Dr. Carol shares a case of Meige (MEIGE) syndrome involving severe facial muscle spasticity and involuntary eye closure triggered by speaking, plus light sensitivity, absent gag reflex (partially restored after chiropractic care), elevated shoulders, and a history of extreme stress and childhood abuse. After identifying likely involvement of cranial nerve VII and structures associated with the pons, vagus, basal ganglia, cerebellum, and medulla, they describe an evolving FSM strategy: running protocols such as concussion and vagus/vagal tone, pons repair, increasing secretions in the pons, and "quieting" the basal ganglia and cerebellum (including noting 40/988 for quieting basal ganglia). They discuss searching neurotransmitters of the pons (acetylcholine, GABA, serotonin, norepinephrine), emphasizing inhibitory support via GABA and serotonin, supplementing with chewable GABA and later ordering 5-HTP, and the concept that using "increase secretions" can require providing precursors/substrate to avoid depletion. They also add emotional frequencies for fear/terror and note functional changes across two days, including relaxed facial muscles and improved blinking and speech-related eye control, then send the patient home with a five-hour nighttime program and a loaner device, with follow-up planned. The conversation also covers patient education, expectations and management with CustomCare devices, tracking outcomes with metrics like range of motion and confidence.

Patients are encouraged to choose practitioners who make them feel comfortable, listen attentively, and explain procedures thoroughly. Additionally, it is vital for practitioners to act as patient educators and advocates, ensuring that patients are aware of their options and understand what to expect from surgical and post-operative care. Importance of Surgical Notes Accessing detailed surgical notes is essential for creating a customized and effective post-operative care plan. Surgical notes provide insights into the procedural steps taken during surgery, highlighting areas that may require focused rehabilitation or specific therapeutic interventions.  Customized Post-Operative Care  - Utilizing FSM to address specific post-operative complications such as inflammation and adhesions. - Developing tailored protocols that may involve restoring joint function, reducing pain, and improving muscle or tissue healing. - Implementing FSM for emotional support, addressing emotional stress or trauma that can accompany physical injuries and surgeries. Managing Emotional Aspects in Healing  FSM is also used to manage emotional components intertwined with physical healing. Addressing emotions such as anger, fear, and grief using specific frequencies is integral to comprehensive care. Understanding the psychology behind these emotions and treating them in a methodical sequence can significantly improve patient responses and recovery. Proprioception and Vestibular Considerations  In patients who have undergone significant anatomical changes post-surgery, proprioceptive recalibration is crucial. Changes in gait or balance may necessitate proprioceptive exercises and FSM treatment for vestibular injuries to restore equilibrium and prevent dizziness or disorientation.

Hosts: Carolyn McMakin, MA, DC       &       Kim Pittis, LCSP, (PHYS), MT 01:37 Patient Case Study: Phantom Limb Pain 09:13 Understanding Liver Health and Detoxification 17:48 Addressing Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease 29:51 Treating TMJ with FSM 34:17 Understanding Trigger Points and TMJ 37:01 Exploring Eczema and Its Causes 40:27 Post-ACL Reconstruction and Rehabilitation 49:19 Addressing Dementia and Its Potential Causes 55:28 Innovations in Surgical Solutions for Arthritis 57:11 Conclusion and Final Thoughts In the realm of medical practice, understanding various pain management and treatment techniques is essential, especially for medical professionals dealing with complex conditions. This guide delves into methods for treating various kinds of pain, nerve issues, and conditions such as liver toxicity, TMJ, and osteoporosis, as well as discussing new insights into dementia related to sensory loss. **Managing Phantom Limb Pain** Phantom limb pain can occur when nerves are damaged, leading to sensations in a limb that is no longer present. A case in point is the experience of nerve damage in the big toe, where the perceived pain resembles that of a phantom limb. Identifying and running specific treatment protocols such as 40/89 can be effective in alleviating such pain. **Understanding Trigger Points** Trigger points in muscles like the upper trapezius are often symptoms rather than causes of pain. They might originate from other underlying issues such as rotator cuff injuries. Treatment should focus on repairing associated injuries and reducing muscle tension through methods like running specific protocols tailored to nerve and muscle conditions. **Liver Health and Detoxification** The liver plays a crucial role in detoxifying the body, and certain conditions like cirrhosis require targeted treatment. Managing liver health may involve treating for toxicity, anesthesia, and providing support through supplements like lipoic acid and milk thistle. Protocols for conditions like non-alcoholic fatty liver focus on dietary management, particularly the reduction of carbohydrate intake. **Restoring Muscle and Joint Function** In treating joint issues such as TMJ, understanding the biomechanical contributions is vital. A detailed approach involves treating torn or broken ligaments and connective tissues. For post-surgical recovery, such as ACL reconstruction, encouraging the appropriate exercises without further straining repaired tendons is key. Coordinated movement must be restored cautiously to ensure proper healing. **Dealing with Eczema and Immune System Responses** Eczema can often be linked to immune responses and is treated by addressing histamine levels and inflammation. It's often associated with other conditions such as MCAS, and a multi-pronged treatment approach that targets the immune system, skin, and gut health is often beneficial. **Dementia and Sensory Loss** The loss of olfactory senses (smell) can be a predictor of dementia. Understanding the relationship between sensory loss and cognitive decline is critical in early intervention. Questions regarding vaccination effects, particularly related to COVID-19, should be explored as they might impact the onset or progression of symptoms. Pain management and treatment are multifaceted, requiring a comprehensive understanding of the physiological and neurological factors involved. By addressing underlying causes of symptoms like phantom limb pain, improving liver function, and adopting holistic approaches to conditions like eczema and dementia, medical professionals can enhance treatment outcomes. Understanding these dynamics can empower healthcare providers to offer more effective interventions for various complex conditions.

