He was facing life long permanent disability. He tried 9 months of intense physiotherapy with no results In 3 hours I was able to get him standing up straight and in 6 hours I was able to get him pain free and fully functional again, restoring quality of life and allowing him to get back to work to be able to provide for his family. He is enjoying life pain free to this very day.
