“I came in with ongoing neck and shoulder pain that kept coming back. What I appreciated most was the detailed assessment and how the treatment focused on correcting movement, not just relieving pain. The MSK approach made a real difference.”

The lymphatic drainage sessions were gentle and effective. I felt lighter and more comfortable, and the therapist explained how this fit into my overall recovery.