The exploration of these topics provides valuable learning, particularly for medical students aiming to expand their breadth of knowledge. **Calcium, Mitochondria, and Pain** In managing complex pain syndromes, understanding the cellular pathways involved is crucial. Calcium ions play a pivotal role in cellular activities, signaling mitochondria to produce ATP. However, an excess of calcium can be detrimental, leading to cellular death. This is an important consideration in conditions like post-exercise malaise, often misunderstood to be related to calcium levels in mitochondria. Understanding these cellular mechanisms helps in formulating treatment paradigms that do not exacerbate conditions. **The Role of FSM in Pain Management** FSM offers a transformative approach in managing conditions that resist conventional treatments. It operates using specific frequencies to target different tissues and pathological processes without physical contact, thus ruling out placebo effects. As practitioners explore this modality, they must develop proficiency in hypothesizing and testing different frequencies to determine their effectiveness in individual cases. **Case Exploration: Treating CRPS** For instance, a patient with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) underwent extensive treatments involving FSM. The patient's history included multiple surgeries and persistent pain that conventional therapies failed to address. By determining that the pain couldn't be traced to common neurological pathways, FSM was employed to address underlying issues such as increased muscle tone and central nervous system involvement. The outcome was a significant reduction in pain, demonstrating the potential of FSM in chronic pain management. Such cases highlight the importance of critical thinking in diagnosing and treating based on individual symptoms rather than predetermined labels. **Hydrocephalus, Balance, and Developmental Concerns** Hydrocephalus presents unique treatment challenges, especially in pediatric cases where development is ongoing. Post-surgical outcomes such as balance issues and developmental delays require attentive management. FSM offers potential adjunctive support by addressing central nervous system function, aiming to enhance developmental milestones and motor skills. However, medical professionals must carefully assess each case to tailor treatments that best support individual needs. **Integration and Critical Thinking in Treatment** The podcast emphasizes the necessity of integrating clinical experiences with theoretical knowledge. Practitioners must engage in continuous learning and maintain an openness to reevaluating treatment strategies based on new evidence. Collaborative exploration among medical professionals fosters deeper understanding and innovation in treatment methodologies.

They may not develop overnight and often come with complex precursors. Examining the role of Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) as an adjunctive treatment reveals insightful perspectives for managing these sensitivities effectively. This article highlights key discussions from experts on this topic. **The Genesis of Food Sensitivities** It's essential to recognize that food sensitivities originate from several factors, including genetics and environmental influences. Dr. Carol explains that the immune system, primarily located around the digestive tract, reacts to foreign proteins after they pass through a possibly compromised gut wall, leading to what's referred to as "leaky gut." Stress, medication, and diet intricacies all play crucial roles in how these sensitivities manifest. *Food Sensitivity Testing: A Billion-Dollar Industry** Kim Pittis emphasizes the burgeoning business of food sensitivity panels. Despite their prevalence, the accuracy of these tests has raised skepticism. Instances where identical blood samples sent under different identities yield varied results underscore the need for caution. This discrepancy further emphasizes the importance of alternative approaches, such as elimination diets and dietary adjustments. **Introducing FSM as an Adjunct Treatment** Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) emerges as a promising supportive tool for those navigating the complexities of food sensitivities. FSM addresses underlying issues that exacerbate food sensitivities, such as leaky gut and vagus nerve dysfunction. It works in tandem with elimination diets to enhance recovery and comfort for patients experiencing these health challenges. **Unraveling the Body's Complex Reactions** As detailed by Dr. Carol, food sensitivities often result in IgG antibody formation, leading to histamine release and systemic responses like body pain and inflammation. These reactions can persist and significantly affect quality of life. Understanding the body's complex immune response to continuous exposure to specific foods and the subsequent formation of food sensitivities is crucial. **Practical Applications: Case Examples** The narrative includes practical applications and real-life examples illustrating how FSM can effectively complement traditional treatments. By repairing compromised gut linings and modulating immune responses, FSM aids in reducing the duration and intensity of food sensitivity reactions, thus promoting more efficient healing.

Patients may inadvertently cling to their pain, viewing it as a form of control or normalcy within a chaotic family structure. Addressing these dynamics sensitively is crucial to effective treatment. **FSM's Unique Approach to Pain and Scar Tissue** FSM offers an innovative way to address pain that stems from scar tissue and inflamed nerves. Traditional medical systems often lack tools to relieve patients from such chronic pain effectively. FSM tackles this issue by focusing on the fundamental cause: the scar tissue within nerves. By addressing these physical barriers, FSM provides relief where standard treatments may falter. **Case Study: Overcoming Chronic Nerve Pain** Consider the scenario of a patient who has undergone multiple surgeries and suffers from persistent sciatica due to scarred nerves. FSM can improve sensation and reduce pain levels by utilizing specific frequencies targeting the affected nerves and their surrounding structures. Through meticulous manipulation and microcurrent application, practitioners can transform a patient's experience from constant unyielding pain to manageable levels, allowing for a renewed quality of life. **Addressing Comorbid Conditions** Pain rarely appears in isolation. Conditions such as kidney toxicity, allergic skin reactions, or systemic causes like inflammation from menopause may exacerbate a patient's situation. FSM can address these underlying issues by employing targeted frequencies that alleviate symptoms and restore balance to affected organs. **The Necessity for Patience in Treatment** A critical element of successful FSM treatment is patience—for both the practitioner and the patient. Chronic conditions often require multiple sessions to achieve notable improvements. Encouraging patients to trust the process and embrace incremental progress is vital to successful outcomes. **Special Considerations: Allergies and Autoimmunity** When dealing with conditions like allergic skin rashes, it's crucial to address both the symptomology and the immune system's overreaction. By running sequences that mitigate allergic responses and enhance vagus nerve function, FSM can provide relief from chronic allergic manifestations. **The Role of the Practitioner: Creating Customized Solutions** Medical practitioners are encouraged to incorporate FSM by tailoring it to the unique needs of each patient. The versatility of FSM's frequency applications allows clinicians to craft individualized treatment protocols—ranging from sciatica pain management to addressing internal organ complications like kidney stones or interstitial cystitis.

