Ok, I may only be 14 but I’ve already put years on the baseball and football fields. I love the games, especially baseball, and everything’s been great until my knees started to hurt about a year ago. A Dr.’s visit revealed that I had something called Osgood-Shlatter. I know it’s a long name but it’s still shorter than “MY KNEES WON’T STOP HURTING AND THE DOCTOR SAID I HAVE TO DECREASE MY ACTIVITIES!!!”
This is not what I wanted to hear, and fortunately my parents didn’t want to accept that fate either. We were referred to Jarrett by friends of the family, so we had high hopes. And when he explained the reasoning behind his therapy plan, it just seemed to make sense. Jarrett not only worked on my tight muscles, but he taught me how to self treat and keep the progress going at home.
Even though Jarrett told us that it would take multiple sessions to resolve the painful knee syndrome, I got pain relief for days at a time after each session! That kept us optimistic, and within about 3 weeks I was feeling 90% better, which was amazing considering the pain I was in. And with the self treatment techniques he showed me and the understanding about how to maintain healthy muscles will help guide me the rest of my life.
Thanks Jarrett,
Jake B.
