A MESSAGE FROM ROBYN MIDGLEY


Hi there

 

When people often ask me, what is the most profound thing you have learnt and implemented to take your practice to new heights and achieve outstanding results for your patients, I always say the power of understanding the secret to unlocking digital stiffness.  I am privileged and honoured to call Shrikant Chinchalkar a friend and have watched his work for well over 10 years.

We only met in person in Berlin this year and immediately connected with our passion for learning, teaching and striving for excellence in our clinical practice. Shrikant’s teaching is truly life changing for therapists and patients and his knowledge greatly assists them to make the right decisions for their patients and achieve results. He recently received a lifetime achievement award in recognition and gratitude for his many contributions to the field of Hand Therapy.

 

I thank Shrikant for inviting me into his community to share my knowledge and skills with you and raise awareness on how to treat the stiff hand using the CMMS technique and extend a once-off opportunity to you.

 

I really encourage you to attend this event and look forward to sharing this experience with you because the CMMS technique is the most powerful strategy for success and regaining function there is.

 

See you there,

 

Robyn Midgley
