I went to Mike for chronic pain due to a fussed ankle. The pain had been intermittent over the years. However, recently it had become consistent and interfered with my quality of life. I saw several doctors and none could see a physical reason for the pain. When I walked into Mike’s studio, he immediately saw the problem. In one session he rendered me pain free! It has now been three days and I am able to take long walks with my wife. Before I saw Mike I couldn’t go half a block without pain. Also I’m walking more balanced. Now, as a senior citizen, l feel more steady on my feet.
I had bad pain down the back of my legs and especially behind my knees. I spent a year going to doctors and to their referrals for neurology tests, MRIs, sonograms, x-rays, blood work-ups, back specialists, PT and acupuncture. Nothing helped and they could not determine what was causing the pain. I finally gave up on them and went to see Mike. He spent the time to ask me questions and analyzed my walk and posture. He worked with me on different exercises which I continue to perform daily. Within 6 sessions my pain was gone. It's been three months, and I feel great. I had spent a miserable year with pain and Mike was the only one who asked the right questions and listened when I described the pain and when I would feel it the most. I am finally able to stand and cook without pain; I can sleep through the night and again enjoy doing things I had stopped participating in due to the discomfort. Thank you, Mike!
