I have been very active for over 35 years and almost always had tendonitis somewhere – tennis elbow, golfers’ elbow, rotator cuff, plantar fasciitis, shin splints, hip bursitis, IT band syndrome. I spent years getting cortisone shots and going to orthopedists and physical therapists. I had surgery on my elbow in the 1990’s and on my left rotator cuff in 2010. My right rotator cuff was also sore, but I did not want to go through another surgery. The inflammation in my right rotator cuff finally eased after several months of stretching and rest. In 2023 I was suffering from severe piriformis pain when a physical therapist recommended Bob Tricomi. After my first treatment, I was still bruised a week later, but it was a good pain. I started to feel so much better.
I began to get treatments every 2 to 4 weeks, focusing mostly on my hips, IT band and piriformis. I have gone almost 2 years without any tendonitis until I hurt my right rotator cuff from too many downward facing dogs. Bob treated my right rotator cuff on a Saturday. I was bruised and sore for 3 days, but by the fourth day the pain was 99% gone! My rotator cuff fixed in only 3 days! The pain from surgery was so much worse than the pain from my inflamed rotator cuff. I couldn’t lift my arm past my shoulder for 6 months after surgery and Bob fixed it in 3 days!
I will continue to see Bob every 2 or 3 weeks. Once the pain from an injury is gone, the treatments are very relaxing and pleasurable and really keep me fluid and moving well
