Lorena,this is the "hot" alternative treatment in sports medicine.Many pro athletes swear by it.It purports to break up adheshions that are impeding normal muscle functioning by means of deep tissue manipulation.Judging by the hundreds of photos autographed by famous football,hockey,swimming,skating,dancing ,and especially running notables on the wall in my practioners office,I would say that it benefits many people.I have had 3 treatments and he started me walking,then jogging(5 then 10 mins.)a day.Yesterday I did the walk-jog and my foot(high-arch,no heel or morning pain) tingled and throbbed and drove me insane all day.)Today it is ok again,but I am very leery of jogging again.I can't really say if the treatment is helping me.I am iceing frequently and wear OTC arch cushions from my podiatrist.I do not find the treatment painful,but Suzi could not tolerate it..
