i googled him, being famous and all, i dunno how you could get an appointment, and i assume he costs an arm and a leg.

also, he seems to imply that he uses eastern mysticism to cure people. he talks about judo and stuff on his youtube channel.

A medical reporter from Johns Hopkins came to our facility mid-2012 to observe treatments of 3 patients sent with a Nurse Practioner from an orthopedic surgeon for a demonstration of our treatment and results. 2 knees and 1 hip, all three scheduled for replacement and all three displaying clearly observed pain and walking/gait impairment to help assess beyond subjective feedback.

After the one (long) treatment the 2 canes and one knee brace were no longer used. Pain was greatly abated or gone. Gait was much better, range of motion very good.

The Nurse Practitioner confirmed that their surgeon called off the surgeries after that. All three patients needed several followups since it was much more than just knees or hips but networks of glued-together (adhesions) of the muscles and tendons.
i hope he's for real, and people desperate for pain relief might as well take a chance. i would but i cant fly off to get treated at this time. maybe if i win the lottery...

he makes some outrageous claims on his website, that he can cure problems that require surgery etc. i'd steer clear unless its VERY affordable, which i doubt...

I also Googled him, but could find nothing written from independent medical sources to substantiate the claims made. After 25 years of chronic, searing pain I would be first in the queue if I thought there was anything to someone 'snapping their fingers' and curing me.
