Kenny Method Faces Debate In Polio Treatment
In Washington June 22 Sister Elizabeth Kenny, aging Australian nurse, argues her hot-pack and muscle retraining method for polio. Doctors differ, noting pre 1940 casts and splints overused, while National Foundation claims broad influence and training funds. Both sides agree the theory behind treatment matters, yet no direct statistics compare Kenny to modified methods.

Kenny Institute Training Path Confuses Washington Doctor
A Washington pediatrician reported that Kenny Institute workers took months to qualify and a planned Kenny project was halted when Sister Kenny visited. He estimated six to eight years of study, yet saw merit in the method and used it to retrain muscles with emphasis on individual muscles rather than groups. A therapist trained under Sister Kenny echoed the method's focus on detailed muscle training.
