Dr. Brown's recent international travel schedule has been busy having taught seminars in Argentina, Peru and Japan during the past year.  A trip to Japan in the fall was both academic and unique as the Brown's were accompanied by Dr. and Mrs. Joe Strauss, of Levittown, Pennsylvania and Dr. Perry Rush of Inman, SC.  The seminar held in Tokyo, Japan was presented to more than 80 Japanese doctors. 

The seminar consisted of chiropractic technique, principles and practice, as well as the philosophy and history of chiropractic.  Dr. Perry Rush taught a section on Blair Technique, a precise upper cervical method.  Dr. Joe Strauss, a prominent author and teacher of chiropractic philosophy presented a workshop on evolving the philosophic tenets of the profession.  Dr. Brown's presentations were about the philosophy and history of the chiropractic profession.

As the seminar weekend drew to a close our hosts took us on a relaxing trip to their summer home near Mt. Fuji, pictured in the background.

Dr. Brown had lectured in Japan on several occasions previously, but generally he just teaches his program and returns home immediately.  This time was special as he and Charlene and their friends scheduled several extra days to relax and see some of Japan.
