Most people go on cruises for relaxation or adventure, but what if it also solves a 15-year struggle en route to Alaska? This is exactly what happened when a Texas-based occupational therapist decided to help a student’s husband. Alison Taylor, who is developing a specialized method called Treatment Without Pain, was running a class on a Princess Cruises ship when the breakthrough occurred.
According to the post caption on Facebook, after a session, one of Taylor’s students, Gina Kang, asked if her husband, Charlie, could join the second day of the class. Charlie was not a therapist, but he was there to support his wife, and as Taylor noted on Facebook, he spent his time quietly absorbing information and practicing with tools. The situation changed when Gina asked if Taylor’s techniques could help with her husband’s persistent TMJ issues.
