Your story holds the key to developing unique exercise patterns to reach your goals.
Phase 1: Discover your weakest links and wake-up the body.
Phase 2: Harmonize your musculoskeletal system throughout the five kinetic chains.

My neck and whole body feel more aligned today than they have in years. Whatever it is we did yesterday is already creating some deep structural changes. I also feel so much calmer and centered, I believe because some of this chronic tension was finally released yesterday.
I am really grateful for the work you’re doing and that I found it!

After having neck pain for years, due to injuries and dancing my whole life, I have tried everything to heal.
Muscle memory is taking control of my body and I am breaking the damaging postures. I am learning to reconnect my spine the correct way.
FNP is a lifestyle change that's worth the effort!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had previously been a client of John Welch and always respected his knowledge and dedication.
After a few sessions and practicing John’s principle of spine health my neck pain resolved!
I would strongly recommend John Welch to anyone looking to improve their spine and overall health.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My first time doing the neck protocols I felt relaxed and at a peace of mind. It was so powerful that I thought I would fall asleep during the session with John.
Throughout 2021 I did FNP a lot during the day at random times.
I felt that it really helped my running!

Dude, FNP is AMAZING!! I'm a bit obsessed now. Honestly, I thought I was too far gone and back surgery was inevitable. But now, I'm not just hopeful for healing...
I'm sure I'm on the right path.

My neck has been faring pretty well!
It's just so nice to not have to rely on a Chiropractor or a piece of equipment to feel better.

Loving the ‘release’ that I am feeling in my body! No more ‘crinked up’ feeling neck and my brain seems to be working better!
Feeling good!

John's techniques saved my bacon!
I fight MMA and Jiu-Jitsu on a national level (and I am not a young man anymore). Without John's help, I do not think I would even be able to compete! Before working with John, injuries always haunted me.
It is amazing how he can help you enjoy life more, no matter what you are going through.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I was slow on the FNP uptake, but after only doing it (inconsistently) for a week the mobility in my left shoulder is almost back to normal.
It's like a circuit was flipped on. All it took was some intention.
But don't get me wrong. I'm not stopping just because I feel better.
I am going to see just how good it can get!
Kathryn Bernhardt
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I have been struggling with chronic pain due to EDS in all my joints for years. As a Physical Therapist, I already had a lot of knowledge about the human body but John really gave me some new and exciting stuff to think about!
He is very passionate about what he does which is very motivating during the sessions.
FNP definitely helps me to stabilize my body in a functional way and I am hopeful to finally be on the right path.
