TriggerPointVet

[Guest guest]

To my friends,

I have started a yahoo discussion group " TriggerPointVet " for the purpose of

generating discussions concerning myofascial pain and trigger points in dogs and

other veterinary patients. I invite you to join and participate in discussions

by openly sharing clinical opinions, observations and experiences. It is not my

purpose to compete with existing discussions groups but rather promote

information, knowledge and discussion of a very overlooked area of pain and

dysfunction.

This list is a “member’s only” list formed with the purpose of discussing

myofascial pain, myofascial trigger points, and other forms of myalgia in

veterinary patients. The list is open to veterinarians and licensed and/or

registered veterinary technicians. The list is also open to other healthcare

providers with interest and experience in working with animals, to include;

physical therapists, occupational therapists, physical therapy assistants,

massage therapists, athletic trainers, etc. For other healthcare providers

certification in veterinary rehabilitation is preferred but not required. Many

of the current participants completed the recent Canine Trigger Point Seminar by

Myopain Seminars at my offices in The Woodlands, TX. The next seminar will be

held in October 2012.

The list will not be moderated in that no one will preview or censor the posts.

It is however essential and expected, that members, conduct themselves in a

professional manner at all times. Differences of opinion and critical

questioning are not only allowed, but, encouraged. All comments, suggestions,

opinions, critical statements, etc., should be presented with professional

respect and with the purpose of advancement and elevation of the understanding

of myofascial pain and myofascial trigger points within the veterinary

community.

Discussions and posts within the group may not be offered to non-group members

without the express permission of the member(s) offering the information.

Failure to abide will result in immediate and permanent exclusion from the list.
