Case Study: Resolving Arm Burning and Neck Tightness in a Long-Distance Runner
A long-distance runner developed burning arm pain and neck tightness that worsened with running. This case study explores how a whole-body Fascial Counterstrain approach — from first rib mechanics to old scars and coccyx tension — helped calm their symptoms and keep them moving.
Case Study: Rapid Improvement in Post-Fall Knee Pain Through Fascial Counterstrain
Knee pain after a fall doesn’t always mean the knee itself is the problem. In this case study, a patient with severe swelling and limited knee movement made remarkable progress after a Fascial Counterstrain session — without any direct knee manipulation. By treating hidden restrictions in the abdomen, diaphragm, and lymphatic system, their knee mobility improved from 90° to 135° in just one visit.
Case Study: Restoring Two Years of Lost Shoulder Movement — By Treating the Nervous System
A dancer came in for a simple leg injury — but the real story unfolded in their shoulder. After two years of restricted movement and no success with stretching, Fascial Counterstrain revealed deeper dural and nerve tension patterns. One session restored their full shoulder circumduction. Here’s how treating the root cause, not the symptoms, transformed their movement.
Case Study: Immediate Improvement in Leg Mobility After Treating an Old Hernia Scar
An old hernia scar can restrict movement deep within the body. This case study explores how restoring structural balance with Fascial Counterstrain led to immediate improvements in leg mobility and comfort.
Unexpected Relief: How Treating a Calf Led to Freedom of the Mid-Back
A long-distance runner came in for calf tightness — but the real source of his problem wasn’t in the leg at all. Through Fascial Counterstrain, we uncovered deep fascial and neural connections linking his calf to long-standing mid-back stiffness that had troubled him for over two decades. This case reveals how addressing the root cause can bring lasting relief, even when the pain appears far from its origin.
Case Study: Resolving Left Shoulder and Neck Soreness Through Fascial Counterstrain
