(The) total package in relation to shoulder/cervical (spine)."
	Mills Cooper, PT Town & Country Physical Therapy Austin, Texas

"I would never think to treat the shoulder this way for pain. I look back at some of my patients and think, "Wow, I could've done this to him/her. I appreciate all the research both in orthopedic medicine and learning theory that went into the content and made up the foundation of the course." ---Beth Kolbe, PT

"I appreciate the organized flow of information and thought. Great handouts and pictures and a good balance of theory and hands-on. Michael is a very knowledgeable and efffective instructor and clinician. His course is easy to follow, interesting, and highly applicable to direct patient care.  Thanks Michael ---great course!" ---Andrea K., PT

"Before coming to this course, I was often overwhelmed with shoulder pain and reluctantly relied on treating the symptoms instead of addressing the problem areas. (I now have) greater understanding of possible "causes" of shoulder parin and how to treat it appropriately. Impressive. Your knowledge about the shoulder was nicely broken down into various levels to help me grasp the joint and how to treat. Thank you."

Kristi Marks, PT

Thank you for putting you neck out there to teach style, philosophy, and more importantly, direction to practice. I think this shepherding at the end of the day will end up moving and impacting our profession forward ---to the work, the practice, and how we are valued by the public and medical community.   Thank you for your advocacy." ---Ed Brush, PT, ATC

	"Structure, structure, structure. (This course) provided me with a systematic approach to eval patients in general. But on a more personal note, it recharged my respect and pride of my profession. The exercises and options on manual treatment was very clever.
	Mark DeAnda, PT

"The repeated motion, cervical manip and documentation techniques were great new information. All in all  this was a great course. You make a lot of sense and present very well. I really like the small things---i.e. "fill in the blanks", which help keep clinician's focused. It is obvious you have put a great amount of time/effort into this course. Thank you and let me know about the knee course---I would take it." ---Cynthia Long, PT

"I like the patient management part of the course. These ideas are applicable for any patient type or problem.

(The) entire relationship of c-spine with shoulder problems was my "A-ha" moment. I think of all the patients I have "tried" to treat before and was unable to help.  If I would have had this info..." ---Andy Lair, PT

"I feel I can return to the clinic and put these techniques to work and help my patients and also have a systematic approach to evaluate the shoulder."

"I was thoroughly impressed with the organization and "process mapping" approach with this course. I feel that a huge impact will be made in patient outcomes with the techniques I now can put together.  My personal goals have been met and more (from this course) and I am anxious to apply my new system to everyday practice. Thank you for everything. ---Lacey Hardesty, PT
