When I went to see Dr. Ryan, I had been having pains in my neck, shoulders, and traps for about a solid 5 years or so. I figured it had to do with form in the gym or from not taking care of myself. After receiving massage therapy and only feeling temporary relief, I went to see Dr. Ryan. After taking x-rays of my full spine and studying them, he came up with a treatment plan that worked for me.
Dr. Ryan was extremely flexible with my schedule and motivated me to stay on track with treatment not only in his office but with at home treatments as well. While in the office, Dr. Ryan gave me multiple exercises (that I would was able to do both there and at home) and he modified them as needed. Additionally, I had traction work. This is very unique and works on permanent correction, not just a temporary fix.
I worked my way up on traction for a few months. Within 2 weeks, my pain diminished massively. Within two months, I was in no pain and no longer restricted during activity. When I started, I had a reversed curve of the cervical spine and was in constant pain. By the end of my treatments with Dr. Ryan, I no longer had a reversal of the cervical spine; in fact, it was on the way to having a 42 degree curve like it should. I was no longer in pain either. Months later, I went to get re x-rayed and they found that the my results had improved even further (with the help of at home treatments).
Overall, I would highly recommend going to see Dr. Ryan at Straight Up Spine and Posture. One year later and I still feel great. He is so much fun to work with, provides quality care to his patients, and overall delivers great results!
