Positioning gives pain-free movement
"I had done it all and nothing was working. Doctors out of despair referred me to Meg. I started getting better immediately. I got my own set of equipment and could work out at home and not antagonize my back. It didn't take long to re-develop muscles in a way that was totally foreign to me; no weights, no strain, no 'no pain, no gain'."

"I spent 5 months searching for relief from muscle spasms and sciatica. I would get some temporary relief but nothing that lasted and helped me to learn how to remain pain free. Meg taught me the tools to retrain/reeducate my muscles to get out and stay out of spasm and pain. "
