À propos de l'auteur

Butch Phelps is a licensed Massage Therapist, Certified Personal Trainer, and Certified in Active Isolated Stretching. Butch has been studying the muscles through the lens of an engineer, not a scientist, for over 8 years. He has worked with seniors, athletes of all levels, children, and people with joint replacements. His work has been successful in every case, helping his clients get back to the activities they love and avoiding surgeries or years of discomfort. Dr. Harvey Kaltsas, Acupuncture Physician, is a graduate of Williston Academy ('65) and Amherst College ('69), an alumnus of Boston University School of Law ('72) and the North American College of Acupuncture ('75), and a graduate of the New England School of Acupuncture ('77).

He is the only acupuncturist ever to deliver testimony regarding acupuncture to the US Senate (June, 1993), and in 2008-9 he served as Legislative Chair for AAAOM and as official liaison to AAAOM's lobbyist in Washington, D.C.
