5.0 out of 5 starsBuh-bye, Crutches!
By Lily Coyle on June 23, 2014
Format: Perfect Paperback
This is the first book review I've ever written. I work at a small Minnesota publishing company and I know so many authors that it's personally awkward, not to mention a conflict of interest, to review books. I'm making an exception on this one. A few months ago my company published Dr. Capistrant's book. I'm very proud of it; I think it's well done, well written, easy to read and comprehend, and pretty intriguing, but in my heart, I thought this whole concept is probably too good to be true. The fascial distortion model just doesn't square with everything I know about medicine and healing.

Then last Thursday morning I sprained my right ankle. New shoes, pouring rain, big hurry. It was bad--I cried like a little kid, for an embarrassing length of time. Luckily my husband was home, witnessed the whole thing, and was available to drive me to my clinic. I mentioned this book to my doctor (a pretty open-minded guy) and asked him if he knew anything about manipulating distorted fascia to fix a sprained ankle. He said no, it's not possible. The only thing that heals a sprained ankle is time. He put me on crutches and in a boot that looks like something a Storm Trooper would wear, and told me not to drive for six weeks. I'm a working mom, and that's a real hardship on our family. Plus, the Minnesota summer is so short--it's demoralizing to have to miss any of it, and six weeks is MOST of it. I had to cancel longstanding plans to visit a friend's cabin, and instead spent my lame (literally) three-day weekend hobbling from the bed to the couch to the bed, feeling very sorry for myself.

On Saturday night, in despair, I emailed Dr. Capistrant, who lives in Alaska. I asked him if he could recommend a provider in the Twin Cities who knows this method.Read more ›

By Michael Hall on February 19, 2016
Format: Perfect Paperback Verified Purchase
For any med student, especially an osteopathic med student, or patient of chronic pain this is a great read. Explains how the slightest changes in our body can cause major pain and what we can do to realign it to its proper arrangement and by so doing relieving pain. Definitely an introduction to the FDM model (doesn't get too complicated) and an easy read for both student and patient.

5.0 out of 5 starsVery EASY yet INFORMATIVE read!
By Mack J on August 18, 2015
Format: Perfect Paperback Verified Purchase
I've suffered from long standing, chronic low level (yet annoying) neck and thoracic pain for over 11 years. Being a physical therapist myself, I have tried everything including seeing many many massage therapists, physical therapists, chiropractors, naturopaths and acupuncturists and have spent hundreds of dollars on this chronic problem. Everything helped but never really took the pain away nor the constant discomfort that I felt. It became my new "normal".

I found a Physical Therapist who treated my neck and upper back using the Fascial Distortion Model, and for literally 6 minutes, the pain was completely dissolved. 11 years of pain! GONE. Are you kidding me??! I was completely dumbfounded. I had range of motion on my neck that I've never reached - beyond normal ROM. Truly life-changing. When you've lived in low level chronic pain for so long, your brain starts to think it is normal and would not know what "pain-free" feels like!

Now I'm learning these skills, and completely implementing this model with a paradigm shift in my practice of physical therapy! This, including all the stuff I've learned through the years! Thank you FDM and thank you to my PT Matt! I've purchased 5 of these books and they are all reading materials in the waiting area of my clinic.
