Pittsburgh Seminar Wrap Up

The seminar this weekend, from my perspective seemed like a success.  It was a good opportunity for me to finally meet the people whose faces I was familiar with from the pictures in our marketing materials and whose voices I was familiar with from so many phone calls. 

Christian started the conference with the announcement of our new generation of PulStars, the PulStar G3!  This new system is smaller and more portable than previous versions and consequently more affordable.  This new system is $1,000 less than the previous generation and will be equipped with a new impulse head that offers more of a "pistol grip" handle.  Along with being more balanced and lining up more properly with the forearm of the user, the new impulse head will have additional buttons that will allow a doctor to control all the functions of the PulStar so she never has to leave the patient.  

Speaking of the previous models, Christian also announced that we have an inventory of the G2 models which will be sold at a steep discount to make room for the new generation.  A couple of the doctors in attendance expressed interest in these systems so I imagine they will go quickly.  If your doctor has considered a PulStar (even if he hasn't), make sure he knows not to miss this opportunity.

Dr. Evans then took some time to outline the evolution of the PulStar from inception to the G3.  It is stunning how much has changed and improved since Dr. Evans decided to try and add technology to the field of chiropractic.  Dr. Jennifer Westcott, one of our trainers and contributors to PulStar's ongoing development, went through basic protocols.  She made it clear to everyone that these basic protocols are effective in relieving most issues patients have.  Finally, Dr. Dan Collins, our lead trainer and researcher, went through advanced protocols and adjusted everyone in the room.  Even veteran PulStar users learned something new from Dr. Collins' presentation.  Saturday was a long day and we covered a lot of information, don't let these 6 sentences fool you.

Sunday was a shorter day which started with Dr. Collins' lecture on extremities.  Dr. Stephen Savoie, our documentation and compliance expert, talked about the soft tissue work he does and some new attachments he is learning to use for this purpose.  The balance of the day was spent on advanced protocols and some hands on training of the attendees.

Judging by the involvement of and interaction among the attendees, I think they all enjoyed the seminar as well.  Hopefully I will be in touch with those that attendee and I'll get to hear first hand how much their patients benefitted from the lessons learned at the seminar.  Rest assured that I'll be sharing that info when I get it.
