How your body opposes the forces of gravity determines your fl exibility. Candice understands the scientific laws that describe and predict pain patterns and has been trained to look for the initial insult that may have caused your particular pain patterns. The oldest injury she has treated happened 70 years before the client sought Candice’s treatment. Let Candice‘s 28 years of experienced and trained touch begin eliminating your pain.
