I met a lovely 53 year old gentleman, who was suffering from severe low back and hip pain for over a year, diagnosed with a herniated disc. He had tried physical therapy with some relief, but still was unable to eliminate his pain. After diagnosing and treating muscles in his low back, buttock, and thigh, he reported no low back pain, and was discharged from our office. However, after five years, he returned to our office, stating that he had foot pain, diagnosed with plantar fasciitis, and unable to rock climb or hike without severe pain in his calves and feet. After identifying and treating multiple muscles in his calves, shins, and feet, he reported 100% relief, and even finished a 10 day rock climbing trip. Although you may be given one diagnosis, sometimes we find muscle involvement and are able to eliminate the pain!
