Back Pain
Back pain from many causes may be treated with simple exercises that emphasize
specific needs for muscular balance. Each individual’s movement patterns contribute
to the pain and therefore will benefit from a specifically tailored program.
| “I didn't realize how effective physical therapy could be until I was treated by Amy.
I had tried physical therapy with other therapists, and it had been completely
ineffective. Amy took the time to figure out why I had pain, and provided a set of
easy to do exercises that made a big difference in my pain level. I've referred
a lot of other people to her, and they've all had similar experiences. It's great to
know there's someone to help those of us with unusual backs.” |
