I am not familiar with this treatment. From my understanding it is a combination of traditional Indian medicine techniques and biofeedback. I have seen no research using this approach, so could not vouch for it. I would not recommend an unproven treatment instead of traditional rehabilitation, but it might be considered as a supplement. Do you know how expensive it is? It is unlikely to be covered by insurance.
