarePlus 2 months ago
@BackCarePlus So the use of proper jargon is for boneheads? That's interesting. By the way the common term for the "skin" of the stomach is "lining" if you want to get technical about it. Also, if you read my comment I stated, "I'm assuming you meant epithelial tissue not skin." Just because you used an improper phrase and I called you out on it is no reason for you to get all defensive. Besides the likely cause of the blisters is an allergic reactions to something she touched not ate.
johndomenech1 2 months ago
@johndomenech1 Blisters that erupt from something we touch is called contact dermatitis and usually is confined to the area of contact, commonly arms, legs and face. Blisters that show up on the abdomen and torso are less likely contact origin and more likely to reflect disruptions of the autonomic system as relates to dermatomes with their associated sclerotomes. The related muscle will usually display inhibition not associated with other muscular factors. Jargon is for insiders.

BackCarePlus 5 months ago
The "top comment" refers to skin reactions of the type called "contact dermatitis", or perhaps a skin reaction to inhaled pollens. In either case, the manifestation of skin rashes of a blistery type are typical of histamine reaction. I believe the reference I made to the liver, is because histamines are proteins that cause inflammation, and these are cleared in the liver. My response to histamine problems is to support clearance, rather than force inhibition as in antihistamines. More holistic.

@tracyrawks Very observant, and good question. The device is simply a short length of webbing strap, like you find at a back pack store, and it is filled with sand, so that it supports my fingers when my hand is being used as a fulcrum under the weight of someone's back. Some of the bicycle racers and other athletes (even some non-athletes) I treat are larger than me and very muscular.

@boosie007666 Oh, for those who don't already know, you don't have skin inside of your gut. It's a completely different type of membrane to skin, adapted for completely different things.
boosie007666 8 months ago
@boosie007666 Actually, since you seem interested in being knowledgeable, the body is lined both inside and out with epithelial tissue, the only difference being that the outside has a special protein (keratin) which reduces the absorption characteristics of "skin", while we obviously wouldn't want that condition on the inside surface. And the link between liver and "colded" (congested) is histamines, and the pectoralis muscle as indicator of liver function is based on embryologic formation.
BackCarePlus 8 months ago
@BackCarePlus Only just noticed this. You didn't say that epithelial tissue lined both the outside and the inside. You said skin does. Skin is the epidermis, which you should know isn't inside the body. Tut tut.
As for the reason you made this claim, I would have said that the patient probably had eczema but I can't tell without further details from her. Saying it's because she ate something that didn't agree with her 'stomach skin' was just you pretending you knew.
boosie007666 8 months ago
@boosie007666 Wrong on all counts, my friend. With your degree you should know at least two things. First, is that "skin" is a colloquial term for the outer version of the combined tissues identified in my previous post. Second, is that you are qualified to enter the program from which I graduated, rather than to pose as a competent evaluator of my treatment methodology. And I'm not aware of anything defensive in my post at all. In fact, I gave you the benefit of assuming comprehension. I erred.
BackCarePlus 8 months ago
@BackCarePlus 1st: Skin is a colloquial term for the outer layer of the body. It isn't used to describe the epithelial tissue inside the body.
2: Why would I need to graduate from your program (no doubt filled with pseudoscience) when I've already graduated from my own, fully recognised qualification?
The defensiveness was in the mere fact you felt the need to submit another comment, 20 hours after the last, to try to say I have no qualifications, which you're still doing.
boosie007666 8 months ago
@boosie007666 Since I was speaking to a lay person, and not before an audience of professionals, I chose to speak in familiar language. Since epithelial tissue is the lining, both inside and out, and since we call the part we can see skin, I'm not in agreement that this was incorrect. As for your qualifications, I'm not at all sure what exactly your degree qualifies you to do. Aside from what you are doing here on YouTube.
BackCarePlus 8 months ago
@BackCarePlus True, I suppose you do have to tone down your speech to cater for the listener.
Yes, the epithelium covers the inside and the outside. The skin, however, is not just the epithelium. That would be like you saying 'we call the nervous system and the epidermis skin because they both came from the ectoderm'. Skin does not encompass the entire epithelium, just the cutis.
boosie007666 8 months ago
@BackCarePlus As for what my degree qualifies me to do, it isn't really the point in this since I'm not working. What is the point is that my degree has given me more than enough knowledge to counter your farcical statements, something which you brought up saying I had no training to do so. There is your training. Suck it up.
boosie007666 8 months ago
@boosie007666 I would conclude that you haven't countered anything, simply contradicted. And without offering any foundation, I might add. And, while I have continued to offer you the courtesy of respect that I'm not entirely sure you deserve, I note that your posts continue to use personally derogatory statements. Hmm, maybe that's why you're not working. And your analogy shows a lack of understanding about the terms you are using. But that's OK, since we're only here on the net, right?
BackCarePlus 8 months ago
@BackCarePlus Have a quick look what countering something is. You'll notice that contradication tends to sit with it.
Courtesy and respect? Your first two posts were implying I was uneducated and unqualified to dare to call you out. I'm only returning in kind.
When I said I'm not working, I meant I'm not working at this precise moment, not that I don't have a job. It's 01:46 here, even real scientists need sleep.
The analogy was to show that a ball may be red but not all balls are red.

@BackCarePlus I find the cute puppies extremely relaxing. Very difficult to sleep lately.
What I find cuter is your mistaken assumption that you're some sort of intellectually superior person that I have no comprehension of. It's funny, honestly it is. Especially after saying that moving your arm will fix your liver and help a persons colded. A sentence like that, I'm surprised she didn't see you as the con man you are. Maybe try being a comedian once your job as a fake doctor falls through.
boosie007666 8 months ago 3
@boosie007666 Persistent, aren't you? If you were half the scientist that you represent yourself to be, then you would be inquiring about that which you don't understand, rather than making careless observations and even more careless statements. I never said that moving ones arm would fix anyone's liver. In fact I wonder if you know what the liver is, does, and how it does it. If so, then you could surmise some effect on the liver from "stretching" the arm, although I made no reference to it.
BackCarePlus 8 months ago 3
@BackCarePlus Or maybe I'm the full scientist I represent myself to be, that I can see straight through the pseudoscience healthcare that you sell to everyone of your patients.
What you said was, in response to the patient asking if moving her arm against your hold was related to neck or back, 'that was the neck and also has to do with liver stuff which might explain why you're feeling colded'.
As for what the liver does, I'd probably kill people in my profession if I didn't.
boosie007666 8 months ago
@BackCarePlus nah mate, bullshit. So can you explain why breathing in the nose at 3:53 is better than through the mouth and why it's relevant to her spinal care? And give an account of why the outer epidermis (skin) is the same as the lining of the gut, and refer me to one scientific publication backing up your claim that they are exclusively linked in such a way. Are you saying ingesting some things only affects your skin? Fairly sure drinking bleach will kill all of you, not give you a rash.

In my opinion, most (each case needs adequate evaluation) instances of "overuse" do not qualify as excess loads, and only affect compromised tissues. That is why I specified investigation of other factors.

What is the Lazer supose to do?
Programmerx 9 months ago
@Programmerx Laser is a form of energy that animates specific activity at the cellular level, and allowing the cell to more efficiently do whatever it is that needs to be done; including healing and repair, reduction of inflammation, restoration of muscle activity, and less pain. Biochemically we see increased production of ATP, which is the energy molecule for the cell. More energy = more activity. Thanks for asking.
