ABS. Physical Therapy Is The Natural Pain Relief Solution

PATIENT SUCCESS STORY Physical Therapy Helped This Pat ient Avoid Surger y

Physical Therapy helped one of our patients, Shirley delay elective surgery. Previously, 85 year-old Shirley enjoyed golfing, gym and home exercising. Shirley experienced a gradual progression of shoulder pain, limiting her ability to sleep and restricting the use of her arm for daily activities, such as brushing her hair, reaching for items in the kitchen. It also limited her tolerance for golfing. She also began experiencing occasional pain around the neck area and into the arm. A sharp pain would increase suddenly when reaching outward, followed by a lasting aching pain. Because of this, Shirley was scheduled for an elective surgery to address radiographic and MRI findings, but had to postpone surgery. She then decided to seek out a physical therapist to treat her pain. After a Physical Therapist’s examination and evaluation, Advanced Balance Studio designed a treatment plan to recover range-of-motion, modify sleep position, strengthen weak muscles, and eventually even return to golf and normal activities. Following three weeks (6 visits total) of implementing this treatment plan, Shirley does not have constant pain, is sleeping better and is looking forward to the day she will return to golf. If her recovery continues to improve, Shirley believes she may be able to avoid surgery altogether! When it comes to her physical therapy treatments, Shirley enjoys the stretching, soft tissue work and exercise progression, as it reminds her of her previous fitness activities. She is happy she chose physical therapy versus surgery and opioids!

We look forward to seeing her on the golf course, once again, with her friends!
