In my line of work, success often lies in the eyes of the client. Do they feel better? Are they happier? Are their symptoms gone? It’s sometimes hard to prove results, apart from just client testimonials…until today! My client Pat came to me in February 2016 seeking relief for his severe sleep apnea.
