Emotion is always a big part of job, you see people who are happy and who are hurting. Its always worth it though when you see them walk out at the end of the day better than when they first walked in. <br /><br />The practice has been growing so fast lately that we switched to using <a href="www.systems4pt.com/" rel="nofollow">emr software</a> to help everyone run more efficiently.muddywaters12strghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07258749899667114801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3572408221522984835.post-38870986980015938512011-04-10T07:36:57.856-06:002011-04-10T07:36:57.856-06:00Hi, JBatt: (Sorry I'm late in responding.

The physical therapist assistant gave me the pads so I could use them if I were to buy a TEMS, but I understand those to cost $200 or so ... much out of my budget.<br /><br />I would love to have one though just in case there's some major pain in the future. But I find with frequent stretching and Pilates, my pain is controlled for the most part.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05891536426446061750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3572408221522984835.post-43730762828872008302011-04-03T10:03:16.540-06:002011-04-03T10:03:16.540-06:00That's great to hear Beth.

'09 through March '10) for lower back pain. The orthopedic wasn't exactly sure what causes my sciatica, but noted a bulging disc, degentrative disc disease and a touch of arthritis.<br /><br />I LOVE the TENS. It was almost as good as a massage. It was combined with moist heat and some exercises the physical therapist assistant gave me (all either types of Pilates or inspired by Pilates).<br /><br />Pilates mostly consists of flexion and extension exercises, concentrating mostly on the body's core. I recommend it for anyone to help prevent injuries and improve muscle strength and flexibility. I continue to practice Pilates to help keep my back strong and my disc in place.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05891536426446061750noreply@blogger.com
