Of course, your next question is, "What are the usual results I can expect from MUA therapy?" You should experience an immediate increase in range of motion, even though there is usually some temporarily added muscle soreness similar to the feeling of having completed an aggressive exercise session. In cases involving symptoms caused by disturbance from adhesions and shortened tissues, there should be a significant change, either immediately or within a short period following the procedures. After the series of MUA, the patient must adhere to a schedule of in-office follow-up care and self-help exercise to maintain the gains received through the procedure.

• 83% of 417 patients treated with MUA responded well – Paul Kuo, MD professor of Orthopedic Surgery
• 96.3% of patients diagnosed with myofibrositis reported excellent to good results with MUA – 1963: Donald Siehl
• Patients who had reported back pain for a minimum of 10 years reported 87% recovery rate after MUA – 1987: Ongly et. al

• 71% of 723 MUA patients had good results (return to normal activity relatively symptom free) and 25% had fair results (return to normal activity with slight residuals) and that flexibility, elasticity, and range of motion can be restored following MUA - Bradford and Siehl
