Friedreich Ataxia
Secondary mechanical factors causing spinal and/or extremity stress effecting the coordination and balance has been our focus in work with Friedreich ataxia.  Analysis and corrective work to increase joint flexibility is combined with retraining to decrease alignment related stresses that are contributing to the overall symptomatic condition. 

Note: All cases involved cross applications of biomechanical analysis, correction and retraining methods that were originally developed to enhance joint range of motion, flexibility and performance of the elite dancer and international athlete. We seek the participation and involvement of the medical community with both the assessment of potential cases that may benefit from our research as well as active participation throughout the course of consultations.
