About John: “I was attracted to the field of physical therapy from a very young age. I wanted to pursue it not only as an art but as a science. Traditional physical therapy focuses on the treatment of symptoms. Often this means an unresponsive treatment because the real cause of the problem may be located elsewhere. This treatment of referred pain can lead to an inaccurate physical therapy evaluation and ineffective treatment.

Dr. Krauss is the coordinator of the Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapy Graduate Certification and an Associate Professor at Oakland University School of Health Sciences. Dr. Krauss has authored/co-authored numerous books, book chapters and peer-reviewed articles on manual treatment for a variety of orthopedic conditions.
