My pain began about three months prior to receiving the Astym treatment. I had limited mobility in my right elbow and sharp pains as well. After a few months, I sought treatment from a chiropractor. Unfortunately this did not relieve my pain. My chiropractor referred...
About 12 years ago I damaged my right elbow. Three surgeries later I still cannot fully straighten or extend my right arm. I have learned to live with this (as well as my arthritis) but this means there is a great deal of stress placed...
