“Intercostals”
January 2026 Once again I have to apologize for not keeping up to date with the newsletter on my website as promised. I have no excuses but my lethargy and lack of motivation to write. I am still working on my narratives for Myomemory Advantage Transformation (M.A.T.) the fascial, neuromyofascial, and skeletal process I use…

“Surgery in 2026”
Once a again I have to apologize for not writing a newsletter for my website more often. However, I have continued to work on my M.A.T. educational courses. Again, M.A.T. is the acronym for Myofascial Advantage Transformation, the theory and process I use in the clinic. I am close to finishing, but still not completed. …

“The Mind-Body Connection and the Vagus Nerve”
I have recently been asked to give a lecture at the University of New Mexico’s integrative medicine class. I put together a lecture base on the topic of our healthcare system, mind-body dualism, positivism, and reductionism. As have already surmised, our healthcare system in this country is in a crisis. From this lecture, I hope…

“What Is Health In the U.S.”
“What is Health in the U.S.” Philosophical theories from human history about the nature of human beings has had far reaching consequences on our understanding of what it means to be healthy in this country even to this day.

“The Mind-Body Connection-The Vagus Nerve
“The Mind-Body Connection-The Vagus Nerve” We know today that both our mental and physical health are influenced by a combination of biological, psychological, and social factors. Therefore, the philosophies of mind body dualism and reductionism are antiquated and obsolete. Mind body dualism had its roots in the philosophy of science that goes back several centuries.…

“LATERAL BREATHING”
April 24, 2024 I mentioned in my last edition of the “The Myomemory Bulletin” that I would be writing on other proprioceptors involved with the dynamic dance involving your skeletal equilibrium, balance, stability, and mobility against the vertical forces of gravity and ground reaction force (GRF). However, I recently read a great article about “lateral…

“Asymmetry”
Before getting into this month’s newsletter, I need to inform you of my naming these newsletters “THE MYOMEMORY” BULLETIN.” Now to this month’s newsletter titled “Asymmetry.” Humans are inherently born asymmetrical when describing our anatomy and structure. The structure and location of our digestive, respiratory, and cardiovascular systems make us naturally asymmetrical to some degree.…

“The Forgotten Organ”
Well last year at this time, I made a New Year’s resolution for 2023 regarding being timely in writing my newsletters. I guess I am like the 91% of Americans that don’t complete their New Year’s resolutions. In fact, research goes onto show 23% of people quit their resolution by the end of the first…

“M.A.T.’S Spiral Pattern”
I apologize for my tardiness in getting out another newsletter on my website. It has been difficult to keep up with my New Years resolution of writing an article once a month because I am also writing manuals for my on-line courses teaching Myomemory Advantage Transformation (M.A.T.). Before getting into M.A.T.’S Spiral neuromyofascial pattern, let…

“M.A.T.’S Diagonal Pattern”
In my last newsletter I described the side linear neuromyofascial pattern, one of the four neuromyofascial patterns I have identified in Myomemory Transformation Advantage (M.A.T.), an integrated, general systems, and functional approach to evaluating human posture and movement I utilize at my clinic. This approach was developed from my education and experiences as a physical…
