Treating Acute and Chronic Neck Pain With Ischemic Compression and Exercise

What's on Your Table?
By Ruth Werner, LMP, NCTMB, Massage Therapy Foundation President
I have the single best job in the world for me, anyway. It is my pleasure and privilege to teach students of massage therapy about the role of bodywork in the context of pathology. I get to research and talk about diseases for several hours every week.This gives me the opportunity to renew my awe of the human body on a regular basis. I am honored to live in a state of constant appreciation for the elegance of our design and the strength of our recuperative powers.
As increasing numbers of people seek out massage as a way to take control of their health, it has become more important for massage therapists to be conversant with a wide variety of disorders. While it is tempting to "rubber stamp" some situations as indicated or contraindicated for massage, we all know that this is an impossible task.
The very word "massage" means different things to different people, and each modality carries its own set of rules and guidelines for working in the context of disease. The disease process may manifest completely differently from one person to another. Add other variables like basic resiliency, a history of receiving massage, diet, sleeping habits, medications, ad infinitum, and it becomes clear that making decisions about the appropriateness of massage must happen on a day-by-day, case-by-case basis.
My job as a teacher is to give students the tools to make informed judgments about the relative risks and benefits of their work, so that they can make the best possible choices for their clients. Sometimes that choice will be to alter their goals for the day; sometimes it will be to reschedule the appointment for another time. Sometimes it may even be to call a cab to get to a hospital. Certainly we hope that these are uncommon situations, but as massage moves further into the mainstream, our chance of being asked to work with clients who have precarious health situations increases every day.
The uncomfortable truth is, there are few hard-and-fast rules about massage in the context of disease, and most of those rules can be carefully broken, under the right circumstances. As a person who tries to stay current on the role of bodywork in the disease process, I am eager to find out what other therapists are doing with their clients who may be in ill health. My guess is that the majority of practicing therapists who went to school more than a few years ago received little or no training on the subject of pathology. We were told, "when in doubt, check with the doctor" an admirable, but rarely practical recourse. My experience with teaching this material to current students and therapists in pursuit of CEUs is that not many of us feel confident that our skills and knowledge are up to speed on this topic.
I hope with this column to open a line of communication between massage therapists. Let us share our concerns about working with clients who have complicated health pictures. I invite therapists to send me information about their experiences with clients whose health has made working with them a special challenge. My vision is for this to be a place where we can all share, in a setting that is respectful of each other and of our clients, our questions and concerns about massage: "Should I have worked with that client? Could I catch whatever this person has? Is there a better way to help someone with this condition? What could happen if I work with someone who has this disorder?" This respectful setting is an important issue. Few things elicit strong emotional responses from massage therapists like someone making pronouncements about health. Although this is a subject we all take seriously, I ask us all to be open-minded and open-hearted in our discourse. Let us aim for an attitude of positive support for each other in our chosen profession, not of judgment that "my modality is better than yours."
So here is how it will work: You, send me brief, true case histories of clients whose health picture caused you some concern. (It will be my job to protect the confidentiality of the massage therapists who contact me, and the confidentiality of their clients.) Let me know what you did that you think worked, or didn't work, or that you'd like to try if you get another chance. I will take the incoming stories and sort through them to come to a conclusion about what people want to read. Then, in a subsequent issue of Massage Today, I will discuss the disorder in question, in terms of how it affects the body, and the relative risks and benefits of bodywork in various forms. I will incorporate your information and try to draw some conclusions about how best to accommodate similar clients. I will also try to include resources where interested readers can go for more information.
Here's a news flash: I am not infallible, and there is a stunning lack of information about how massage affects most conditions. I make decisions, and I teach my students to make decisions, based on the knowledge of how a condition affects normal body processes, and how various types of bodywork can influence that progression. Sooner or later (probably sooner) I will write something that some of you will disagree with. I invite you to share your concerns with me, as long as it is done in a spirit of open-mindedness and open-heartedness that allows for mutual respect and benefit.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Study: Elective early-term deliveries can increase complications
ROCHESTER, Minn. — Enduring the last few weeks of pregnancy can be physically and emotionally challenging for some women. The aches and pains, the swelling of the limbs and the anxiety of when labor may start are part of the natural gestation process, but they also can seem unbearable. It may seem easier to relieve symptoms associated with late pregnancy by electing to deliver early, but Mayo Clinic researchers caution that there can be an increased risk of complications to the mother and the newborn associated with early-term deliveries.
Mayo researchers recently published a review article on this topic in the journal Mayo Clinic Proceedings.
Historically, a full-term pregnancy is calculated as 40 weeks after the last menstrual period. A term pregnancy occurs at 37 weeks or beyond, and an early-term pregnancy is considered to be 37 weeks to 38 weeks and six days. According to the researchers, approximately 10 to 15 percent of all deliveries in the United States are performed before 39 completed weeks of gestation without a true medical indication for early delivery.
"Morbidity and mortality rates have increased in mothers and their babies that are born in the early-term period compared to babies born at 39 weeks or later," says Jani Jensen, M.D., obstetrician and lead author of the study. "There is a need to improve awareness about the risks associated with this."
The increased risks for newborns include morbidity, such as respiratory (breathing) difficulties, feeding difficulties and problems such as cerebral palsy although the overall risk is low. These morbidities can also lead to higher rates of admission to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
An elective early-term delivery requires a pregnant woman to be induced, which involves medication or procedures to help start labor. This can lead to a prolonged labor requiring deliveries with instruments such as forceps or a vacuum and may cause infection or hemorrhaging. There is also an increased risk of needing to have a cesarean delivery, and long term there could be more surgical complications for the mother. "It's not an entirely benign procedure that we are talking about," says Dr. Jensen.
Dr. Jensen sees a huge need to increase patient awareness and the public's perception about term pregnancy and when it is safe to deliver a baby. One research study that was reviewed included 650 women who recently delivered a baby. Half of the respondents believed that a full-term pregnancy occurred at 37 to 38 weeks of gestation and 25 percent thought it was safe to deliver a baby at 34 to 36 weeks.
Public awareness campaigns and health care providers can help raise awareness about the complications. Some hospitals have taken steps to decrease the rate of elective early-term deliveries, such as implementing a "hard-stop" policy that prohibits physicians from scheduling an elective induction before 39 weeks. Insurers and quality academies are also taking a close look at this practice. Some companies are refusing to pay for deliveries that are electively induced without a solid medical indication.

