Guest guest Posted March 15, 2002 Report Share Posted March 15, 2002 Hi, Would like to post the company that I find reasonable.

Guest guest Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 In addition I would like to note what Oregon says in regards to this: " IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING THE SALE, DISTRIBUTION AND PROMOTION OF NUTRACEUTICAL PRODUCTS BY PHYSICAL THERAPISTS It has come to the Board's attention that some physical therapists are selling nutraceuticals (nutritional supplements) in their clinic. At the Board's January 5, 2007 meeting, the Board determined that the sale, promotion and distribution of such products falls outside of the scope of practice of physical therapy. Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS)688.010(6) defines the practice of physical therapy. The sale, distribution and/or promotion of nutraceutical products is not incorporated in this definition. An Independent Associate from Univera LifeSciences, which manufactures several nutraceutical products including " Ageless Xtra " and " RegeniCARE " , was present at the Board meeting. Following the meeting, the Associate shared the Board's decision with the company executives and other associates so that the company's products should not be marketed for sale in physical therapy clinics. Representatives from other nutraceutical companies were not present at the meeting. Effective immediately, Licensees shall not promote, distribute or sell nutraceutical products in a therapy office or in any capacity as a physical therapist or physical therapist assistant. Licensees who choose to sell or market nutraceutical products, outside of their practice as a physical therapist or physical therapist assistant, may do so. " - - - Not that I endorse pushing supplements, but why is it a personal trainer can assist their client in that area and we are unable to do so? Chiropractors, personal trainers and massage therapists in this state can and many do sell supplements. Of course most of what they do is bogus multi-level marketing crap which probably doesn't do any good. Anyway, that is why I use a registered dietitian to assist in this area.
