Dr.Ko Diagnostic Clinic: A thank you letter from America

Carolyn
Jamestown, NC (Aug, 1998)

"I want to take the time to Thank you once again for helping me last year with your wonderful treatment. Because of your treatment my life has changed, no more spending the day in my bed or on the sofa. My husband and son gave me approx 3 treatments a week for the first several months and then as my body started to come back in balance we do them as needed. After being on as many as 9 medications a day, I am happy to say I am off all of them. This past month I got my driver's license again after not driving for 5 years!"

"I am able to enjoy my love of gardening, walking on my treadmill, efinishing furniture and travelling. I always hoped I would find some treatment that would enable me to live with the horrific pain of CRPS, the Enrac treatments gave me more then I could ever have hoped for."

"Thank you for not only giving me my life back but most importantly giving me back to my family."

Dr.Ko Diagnostic Clinic: Sciatica

How Pregnant woman can cope with sciatica without drugs

31 year old pregnant woman felt pain from her waist to her lower left extremity. She could not sit or stand up for extended periods of time, and weakness in her lower legs made it difficult for her to walk. She was recommended by doctor to take bed rest and Enrac CMT. She is now walking normally, and has returned to work.

About 50% -70% of pregnant woman will suffer from lower back pain during their pregnancy. Pain due to sciatica nerve becomes worse during pregnancy. The pain gets worse because of the position of the baby which rests on the abdomen and the lower back of the mother's uterus. The main problem with sciatica nerve during pregnancy is the pain normally begins at the buttocks and starts to spread downwards through the back of the thighs reaching the calves and heels. Sciatica is often caused by damage to a disc leading to inflammation around the nerve or direct pressure from a prolapsed or "slipped" disc. In some cases, it may be due to compression from a ligament or bone.

Clinical case report
A 31 year old pregnant lady, did not have back pain or injury prior to her pregnancy. In fact, there was no discomfort or any abnormalities until week 21 of her pregnancy, when she felt a discomfort around the waistline, then all of a sudden the pain worsened and the numbing pain extended from her waist to her lower left extremity. She could not sit or stand up for extended periods of time, and weakness in her lower legs made it difficult for her to walk. The doctor told her the pain was caused by an acute sciatica nerve inflammation, and she was recommended to take rest and conservative physical therapy.
After she was discharged from the hospital, she decided to receive Enrac CMT. She came in for CMT about once a week, and the pain was greatly reduced (from 8+ to a 4 on VAS pain-level score), but she was still having a twitching pain in her left leg. She continued the treatments and was able to go back to work after 6 treatments in a span of 3 weeks and after a period of proper rest at home. Now she is 34 weeks pregnant, and besides some minor discomfort due to pregnancy, her waist and left side pain has been relieved, she is now walking normally, and has returned to work.
