Courses Followed: Hip Pain Solution
I used to have a very active lifestyle…kickboxing, hiking, rappelling, etc., but I had a serious MVA many years ago (multiple pelvic fractures, fractured sacrum, dislocated SI joint), and the professional consensus is that I never actually healed but have instead been compensating for a very long time. The HPS program has helped a TON. I’m still working on many areas of dysfunction due to years of damaging compensatory patterns that have affected the entire left side of my body. BTW, your shoulder program really helped the shoulder on that side!!!! Better than any PT I had gone to for shoulder rehab! I’m probably going to try your other programs, too, because I really hope to rappel the waterfalls again in CO in September!!!!!!
I really appreciate the program’s approach to addressing the foundational elements of dysfunction. I think that working on these areas, along with my local PT intervention, is helping me slowly regain some mobility. I wish I would have known about these concepts sooner. I’ve adhered to the “No pain, no gain” mantra for decades and pretty much drove myself into the ground by continuing to kickbox and hike my way through the pain. Coach E says in one of the videos (which could be any of his YouTube videos as I have an entire library of them) that if you don’t work on the foundation, it’s stupid to just keep working out because it just creates damage. Yep, that’s me.
I wish I would have found the program sooner. It would have saved me a lot of time and money as I hit my insurance max on PT visits and had to pay almost $1,600 out of pocket for PT.
