Case Studies: Rotator Cuff Syndrome & Multiple Sclerosis
Dr Poney Chiang works through a Neuro-Meridian approach to rotator cuff syndrome and multiple sclerosis — the relevant neuroanatomy, targeting peripheral nerves, and case examples. Hosted by Dr Scott Ling. Presented live on 19 June 2022.
11:00 AM – 12:30 PM AEST
Is This Webinar For You?
This case-based session looked at the Neuro-Meridian approach to two very different presentations — rotator cuff syndrome and multiple sclerosis — examining the mechanisms behind neural stimulation and how neuroscience combines with classical channel theory.
Dr Poney Chiang worked through the relevant neuroanatomy for each, how the pathology of rotator cuff syndrome is isolated, and how peripheral nerves are targeted, illustrated with case examples drawn from video, photos, and dissection material.
The webinar was conducted in English and included a live Q&A.
What This Webinar Covered
Mechanisms of Neural Stimulation
The thinking behind neural stimulation in a Neuro-Meridian approach, combining neuroscience with channel theory.
Isolating Rotator Cuff Pathology
How the pathology of rotator cuff syndrome is identified and isolated.
A Neuro-Meridian View of MS
How a Neuro-Meridian approach is considered in multiple sclerosis presentations.
The Relevant Neuroanatomy
The neuroanatomy underpinning both rotator cuff and MS presentations.
Targeting Peripheral Nerves
How peripheral nerves are targeted, illustrated with video, photos, and dissection material.
Live Q&A with Dr Chiang
An open session to explore the cases and clinical reasoning.
Meet the Teacher & Host
