The little bit of text on their website sounds like pseudo science to me. I
am a PT who has been working with postural problems for over 30 years, and
this stuff is nothing new. This Total Postural Reprogramming course might
be a -- shall we say gimmick? -- a possible ruse. Dr. Bricot may be
knowledgeable, but for $495? I would urge all potential attendees to be
cautious.

Colleagues:

The deadline for registration for the seminar Total Postural Reprogramming
is approaching. PCE credits have been applied for. This system will
revolutionize your practice and approach to Orthotics. Dr. Bernard Bricot,
an orthopedic surgeon, has trained over 5000 medical specialists in this
system. I have used it personally and on patients with remarkable success,
and highly recommend it to medical professionals. This course will give you
a new understanding of the role of the central nervous system in our stance
and gait. It will also train you in the correction of the same. The
Posture Center is looking for professionals and research centers to work on
research papers which will corroborate research already done in Europe,
Brazil, and Japan. As professionals we continually need new approaches and
services to help those referred to us as well as make up for what is being
eroded out from under us by insurances, stock and bills,etc.

The web site www.posturecenter.com is partially up. A registration form for
the first course in September is there and some background information. The
translation of published research papers is still ongoing and will be added
to the site when completed.
