Treating someone in The Marshes shopping centre last Sunday. She had fallen and twisted her knee which consequently sometimes locked and sometimes gave way underneath her. A quick examination revealed that the cartilage was caught and protruding out of the knee joint. In this case it took no more than a minute to get the cartilage back in place and resolve her knee issues entirely.

A single 2 hour treatment or 3 one hour treatments with FSM before the blisters appear stops the disease in it's tracks - no rash,no blisters, no pain.

FSM is a very versatile treatment which can treat a wide range of ailments. For example, it is very effective in the treatment of concussion which can commonly occur in a car crash or other RTA. Concussion also occurs quite often following a blow to the head in many sporting events such as field sports and, of course, boxing.

FSM is extremely effective in breaking up the adhesions and scar tissue found in old injuries. Most treatments use movement and pressure to break up scar tissue, which can be quite painful. FSM softens scar tissue, enabling the therapist to break it up easily. Consequently a greater amount of scar tissue can be broken up per session than with other therapies, helping to restore movement and functionality.

Faster recovery from new injuries - With soft tissue injuries the usual advice is to wait 48hrs before seeing a therapist. With FSM treatment sooner is better. Treatment within 24hrs of the injury occurring can stop the bleeding & reduce inflammation, reduce the amount of pain & bruising involved and lead to shorter recovey times. Best results are achieved if treatment is within 4hrs of the injury occurring.
