    “Acupuncturist completely blown away…”

    From a Chiropractic Physician: “Patient presents with pain in the medial aspect of the fourth finger after playing guitar. Pain reported to be exacerbated by finger flexion and extension. DTM to the inter-metacarpal region significantly reduced finger pain with flexion and extension. Mulligan-like mobilization to the 4th DIP reduced the remainder of the finger flexion/extension pain. Pending results with guitar playing…This patient is an Acupuncturist and was completely blown away by how much his pain was reduced with DTM to the inter-metacarpal region.”

    “Patient started laughing and couldn’t believe it!”

    Chiropractic Physician says-“49 year old male, suffered fall c3/4 herniation, c6/7 herniation, with bulges all other levels and chronic neck pain and radiculitis to left hand. Cleaned up all the pain and constant radicular symptoms with traction and MDT. Still getting intermittent shooting pain down the hand with forward head flexion, protraction and reaching with left arm (think bending forward while seated to tie a shoe).
    Used DTM on the left shoulder and cervical spine while going through that reaching motion and all symptoms abolished. Patient started laughing and couldn’t believe it.”