By DAVID IGNATIUS, Investor's Business Daily
David Ignatius
The Obama administration's approach toward North Korea has been described as "strategic patience." A more accurate evaluation of U.S. policy would be "failure."
The administration has alternately wooed and threatened North Korea for four years, with no discernible effect.
Here's what failure looks like: Since President Obama took office, Pyongyang has conducted several missile tests and two nuclear weapons tests, the most recent on Feb. 12. When the international community has tried to hold Pyongyang accountable, the regime has become even more erratic.
North Korea's latest reckless action came this week, when it nullified the 60-year-old armistice that ended the Korean War, and cut its hotline with U.S. forces in South Korea.
This was Pyongyang's way of protesting the U.N. Security Council's unanimous decision to impose new sanctions after last month's nuclear test.
Perhaps it was also a way of hazing South Korea's President Park Geun-hye, who took office two weeks ago.
What's next? Unfortunately, the only thing that's predictable about North Korea is its belligerence.
Pyongyang has taken violent actions in the first months after the election of each South Korean president since 1992, according to Victor Cha, a Korea expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
What happens when diplomacy fails? This is the most disturbing problem in international relations, and it's posed now by North Korea: How should the international community respond when a nation consistently ignores red lines? What policy options exist when patience finally runs out?
Tom Donilon, the national security adviser, had some newly tough words for Pyongyang in a speech Monday to the Asia Society. "The United States will not accept North Korea as a nuclear state; nor will we stand by while it seeks to develop a nuclear-armed missile that can target the United States."
But what does this mean? The North already is a nuclear state, and it is developing missiles that could strike the U.S. with miniaturized warheads.
"North Korea will have to change course," Donilon insisted.
Otherwise, it will face more sanctions and new U.S. defense moves aimed at countering a "grave threat to the United States and our allies." But what if North Korea doesn't bend?
One result will be more aggressive defense policies in South Korea and Japan, complicating security in Asia.
The North Korea problem is scary because its leadership seems to get more volatile over time. Kim Jong Eun, the new leader, "quickly consolidated power" after the death of his father, Kim Jong Il, in December 2011, according to U.S. intelligence.

