How Manual Therapy Restored An Active Lifestyle: Michele’s Road To Recovery

Michele’s journey is absolutely a testimonial of the incredible physical benefits of manual therapy, but perhaps as important (if not more) was the emotional healing she experienced. A life without the joy of hiking, biking, running, and playing with her kids was unimaginable for Michele, and before RIOT Manual Therapy, that was the reality she faced.

One of the most important components of RIOT Manual Therapy is the holistic treatment of our patients. Of course, we focus on the root of your pain (dysfunction in the body) and treat that dysfunction with physical movement, but one of the unexpected benefits of manual therapy is the emotional piece. Michele is a prime example of how restoring function to the body can restore well-being, and we can’t wait for you to hear her story.

An Unprecedented Recovery: Jensen’s Journey with RIOT Manual Therapy

Avascular necrosis means that, for some reason, blood is no longer reaching the bone, and the bone slowly starts to die. In Jensen’s case, he had avascular necrosis of the hip. The top of his femur bone that connects to the socket of the hip was slowly eroding due to blood loss, causing pain, limping, and eventually, inability to participate in sports or walk without crutches.

When Jensen went to his first appointment at RIOT Manual Therapy, he walked in with crutches but walked out without them. Every doctor claimed that his avascular necrosis of the hip was permanent and that he would have to wait to stop growing before he could get an invasive surgery that might not even work. This is his story of healing and growth through manual therapy for chronic pain.
