Hello, all. I received an email from a reader regarding an article I wrote
in 2008 for *The O&P EDGE* on Sister Kenny, an Australian nurse who
developed a ground-breaking treatment for polio sufferers, many of whom are
now dealing with post-polio syndrome (PPS). The reader was being treated by
a practitioner of the Kenny method, including her massage technique, but
the practitioner is no longer living. He's having considerable difficulty
in finding someone else.
Does anyone know of any healthcare professionals in Queensland, Australia,
who still practice the Kenny method or some of her techniques, including
massage, or incorporate some of them in their treatment methods?

Regards,

Miki