Inwazja Rosji, mobilizacja, ale także ogromna skala emigracji sprawiły, że Ukraina mierzy się z krytycznym niedoborem rąk do pracy. W odpowiedzi na to wyzwanie, Polska, za pośrednictwem Fundacji Solidarności Międzynarodowej (FSM), aktywnie wspiera projekt "Skills4Recovery" (Kompetencje dla Odbudowy). Program, realizowany w międzynarodowym konsorcjum (m.in. z Niemcami, Estonią i Danią), jest współfinansowany m.in. z programu Polska pomoc Ministerstwa Spraw Zagranicznych (4,7 mln zł w 2025 r.).Program wykracza poza pomoc doraźną. Wspiera systemowe przygotowanie Ukrainy do odbudowy i integracji z UE. Szkolenia, bazujące na polskich doświadczeniach przedakcesyjnych, skupiają się na przekwalifikowaniu dorosłych oraz kształceniu zawodowym młodzieży, by zaspokoić deficyt wykwalifikowanych pracowników technicznych, takich jak spawacze, elektrycy, choć nie tylko. Kluczowym elementem jest  wsparcie dla kobiet w "męskich" zawodach oraz pomoc osobom wewnętrznie przemieszczonym, z których aż 45% jest bezrobotnych, podczas gdy 70% firm odczuwa braki kadrowe.

Reframing Patient Challenges:** In the fast-paced world of medicine, reorienting challenges as opportunities for learning can be transformative. Instead of viewing a patient's complex case as a setback, consider asking yourself, "What is this patient here to teach me?" This shift in mindset not only alleviates the pressure of immediate perfection but opens avenues for deeper understanding and innovative solutions. **2. Patient-Centric Goals:** Establishing treatment priorities by listening to patients can enhance outcomes. Instead of focusing solely on clinical markers, engage with patients to understand their personal goals. Asking questions like, "When this issue is resolved, what are the first two things you want to do?" grounds treatment plans in patient-centric outcomes, fostering a partnership in the healing journey. ### Integration of FSM in Practice **1. Addressing Chronic Complications:** FSM offers a nuanced approach to chronic conditions, especially where traditional methods may fall short. For conditions like frozen shoulder or mysterious disc-related issues, FSM's ability to specify frequencies can target different tissue types and pathologies, making it a versatile tool in complex scenarios. **2. Innovating with Frequency Combinations:** The integration of FSM into practice hinges on understanding the interplay of frequencies. For instance, using frequencies to address torn and broken tissues can shift treatment dynamics in chronic disc conditions. Additionally, thinking creatively—such as applying FSM for pubic synthesis or complex shoulder issues—demonstrates FSM's potential in expanding beyond conventional treatment paradigms. **3. The Importance of Treatment Context:** Recognizing when to apply FSM is critical. Positionally responsive symptoms, for example, require a discerning eye. If a patient's pain fluctuates significantly with posture, FSM can pinpoint underlying nerve or fascia issues. Understanding fascia's role, innervation, and constrictive potential is vital for effectively utilizing FSM's benefits. ### A Culture of Learning and Adaptation The landscape of medical practice is ever-evolving, necessitating continuous learning and adaptation. FSM exemplifies this spirit by encouraging practitioners to explore beyond traditional medical confines and invest in understanding the underlying causes rather than just symptoms. This mindset fosters an environment where medical professionals can not only embrace FSM methodology but also apply broader lessons of gratitude, innovation, and patient-centric care to elevate their practice. As the scope of FSM continues to grow, so does its potential to transform both patient experiences and practitioner expertise. By integrating gratitude and leveraging FSM, medical practitioners are well-equipped to navigate the complexities of modern medicine with empathy and precision.

FSM can be especially effective in treating concussive injuries and vestibular disorders that often go unnoticed. This requires practitioners to be vigilant about symptoms related to balance, cognitive function, and anxiety. Conducting a vestibular screen ensures a comprehensive diagnosis and informed treatment plan. ### Practical Applications and Case Studies Clinical applications of FSM extend beyond typical pain management. For example, spatial coordination and movement confidence can significantly impact rehabilitation outcomes. Using FSM to treat proprioceptive deficits aids in the activation and strengthening of muscles such as the serratus and latissimus dorsi to restore proper motor functions. This approach underscores the importance of treating the origin of muscular or neurological dysfunction rather than just the symptoms. ### Leveraging Case Histories in Rehabilitation Case studies offer valuable insights, underscoring the importance of integrating clinical experience with FSM protocols. Compiling detailed patient histories and clinical outcomes can guide effective case management, allowing practitioners to evolve their practices to better serve patients. For instance, addressing afflictions such as Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) or Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-1) through tailored FSM protocols can yield a significant improvement in symptoms. Offering a custom care approach—like running shingles protocols for specific viruses—enhances treatment efficacy. ### Integrating Continuous Learning and Patient Engagement Encouraging active recovery and integrating FSM into patient care plans should involve continuous patient education and engagement. By explaining the treatment process and leveraging FSM technology, practitioners can foster patient buy-in and collaboration, vital components for successful health outcomes. Building a rapport and fostering a sense of safety can turn routine appointments into positive, transformative experiences for patients. ### Empowering Practitioners with FSM Tools The use of FSM goes beyond application to include training on recognizing patterns of symptoms that suggest deeper, unaddressed disorders. By learning to screen for and identify conditions like vestibular disorders, practitioners can direct patients toward appropriate resources and interventions—such as recommending 3D imaging or vestibular rehabilitation. ### Moving Forward with Confidence and Fun The journey toward excellence is rooted in a practitioner's ability to find joy and satisfaction in patient successes achieved through FSM. As practitioners explore these therapies with enthusiasm, they foster an environment of positivity that resonates with patients, enhancing experiences and encouraging recovery.

