Patient Results

I had excellent results!

“Before therapy, I had pain on my right side, from my upper neck to right shoulder. It was pretty intense at times. Since therapy, I had excellent results. The staff and professional service are the best I’ve ever experienced. Therapy has given me 100% improvement.” - D.G. I can do so much more now! “Before therapy, it was impossible to use my hand, arm, and shoulder. I always had to have help getting a jacket or coat on. Everything I did with my right arm was painful. Since therapy, I can do so much more now. My pain has almost stopped in my shoulder since therapy. I am so pleased with the treatment they have given me. I would advise anyone to do therapy, it helped me so much!” - R.H. Therapy has been great and so have the people! “Before therapy, I could not raise my arms over my head. My shoulder and spine hurt so bad it was hard to do anything. It was even hard to do simple tasks like brushing and washing my hair. Since therapy, I have been able to raise my arms over my head and able to change my shirt like a normal person. Little to no pain most days and able to wash and brush my hair with no problems at all. Therapy has been great and so have the people!” - S.N.
