In the fourth Egoscue Method session i experienced a miracle. My knee and ankle had hurt 5-7 on a pain scale of 1-10, for 2 weeks solid, and was keeping me awake at night. The pain came from a 3 mile hike on a steep rocky trail. Before deciding to have more prolozone therapy, I wanted to see what Egoscue could do to change the pain and function. Kathy evaluated the twists and turns of my leg, knee and foot. The computer chose "ankle sequence on a slant board." After one set of each version, my pain level went from a 5 to zero and has stayed there. 

Before enrolling in Egoscue my question to Kathy was "are you telling me that in 8 -16 weeks you can change a lifetime of bad posture" to which she simply replied, "yes".

At that time, there was a tingling pain/numbness that had spread from the outer side of my left foot all the way up my leg to my butt along with sciatic nerve pain. Two chiropractors, a homeopath and an amazing massage therapist could not change my discomfort, even a little, and it even worsened over the months. After 4 sessions of daily menu E-cises the shooting pain/numbness went down to 98% better and diminished to a much smaller area. My mid-thoracic area has been "unlocked" and my right shoulder with a torn rotator cuff injury also has 98% less pain. I do not feel the need to get as many massage or chiropractic sessions just to function and often wake up pain free which is something that rarely happened before Egoscue.

In the hope of managing pain and function levels these are the modalities I have tried in the past 54 years: A.R.T. Chiropractic, Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic, Palmer method Chiropractic, Meditation, Quantum Energetics, Acupuncture, PT, Feldenkrais, Franklin Method, Aston Patterning, Massage Therapy, Ozone Therapy, Prolozone Therapy, PRP, Osteopathic treatments, homeopathic treatments, energy healings, Physiatrist treatments, pain meds, supplements, diet, exercise, Gupta Amygdala Retraining, weight lifting and strength training, Pilates, Yoga, Qi Gong, walking, hiking, swimming, biking, extensive dental work, orthopedic braces and surgeries. 

None of the treatments or modalities above have been able to make lasting changes nor was I able to get any of the results wanted with something I could do myself. However, 4 sessions and 8 weeks of E-cises has brought me amazing results with relative ease. Every day for 30-60 minutes I follow an Egoscue™ menu, which is easy, has quick results, and built in meditation breaks. Why had I never heard of Egoscue™ before? It seems as if so much suffering could have been avoided. I am so grateful to have found The Egoscue Method.
