“Maysin originally came in because for the past several years, he had been having complained of knee pain. He has been seen by numerous doctors and taking numerous tests to rule out any genetic or blood disorders. At one point, he was confined to a wheelchair. Desperate for answers and results for his chronic pain, we were recommended towards the route of physical therapy. Daily rubdowns were needed to alleviate Maysin’s pain. Today he lives mostly pain-free, has much happier presence, and a positive outlook on his ability to be a normal kid.” - M. T. “Today he lives mostly pain-free.”
