How often does Dr. Birikov publish new content?

When there is something worth writing — typically once or twice a month. Every article is written by me, not ghost-written or staff-attributed.

Can I find answers to my PT questions here?

The blog covers mechanisms and methods in depth; the FAQ page covers the practical pre-booking questions — cost, sessions, what to expect. Between the two, most questions are answered. The rest, ask me directly.

How do I book a session after reading an article?

Call or text (443) 228-8029, or use the contact page. I respond personally, usually the same day.
