“I had severe neck and shoulder pain
for about three months. I thought that it might have been a pinched nerve or
stressed muscle but I wasn’t quite sure exactly what was wrong or what I needed
to do to fix it. In the past when I had these problems, I would get a massage
and be good to go. The massage didn’t work so a friend of mine suggested that I
go to a chiropractor. Unfortunately, the chiropractor wasn’t going to be a good
fit for me because after an initial consultation, x-rays and a follow up
appointment, I was told that I would have to come back for follow up treatments 2
times a week for 18-20 weeks. This was NOT an option for me.
I am a super busy
person who is constantly in motion and I didn’t have the time for this type of
treatment. Now, you are likely thinking- why didn’t you go to a doctor? The
reason being: I am not a big fan of our traditional medical system. I don’t
want to take any medications to ease pain. I want to learn what I need to do to
FIX the pain. I was seeking other options that I thought would be more cost
effective and I was worried that Physical Therapy would be way out of my price
range. But I had enough.
At the suggestion of another friend and after hearing
about my roller-coaster ride, I walked into Maccio PT and met Joe. That day I
was in severe pain. I couldn’t bend down to put on my shoes or move the right
half of my body without screeching out in pain. This was
absolutely no way to live and I didn’t care how much it cost- if they could
help me, it was going to be worth it.
Maccio got me in that day and after the
first two stretches I was able to move my head, neck and shoulder. It was
nothing short of amazing.
I got stretches to do at home and I had all that I
needed to care for myself at home. Two weeks later I had full range of motion
again. I can’t tell you how grateful I am for the amazing care and expertise of
the Maccio Physical Therapy team. It is without question that I recommend them.”