Women Creating Change (WCC) draws together distinguished feminist scholars from across Columbia to focus on contemporary global problems affecting women and on women's roles in addressing those problems. At the heart of WCC are working groups – scholars, students, practitioners, and socially engaged artists (filmmakers, dramatists, photographers) who meet in New York and at Columbia's Global Centers with partners from across the world. Promoting networks of experts and activists that cross national and disciplinary borders, WCC envisions ethical and viable solutions to urgent problems concerning women, gender, and inequality. It also engages with other global networks and groups working to raise awareness of these problems, on campus and beyond, and is committed to the pursuit of social justice and a democratic future. WCC pursues research, teaching, writing and collaborative work that is necessarily interdisciplinary as well as comparative and transnational and that benefits from the rich resources and global perspective afforded by the Center for the Study of Social Difference (CSSD) and by Columbia University's Global Centers.
There are currently five Women Creating Change working groups: "Gender & the Global Slum," convened by Saidiya Hartman, Neferti Tadiar, and Anupama Rao; "Gender, Religion & Law in Muslim Societies," directed by Lila Abu-Lughod and Anupama Rao"; "Women Mobilizing Memory," headed by Marianne Hirsch and Jean Howard; "Re-thinking Vulnerability: Feminism & Social Change," led by Judith Butler; and "Social Rights After the Welfare State," directed by Alice Kessler-Harris.

Red Lobster, Olive Garden Testing Program Where Even Fewer Workers Are Full Time Due To ObamaCare
Who would have seen this coming? Legislation has consequences out in the Real World
(Washington Times) The owner of Olive Garden and Red Lobster restaurants is putting more workers on part-time status in a test aimed at limiting costs from President Obama's health care law.
Darden Restaurants Inc. declined to give details but said the test is in just four markets across the country. The move entails boosting the number of workers on part-time status, meaning they will work fewer than 30 hours a week.
Under the new health care law, companies with 50 or more workers could be hit with fines if they do not provide basic coverage for full-time workers and their dependents. Starting Jan. 1, 2014, those penalties and requirements could significantly boost labor costs for some companies, particularly in low-wage industries such as retail and hospitality, where most jobs don't come with health benefits.
Darden, which operates more than 2,000 restaurants in the United States and Canada, employs about 180,000 people. The company says about 75 percent of its employees are part-timers.
One might say that 25% is a small amount, but that still amounts to 45,000 full time workers, and by moving more and more to 30 hours or less the restaurant chains reduce their exposure to what is a burdensome law with tons of regulations, fines, and taxes, all of which will increase costs artificially. Other companies, such as McDonald's, are looking at the same thing, namely, increasing the number of part timers and reducing the number of full time workers. Which means less money in the pockets of workers thanks to Obama and the Democrats and their absurd legislation which can affect the entire economy, not just the 1/6th health care industry.
And let's not forget that it will drive up insurance premiums by around 30%.
And less one thinks that Darden Restaurants is some raving right wing group, the CEO and Chairman of the Board, Clarence Otis, Jr., has given $30,800 to DNC Services Corp, ie, the Democratic National Committee, as well as $2,500 each to Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Max Baucus, this election cycle. He also gave $2,500, it should be noted, to Mitch McConnell. And, while he did give $2,300 to John McCain during the 2008 cycle, he gave double that to Obama, and a raft of money to mostly Democrats, including $28,500 to the DNC in 2009.

Ratings & Reviews
Having Ginger Strader help us in our home search was outstanding due to her responsiveness to our needs and constantly communicating with us thruought the process made it easier than i imagined! The night when we were actually bidding on the home never felt stressful or complicated and Ginger kept close contact with me during the few hours to actually win the bid! Thank you Ginger for ALL your hard work and attention and information we needed at that time!!
Ginger not only found us several options with exactly the parameters we gave her, unlike other realtors we have dealt with in the past, but she helped me to purchase and close in only a week. She was informative and available when we needed her and she made sure that the other party knew what we wanted and that no time was wasted. She negotiated our purchase with excellent skills and was very timely and responsive to our requests and inquiries. I intend on using her in the future and even have already referred her to others that are looking to own their own house without a mortgage, just like we did.
She knows area really good. We never had a problem with process, buy and sell goes nice and smooth. She returns calls right away. She was always on time. Never complain even if it's taking long time to find the right home.

