Burke shares cases demonstrating rapid changes in pediatric spasticity and dystonia, including a non-verbal child with basal ganglia injury whose arm tone relaxed within seconds after running basal ganglia frequencies, with improved comfort, wheelchair positioning, and reduced seizures using concussion protocols. They emphasize that FSM outcomes depend on practitioner assessment, manual mobilization (especially with scarring frequency 13), patient consent/participation, and careful listening to patient language. They also cover course announcements, upcoming research planning for childhood anxiety, publishing considerations, and Q&A on spina bifida, club foot, metal hardware safety, cranial nerves, hemorrhage frequency 18, and "desert island" favorite channels.</p> <p dir="ltr">00:00 Costa Rica Rehab Teaser</p> <p dir="ltr">00:56 Webinar Welcome Updates</p> <p dir="ltr">03:34 Meet Dr Dave Burke</p> <p dir="ltr">04:44 How Burke Found FSM</p> <p dir="ltr">09:33 First Big Pediatric Win</p> <p dir="ltr">14:03 Adjunct Therapy Mindset</p> <p dir="ltr">16:57 Grounding Palpation Skills</p> <p dir="ltr">19:52 Patient Buy-In Matters</p> <p dir="ltr">22:30 Q&A Spina Bifida Update</p> <p dir="ltr">24:20 Clubfoot Scarring Protocols</p> <p dir="ltr">25:53 Vitality Frequency Insights</p> <p dir="ltr">26:53 Rethinking Why It Works</p> <p dir="ltr">27:53 Fat Pad Insights</p> <p dir="ltr">29:25 Publishing FSM Case Reports</p> <p dir="ltr">30:20 CHARGE Syndrome Brain Support</p> <p dir="ltr">31:15 Metal Implants Safety</p> <p dir="ltr">32:47 Cranial Nerve Frequency Play</p> <p dir="ltr">34:29 Vitality Versus Secretions</p> <p dir="ltr">35:38 Scleroderma Rehab Breakthrough</p> <p dir="ltr">37:43 Let Patients Guide Frequencies</p> <p dir="ltr">41:40 Chronic Stroke Bleed Signature</p> <p dir="ltr">47:23 Desert Island Frequency Picks</p> <p dir="ltr">50:48 Wrap Up And Disclaimer</p> <p> </p>

They share a detailed case of a post-surgical patient with severe abdominal pain, mesh, extensive scarring, nausea, and restless legs whose pain dropped to zero after a long FSM session focused on vagus-related scarring, secretions, and trauma/central sensitization (including 40/89), highlighting that the device isn't "magic" but depends on assessment and correct targets. They stress the importance of patient buy-in, objective measures, and deeper diagnosis (muscles often inhibited, not weak), including examples of scar-related nerve/artery inhibition. They also answer questions on using FSM for common cold protocols and addressing appetite loss with spinal compression fractures via vagus/sympathetic considerations plus vitamin D and bone support.</p> <p dir="ltr">#FrequencySpecificMicrocurrent #FSM #VagusNerve #ScarTissue #ChronicPain #PainManagement #Microcurrent #Fascia #Hypermobility #EhlersDanlos #POTS #Inhibition #MuscleInhibition #Rehab #Physiotherapy #Chiropractic #FunctionalMedicine #IntegrativeMedicine #PainRelief #NervePain #CentralSensitization #CompressionFracture #Adhesions #ContinuingEducation #FrequencySpecificSeminars</p> <p> </p>

They describe using frequencies such as 40/89 to reduce fear/panic and alter pain processing, noting observable changes like slower speech, lower voice pitch, relaxed posture, and improved balance and gait. They share clinical examples including concussion/vagus protocols, athletes with strong pain-suppression, fibromyalgia-related pain center changes, and cases where prolonged 40/89 increased pain and was reversed with 81/89. The conversation also covers catastrophizing language as a response to not being believed, practical treatment programming (short vs. long, daytime vs. nighttime with converters), Ehlers-Danlos with MCAS and vagal dysfunction, digestive issues tied to low stomach acid and long-term acid blockers, and brief Q&A on electrodes, diaphragm frequencies, liver enzymes, and urgent high heart rate.</p>
