    Do you have any financial interest in Plaster, Inc?
    Are there any peer reviewed double blind studies to back up your claims?

    How dare you question it. Of course there is. However they haven't quite been published yet (Translation: should be another 10 or so years before it is). Its been done by [insert name of unknown researcher here], PhD. (Translation: He was the only mug willing) at [insert name of small 3rd world university here]. (Translation: No real researchers will do the work for the pitance we were offering).

    Kevin, I find your testimonial significantly flawed... Where are the experts with unrelated qualifications? Where, pray tell, is the flashy computerised patient reassurance mechanism that allows pixels to do what those degrees on the walls never could? What opportunities does this offer for those unencumbered by training, skills, experience or concern for their patients?
    For shame!
    Seriously, you should think twice before spreading anything so dangerous as a tried and tested method of providing a reliable outcome for patient care in so public a forum. Tell you what though. Charge me enough $$$ for your plaster and I might not tell anyone important about your transgression..
     
  7. I forgot to mention the other health benefits of Non Weightbearing Plaster Negative Casting!:

    Non Weightbearing Plaster Negative Casting Can Help You

    Non Weightbearing Plaster Negative Casting affects the body in many positive ways.


    Foot, Knee, Back, Neck, Jaw Pain

    Non Weightbearing Plaster Negative Casting repositions the posture into a more correct alignment. This reduces the stress on the muscles, which allows them to heal.

    Respiratory

    By straightening the shoulders, Non Weightbearing Plaster Negative Casting opens the ribcage and pressure is taken off the lungs. This allows for easier breathing.

    Intestinal and Bowel

    Non Weightbearing Plaster Negative Casting reverses the anterior rotation of the innominates (hips), which in turn, positionally decompresses the intestines and colon. Waste products pass through the colon more quickly and efficiently, eliminating the pain associated with gastro-intestinal distress.

    Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

    Non Weightbearing Plaster Negative Casting improves posture, which in turn, reduces hypertonicity (tightness and strain) within the postural muscles. Lactic acid is reduced. The body has more energy.

    Diabetic Ulcers

    With improved postural positioning of the foot with Non Weightbearing Plaster Negative Casting, blood flow into the foot is greatly enhanced. This allows the diabetic ulcer to heal, reducing the likelihood of a partial or complete foot amputation.

    Infertility

    Non Weightbearing Plaster Negative Casting reverses the anterior (forward) rotation of the pelvis. This decreases the possibility of a blockage (Isthmus Block) between the ovaries and the fallopian (uterine) tubule, where conception normally occurs. The egg passes more freely from the ovaries into the fallopian tubule. Impregnation is facilitated (chances of becoming pregnant are improved).

    Menstruation

    By reducing the forward rotation of the pelvis, Non Weightbearing Plaster Negative Casting reduces the blockage between the uterus and the vagina. This allows the waste materials, generated by menstruation, to be passed out of the body more efficiently. This in turn, diminishes or greatly reduces menstrual pain (and low back pain).

    Headaches

    Many headaches arise from tension in the neck muscles. By positioning the head over the spine, Non Weightbearing Plaster Negative Casting relaxes the neck muscles. Headaches become less frequent and less intense.

    Fibromyalgia

    Many patients have pain symptoms, foot to jaw. It is not uncommon for these patients to be diagnosed as having Fibromyalgia. One healthcare specialist in Chicago talks about her experiences using Non Weightbearing Plaster Negative Casting in their Fibromyalgic Clinic and the results they have seen over the past five years.

    A Profound Effect

    Non Weightbearing Plaster Negative Casting, as you can see has a profound effect on the body, solving so many chronic body problems, that in the past were considered unsolvable. This is done naturally, without the use or need of surgery or drugs. It just makes good sense to treat your body in a kind and respectful way, allowing it to heal itself naturally.

    Where are the Snake Oil Salesmen when I need them to help me list some more selling features for my product! :cool: :rolleyes: :eek: :D
