Max Secchi is also a trained and registered Perrin Technique practitioner. Some studies have indicated that the Perrin Technique can aid the recovery of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME) sufferers. Max Secchi uses the Perrin Technique researched by Dr Raymond Perrin who has postulated that chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) can be caused by poor circulation of the cerebrospinal fluid and lymphatics resulting in a toxic build up. The Perrin Technique, devised by Dr Perrin involves osteopathic techniques to stimulate the circulation of cerebrospinal fluid and lymphatic drainage, restoration of upper back function and to facilitate detoxification by the liver. More information about the Perrin Technique can be found by visiting The Perrin Clinic website or to talk to a Perrin Technique practitioner please call 01364 652016.

Dr Raymond Perrin has been researching ME / CFS for the last 18 years. As an osteopath he first noticed some postural similarities in ME / CFS sufferers which when corrected could lead to an improvement in the patients ME symptoms. He has postulated that toxins build up in the cerebro-spinal fluid, the fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord due to poor drainage caused by these postural restrictions. His research suggests that by improving the circulation of the cerebro spinal fluid using gentle cranial osteopathic techniques and by aiding lymphatic drainage using effulage many ME / CFS sufferers could see an improvement in their symptoms.

The Perrin Technique also involves prescribing the ME sufferer some gentle exercises to help restore movement in the thoracic spine, self massage to improve the circulation of cerebro spinal fluid and lymphatic drainage. Combined with some supplements for supporting the physiology of the nervous system and detoxification by the liver.
