| When I started therapy I suffered from low back pain for 10+ years. Driving became difficult; twisting at the waist was difficult. I also was having shoulder pain as well. After a couple of visits pain had reduced somewhat. Driving was better, I was able to twist at the waist, and my shoulder pain was gone. Pain continued to be less frequent with a slight soreness. Still no shoulder pain! Pain had diminished significantly; still no shoulder pain and I can twist at the waist. Pain free 95% of the time, driving long distances still some pain. No shoulder pain, able to twist at the waist, pain free… Satisfied!

When I first came into the office in August of 2008 I was in very much pain in my lower back. The pain was on the left/right side and the pain was so bad that when I would try to stand up, there was a level of 10 plus pain. After about 3 visits the pain was much less and down to about a 3 or 4. There is no pain now and I can do just about anything I want to do with no problems.

When I first came to therapy I was having pain in my middle back that was radiating around to my chest. I had difficulty performing daily tasks due to increased pain with activity. After only a few therapy sessions, I noticed the pain began to dissipate. Now, I am pain free. I am no longer hindered by pain. Thank you for referring me to therapy.

My back was in pain all the time when I first started therapy, my shoulder was sore all the time, too. Now I have no pain in my back or my shoulder.

Since coming here my pain is gone and I can do everything I use to do before my back started to hurt. Before I had to sleep on my back on a heating pad. Now I can change positions in bed without any pain. I feel so much better and would highly recommend Synergy Therapeutic Group.

Before I was very tender in my upper back and had lot of pain. My pain level was at an 8 or 9 and now it is a 0-2. I had general weakness in my arms before. Now I can get out of a chair or couch easier. I can also carry stuff without fatigue.

I had a pain and soreness level of about 5 or 6 when I first came to therapy. I feel the pain is less and the soreness is much better, about a 3 or 4. I’m not hurting at night so much; some nights not even at all. My back hurt so bad I could hardly stand the pain, now it does not hurt at all. My hips were very tender also but that pain is gone as well.
(Shirley, Du Quoin, IL)
My pain was about an 8 or 9 on a scale of 10. After 16 treatments when I left the office the last time it was a 0. This is after about 20 years of back pain.
My pain started at an 8, now it is down to a 2 and I feel much better. My household and daily activities are much easier now.

At first I had trouble walking because my sore back would not let me stand up straight. I would have to stoop over to walk and it was very painful especially going up steps. Also I have difficulty getting in bed at night because my back would hurt like crazy when I would try to lie down. I would have to lie down on my side and scream a little while. I tried to maneuver into a laying down position on my back. This would all take quite a while before I would be lying down correctly. My knees also gave me a lot of pain if I had to bend my knees very much. My pain was an 8 when I started and now it is down to about 2 or 3. Everything is much better now, very little pain.
