Re: any one from New England area & other stuff

[Guest guest]

Hello!

We live in Connecticut, and receive our band teatment from Cranial

Technologies in Clinton, CT. Our specialist is in New Haven, CT.

Perhaps you could look into getting treatment for Bri there, as well.

You didn't mention where in Mass. you are so I'm not sure if that is

even a better option for you. Let me know if I can help with anything.
