"Early intervention in a safe environment that promotes healing, with few side-effects, is vital. In practical terms, for instance, in at least 50% are cases, we can tell what's going on without the patient having to wait for an MRI, and then paying $2100 for it; all the while suffering pain and loss of mobility. If an x-ray shows nothing is broken, we can deal with the soft tissue aspects, so what's left? What do you think people did before MRI's? Try PT First! Save suffering, save money."

"I was talking with a nurse in her OB office last week and she was moved to tears to learn that PT was an option for her. Her physicians typically don't refer to PT, and she has struggled with her weight for some time.. She was considering medication to control her elevated cholesterol and triglycerides, but I encouraged her to 'Try PT First'. Now, she is a patient in our office and has lined up several of her friends to see us as well as referring a number of patients."

"Why Try PT First is easy! PT works! I have had numerous patients who saw surgeons who recommended surgery. They were sent to me by non-operative doctors who the patients saw for a second opinion. After Physical Therapy for a number of weeks, they had no pain, were sleeping well, and did not need surgery or drugs. Why PT First? It Works!"

"Any problem that a patient is having has a physical cause. Whether the problem started yesterday or 5 years ago, if you don't discover and address the cause, but only mask it with bed rest and drugs, the person simply will not get better. PT is the science of discovering and handling the causes of the problem the patient is having, so it doesn't recur."
