Orthopaedic assessment is more than just testing movement—it’s your body’s way of communicating with your massage therapist. By using standardized, evidence-informed tests, an RMT can pinpoint the true source of pain, collaborate seamlessly with other healthcare providers, and create a treatment plan that delivers faster, longer-lasting results.

Unlock the benefits of orthopaedic assessment driven assage therapy in addressing complex pain issues with targeted techniques.

Fascinating insight!

Researchers say abnormal proteins actually travel from somewhere else to the brain.

A groundbreaking study from Wuhan University suggests that Parkinson’s disease may originate in the kidneys, challenging long-held assumptions that it begins in the brain.

Researchers found abnormal clusters of alpha-synuclein (α-Syn) proteins—known to play a central role in Parkinson’s—in the kidneys of patients with the disease.

In animal experiments, healthy kidneys were able to clear these proteins, but malfunctioning kidneys allowed α-Syn to accumulate and spread to the brain, leading to neurological damage.

The study also found α-Syn buildup in patients with chronic kidney disease, even when no neurological symptoms were present. This raises the possibility that the kidneys may act as an early reservoir for pathological proteins, which later travel via blood or nerve pathways to the brain. Though the research is preliminary and based on small sample sizes, it opens a new frontier in Parkinson’s research—suggesting that kidney health could be a target for early intervention and new treatments. As researchers continue exploring non-brain origins of neurodegenerative diseases, these findings could reshape how we understand and manage Parkinson’s.

This is a very interesting story about a patient to traveled from Australia with a 7-year complex shoulder issue — and we figured it out!

A patient traveled from Australia to Alberta to uncover the real cause of 7 years of chronic shoulder pain. Discover how a rotated first rib was missed by traditional approaches—and how assessment-driven myofascial therapy made all the difference.
