and shoulder pain was maddening. For the past 6 years, all I have dealt with is pain
all over-almost as if someone tied a million knots in my body. Being in
college and working, I sit a lot and deal with a great amount of stress
that radiates in my shoulders and a tight neck. I also had issues with
my hip long ago and had been going to a chiropractor to "fix" it. After
going to Frank for just a week and a half, I am now able to work and go
to school without pain and the burning sensation I would always
get in my shoulders. My neck is not tight anymore and I do not feel the
need to go to the chiropractor for my hip as my body realigned itself
due to the correct posture, sleep position, and releasing the muscles
through trigger point therapy, I am back to normal! Even BETTER than
normal. I am so blessed to have Frank in my life to help me get rid of
this debilitating pain I have encountered for majority of my young life.
I
have been to so many doctors and therapists until I finally found
Frank. I saw Frank 2x/wk for appx a month then 1x/wk then every other
week and now am functioning virtually pain free for the first
time in 4 years! I have scoliosis, 6 degenerating discs in the thoracic
and lumbar a winged scapula resulting in multiple spasms turning into
neurological pain patterns. Frank helped map a pattern not just
by educating me and providing much needed trigger point release, but
addressing lifestyle issues exacerbating my pain. After changing
my sleeping and sitting habits and using one shoe insert, I saw a
dramatic difference in my abilities and endurance! His protocol of NOT
gutting through a session (which just angers the area and was miserable)
but being consistent and gently releasing of the fascia helped me
tremendously. I have since referred many to him stating: don't wait! Frank can save you time, frustration, pain
and money in injections, docs, and expensive procedures. Aside from all
this, Frank really cares about seeing his clients improve which is
evident in his flexibility, follow up, professionalism and is just a joy
to be around.
pain should see Frank Gresham at the Chronic Pain Center. I suffered with debilitating myofascial pain
throughout my body for nearly a year. I sought extensive treatment from
doctors and physical therapists. I tried epidurals, acupuncture, dry
needling and cold laser treatments. The pain persisted. I did not
find lasting relief until I saw Frank. And, it only took a few visits.
His therapy focused on the cause of my pain - e.g., posture, diet and stress. I am very thankful I found out about Frank's special practice.
Thinking
it was from a combination of the work I do and/or bad posture, I just
kind of accepted it. After hearing Frank speak of pain issues on
numerous occasions I decided to be checked out. In one visit he
diagnosed me with one leg shorter than the other that misaligned my
spine and relieved the pain in my back. I now also focus on better posture because I can't get Frank out of my head! :)
in
Sept 2010. He started having short term memory loss and intense all day
headaches. We went to all kinds of doctors and a Neurologist. Nothing
worked. I prayed to find a solution and found Frank at church in Dec. In
two sessions, my son was almost pain free. In the third session
as my son learned how to sleep and sit in better positions, the
headaches completely stopped. Frank helped my son understand how he
needs to care for his body as an athlete. Frank is GREAT! I recommend
him highly for anyone with chronic pain. You'll enjoy your new life!!
