Dear Listserved,

Attached is the first installment of the Feel Real YouTube proposed educational video series. This video series is designed to convey in a jargon-free format the role applied rehabilitation science (neural, biomechanical and clinical O&P) plays in assisting O&P clients maintain or regain a sense of wholeness and normality when using an O&P device. Aside from the inherent psychological and aesthetic benefits, normalization of sensory perception skills goes hand in hand with normalizing body imagery skills, and the interaction of these skills is absoutely essential in the acquisition of sensorimotor or control and manipulation skills. I have been remiss in excluding the contributions of medicine and medical specialties such as PT, OT and PM&R as well as developmental and clinical psychology from this series. However, we are in the planning stage for a second series that will include their invaluable and indispensable contribution.

A 6500 word theoretical paper on which this educational series is based is available on line and can be obtained at www.dycormfg.com or you can request this paper by emailing <Email Address Redacted> I encourage your comments, perspectives and questions, and with permission, will bring them to the attention of our viewers in subsequent segments.

I would like to thank the OandP listserver for making the presentation of this video series possible, and I hope you find this area of physical rehabilitation science fascinating as well as practical and useful.

Sincerely,

Michael, Wilson CPO, FAAOP