Carolyn McMakin, MA, DC - https://frequencyspecific.com/  Kim Pittis, LCSP, (PHYS), MT - https://fsmsports365.com/ 00:26 Dr. Carol's Costa Rica Experience 04:48 Unexpected Healing Pathways 06:10 Connecting the Dots in Treatment 13:22 Emotional Components of Treatment 19:37 Addressing Epilepsy and FSM 25:10 FSM Device Safety and Guidelines 31:00 Social Media and FSM Community 32:11 Clarifying Sleep Issues 33:27 Sleep Hygiene Tips 35:50 Concussion Protocols and Sleep 37:57 FSM and Device Usage 41:00 Vestibular Injuries and Treatment 49:11 Advanced Course and Symposium 51:53 Final Thoughts on Pain and Treatment Understanding and Managing Pain Changes A recurring theme in patient care is the unexpected change in pain patterns. Pain shouldn't always be seen as a sign of something terrible; rather, it's an indicator of what the body needs next. A common misconception is that the healing process is linear. However, practitioners must recognize that healing can be non-linear, especially when working with conditions like connective tissue disorders. When patients experience new symptoms, it suggests that the body's compensatory mechanisms are shifting, often revealing underlying issues that need attention. When working with patients, it's essential to communicate that changes in pain are a natural part of the healing process. Medical practitioners are encouraged to adopt a mindset of curiosity over concern, using new symptoms as clues for subsequent treatment steps. Emphasizing a holistic approach, practitioners should explore all potential sources of discomfort, including postural imbalances or previous injuries, and encourage patients not to panic but rather to view these changes as part of their healing journey. Effective Treatment Protocols FSM treatments are most effective when practitioners are adaptable and ready for shifts in patient conditions. Regularly revisiting and altering treatment plans is crucial. While some patients might experience immediate relief, others could face new challenges as the body adjusts. Practitioners should prepare for these scenarios, ensuring an ongoing dialogue with patients to address arising concerns and adjust treatment protocols accordingly. For some, the path to relief involves twice-weekly sessions for several weeks to address compensations and emergent conditions. The approach should be iterative; assess, treat, and reevaluate continually as new symptoms present themselves. Handling Specific Clinical Scenarios 1. **Vestibular and Neurological Concerns**: When using protocols such as "94 and 94" frequencies, some patients may report dizziness or discomfort due to vestibular system reactions. Thus, it's vital to perform a vestibular screen before initiating treatment. If any vestibular issues are detected, utilizing calming frequencies like "40 and 44" can stabilize the patient's condition. 2. **Epilepsy and Seizure Disorders**: There is some concern about treating epileptic patients with FSM. It's important to avoid direct current paths through the brain but focus on peripheral treatments such as the concussion protocol, which can aid in managing seizure disorders. Practitioners must weigh these treatment options carefully and seek clarification where needed—especially if misinformation has been disseminated through other channels. Advancements in Sleep Management Sleep issues are widespread; hence, understanding their underlying causes is crucial. Practitioners should probe beyond superficial sleep complaints to determine whether pain, anxiety, or lifestyle factors contribute to the problem. For instance, addressing pain with specific FSM protocols can significantly enhance sleep quality. Moreover, discussing sleep hygiene with patients is essential.

Hear about travel to Kosrae and Pohnpei in the Federated States of Micronesia as the Amateur Traveler talks to Lexie Brown from @lexienicolebrown on Instagram about her explorations of this remote island country. This week's show is supported by the new Smart Travel Podcast. Travel smarter — and spend less — with help from NerdWallet. Check out Smart Travel ⁠⁠here. Why should you go to the Federated States of Micronesia? Lexie says, "It is a place that's so unique, and, I think, unmatched when it comes to experiencing ancient Micronesian culture. And what's interesting about the FSM is that there are four states, and each of those states is made up of either one island or over a hundred islands, split up in a lagoon. So it's very diverse and even because each state is so far apart, they have their own language and their own culture." Lexie recommends an itinerary that focuses on Kosrae and Pohnpei, two of the four states that make up the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) Suggested Itinerary Overview Duration: About one weekRoute: Start in Kosrae for nature, hiking, and ancient ruins Continue to Pohnpei for waterfalls, diving, and the famous Nan Madol ruins (Optional extensions: Yap for traditional culture during Yap Week in March, and Chuuk for advanced wreck diving in Truk Lagoon)  ... https://amateurtraveler.com/travel-to-the-federated-states-of-micronesia/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode Quotes from Kevin Weaver:   "If we can quantify delivered capacity on the air side, we can work our way back to what's happening on the refrigerant side."    "We don't have to diagnose everything remotely — we have to be great at saying, 'there's a problem,' and prioritizing action."    "Even the best design can be wrecked at installation. Execution matters."    Chief Engineering Officer Kevin Weaver joins Eric and Bill to go beyond "remote monitoring" and explain how SmartAC is really a loyalty and trade-intelligence platform for residential HVAC. With three simple wireless sensors — a supply-air "comfort" sensor (temp/RH), a filter sensor (temp/static pressure), and a water sensor — plus a cloud-connected hub, SmartAC tracks delivered capacity and trends changes over time. That minimum viable data set lets contractors catch problems early, prioritize the right calls, and give homeowners peace of mind without needing full remote gauges.   Kevin walks through the contractor toolset, which includes a white-labeled homeowner app, a Pro app for technicians, and a partner dashboard that also integrates with Field Service Management. (FSM) systems like ServiceTitan. The result is fewer emergency visits, healthier memberships, and durable customer relationships (i.e., less ad spend, more lifetime value). He previews Gen-2 hardware (more sensing in more places, stronger radios), battery options (18 months on AA lithiums or 5–8 years with a long-life pack), and notes that SmartAC is approaching 100k homes sold — building one of the most extensive residential HVAC data sets for richer insights across brands, geographies, and system types.   We conclude with wisdom from Kevin's Texas A&M research: even great designs can fail due to poor execution. Right-size returns, stretch flex, use collars and mastic, and keep static in check. SmartAC's data helps expose oversizing, blower mis-settings, and undersized returns in days, transforming maintenance plans into smart maintenance and turning "transactional" customers into lifelong customers.   Kevin's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevin-weaver/ SmartAC: www.smartac.com   Earlier episode with founder Josh Teekell (Ep. 136):  https://www.buildinghvacscience.com/ep136-utilizing-smart-maintenance-plans-benefits-your-customers-and-your-business-with-josh-teekell/   This episode was recorded in October 2025.

