Fascial Distortion Model

Dr. Stephen Typaldos, D.O. proposed the Fascial Distortion Model.  Dr. Typaldos based his theory on the concept that all musculoskeletal complaints can be traced back to three-dimensional deformations or distortions of the fasciae.  His diagnosis uses patient language, gestures and symptomatology. The concept is that these distortions can be undone through direct application of a variety of manual techniques.  His techniques and application are presented in detail.
