“My back hurt for over a year before I decided that it had to be more than just the aging process (I’m 65). I used to run (Hood to Coast was a favorite–I did it over 10 times),but thatwas “back in theday.”Over theyears, Ihadsomehealthchallenges, continued to age, and got WAY out of shape. Running was impossible. Walking– possible, but with a great deal of pain. I could barely bend down, and I certainly couldn’t lift myself to a standing position without bracing on a stationary object. I saw Jonathan Rice, DPT, who analyzed my gait and history. He immediately saw my problem and gave me a few exercises before I left the office. I felt a little better just doing the exercises in the office, but still didn’t have high hopes. I was wrong–way wrong. By the time I saw him again in a week, I was walking almostpain-free.He thengavemedifferentexercises tonotonlyalleviatemypain, but also to strengthen the area (mostly my glutes) that needed help. By the time I saw him again one week later, I felt 1000% better than I did pre-Jonathan. I’m even running again (okay, only a little so far, and slow as molasses). I feel terrific. Long story long–Jonathan did a great job analyzing my problem and offering a solution.Myprognosis isgreat. IhavenoproblemgivingAscenta5star rating (and Jonathan a 6 star rating if one existed). My only regret is having waited so long. - Jay D.
