Lower Back Pain Treatment : Addressing Gaps in Non-Specific Diagnosis Care
Back Pain Affects Millions and Costs Billions "Low back pain is the second most common cause of disability in US adults and a common reason for lost work days. An estimated 149 million days of work per year are lost due to LBP. The condition is also costly with total costs estimated to be between 100–200 billion dollars annually, two-thirds of which are due to decreased wages and productivity." Non-specific back pain is defined as low back pain not attributable to a recogniza


Commitment to Transparency
As you have seen from my initial articles, I choose to be entirely transparent with the information behind my theory, my patent application for the invention of my adaptive therapy system, and the mechanisms by which this therapy engages our bodies' naturally occurring ability to develop strength and mitigate pain. I have seen an alarming trend in the field of bodywork (as well as many other industries) toward a lack of transparency by therapists who assume and exploit the ig


Integrated Biomechanic Technique Explanation : Proof of Invention
PROBLEM ANALYSIS This section describes the cause and impact of the problem addressed by the invention described in the subsequent section. PROBLEM CAUSALITY CHAIN Deeply innervated within the tissues, where pain is present, are nociceptive C-fibers. These fibers, which are sensitive to mechanical noxious stimulus, are subjected to high tensile loads within a less that optimal postural position. This mechanical noxious stimulus causes stretching and depolarization of the unmy

Integrated Biomechanic Theory
PROBLEM OVERVIEW Integrated Biomechanic Theory postulates that chronic, nonspecific pain experienced in the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral spine, pelvis, glenohumeral joint, and the tibio/fibular joint areas is brought about by long term mechanical noxious stimuli to the mechanical C-fiber nociceptors at the location of diffuse pain as an effect from long term sedative lifestyle or repetitive stress injury due to occupation or recreation. PROBLEM SCOPE REFINEMENT The spec


Introduction to Integrated Biomechanic Therapy
This article provides an in-depth description of the adaptive expert system known as Integrated Biomechanic Therapy (IBT), as described in the filing with the US Patent Office, establishing IBT as a unique and useful system for integrating the practice of Massage Therapy with Corrective Exercise and Instructed Self-Care, in order to relieve pain in clients. Invention Overview Integrated Biomechanic Therapy (IBT) relates to the field of bodywork that contains: A series of 6 or
