Treatment Plans

A directory of common aches and pains, injuries, recovery needs and self-care techniques: how I approach each one, and what a typical course of sessions looks like.

Each treatment plan explains the condition or service in plain language, how I work with it, a typical course of sessions and, where it matters, when to see your doctor first. It isn't a diagnosis.

How to use it

  • Search: tap the magnifying glass and type a word, like “knee” or “sciatica”.
  • Shrink folds the bar away while you scroll. Tap a plan to read it.
