This is a spontaneous Email from a PT from out of state. I saw her once and gave a strong letter suggesting a work up for discitis (infection in the disc) and this or a lower thoracic herniateion after testing with provocation, first in neutral, then extension, then child pose, tapping T1-S5. She had 2 fairly normal MRI’s yet severe sciatica for 2 years, obviously in significant duress, runs a large practice, has a 3 year old and a one year old and this really affects her ability to be a mom.
“…I have felt improvment no doubt due to seeing you. I have more range of motion without such a stiff end range in every position I tried. I would have unrelievable pressure that seems you have really helped. I do think the underlying cause you are probably right on track with the discitis. After researching it, it makes more since. This is the best I have felt in over a year, and the cheapiest thing yet. …Shirley Sarhmann has a great outlook on the effects on mal alignment and recoil etc.…If someone would put her methods and yours together, it would be amazing. In fact that was the approach I took. I had two 270 pound men who were thinking of surgery become pain free by using your and her techniques. And they lost no weight….THank you, Thank you, Thank you. And I will now return any help i can to you. “ |
