## Description

This MCP server provides clinical decision support for practitioners using the Counterstrain (Jones) technique. It allows AI agents to calculate precise positions of comfort, determine optimal hold durations, and plan re-assessment strategies based on tender point locations and patient data. Use `generate_protocol` to create a full treatment plan, `validate_poc_viability` to check anatomical logic, `calculate_hold_parameters` for timing, and `get_reassessment_strategy` for post-treatment evaluation.

## Tools

### calculate_hold_parameters
Calculates the precise duration and frequency of monitoring required for the hold phase

### generate_protocol
Generates a complete, step-by-step treatment protocol for a specific tender point

### get_reassessment_strategy
Determines how the practitioner should re-evaluate the patient after the treatment hold

### validate_poc_viability
Checks if a proposed Position of Comfort is anatomically logical

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Generate a treatment protocol for a tender point at the right trapezius, associated with the cervical spine, with a comfort level of 8.
```

**Response:** 
```
Protocol ID: CS-TRAP-001. Tender Point: Right Trapezius. Associated Joint: Cervical Spine. Position of Comfort: Lateral flexion to the left with slight rotation. Hold Duration: 90 seconds. Monitoring: Observe for muscle spindle relaxation. Re-assessment: Palpation comparison immediately after the hold.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is a flexion/rotation position viable for a tender point at the left iliopsoas?
```

**Response:** 
```
The proposed position is viable for the iliopsoas tender point to reduce muscle spindle tension.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What should I do after a 90-second hold if the patient stayed in position?
```

**Response:** 
```
Perform a palpation comparison to check for reduced sensitivity at the tender point to verify the neutralization of the dysfunction.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I generate a full treatment plan?**
You can use the `generate_protocol` tool by providing the tender point location, the associated joint, and the client's comfort level.

**Can I verify if a position is correct for a specific tender point?**
Yes, use the `validate_poc_viability` tool to check if a proposed position of comfort is anatomically logical for the given tender point and joint.

**How is the hold duration determined?**
The duration is calculated using `calculate_hold_parameters`, which takes into account the intensity of the dysfunction and the patient's age.
