A client came to me with back pain and sciatica, but when she lay on the treatment couch, I immediately noticed a twist through her body. Many therapists would focus on the lower back—but deep assessment told me otherwise.
✅ The real issue? Her neck and jaw!By working on these areas, her body naturally realigned, and her symptoms resolved.
This is the power of assessment-led treatment—it’s not about chasing pain, but finding and correcting the true source of dysfunction.

A client came to me with neck and lower back pain, but my assessment told me the problem wasn’t in either of those areas—it was in the diaphragm!
✅ Why? The diaphragm plays a huge role in posture and stability. Restrictions here can create tension patterns that lead to pain elsewhere—often far from where the real issue is.
By working on the diaphragm, her body realigned naturally, and both her neck and lower back pain disappeared—without even touching those areas directly!
💡 This is why deep assessment is essential. Pain isn’t always where the problem is, and without a proper system, therapists often chase symptoms instead of fixing the cause.
