I had been living with neck, shoulder, and arm pain for 20 years and honestly never thought to do something about it...until I heard about Shig’s amazing skills!! Shig was able to pinpoint the muscles and tendons causing the issues and was able to bring me incredible relieve and mobility in just one treatment 😃 Before our next treatment, I caused a new injury in the same area playing slo-pitch and he found it right away. He treated the original & new issues and I have never felt better...honestly! He combines treatment with exercises that I can easily do on my own. You are the best, Shig, and I am telling anyone who will listen what a skilled professional you are 😃 As I type this review I am still pain and discomfort free...for the first time in soooo many years.
