Michael is actually a magician… I don’t know what wizardry he possesses but he is amazing. One visit and I am feeling 95% better than when I hobbled in to his clinic. Lower back pain eased drastically and am able to lift my left leg again and can now drive my manual car to put the clutch in!! Thank you so much you have really worked your magic!!!

I had Dan work on my jaw with TMJ technique which released built up tension in my jaw. Dan is knowledgeable and professional and worked wonders for me. I’d 100% recommend Northern Myotherapy after my positive experience.

Dan is an absolute magician. His dry needling/cupping and massage has always been so beneficial to release any muscle tension and pain Ive had especially in my neck, back and glutes. I have recommended Dan to multiple people and will 110% keep doing so!
