“When a patient comes to my practice, I obviously want them to leave feeling better. But my main goal is to understand how and why the pain started, what we can do to improve the symptoms, and how to prevent any future reoccurrences. I firmly believe in the combination of expert hands on techniques with a tailored home-exercises program.”
Taras Makarenko graduated from the Universite Libre de Bruxelles in Belgium and has since worked in France as well as the last 8 years in Hong Kong.
