Yes, but you also have homework after the treatments. A treatment plan for deep tissue massage

,which consist of a hour session twice a week for 8 weeks is in order. A Orthopedic stretching and Isometrics

program is proposed with heat treatment applied during session and on your own at home(homework).

I have worked on several clients with restorative results. Changing muscle memory and stretches for SITS,

Pects,Triceps and Traps must be worked to reduce Hypertonicity,

is the goal.             Mahalo , Glenn Alvarez LMT
