Untold Physio Stories

In this episode we're joined by Facial Paralysis/Bell's Palsy expert Pierre-Yves Butheau. An experienced Physio of over 20 years, he found a niche treating Bell's Palsy and other similar Facial Paralysis conditions. He uses a combination of manual therapy and active strategies much later with a great analogy for why you shouldn't focus on active strategies first. You can follow Pierre on instagram, check out his facebook group and his website. The online program he talked about toward the end of the show is here. Use the coupon PALSY20 for 20% off.
