My first visit to Active Spine and Joint Center was three weeks ago. I had a herniated disc and could barely walk due to the pain. I spoke with Dr. Hulme and he told me that he could help me. My objective was to avoid surgery and to use that only as a final option. Dr. Hulme worked with me and had me to the point where the pain was tolerable after the first visit. He provided me with a cadre of stretches and exercises to do on an hourly basis. As a result of the twice/wk office visits and the stretching he had me walking 1 mile a day within 1 week. Within 2 1/2 weeks, he had me walking 2 miles a day and within 3 1/2 weeks, I played 9 holes of golf for the first time in a month. Dr. Hulme is extremely knowledgeable about what will and won't work during the healing process. It has been highly worth the time and effort for me. If a person is willing to work hard along side Dr. Hulme and his treatments, I highly recommend using ASJC as a first option to alleviating spinal or joint pain.
