Luc 30 min foot treatment using PDTR and Anatomy in Motion
In this 30‑minute foot treatment session, clinician Tom Gellie guides patient Speaker B through a series of pain assessments and functional tests to evaluate foot discomfort that has persisted for about six months. The patient rates pain on a 0‑10 scale, initially reporting high levels (7‑10) during weight‑bearing and movement. Tom asks the patient to stand on the balls of the feet and to apply compression, noting the presence or absence of pain during these maneuvers. After a series of five corrective interventions, the patient reports a marked reduction in pain, indicating no discomfort when standing, walking, or pressing the foot against the ground. The clinician confirms the improvement, and the patient expresses satisfaction with the outcome. The session demonstrates the use of PDTR (Progressive Dynamic Tissue Release) combined with Anatomy in Motion techniques to achieve rapid pain relief in a chronic foot condition.
