“In 2017 I suffered a severe low back injury at work as a firefighter. I initially dealt with therapists who prescribed exercises which aggrivated my pain and I realized that their approach was not helping me. My wife found Eric and booked me an appointment. Right from the start Eric took a much better approach […]
“After several years of severe lower back problems with no lasting solutions, I finally had an MRI and discovered that bone fragments had broken off my vertebrae. In my experience, the public medical system isn’t designed to help people fully understand the implications of issues like this—or how to manage them in everyday life while […]
“I have had a variety of back issues for most of my adult life. I am 57 and have always exercised regularly, but I was at the point where I was taking pain medication daily and regular physiotherapy wasn’t helping to relieve the pain. I was doing an exercise program designed for people with back […]
“Using the website, I then contacted Keith Isabey around New Year’s; he replied quickly, and after a lengthy phone call, I arranged for a consult in late January at his office in Vancouver. My wife accompanied me for the trip from our home in Victoria, and I must say, neither of us have never encountered […]
“It’s been a long while since I’ve had not just hope, but results. Experiencing is believing, and CIHP + Stuart McGill are the ones who have gifted me both and are guiding me back into the fullness of my life.” -Tyler Friedrich, Nebraska —————————— “I was a life long amateur athlete who never really trained. […]
“I am a 38-year-old husband, father, and physical therapist assistant at a hospital in Miami. Finding the Back Mechanic book and the McGill Method has had a profound effect on my life. CIHP in St. Louis, Missouri stood out for many reasons but mainly because there were not one but two Master Clinicians under the […]
“I am happy to report that as of this last visit the surgeon conceded that I have indeed completely avoided surgery. He no longer thinks surgery is the answer for me and told me to “keep doing what you are doing.” Despite this being a workers compensation situation he said to me that he did […]
“You will find professionalism at the core of every feature within Optimal Performance & Reconditioning. From the outset of my initial consultation, in each session, and throughout the evolution of my therapy, Marc provided a tailored program specific to my needs. This is not a cookie-cutter physical therapy business. Marc demonstrated an attention to detail […]
“I had been having frequent bouts of low back pain for years, and it got to the point early last spring that my regular chiropractor told me there was nothing more he could do for me. I went to my doctor and got x-rays. He said it was arthritis and degenerative disc disease—normal for my […]
“I had seen just about everyone within a 50 km radius for my back injury with no results over the course of 8 months. As a firefighter and someone who lives an active lifestyle, my backpain was debilitating physically and mentally. I was in a pretty bad place before I finally stumbled across Backfitpro online […]
“Just as the pandemic hit, a lingering back injury hit an all-time high and there was really no escaping it. I purchased “Gift of Injury” and read the entire thing cover to cover in three days. I soon connected with Brian for a consult/assessment and he immediately offered 1:1 support to dive into my specific […]
“I had read The Back Mechanic and worked through some exercises on my own, but I found that I needed a bit of extra help. I was very fortunate to find Dr. Camisa nearby. I had been to other physical therapists in the past without success. With something as complicated as back injury I felt […]
