About Email
- If you email me and I decide to answer you, I will post it on The View. The whole point of The View is to share information that will help people. I will remove any personal identifying information and will not share your name, email address, or anything else about you (unless you tell me I can).
Legal Stuff
- READ THISI am not your therapist and cannot give you specific advice. Please call your board-certified physical therapist (you can get a list of therapists from http://www.apta.org). Client stories are based on true events and, unless I have permission to use names, I have changed any personal identifying information. Resemblance to any person alive or dead is purely coincidental. Believe me, it's not all about you. However, if you are my friends or family members, you'll likely show up in my stories. I express my opinions, freely. They may not match yours - that's ok.

- 7. To heal the pain you have, you must face the pain you have.
- 8. The first signs of a joint in trouble are stiffness and tightness.
- 9. Massage, Rolfing, Mobilization, Maunal therapy are all the same. It's the frequency, intensity and duration of the technique that differs.
