In a world where relief from chronic pain has grown into an industry selling hope, the Caruso Method delivers actual, measurable healing. Based on a deep understanding of how movment works in the body, physical therapist Mike Caruso has developed an innovative, movement-based approach to physical therapy that heals the cause of your movement pain naturally - without drugs or surgery. The mis-steps that gave use the Opioid Crisis and the lesser-known Spine Care Crisis (see the 2018 Lancet J. Spine Care Research Special Issue) are the result of an incomplete understanding of movement and pain science. The cutting edge in rehab for all discipines is the artfully merging the new sciences. Mike Caruso works with you to address your movement dysfuction patterns. Dysfunction patters are common but solutions need to be customized and simple. Once you master your custom movements, you can practice the Caruso Method in your own home - on your own schedule. Armed with the right tools to continue your healing, you save time and money as you gain freedom from the pain.
