    Patient Experience

    "When I started seeing Dr. P, my lower back would be so stiff and painful when I woke up in the morning and no amount of stretching was helping me. I even looked up exercises to do online for my lower back and nothing helped. Quickly, after starting treatment, my sleep quality improved and I was able to get up in the morning and it wouldn't take me even half the time to warm my back up and start to have it loosen up. Dr. Porcher and his team are very talented and thorough, and they did a great job taking me from where I was when I started at the beginning and in a lot of pain, all the way to the point where I was gaining balance, strength, and the ability to push my body in my workouts and with my weekly basketball league. I still see Dr. P and Bre for monthly maintenance because I don't ever want to feel the way I used to."

    Treatment Details

    Krys presented with an acute exacerbation of lower back pain, which he had chronically for the past few years. He says that he had problems with playing basketball and then would be worse the day after he played. Spinal Xrays showed subluxation (joint restriction) with a motion study, and we also saw heavy posterior weight-bearing on the joints in the back side of his vertebrae in the lower back, as well as posterior thoracic translation and "sway back." We used corrective chiropractic care including CBP mirror image traction to help improve movement in his TL junction as well as the structural posture of his spine. He also was treated with dry needling, Active Release Techniques (ART), muscle activation (was very weak in the front line--lower abdominals and hip flexors), as well as postural rehabilitation. Krys reported at least an 85-90% improvement
