How Falls Clinic Manages My Knee Pain — Without Pills or Surgery

I’ve battled back and knee issues for several years now. I often joke that, had I known I’d need these body parts for so long, I’d have taken better care of them. I recently made use of a solution to both problems that I have resisted for a long time.

I mainly had been managing the pain with handfuls of prescribed pills — that was my primary doctor's main solution. Back surgery and knee surgery have been off the table for me, mainly due to the fact that I’m still young, relatively speaking. And I know many individuals, some younger but most are older than me, who’ve gone under the knife. For a few, it worked. For others, not so much.

I met with Dr. David Cartwright at Falls Clinic about a new program he’s now using to help people suffering from knee pain.  We went through the evaluation process: x-rays, physical exam, one-on-one consultation. He determined that I was a good candidate and we began the process.

I’m not an easy person to sell. If something doesn’t work for me, I’m moving on. I am happy -no, I’m excited - to report that the program has not only helped, it has eliminated no less than 95 percent of my pain. My left knee was particularly problematic, as I tore my ACL years ago and have had to go through the process of having fluid drained. I swear, that doctor used a square needle for that one.  Ouch!

Dr. Cartwright did not need an invasive procedure to help me. Instead, we used a device that gradually decompresses the knee joint. That alone gave me some relieve. Then, Dr. Cartwright did some manual adjustments of my knees. I’m not going to lie, there is some discomfort during the process. But it’s momentary and the after-effect is incredible, to say the least.

I’ve been forced to avoid stairs, especially in the past year or so, due to the increase in the frequency of knee pain. Just last week, I used the stairs every day and didn’t have to slam any ibuprofen after the fact. For me, that’s huge.

I’ll give you another update on my progress in the near future, but right now, I can with total confidence tell you that Dr. David Cartwright’s knee program is working and working very well for me. And, like I said, I am not an easy person to sell. I have to believe in it. I’m sold and I am a believer.
