Just went to a seminar on this last night, and one of the speakers did those. Not every orthopod does these, and he said results really vary - but were good enough for him to keep doing them. Finding the right doc is step one, and ask him what he thinks about your case. And then find a different doc to help keep the rest of you from wearing out!
