“I have suffered with achilles tendinitis for 3+ years. I had taken
medication to relieve the near constant pain, but did not want to take it
forever. I had seen a podiatrist and gotten a cortisone shot that only helped
for 3 weeks. I decided to just live with the pain up until recently, when a
friend recommended her podiatrist to me. I thought maybe I would give it one
more try. Since I have been in pain for so long, the doctor said to try PT
first for 6 weeks.
Another friend has just recently mentioned how much Maccio has helped
with her back and explained the McKenzie Method. So I thought I’d try Maccio
even though I live in Clifton Park. The first appointment was so encouraging. I
was given an exercise to do and I immediately saw a HUGE improvement.
Since I had such amazing results, I wanted to see if they could help
with my almost-constant lower lumbar pain that I “just live with.” For the next
several weeks, I had foot and back exercises and am now 95% pain free!
Since my issues have been so long-standing, the last little bit to 100%
will take a little more time. I am happy to be able to exercise and sit without
pain. The best part is that Joe, Kelsey, Sam and Lindsay have given me the
tools that will allow me to manage my pain; so when I sense some back pressure,
I know what to do to alleviate it. I don’t have to use meds or wait to get an
appointment.
Although
I also want to say that this was never an issue- I was always encouraged to
call if I had a problem (I did once and was called right back) and I could
easily get my appointments. I will recommend Maccio to all my friends. Thank
you for being patient with me, encouraging me, educating me and “healing” me!”