It's crucial to dig deeper into emotional blockages that may hinder physical recovery. Practitioners are encouraged to consider the emotional frequencies within FSM, as these can dramatically alter the healing process. Patients often experience breakthroughs when practitioners address underlying fear, abandonment, and loneliness alongside physical symptoms. *Neurological Pathways and Safe Movement Patterns* Understanding the integration of the neurophysical endocrine system is pivotal. Initiating safe movement patterns early in treatment expedites the healing process. Safe movements coupled with emotional reassurance can lead to significant improvement. Practitioners should pay attention to the essential sequence of treatments, including using FSM to reduce fear-based responses that manifest as physical blockages. *Addressing Scar Tissue and Radiated Areas* For patients with radiation exposure or chronic scar tissue, FSM can be transformative. Treating scar tissue and areas affected by radiation requires a comprehensive approach. Practitioners are advised to consider the full impact of radiation through all tissue layers, including the dura, periosteum, and connective tissues. Clearing radiation and scar tissue effectively demands an understanding of the interconnectivity between these structures. *The Importance of Holistic Listening* Effective FSM application goes beyond hands-on therapy; it involves attentive listening to the patient's body and narrative. Practitioners are encouraged to cultivate skills that allow them to sense through touch and carefully listen to what the body communicates. This not only aids in diagnosing but accelerates the treatment process as patients feel acknowledged and safe during interventions. *Practical Considerations in Treatment Applications* Practitioners are reminded of the importance of step-by-step frameworks in applying FSM, starting with foundational emotional and physical assessments. The treatment process should be adaptive, maintaining a balance between physical maneuvers and machine settings to optimize patient outcomes. Recognizing the inherent response of tissues to FSM is key to advancing therapeutic efficacy. *Overcoming Conventional Barriers in Therapy* The FSM approach challenges traditional therapy's limitations. It asks practitioners to consider trauma memory and emotional shifts in therapy sessions actively. As the understanding of the body's electro-magnetic system grows, practitioners can harness this knowledge to create lasting improvement and comfort for patients.

Understanding and applying these concepts can considerably improve the efficacy of treatment protocols, particularly for complex conditions that seem resistant to traditional medical approaches. **Deceleration and Proprioception: Key Components in Preventing Injuries** One philosophy that has emerged as particularly impactful is the emphasis on teaching deceleration before acceleration. This notion suggests that before one can effectively teach movement, one must first master the art of controlled stopping. Most athletic injuries occur during the deceleration phase, not during acceleration. Thus, by focusing on deceleration, practitioners can help prevent common injuries such as sprained ankles or ACL tears. Proprioception, the body's ability to perceive its position in space, is at the heart of this philosophy. By incorporating proprioceptive exercises into treatment plans, practitioners can improve joint stability, which is crucial for both athletes and individuals recovering from injury. **Rehabilitation Beyond Conventional Exercise: A Shift to Movement Patterns** In educational courses, there's often a pushback against the term "exercise," favoring instead "movement patterns." This shift underscores the idea that movement should be functional and adaptable, whether the patient is a professional athlete or someone in their later years simply aiming to maintain an active lifestyle. These movement-based therapies aim to rehabilitate through enhancing the body's natural motion, making it apt for both sports and non-sports-related scenarios. This focus on movement patterns rather than just exercises assists in improving the rehabilitation process. The integration of these methods results in moves that feel safe and contribute to the healing process, enhancing the effectiveness of physical rehabilitation courses. **The Role of Pain Perception and Safety in Rehabilitation** In any therapeutic setting, the perception of safety is paramount. Movement, when perceived as safe, can significantly aid in the repair and rehabilitation process. Practitioners often encounter patients whose progress stalls due to underlying fears of movement, frequently linked to unresolved injuries or ineffective past treatments. Addressing these fears by creating a safe environment for pain-free movement can unlock significant improvements in recovery outcomes. Furthermore, the importance of addressing underlying neural issues, such as nerve adhesions that may be preventing recovery, cannot be overstated. Practitioners must be attuned to these details, ensuring that the patient feels safe enough for their body to relax and heal.

