Further Functional Gains Possible with Jera Ratliff, PT On Our Team

Little did we know when we moved our offices to 4275 Executive Square, Suite 200 in La Jolla, CA that we would be settling in next door to an amazing Physical Therapist who specializes in functional manual therapy.  Meet Jera Ratliff

Jera is a 30-year practitioner of physical therapy and she has a steadfast truth she lives by - "to treat every person separately and distinctly as an individual and to provide the BEST and most comprehensive therapy available." 

Peter and Jera have spent a lot of time getting to know each other's work and are confident that collaborating will help them help their clients get the results they strive to achieve.


Jera is a graduate of the prestigious physical therapy program at The Ohio State University and yes, she is a Buckeye's fan.  She has completed thousands of hours of intense training beyond that as she earned her certification in Functional Manual Therapy® through The Institute of Physical Art (www.instituteofphysicalart.com).  

Jera has shared with us that it is this fully integrated approach that is the base of her treatment skills.  Teaching with the IPA to other PT's since 2001 she stays engaged with other top therapists and mentors across the country who collaborate and constantly push to achieve the next level of excellence. 

What we like about Jera is that she is a life-long learner!  In 2008 she undertook formal study with the Barral Institute (www.barralinstitute.com) and added the tools of advanced visceral manipulation and neuro-menigeal treatment to her skill set.  And she is currently studying treatment of the brain with Bruno Chickly, MD, DO (www.chicklyinstitute.org). 

Knowing that the body can heal itself and wanting always to provide the BEST in care available keeps her open and learning, building her skills and knowledge base and driving her dynamic therapeutic approach. Jera's clients get real solutions to healing and getting back to their lives.

We are delighted to introduce the power of SCENAR to her and to collaborate together here in La Jolla!

Dr. Lathrop Just Released A Revolutionary Two-Volume Set on Modern Electromedicine

Over the course of a long and prolific career, Dr. Peter Lathrop has always pushed forward to understand the intersection of science, medicine, and technology.  He has always been willing to embrace new technologies like the SCENAR, even when the traditional medical establishment was slow to catch on.

 After 35 years furthering the technology development and clinical use of FDA cleared electro-therapeutic devices as a neurophysiologist in San Diego, Dr. Lathrop has compiled his knowledge and treatment protocols into a fascinating and informative two-volume set of books, Modern Electromedicine Vol 1 and Modern Electromedicine Volume 2.

Together, these two books provide a deep and revolutionary exploration of the field of electromedicine and the use of electrotherapy technology to stop pain and speed up the healing of neuromuscular injuries.  The first volume of the book focuses on the underlying principles of neurophysiology, and cell function and dysfunction.  It serves as a great foundation for anyone who is relatively new to the field of electromedicine or who would like a refresher on the fundamentals. 

Holistic practitioners who are interested in utilizing the lessons of electromedicine to affect rapid and efficient healing will find a comprehensive exploration of Dr. Lathrop's work and results in Volume 2.  In this volume, Dr. Lathrop details the implementation and techniques used in diagnosis and treatment of injuries using electrotherapy, including FDA cleared electronic medical devices like the SCENAR.

If you are a use of the SCENAR, you must pick up Modern Electromedicine, Volume Two.  Dr. Lathrop was among the first health professionals to recognize the utility of the SCENAR in the United Stats and has been successfully using it for over nine years.  Throughout that time, he has developed a reputation as a preeminent SCENAR expert, and he shared that expertise throughout these two volumes.

Together these two books can serve as a crucial resource to any practitioner who helps patients manage and eliminate pain, including chiropractors, physical therapists, acupuncturists, massage therapists, and others.  Each volume is also filled with beautiful and striking images that can make these volumes function as great coffee table books for your practice.

Both books are now available for sale through Amazon.com and CreateSpace.  They can also be ordered through local bookstores, university bookstores and libraries.  By your copy of Modern Electromedicine Volume 1 and Modern Electromedicine Volume 2 today.

We Joined the Evolution at the California Chiropractic Assocation Annual Meeting

 Impactful Two Day Event in San Diego!

We at The Neuroadaptive Institute/SCENAR Experts were pleased and proud to co-sponsor Radio Jack's radio broadcast at the California Chiropractic Association's Annual Conference here in sunny San Diego this past weekend!

Thank you to the California Chiropractic Association (CCA) for co-sponsoring the broadcast.

What a wonderful opportunity to meet passionate, committed healers all pursuing more knowledge and skill to guide their patients toward well-being and optimized health.



Over the course of two days we met many chiropractors and had the pleasure of 20+ practice leaders.
All of the interviews will be available for listening on a select page at wsRadio.com.  As well, each chiropractor will be able to use their interviews in their marketing efforts to educate the public about chiropractic and their practice.

We announced the recent publication of our founder's new textbooks, Modern Electromedicine Vol 1 & 2 and did a drawing so several chiropractors could receive volumes of the book as a gift and momento from the conference.

We are pleased to announce the winners of the Modern Electromedicine books:
  • Dr. William and Claudette Satnick of San Diego, CA
  • Dr. Jeffrey Johnson of Walnut Creek, CA
Congratulations!
