Quotes
“Since we know that fascia is so well integrated, we understand that it can be a clear pain generator.” [4:16]
“The area of the symptom is not the origin of the problem. It is just the area where the poor biomechanics manifests. [13:05]
“The body is able to heal a small tear if the joint works in a proper way. If it’s not working in the proper way, it will never heal. So we want to restore biomechanics.” [33:15]
