Welcome to Typaldos Publishing.  We provide resources that help doctors learn the FDM and practice TMT.

Here you can order an
FDM textbook, register for our upcoming TMT seminar, and soon join our professional web forum.  The e-commerce store is now operational, as well as the web-based seminar registration form.  Our forum should be online within a few days.  It will be free of charge but restricted to licensed practitioners.

Another resource is a referral system. Doctors who use FDM and TMT are encouraged to submit to us their names and contact information. And we will refer patients to the nearest doctors on our list, geographically. Once fully compiled, we will also post the list online, possibly with a geographic search interface.

 
In addition to doctors agreeing to take referrals, there can also be three more categories, in increasing order of supposed qualification: doctors who have taken a seminar, doctors who are certified TMT practitioners, and doctors serving in one of our contemplated in-house clinics. That being said, we would like to hear from doctors – preferably chiropractors – who might be interested in working in what will be called Triggerbands Clinics. Later, probably after the October seminar, we will begin actively recruiting.
 
The unfortunately weak system of FDM practitioners in the United States has spawned the need for an effective mentoring program. Doctors who attend the seminar can move toward certification, and mentor new TMT practitioners in week-long rotations. Our October seminar will probably be the only one of its kind, as it is intended to mark the beginning of a mentoring program. The seminar therefore embodies more of an ongoing relationship than a one-time event. Contrary to expectations, experience shows that this method cannot be taught solely in a three-day seminar, no matter the format. Learning the FDM and TMT is more like doing a second residency or going back to school. But your efforts will indeed be richly rewarded.
