Myofascial pain is the most common pain; it is estimated that 6070 per cent of all pain is of myofascial origin. There are many common diagnoses such as sciatica, lumbago, tendinitis, arthrosis, bursitis, tennis elbow, and frozen shoulder that have a myofascial origin. They are not life threatening, but they abate the quality of life and reduce functional capacity, creating stress and depression. They are also a big sanitary cost and cause for early retirement. There is a regrettable lack of knowledge surrounding myofascial pain and the existing possibilities to cure. With this manual, I try to spread my long experience in treating and curing these pains with my combination method. For the manual techniques, videos are included on the companion DVD to make the study easier.
