PATIENT SUCCESS “Top notch in every way. I worked with Frank (mostly - Riley was great too!) who was engaged, thorough and always making the exercises interesting and fun. I also felt that the manual pressure point massage was a big factor..and something I could not have done on my own (like exercises). I’d left another pt place for other reasons - they did not do the massage that really helped - so big difference there. I reached my goals of greater movement and almost completely reduced impingement in my shoulder - all normal activities have resumed all limitations no longer problems. Thanks to all for proving that the first surgery-happy doc I saw totally wrong in stating that at my age (69) pt would not work and surgery was the only thing that would do it. So glad I got a second opinion and found Elm Tree! The icing on the cake was Hank the pt pup - I’d be on the massage table and his cold nose would nudge my good hand for a pat - does it get any better?” — Alan K.
