“I’m sharing my story as this may help someone else struggling:<br>I’ll try to keep it short…..<br><br>Several weeks ago I began experiencing severe pain through my left leg, so much so that I was unable to walk more than half a block.<br>I happened to come across a magazine article about a woman, 15 years younger than me with even more severe symptoms putting her in wheelchair.<br>She lived in Florida & no doctor there was able to help her with her pain.<br>She found Dr. Echo here at Houston Methodist. With just a few questions, he diagnosed her over the phone.<br>Compressed nerves. We usually hear about issues with sciatica, but there are several nerves that can be compromised by a muscle or facia pressing incorrectly.<br>What causes this…..<br>Well for me it was standing in heels for over 8 hours teaching.<br>That is one cause, but there are others.<br>The woman in the article had 2 surgeries, first on one nerve, sorry I don’t remember the name, and then the sciatic. Thankful to say Dr. Echo was able to relieve her pain & she is once again able to walk.<br><br>What did I do? Well I knew Dr. Echo was an option, but first I made an appointment with my good friend Anne-Marie Ozaki<br>A&M is a certified medical massage therapist.<br>She understood my symptoms, with her hands she could feel the stress points and (with much discomfort?) was able to relieve the pressure on the comprised nerves.<br>After my first visit, I was feeling less pain.<br>After 3 visits I’m back to walking 2 miles 4 times a week. And bonus….. walked 4-5 miles for 5 days in a row with my family in Vegas!<br>I’m grateful to Anne-Marie and her expertise! She corrected my issues, eliminated my pain and prevented possible surgery.<br>Just as that magazine article prompted me, I’m hopeful if you are in a similar situation, you have Dr. Echo as a resource.<br>But more importantly, you now have A&M as a resource with a less invasive remedy to nerve pain.”
