Specializes in Internal Medicine

Not much: It has not been studied and has no proven benefit. It was developed mostly to improve posture, balance and alleviate pain. It is more widely use by performers and athletes and is taught by certified teachers who have gone through about a 3 year certification program usually in wellness centers.
