Dr. Johnston uses many different techniques, some of which are uniquely designed for specific problems.
Trigger point therapy is a hands-on bodywork technique used to relieve tension and pain by releasing and lengthening both muscles and fascia.
The practitioner applies a steady light force to designated "trigger points" along a muscle group(s).
This promotes flexibility, balance and relaxation.
This technique is especially effective for relieving stiff neck, chronic headaches, plantar fasciitis and backache.
