| Greetings!
Welcome to the March newsletter! As mentioned last month, we want to bring to you graduate Fellows of Applied Functional Science. We thought it would be a great idea to share how they apply the unifying principles of function into strategies that lead to techniques.
As we teach in Applied Functional Science, a technique should be derived from principles. Principles that are absolute, universal, proven, unarguable - principles that are governed by nature. In fact, principles should be a professional's anchor to navigating the complex human body. This month we are proud to share an article titled the "Sling Matrix" accompanied by a video developed by Andrea Wasylow PT, FAFS. You're going to see a unique way of applying principles. We hope this spawns more creativity in you! Be confident; by anchoring to principles the unknowns will become your known. We hope you enjoy.
If you have any questions pertaining to the practical applications section this month please email your questions to Lenny Parracino at lparracino@gmail.com.
Thank you, we look forward to hearing from you.

| Practical Application
We have two gifts for you this month. Our GIFT fellow/facilitator Andrea Wasylow has created an article about a patient in a sling. With the article is a corresponding video.
We know every cell, organ, and tissue in the human body is designed to move. Even when injured, movement is critical! If one part is "bound-down" it behooves us not to allow the rest of the body to follow suit. In fact, getting the body to move an injury (although respecting the injury) can be a key to healing injured tissues.
We must not forget we are parts that make up the whole and the whole should be viewed as primary. Andrea does a brilliant job sharing these techniques.
Special thanks to Andrea!!

Questions and Answers
1) I thought the article this month "Sling
Matrix" was great but what principles were used to create such a strategy? Can these principles be used for other injuries or just the shoulder?
2) When do I know the patient is ready for
such a "Sling Matrix"? After the sling is off, what do I do?
