About the Author

David Knox spent more than 20 years in New York studying ballet, jazz, and modern and ethnic dance and performing in the US, Canada, and Europe. He is also an expert in martial arts and currently holds two black belts in Japanese martial techniques. Diagnosed with a rare congenital spinal fracture early in his career, David immediately began searching for a solution that would keep him on his feet. Following further injuries, he used the same approach to every other part of his body. He has now spent more than four decades examining the structure and mechanics of the human body and developing safe and effective healing and recovery techniques. David's healing techniques employ a combination of modified exercises, stretches, and acupressure-based massage and are easy to use and very effective. Today, David trains many clients, focusing not only on strength and cardiovascular benefits, but emphasizing healthful form, support, and technique to keep joints, bones, muscles, and nerves at their best throughout life.
