I grew up idolizing my dad. He was a military man in the Philippines. He would spend the week away from us on assignments. I remember being so excited looking forward to the weekend when he would come home. My dad taught me a lot. Hard work… dedication… discipline… and giving it your best in everything you do.

PATIENT SPOTLIGHTS

#UnhinderedLives #OBTSCares

“I injured my obliques and neck after lifting heavy boxes. I was in so much pain that it was difficult to breath, sneeze, and cough without feeling pain. My family Doctor recommended muscle relaxers and anti-inflammatory drugs for my injury, and told me I should expect two plus weeks of pain and four weeks for full recovery. I asked about physical therapy and he said I could try it. At Orthopedic and Balance Therapy Specialists, Noel suggested that I try Laser Therapy. Within one week of starting laser therapy, I was surprised by how quick it relieved my pain. I returned to playing pickleball and ping pong. I recently returned to Orthopedic and Balance Therapy Specialists for a shoulder injury and I started laser therapy treatment immediately to help relieve my pain!" -Bob Schwartz "I returned to playing pickleball and ping pong."

“I have used this amazing Laser treatment twice now, once for my shoulder and once for my hip. I believe it promotes faster healing time and is painless. Even though my insurance didn’t cover it, it was well worth the cost. I highly recommend it to all my friends to help them with their pain and get them better faster." - Dorothy Smith "I highly recommend it to all my friends"

"Thank you OBTS."

This place is amazing. I’ve seen them once for evaluation and had 2 laser treatments from a new machine that is 4x stronger than any other laser and after 2 treatments I am pain free. My last MRI showed scarring down the sciatic nerve which was causing pain. The new laser has proven successful. I was at the end of hoping for relief without another surgery. Thank you God for this group of therapists and equipment they have available to relieve chronic pain. If you are looking for therapists and positive results, look no further. This group is incredible with results. Thank you OBTS.” - P.H.

Rudy! Rudy! Rudy! Noel and I had the pleasure to meet the real life Daniel "Rudy" Ruettiger whose life story was made into the 1993 movie Rudy. Rudy's story is very inspirational! He spoke about going after your dreams and never letting an outside influence stop you! He has an awesome personality and continuously made the crowd laugh. He believes anything is possible with passion and desire to achieve it. -Meghan Romo Rudy! Rudy! Rudy!

Effective Hip&Knee PainRelief

Put the Spring Back in Your Step Do you find it harder to walk, run or exercise? Is hip, knee or leg pain keeping you from being active? If so, understanding how your body walks and moves can be the key to putting the spring back in your step. Think of your body as a big spring that stores and releases energy with every step. The efficiency of your walk comes from the effectiveness of your flexibility, strength and balance. When any one of these is off, it affects your ability to walk efficiently and takes a lot of energy. This results in increased forces through different joints and makes muscles work much harder than they need to. This leads to possible pain in the back, hips and knees. It also causes fatigue after walking, even for

a little while. If you have finished a course of treatment and you are experiencing pain again, it may be because your muscles or joints have tightened or become weak again. The Remedy The simple solution is to put the spring back in your step. This is accomplished by first analyzing how you walk.There are slight changes in the way that you walk and move, that our trained medical experts can pick up on. This analysis tells us what joints or muscles are stiff, stuck or weak. By pinpointing the exact areas of your body that are not moving as they should, we can make a plan to increase motion, strength and improve coordination.

LASER Open House at all four locations JULY 17TH AND 19TH Hello, During our recent Health Fair, we had a lot of questions about our new class 4 LASER that we purchased this year… 1. “What is a LASER machine?” 2. “Does it help with all injuries?” 3. “How does it work?” 4. “So you have a magic laser that takes away all my pain when I move?.. Come on…” The best way to answer these questions, or any questions you might have, is to come in for a free 20-minute screening during our Laser Open House. We are hosting a LASER Open House at each of our 4 locations due to popular requests from patients. This might seem goofy, but paste this URL {VIDEO} into your browser and see what happened after they treated this penguin with a laser, like the one we have… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfguNBUKnRU

Why would I show you laser treatment on a penguin?