'Lake Summit'
Meeting will seek input regarding cleanliness, safety of Sunrise Lake
A community meeting for year-round and seasonal residents has been scheduled to discuss Sunrise Lake in Middleton. (JOHN QUINN/Union Leader Correspondent)
The first Sunrise Lake Summit will be held Aug. 31 from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. at the Old Town Hall along King's Highway.
"Sunrise Lake is a major resource to the Town of Middleton and we need to continue as a community to keep it as clean and safe for all. Although our lake is in pretty good shape we do have some issues that we need to address," Mullen wrote in an e-mail invitation.
Louise Bourdeau, who moved to South Carolina but summers on Fox Road, said she'd be interested in listening to how fellow property owners and visitors plan to protect the lake — especially cleaning up the diapers, empty bait containers and trash they found at the fishing site.
On Friday, she enjoyed watching her grandsons, Robert Mitchell, 6, and his brother, Matthew Savoie, 9, both of Farmington, fish along Route 153. They all had concerns about keeping the lake safe for all.
During town meeting in March, residents overwhelmingly agreed to add $10,000 to the fund to fight exotic weed growth while accepting $2,400 in grant money. This money paid to treat the water and for divers to remove invasive plants this summer.
After state Department of Environmental Services officials used global positioning systems to locate the "Milfoil hotspots" Monday, Mullen said divers will return to focus on those areas in the end of September.
Mullen said some residents are concerned about how some boaters operate dangerously or drive too fast around the shallow lake which is full of kayaks, swimmers and rocks.

alan cumming is brilliant on stage..bit confused how hes going to manage though!
With skill and the ability to put on a dress fast lol.
It will be a massive ammount of work but he is a very skilled actor.
For any actor to pull this off with credibility, Alan Cumming would be the one. An excellent actor in two powerful roles at the same time — this will be interesting.
So exciting to see the lgbtq theatre scene experiencing a revival. More on that below:

Matt Ryan Isn't Culprit Behind Rough Start for Atlanta Falcons
After making it to the NFC Championship Game last season, the Atlanta Falcons are far from having the same amount of success in the 2013 NFL season. Coming off of their bye in week six, the Falcons have a 1-4 record, are in third place in their division, and are well out of the playoff race as of right now.
Obviously the Falcons have some serious work to do if they want to live up to their preseason billing as one of the favorites in the conference. They have a favorable schedule coming off of their bye week, but they are going to have to play much better than they have, even without star wide receiver Julio Jones suiting up. However, quarterback Matt Ryan just needs to keep doing what he's doing.
Before last season when he led them to that NFC Championship game, Ryan was often criticized for not being able to make the big plays and lead his team. Through the Falcons first five games of this season, though, he has been one of the few bright spots and has been the catalyst to most of the little success that this team has found.
Ryan has completed a solid 69.3 percent of his passes this year, higher than his career average of 63.2 percent, and has accrued 1,649 passing yards for 10 touchdowns to only three interceptions. He certainly hasn't been dominant, but he's been consistent, which is saying a lot considering the situation that he's been dealing with this season.
For starters, the Falcons have struggled in the running game with Steven Jackson out. Without their running game, Ryan has been relied on heavily and has done a solid job in getting the job done. Secondly, he's been throwing to a depleted receiving core. Obviously having Jones for those first five weeks helped, but having a hobbled Roddy White is extremely detrimental to this Falcons offense and the fact that Ryan has been able to be productive with White contributing near-nothing is impressive.
Ryan may not be in the same mold as the Peyton Mannings and Tom Bradys of the NFL, but he's definitely in the upper-tier of quarterbacks in this league. If you want to blame the Falcons' struggles this far on something or someone, look to injuries or their defense, but don't even think about putting this on Ryan. He's been as good as you could ask with the hand that's been dealt to him.

The annual summit of Gulf Arab states will be held in Qatar in early December, not in Oman as previously planned, the secretary general of the Gulf Cooperation Council said on Monday. Qatar and its Gulf partners have accepted to a request by Oman that the GCC summit take place in Doha, on the understanding that Muscat will host the 2008 gathering, Abdulrahman al-Attiyah told AFP.
Sources close to the Omani government said Muscat had asked for the change because it is rebuilding infrastructure and facilities damaged by a June cyclone.
Oman has said the damage caused by Cyclone Gonu could rise to US$3.9 billion.
The venue of the annual end-of-year summit rotates among GCC member states and last year's meeting was hosted by Saudi Arabia.
