"MRI revealed a Herniated/Degenerative L4/L5 Disc"

“I first started getting painful electric shocks that went down my right leg that would last a few seconds. An MRI revealed a herniated/degenerative L4/L5 disc. I had stopped working out at my crossfit gym but my crossfit coach introduced me to Lynn Grimm who evaluated my range of motion and the movements that triggered the sciatica down my right leg. Lynn identified issues with my posture and showed me how to sit correctly. She tailored a regimen of flexion to counteract the pressures causing the leg pain. I followed the regimen for 6 weeks and I have been gradually able to return to crossfit without the pain going down my right leg. I am now pain free.”

" I came in to see Lynn after a fall that resulted in some significant neck pain.  I was having a hard time focusing through the pain & it was effecting my daily life in a significant way.  I had a hard time enjoying time with friends & family.  After I started seeing Lynn I noticed immediate changes.  To make things even better Lynn is an excellent teacher so that I felt (& still feel) that I know what to do to help myself be painfree."

"I Almost Can't Believe It"

“I came to PT with an injury sustained from Aikido. I came the first time 4 weeks past a hamstring tear and a hip sprain. I came because my back was starting to hurt and it felt like an electric shock when I would move certain ways. I could not drive comfortably, I could no longer run or bike and my everyday activities like dressing and getting in and out of the car were difficult. After my first session I was so much better. I could feel the pain dispense. Mrs. Grimm gave me exercises to do at home and explained to me the reasons behind the exercises. I have had 3 sessions. I can drive without pain I have almost my full extension back. I am even pain free when I leave her office. I almost can’t believe it.” – Laura W.    4/13/2017

"I Felt Comprehensively Assessed, Listened To and Cared For"

“I first came across Lynn through a presentation she made at the gym I work out at CrossFit Algiers.  It was billed as a Back Seminar, but I didn’t go because I had current back pain.  See I’m a Nurse and  Licensed Massage Therapist I went thinking I would come out with some knowledge that help me be more therapeutic in ways to address back issues with my clients. During the presentation Lynn asked a simple question to the audience.  “How many visits should we expect to have before getting out of pain?” This question really struck me as a Nurse for 22 years and a Licensed Massage Therapist for 10  (because I do know that if we are honest, we as health care providers are not always able to resolve pain issues effectively), but her answer blew my mind.  The answer she gave was 1.  So as someone who had Meniscus Repair Surgery a year ago, then begin experiencing similar feelings of swelling in my knee about two weeks after her presentation, I immedia...
