"I experienced my first “triathlon related” injury while running up a steep hill. At first, I didn’t think it was going to be as severe as it later turned out to be. I did what I normally do when I “tweak “ something. I ice, massage and lay off it until I feel ready to resume training.
A week later, I tried running and could not even take one step. So, again, I followed the same routine of ice, massage and rest. Another week went by and again, I was in agony as I tried to take a step. This time I decided, I should go get some physical therapy. So, I went to 4 sessions of PT and still one month after I had incurred the injury, the pain in my calf had not subsided.
Racing season was fast approaching and I was starting to get worried! I was desperate! I went to Performance Chiropractic after one of the girls I coach insisted I go. Actually, she really kept raving about them.
The approach they used, Active Release Technique, was very different from the physical therapy I was getting and really seemed to penetrate the muscle in a deeper level. After 2 visits with Dr. Chris Barney, I was able to run. I could not believe it!
The staff at Performance Chiropractic is very warm and caring. You immediately feel you are in good hands when you walk through the front door!"