John sits down with Zac Dearing (Mantel) to break down how top HVAC, plumbing, and electrical companies are moving from “proposal tools” to true shopping experiences that help homeowners buy with confidence—and help teams close more, faster. They dig into hard data from Mantel's platform and homeowner survey: why Tuesdays are the biggest sales day, how response time and proposal view time (“eyeball time”) predict closes, and why a 10-point jump in proposal strength correlates with ~$960 higher average ticket. They also cover remote/virtual selling (and what a high-fidelity, open-cart experience can look like), pricing transparency (69% of homeowners try to find a price online…only 15% find something clear), extended-warranty strategies, and what changes between a $10M shop and a $100M shop (hint: ruthless simplicity). If you want a concrete playbook for modern sales—benchmarks, coaching levers, and systems that scale—this one's for you.

Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) emerges as a beacon of hope for practitioners seeking effective alternatives to conventional care. This modality offers innovative solutions for chronic issues, often unresponsive to traditional treatments, and underpins a concerted approach to harnessing the principles of orthobiologics and metabolic pathways. **Orthobiologics and FSM: Enhancing Recovery Outcomes** Orthobiologics has been a game-changer in regenerative medicine, particularly for procedures like Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections. FSM complements these procedures by offering a tailored approach to pain management and tissue healing. It's crucial to understand that the biologic process involved in healing can be supported by FSM without hindering inflammation, which is a vital part of recovery. Therefore, the application of FSM is strategically customized based on the stage of healing and the patient's specific needs. **Adapting FSM Protocols to Individual Patient Needs** It's important to emphasize that FSM protocols are not one-size-fits-all. Practitioners must assess the stage of healing and tailor FSM settings accordingly. In the context of post-PRP procedures, considerations such as the level of pain and stage of recovery influence protocol selections. Moreover, the intricate mechanisms of action in FSM require practitioners to eliminate certain frequencies, such as those that might suppress necessary inflammatory responses during healing phases. **Engaging with Patient Histories for Enhanced Therapeutic Outcomes** FSM practice thrives on the understanding that patient histories are critical to therapeutic success. Each patient's narrative provides insight into their unique experiences and expectations regarding pain management and recovery. A profound exploration of patient histories allows practitioners to piece together a comprehensive understanding, which is instrumental in tailoring FSM treatments effectively. **Integrating Emotional and Psychosocial Dimensions in Patient Care** The emotional and psychological dimensions of pain are powerful determinants of patient outcomes. Engaging with these aspects can unearth underlying issues contributing to chronic pain. Encouraging patients to envision their lives post-recovery invites a positive mindset and diminishes the psychological fatigue associated with prolonged pain management. Practitioners are urged to facilitate discussions about the patient's life without pain, fostering an environment of hope and possibility. **Educating Patients as Vital Partners in Their Treatment Journey** Ultimately, FSM practitioners should view themselves as educators and facilitators in the healing journey. Effective communication regarding prognosis, realistic outcomes, and the importance of adherence to FSM protocols can empower patients. Providing comprehensive education about their condition and treatment plan helps patients internalize the importance of active participation and compliance, ultimately optimizing their health outcomes.

This separation is not only vital for the psychological well-being of patients but also aids in more effective treatment plans. Encouraging patients to see themselves as more than their condition or activity can lead to improved mental health and motivation in their treatment journeys. **Parkinson's Disease: A Case Study** Parkinson's presents a unique challenge due to its progressive nature, often associated with basal ganglia degradation. There are valuable insights into managing symptoms and improving patient quality of life. Treatment strategies include: - **Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM):** This tool can reduce symptoms such as tremors when used effectively in conjunction with personalized strategies like correcting spine alignment. - **Treatment Individualization:** Recognizing patient individuality is crucial. Each person responds differently, necessitating personalized protocols that address specific symptoms and underlying causes like toxicity or viral exposure.    **Managing Autoimmune Conditions** Autoimmune conditions like hyperthyroidism highlight the complexity of the immune response. Practitioners are encouraged to explore treatments beyond the conventional approach: - **Vagus Nerve Stimulation:** Enhances immune regulation, potentially reducing inflammation and promoting overall well-being. - **Root Cause Analysis:** Identifying triggers and underlying factors, such as trauma or infection, that may precede disease onset, allows for a more holistic treatment plan. **The Role of the Vagus Nerve** The vagus nerve plays a critical role in various bodily functions, including inflammation reduction and brain health. Practitioners should explore strategies to stimulate the vagus nerve and thus improve conditions like Parkinson's and autoimmune disorders. **Approach to Infection and Mold Toxicity** For conditions exacerbated by molds or chronic infections, such as toxic mold exposure, a comprehensive approach including antifungal medication, antibiotics for specific bacterial strains, and sinus care is recommended. This approach helps manage symptoms and enables practitioners to guide patients more effectively toward recovery. **Pain Perception and Trauma** Understanding patients' pain perception and how much it affects them psychologically is vital. Strategies to address not just the physical aspect of pain, but also its psychological impact, can enhance treatment outcomes. Techniques such as FSM can help reduce pain by addressing both physical and emotional components.

This highlights the importance of creating a safe foundation for the nervous system to facilitate new movement patterns. FSM plays a crucial role by helping create this safe environment, allowing for long-term pain reduction and the integration of effective movement patterns. **Troubleshooting Chronic Pain and Patient Management** Practitioners often encounter patients who have tried multiple treatments and modalities with little to no success. Understanding why certain muscles or movements are not firing, instead of simplifying diagnoses to issues like "weak glutes," is essential. Engaging with patients through comprehensive assessments, and considering underlying mechanical reasons for persistent issues, are steps FSM practitioners often emphasize. **Neurosensory Integration and Chronic Conditions** For those handling patients with chronic pain, connecting various sensory inputs to the brain's sensory motor cortex can improve patient outcomes. Addressing issues such as nerve adhesion, inflammation, and the mind's perception of pain is vital. FSM's ability to manipulate real-time nervous system responses allows practitioners to re-establish sensory pathways and regain movement functions. **Gratitude, Professional Development, and Patient-Centered Care** A key takeaway for practitioners is to maintain an attitude of gratitude for their profession and the constant learning it provides. Professionals in FSM often discuss the importance of loving what you do and continuously striving to improve your abilities. Additionally, placing the patient first by considering their goals, the realism of achieving these, and understanding when FSM is not the right solution reflect the ethical cores of patient-centered care. **The Importance of Connection and Community** For practitioners, engaging with enthusiastic individuals who share a passion for the same methodologies can enrich their learning experience and provide support. Whether it's helping professional athletes optimally perform or working with patients suffering from chronic illnesses, a community that shares insights and offers collaborative problem-solving is invaluable. Medical students and practitioners should consider how the principles discussed in the FSM podcast can be integrated into their practice to enhance patient outcomes.

Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) offers a breakthrough solution for these challenges, providing effective treatment options for conditions that were once deemed intractable. Below, we explore practical insights and techniques that medical practitioners can incorporate into their practice, drawn from experiences in using FSM to address nerve pain. The Challenge of Identifying Treatment Effectiveness When patients do not visibly feel the effects of FSM during treatment, it raises the question of how practitioners can ascertain if the therapy is working. Initial pain relief is an evident indicator; however, alternative markers such as improved range of motion or delayed onset of pain alleviation can also signal effectiveness. Practitioners should encourage patients to monitor their pain levels and range of motion post-treatment to evaluate its impact. Managing Expectations and Exploring Options Chronic nerve pain may not always yield immediate relief. Practitioners must advise patients that while the effects may not be instant, a progressive approach—evaluating changes over the course of hours or days—is essential. This ensures that patients understand FSM is one tool among many, aiding practitioners to pivot in treatment approaches as necessary to suit individual needs. Current Type and Frequency Decisions Not all FSM treatments are identical, with varying currents and frequencies applicable based on the patient profile. The choice between alternating and polarized positive currents can affect treatment outcomes, and starting with default protocols like alternating for non-athletes or polarized positive for athletes can be beneficial. Continuous assessment and adaptation of these settings based on patient response form an integral part of personalized FSM therapy. The Complexity and Fluidity of Pain Diagnosis Practitioners often encounter patients with multifaceted conditions where nerve pain is only one symptom. It's crucial to distinguish whether pain originates from nerve damage or other structural or musculoskeletal issues. For instance, pain labeled as nerve-related might sometimes result from facet joint issues or disc problems. Thus, thorough evaluations and applying the specific currents and frequencies designed for these conditions are vital for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. Treatment Strategies for Recurrent and Complex Pain Those practicing FSM should also recognize that symptoms can sometimes resurface, suggesting underlying issues were not fully resolved. This necessitates a proactive approach in evaluating and adjusting treatment plans based on ongoing patient feedback and reevaluation of initial diagnoses.  Importance of Education and Continuous Learning Treating nerve pain effectively with FSM involves understanding both the body's physiology and the patient's individual experience. Continuous learning and application of FSM protocols ensure practitioners keep abreast of best practices, thus providing patients with comprehensive care.  By integrating these insights into practice, medical professionals can enhance treatment regimens involving Frequency Specific Microcurrent to manage nerve pain and related conditions, ultimately offering their patients improved quality of care and hopeful recovery outcomes.

Understanding its origins and the strategic interventions available can significantly improve patient outcomes. Here, we delve into the approach to diagnosing and treating shoulder pain, based on an insightful discussion between two seasoned practitioners exploring the anatomy and pathology of shoulder complications. Recognizing the Root Cause of Shoulder Pain Shoulder pain often masks its true source. It might manifest as discomfort between the shoulder blades, often misleading practitioners to consider muscle strain as the primary cause. However, deeper exploration usually reveals that the disc is a more likely culprit. In cases where a patient describes pain akin to "a knife between the shoulder blades," the immediate focus should be on discs 4-5 and 5-6. A strategic approach targets the discs to alleviate the most severe pain, followed by nerve treatment, which is crucial in reducing persistent discomfort. The Transition from Frequency to Strategy in Treatment Treatment has evolved significantly over the past two decades. The transition from a frequency-based to a strategy-focused approach reflects a deeper understanding gained from years of practice and evolving patient outcomes. This involves assessing shoulder mechanics holistically and addressing sequelae like nerve irritation and muscle imbalance. In chronic and acute cases, the intervention sequence becomes critical: reducing nerve irritation, restoring proper mechanics, and ensuring the subscapularis and pec minor are addressed to prevent further injury. The Role of the Environment and Lifestyle in Pain Management Environmental and lifestyle factors contribute profoundly to shoulder health. Misalignment in everyday activities or prolonged stress due to poor posture can exacerbate shoulder pain and complicate recovery. It's vital for practitioners to investigate these daily life contributors—such as ergonomics during computer use or mundane activities like lifting objects. Encouraging patients to maintain activity logs can help identify subtle but impactful triggers; practitioners can then guide them to modify such activities to prevent flare-ups. Comprehensive, Collaborative Care Collaboration in care can't be overstated. For chronic conditions that stubbornly resist resolution, a comprehensive team approach can uncover the unseen nuances of the patient's condition. It's about combining FSM with other therapeutic modalities to address not only the mechanical but also the nutritional and emotional aspects affecting patients' conditions. Practitioners are encouraged to embrace a collaborative model where knowledge and treatment strategies are shared and integrated across disciplines to optimize patient recovery and reduce recurrence. Empowering Patients Through Education Patient education is indispensable in managing shoulder pain. Practitioners should communicate clearly about how seemingly trivial actions can have cascading effects on their condition. Understanding that no magical cure exists but rather a pathway to gradual recovery helps demystify the process and empowers patients. Encouraging self-awareness and providing them with the tools to recognize early symptoms and lifestyle triggers are essential steps toward sustaining their wellness. Building a Decades-Long Legacy With this strategic and compassionate approach, FSM and related treatments promise an enduring legacy in modern medicine. Bridging the gap between frequency-specific therapies and comprehensive care strategies continues to expand, offering medical practitioners robust methods to enhance patient outcomes. By continuously updating their knowledge and collaborating across specialties, practitioners can ensure that they are not only solving but also learning from each new case they encounter.

