Benefits:
What is it?
Rather than a general stretch, each level of the spine is individually separated by hand, taking pressure off the nerves and helping rehydrate the discs between the vertebrae. Because the technique targets specific levels rather than the whole spine at once, the results are precise rather than one-size-fits-all.

Anyone with pinched nerves, disc-related pain, or stiffness radiating into the arms or legs, including those whose desk job has left them hunched, achy, and stiff.
