I’ve always been a very active person and was used to working out 5-6 days a week, but the pain got to the point where I couldn’t maintain my normal activity level. An MRI confirmed that I had a disc herniation. I tried a round of steroids and physical therapy, but I still wasn’t getting the improvement I was looking for. That’s when I decided to try a different approach. After going through treatment at Apex, we were able to significantly improve my spinal alignment, my back pain improved, and I was able to get back to doing my normal activities again. Being able to return to an active lifestyle and do the things I enjoy without my back holding me back has been a huge win."
