Astoria Physical Therapy

I injured my lower back 3 years ago-and have been in pain ever since- pain pills just are not my thing- I came here in pain on a scale of 1-10 about a 4 at the least and a 7-8 at most- I have a sacrolic joint that goes out alot and have been given exercises to do. Prior to therapy I could not lay on the floor-Period! Now in doing my exercises in Neutral pos, I can actually lay on the floor doing my exercises- and No Pain! I can get up and continue my daily living. And no pain 20-30 min later! The exercises are so easy and to me I am so grateful. My back pain has decreased. This is helpful not and in my life long future. Thanks for giving my life back! more

I came to Astoria Physical Therapy to receive treatment for a knee injury. At the time I started treatment it had been 2 yrs since the injury and I still didn't have full movement in my knee. I had pain when climbing stairs, walking long distances and walking on uneven ground. The therapists gave me a regimen of exercises to perform including stretching exercises and stair exercises. I worked on these exercises at home twice a day. Additionally I was shown a stretching exercise that I do daily to help keep my spine aligned. After just a few weeks of these stretches and exercises. I have been climbing stairs with no pain and walking for 2-3 miles at a time. I will continue the stretches and exercises to provide additional strength for my knee. more
