Before my physical sessions began, I had a great deal of trouble with my lower back and hip area.  My entire life was spent trying to correct my poor posture.  In trying to correct it, I caused more damage.  I would over-exaggerate my lower back to compensate for my slouching shoulders.  Over the years, I struggled with back pain and poor posture.  It increasingly got worse and finally about 10 years ago, they found a tumor on my spinal cord and removed it;  however, it did weaken my lower back even more.  I managed to control the pain by exercising and stretching, but after having my first child 3 years ago, the back pain became a problem again.

At the start of 2010, my hips, lower back, and pelvic area became so painful that there would be weeks where I could barely walk.  I am only 34 years old, but I felt 80.  I could not sit in a chair or a car and then begin walking.  I would have to slowly stand up and limp along until my hips and lower back would loosen up enough to begin walking at a faster pace.  As the months went along, the pain became a huge nuisance.  Tired of the pain and not being able to play with my child, I finally went to the doctor.  She referred me to Inzerella Physical Therapy.  Mrs. Lynn came highly recommended because of her excellent work and her exceptional quality of care.

I began physical therapy with her 4 weeks ago.  She absolutely has every patient's best interest at heart.  I have never met a medical professional with so much to give.  She truly cares about her patients and she makes you feel like she has known you for years.  She did her evaluation and began my first treatment.  I immediately felt relief when I left there that day.  I had a burst of energy that I hadn't had in YEARS.  The pain was gone, and I felt like I could run a marathon.   Over the last 4 weeks, she has taught me everything I need to know to help correct my problem.  She and her staff are one in a million.  I have never felt so comfortable and so pleased with my outcome and my treatments!

I have not had any back or hip pain since my treatments began.  She diagnosed me and treated me very success- fully!  I will highly recommend her and her staff to anyone I meet.  It is completely amazing to me how she was able to alleviate my pain.  I now have enough energy to play with my child and to correctly perform exercises that help in my recovery.  I have exercised all my life with the wrong form;  since beginning treatment, I have dropped 5 inches off my waist alone!!  Now when I exercise, I feel my abs burning, instead of my back.  I cannot thank Mrs. Lynn  and her staff enough for helping me to get my life back!  All of the pain would drain me of my energy.  The energy that I have now since I began therapy is priceless;  especially for my 3 year old.  Thanks, Ladies!!
