Master methods like positional release, myofascial therapy, and ischemic compression to not only alleviate pain but address the underlying neuromuscular dysfunction, so your patients feel better and stay that way longer. Say goodbye to repeat treatments for the same issues and hello to happy clients who become raving fans!
