Rehabilitation

I was experiencing low back pain that impacted everything I did from walking to sitting, including laying down even. There was no escape!

I experienced measurable relief after my very first PT appointment. Dr. Wyss and Jessica honed in on exactly what was causing my problem right away. And over the course of a few months, my back is in better condition than ever!! As a result, I was able to climb the great wall of China for several hours without a modicum of pain, though I was fatigued.

Thanks so much to Dr. Wyss and Jessica Hettler for getting me back in the game.
