I have had two hip replacement surgeries as well as a back surgery. Astym therapy had made a huge difference in walking, I don't limp anymore and have vitality in my stride. Amanda has worked with me on regaining my balance and strength. I feel like...

I had been suffering from tennis elbow for about 8 months. I tried using the the tennis elbow band you put around your arm which usually works for me but it wouldn't even touch it. I am a firefighter and work construction part time so...