As practitioners, we're often tasked with unraveling a rich tapestry of patient history to identify the underlying causes of such chronic pain. In this case, FSM can be applied following a multi-step approach: 1. Initial Assessment and History Gathering: Begin by engaging the patient in a thorough discussion of their history, including any incidents or accidents that may have led to their current condition. In our example, the patient's story revealed an auto accident and past falls, crucial in pinpointing the injury's origin. 2. Targeting Nerve Pain: When the patient mentions numbness, FSM provides a targeted approach by addressing the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. Application of specific frequencies, such as 40 Hz for reducing inflammation, and 81 Hz for increasing secretion, can begin to alleviate symptoms that have persisted for years. 3. Sequential Treatment: Prioritize treating the most significant pain sources first. In complex cases like the one described, precedence was given to treating the low back before addressing the neck, which was expected to respond more quickly. 4. Patient Education and Exercises: Educate the patient on exercises that complement FSM treatments. Encouraging the adoption of proper posture and ergonomics can sustain improvements achieved through FSM, specifically by instructing on sitting positions that align and support the spine. 5. Continuous Evaluation and Adjustment: Encourage follow-up visits to track progress. Adjust treatments based on changes observed, ensuring the patient remains engaged in their care plan. --- Addressing Complex Injury and Pain Cases with a Holistic View FSM is not isolated to a single treatment approach but integrates with the broader biological and anatomical understanding of each patient's unique case. For instance, treating another patient's inability to achieve full knee extension post-replacement could involve: - Understanding Surgical Impact: Acknowledge the surgical trauma and resulting tightness in tendons due to the procedure. - Applying FSM with Precision: Utilize frequencies that target scarring and torn connective tissues. Application should focus on areas identified as problematic, such as the hamstrings in this scenario. --- Implementing FSM with Confidence Medical practitioners must prepare themselves to confidently implement FSM. This involves: - Training and Education: Participate in FSM training programs to fully understand precise frequency applications and device manipulations tailored to patient-specific conditions. - Collaborative Practice: Work closely with a team of healthcare professionals, sharing insights and results to improve overall patient outcomes. - Patient Communication: Maintain clear, informed communication with patients about their condition, treatment rationale, and expected outcomes, fostering trust and active participation in their care. By weaving FSM into clinical practice, practitioners can uncover new pathways to treat chronic pain effectively and positively impact patient recovery journeys. Remember, the key is integrating FSM with a patient-centered, comprehensive plan that acknowledges the intricacy of each individual's condition.

Patients and practitioners alike may begin their FSM journey with doubt. Embracing this skepticism is crucial, as it opens opportunities for education and evidence-based discussions. Encourage open dialogue with patients about their symptoms and FSM's capabilities, and involve them actively in their treatment plans. Understanding the Nervous System and Its Impact Recognition of the nervous system's role in chronic conditions is vital. FSM practitioners must consider interactions between the nervous system, stress, trauma, and chronic pain. FSM can effectively calibrate the nervous system, reducing hypersensitivity by modulating the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems, which can be particularly beneficial for patients experiencing chronic pain or stress-related conditions. Case Studies and Application: A Holistic Approach When dealing with athletic injuries or chronic conditions like arthritis or osteoporosis, FSM practitioners should consider both the mechanical and biochemical contributors to the affliction. Practitioners are encouraged to take a holistic approach, assessing both the physical and emotional impact on the patient. In doing so, they can tailor FSM protocols to the specific needs of each individual, addressing both immediate symptoms and underlying causes. For instance, in cases such as osteoarthritis, while FSM doesn't regenerate lost tissue, it provides a management strategy to alleviate pain and improve quality of life. Similarly, FSM can effectively manage rheumatoid arthritis by focusing on inflammation, immune response, and associated vagus nerve activity. FSM and the Thalamus: Exploring New Frontiers The thalamus, a crucial part of the central nervous system, plays a key role in pain perception. FSM's ability to influence thalamic activity highlights its potential in treating conditions like phantom limb pain and thalamic strokes. Practitioners should consider using FSM to explore unconventional brain areas, facilitating unexpected therapeutic outcomes. Complex Case Management: Customized Protocols Complex cases involving conditions like hepatitis C or idiopathic chronic pain require personalized FSM protocols. Practitioners are encouraged to develop custom programs based on individual patient histories, utilizing frequencies for virus management, liver function, and more. The results, while varying, can offer significant relief and management of symptoms. Educating Patients: Building Trust and Engagement Educating patients about FSM therapy's scope and limits is essential for setting realistic expectations. Practitioners should focus on the collaborative nature of FSM treatments, encouraging patient involvement and feedback. This collaborative approach builds trust and fosters a productive therapeutic environment. Conclusion: A Future of Innovation and Collaboration Integrating FSM into medical practice requires an open mind, critical thinking, and a willingness to explore beyond conventional boundaries. As FSM continues to evolve, medical practitioners should maintain a commitment to innovation and patient-centered care, ensuring that the integration of FSM aligns with both clinical best practices and the specific needs of their patients. Through ongoing education and collaboration, FSM can become a vital tool in advancing patient care and outcomes.
