Hi Tish, I have also been told this would be a treatment that will relieve my pain. I was skeptical due to the fact that the doctor that informed me about this was not a good doctor, or a good person. But, I have read quite a bit ont he subject, and if you can tolerate being stretched and pushed on , it might be for you. I think, in my opinion, that anything is worth a try a few times if it is not too painful. good luck, em
