"Before coming into the clinic I was experiencing terrible low back pain and had a hard time walking, sitting for long periods and stretching down the right side of my body.
After working closely with my therapist and going through my program for several weeks I am now able to have full range of motion back and work out without any pain. Orca helped me to develop a custom plan to get back to being pain-free." - Emily B. "1. Walking as a part of fitness 2. Standing for more than 10 minutes or so : Getting up from floor level ; was experiencing moderate to severe low back pain and knee pain .
1. I am able to walk for one hour ( i get 6000 steps ) in the mornings ; i walk 6 days in a week . 2. I can stand for longer duration say 20 minutes or so without pain 3. I can get up from lower seats ; with palm support i am able to rise from floor level The Chiropractor Ms Tracy explained what the problem was ; Understanding the problem helped me to relate to Dos and Don'ts . She focused on my back issue in the beginning ; relieving the pain helped me to start my walk gradually . The exercises which were simple in the beginning motivated me to do it regularly ; gradually she made them challenging . She also explained which muscle group or which part of the body i should feel the stretch while doing a particular exercise . I feel this is very important to have effectiveness . I had about 15 sittings ( there could be a slight variation in this number ) during my stay in Seattle . Once my back pain receded she worked on my knee . She is very committed , friendly and has lot of empathy . The exercises are really helping me . She customized the exercises for both back and knee issue . The key is to doing the exercises regularly ; By marking on the exercise program every day i am able to self monitor my regularity . It is a very useful tool Orca Wellness has provided . The front office executives are also very warm and helpful . Overall I had a good experience and quality of my life has improved with the exercise sessions ." Ann V. "Identifying the exact reasons why my left side was more tense than my right side of my shoulder and back.
I'm able to know what actions to take to improve on my movement. Tracy was super helpful and amazing in helping me understand the problem and the causes, and the habits I would need to build to reverse the tension. I wish I could have gone to her for longer than my program of 6 weeks, and I would strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a chiropractor!" - Nancy Z. |
