“I had injured both my Achilles tendons somehow back in April. I noticed it the first week of April but was hoping they would heal themselves. By the time I decided to get P/T, it was mid-May. They were very stiff to where I could barely walk in the mornings, a definite 8 to 9 on the 10-pain scale. I had 8 treatments which had helped tremendously, but I was probably still at about a 2 in morning stiffness. I took a few weeks off and did home stretching and exercises, but really was feeling no further improvement; so I went back for six more treatments. Lauren Lee was my physical therapist both times, and Taylor had seen me for several of those treatments as well. Both Lauren and Taylor were excellent! They knew exactly what to do. And they were both very supportive when I was feeling they may not get better than the level 2 stiffness. They explained that the Achilles tendons do take a long time to heal and very well explained the anatomy and healing process. I did finally have that "quantum leap" to where I am pretty much pain free. Even the mornings are about 98 percent back to normal. They gave me several tips on what to do to keep them stretched out, and I do feel that they will eventually get back to pre-injury condition. Thank you, Lauren and Taylor!”
