It uses a wide range of techniques to treat musculo-skeletal problems and other functional disorders of the body. It was developed in America in the 1870’s Dr Andrew Taylor Still, and is now widely recognised throughout the world as one of the most scientifically validated and effective "complementary" therapies (World Health Organisation)
