 Hey guys, what's up? It's Dr. Cashin exploring chiropractic with an unboxing video or an unenveloping video. I need my letter opener. Grab it. Should not be running up and down the stairs with this. Today, crisp volume 2 for your new student. You want something to help really crystallize everything that you've learned in school. Highly recommend it. I hope you guys have heard of this. Dr. Don Murphy is a chiropractor researcher out in Rhode Island. He has done some great research. He is one of the proponents of the primary spine practitioner idea. This is where chiropractors would be the go-to doctors for anybody with any type of pain related to the spine. Came out with his brand new book, which is a second in volume. If you guys haven't seen it yet. Boom. Crisp is clinical reasoning in spine pain. And this is volume 1. And I'm excited. Just this week was released volume 2. Let's get into it. Ooh. Here it is. Nice red color. Kind of reminds me of Yocaman Roe. But take a look at this. Volume 2, obviously volume 2 is on cervical disorders. It's a little bit thicker. Quite a bit thicker actually. Disclosure. I have not read volume 2. In fact, I'm not done with volume 1. I am like more than halfway through. But I've not read it. So this is not a book review. But I'm really excited for volume 2. Getting into cervical disorders. This one also as you can see in the subtitle, includes case studies. So this is going to be really nice. Let's take a look here what we find. Table of contents. Three questions. It makes it really simple. Do the presenting symptoms reflect a visceral disorder or serious or potentially life threatening illness? That's the red flags, right? Number 1, red flags. Number 2, where is the pain coming from? You gotta find the pain generator. And then number 3, what is happening with this patient as a whole that would cause the pain experience to develop? That's the biopsychosocial. This is where you differentiate between acute pain and chronic pain. And in chronic pain almost always there's a psychosocial aspect to it. Outcome assessments. And then management. So treatment approaches based on Diagnostic Question 2 or 3. Oh good, he mentions thoracic. So that's why it's a little bit thicker here. Cervical and a chapter on thoracic disorders. And case studies in primary spine care. This is what's going to be exciting. I'm going to check this out. 273, chapter 9. A little case studies in primary spine care. This is going to be cool because I know about you guys what I didn't get out of school was putting all of this stuff together, right? We've got adjusting class over here. Neuromuscular skeletal over here. We've got physical diagnosis. What is it from end to end? From the patient first walking in to discovering, figuring out what's wrong. How good we can be at that? How clear can those diagnoses be? When they're not clear, what do you do? And this kind of answers a lot of that. So I'm looking forward to reading these case studies. Blanks here where we can fill in the answers to Diagnostic Questions 1, 2, and 3 as we read through the case study. So there's a thread on Facebook this week. Student was asking, hey, I'm graduating soon. What books should I get? What do you recommend? This came up. Chris. And to be honest, I would replace most of the curriculum with these textbooks. Chris, you've got to have the details that we get in school. You really do. I'm not saying you could get rid of chiropractic school. Introduction to spine care. All in here. Boom. One, two. If you're a new student, you want something to help really crystallize everything that you've learned in school. Or if you're a practicing doctor that's been out for quite a while and you just want to refocus and reevaluate how you're approaching patient care, I highly recommend it. Get them on Amazon. I've got links here. Both are around 60 bucks. It's helpful to you as well.
