I was a student at UCLA. I worked in an on-campus computer lab. One winter, I injured my right shoulder in mid-air while snowboarding.

STORIES OF SUCCESS
“I had developed wrist pain and found that if I moved my wrist a certain way it would POP and swell for at least a week. I went to my doctor who told me that my tendon was stretched and either to wear a brace everyday or if that did not work to have surgery. I wore the brace and one day Matt asked why I had on the brace. I told him and he had me relax and he looked at my posture and noticed the hurting wrist and arm was not aligned properly. He showed me some exercises to do and at best I was skeptical but I tried them and lo and behold my wrist once aligned properly with my body my wrist stopped hurting. I tell everyone about Matt and how he helped me. He is amazing. Everyone should see him.”
