I first developed pain in my right upper trap,
over nine months ago from sleeping on a poor
hotel mattress. I thought it would simply go away
as I have had some minor tightness and spasms
over the years. I tried massage, chiropractic
care, and every mineral ointment, but they only
gave me temporary relief. My work schedule
requires a lot of travel. Often I am only home on
the weekend, so it is hard to take time away for
doctor appointments.  I am so glad someone
recommended Virtual PT! I can now turn my head
when reversing out of the driveway! I highly
recommend VPT, not only for the convenience but
also the skill level of their specialists! Don.

Don has had pain and loss of neck mobility for so
long that he did not even realize that he could
no longer look up or to the right. Both of these
motions were not only severely limited but also
caused significant pain.  The mechanical
assessment revealed that he had a directional
preference for right rotation. This movement
improved not only his pain level but also his
ability to move his head again. Our main focus is
to educate and empower the patient as to what
caused the mechanical problem and how he could
easily eliminate his symptoms.  We then followed
up with him to assure that he was progressing and
was able to achieve recovery of function. Megan
