I used to have lower back pain due to having lived a sedentary life and sitting in a bad position for several years. I say used to because thanks to Rick I don't anymore. I was told by doctors in my home country, Argentina, that I couldn't lift weights or run ever again in my life because I had a bulging disk which caused the pain. I was 25 years old and I didn't want to believe it. I reached Rick via email and booked a Skype consultation. He assured me that with his treatment I would perform better and stop feeling pain if I went to Dallas for four weeks. I flew over to Dallas and did 13 sessions with Rick. The treatment improved much more things than what I initially thought it would improve. Now I do not feel lower back pain but I'm also not slouching, I'm able to stand or sit without back support much longer than before and I don't need orthotics anymore. Overall the quality of my life improved so much that I cannot thank Rick enough. I will always recommend him highly to anyone that has similar issues and I intend to have my family visit him when possible.
DANCING BAREFOOT AGAIN!!! Plantar fasciitis interrupted my Nia practice off and on for over a year. I tried all of the conventional treatments (exercises, taping, rolling, orthotics, etc.) with NO SUCCESS. I was super frustrated that I could not find a breakthrough and all my research pointed me back to the same treatments. A friend sent me an article on PF by Rick that blew my mind and gave me hope. We had a total of 3 sessions. From the start, he was confident that he had the knowledge and ability to address my issue – that helped me a great deal. Everyone else I worked with would say things like “it works for some” or “may take a year to get better.” So frustrating!!! The payoff: I don’t feel that horrible morning foot pain any more, can walk barefoot around the house, can wear normal, attractive shoes and, most importantly, I CAN DANCE BAREFOOT WITH NO PAIN!!! Rick thinks differently, has different/specialized training and expertise, and approaches this condition in a much different way. I deeply appreciate his ability to listen, observe and work slowly and deeply to heal. Rick, thank you for pursuing excellence in what you do and providing treatment that truly delivers the desired outcome.
