Are you a planner/organizer? I’ve learned how to be “that girl” over the years out of pure necessity. Having 9 kids FORCED me to learn organization skills. Consequently, I am a list maker. I’ve even been known to file my holiday lists away on my computer so that I can... Read more
So, I have an interesting case study to share. Let me first pose this question: Will the graph change if a person is bitten by a Hobo Spider? Yes–the graph will ABSOLUTELY change because of a venomous spider bite, and by all means it should! Not only did the graph... Read more
Here are some questions that I get from practitioners on a regular basis: Is there a best sequence for treating pain? Do you graph EVERY patient? Do you graph patients who are just coming in for back pain? What if they just have shoulder pain, do you graph them? How... Read more
In my last blog, I told you about a woman who came in complaining of excruciating pain after having surgery to remove anal fissures. If you missed it, click on the link below so you will be up to date before we begin analyzing her graph. Giving Birth to a... Read more
A patient came to see me who recently had surgery for chronic fissures. She came to my office in desperation. Each bowel movement took at least an hour, with very little results–and each bowel experience led to 16 hours of excruciating pain. She described her rectal pain as “WORSE than... Read more
I have boxes and boxes of notes from college–not to mention all of the continuing education notebooks I’ve accumulated after graduation.

Eastern Canada is having their first Asian Integrative Medicine Symposium in Toronto—and Miridia Technology is excited to be an exhibitor. We want to support the team over at Asian Integrative Medicine, Inc. They have put a lot... Read more
As many of you know, a couple of weeks ago, Alan and I were in Florida for the FSOMA conference. We met some really great practitioners. I would like to introduce you to two Florida practitioners. One already owned the AcuGraph and the second had been ‘stalking us’ on the... Read more
I was talking with a friend recently, and he asked me if Acupuncture can help with Weight loss. I assured him that it certainly can, and then asked why he wanted to know. He said, “The Weight Loss topic occupies 4 of the top 10 Google searches! It’s a hot topic and... Read more
I’m sure many of you are into social networking. Did you know Miridia Technology has a Facebook page? Of course we do, because we are THE technology company for acupuncturists–and we love to communicate with our practitioners through modern technology! I love that I get paid to “socialize” and become... Read more
Do you get referrals from chiropractors? If not, then you are missing out on a valuable referral source. I actually get quite a few each month. This may sound surprising, but I really do. Most chiropractors are obviously capable of taking care of musculoskeletal pain conditions on their own, so... Read more
Have you been following our series on the Triple Energizer? Honestly, after Graph Analysis #5, I thought I was done with this subject–but I was WRONG. I just had to continue the Triple Energizer discussion after my patient came in this week with a graph that looked so amazing. This... Read more
