One of the ways that I used to treat my Achilles tendon injury was visiting Meilus Precision Therapy in Sarasota, FL. I wrote a blog back in January about my initial visit to the Meilus clinic. This entry is a follow-up discussing how I repaired my injury and got back to training.
Dave Wallwork, the clinical director, helped me mend the muscles and tendons in my lower extremities. This revolutionary “robotic arm” is able to go deep in the muscle tissue without pain. The therapy takes shortened, hard muscles and lengthens them.
Here is a photo of Dave Wallwork and I before our last session:
Here is a photo of the robot on my Achilles tendon as I was seeking to break up any adhesions that occurred from my injury:
For better performance and quicker recovery, please visit Dave Wallwork’s website at www.sarasotameilustherapy.com for more information. The following video shows how the robotic arm pressed on my leg and Achilles tendon, but it is also works wonders on the lengthening the muscles around the hips, shoulders, and back.
Next week I will again share one of my new training exercises…until then safe travels.
It is no coincidence that the finest athletes in the world choose chiropractic. They know something that many others still don’t… chiropractic works!
