Ernesto is a 25 year veteran, currently on reserve. In addition to 25 years of being an army aviator, he lives a very active lifestyle. Regularly he weight trains, runs, bikes, plays softball and even hunts. When given the opportunity he’ll coach his kids in a sport, take his family on a hike, to the park or on a new adventure all itself.
Since 2005 he has struggled to maintain this active lifestyle, work, be a providing husband and father all due to debilitating chronic low back pain. From broken bones and shoulder separations to multiple herniated discs, Ernesto has been ridden hard and put away wet. Seeking help he started treatment at Huebner Chiropractic. Taking into consideration Ernesto was eager to get back to his regular routine, Dr. Earley, his treating chiropractor recommend ARPwave neuro therapy as part of his treatment.

 

Through the service, sports, hobbies and various training programs, Ernesto’s had his fair share of “challenges”. Immediately into his treatment, he found out ARPwave neuro therapy was a challenge like he had never experienced before. Strong willed and determined Ernesto pushed himself through the challenge and came out victorious.

He’s happy to report he’s not only back to being able to move, sleep, train and lives pain free but he’s been able to push the limits of his body far past what he thought was possible. Almost immediately he noticed, a pace he once struggled to maintain on the treadmill, he now finds he has to turn up the speed significantly. The low back pain that once gloomed over him like a dark cloud for 13 years was no longer present. Days are brighter and life is better.

 

Since completing his ARPwave therapy for his low back pain, Ernesto has continued with ARPwave neuro therapy. Achieving new goals within therapy, at the gym and the work place. Over his time spent here at Neuro Sports Performance and Rehab, Ernesto has established a great friendship and bond with the owner Paul Coleman. Come to find out they shared a great deal in common.

ARPwave Heals Chronic Hip Pain

 

One evening in 2010, Megan and her mother were driving home full of excitement. Megan sat in the passenger seat and cradled in her arms was an eight week old puppy they had just adopted. She was eager to get home and show her new best friend their backyard, bed, toys and all. As the car went into a turn, an oncoming driver crossed over into their lane, slamming into the side of the car and sending the car into a ditch until it would finally come to rest, upside down.  After nearly four hours, the fire department was able to get both of the girls and their puppy out safely, but not without injury. Megan sustained a hip injury and her mother tore her rotator cuff. For Megan, the next 6 years would consist of struggling to overcome the injury sustained from this wreck.

This injury plagued her, causing her to stop running in track, playing softball, swimming and participating in everything else a high school athlete does! It didn’t just stop at Megan’s extracurricular activities, sitting at her desk in school, sleeping and even studying became frustrating and always uncomfortable and painful. Not a day passed that the pain didn’t bother her. The pain would sometimes be so bad that it would make her nauseated and feel faint. As a 16 year old girl, she was very limited. She couldn’t keep up with her friends anymore. If they wanted to walk around the mall Megan would have to stop a take breaks or even sit down to rest for a while due to the pain. Even the simple task of seeing a movie was daunting. She couldn’t stand the pain of sitting the entirety of the movie either. She found herself constantly taking pain relievers to try to get through her days.

Following her accident, she almost immediately started chiropractic care, massage and physical therapy. After initially seeing some benefits and progress things appeared optimistic. Over the course of 5 years Megan dedicated herself to putting in the time and work that was required to get better. She continued to make some progress but the injury continued to plague her life relentlessly. The progress Megan once saw improving each week, had plateaued. Out of options, an orthopedic surgeon recommended and experimental hip surgery. With her progress coming to a halt with the previous treatments she elected to undergo surgery.

She wouldn’t be out of the previous therapies for very long. After her hip surgery, she once again started back up with physical therapy, massage therapy and chiropractic care. For almost a moment there was a glimmer of hope but a few months following her surgery, her symptoms reappeared but WORSE. She was prescribed more pain killers and more physical therapy. All through her pain never stopped Megan’s life kept going and she began college on crutches and was still struggling with hip pain at the age of 18.

It wouldn’t be until 2 years post-surgery where her path would cross with Neuro Sports’ very own Travis Boyd in college at UTSA. Travis started working for NSP&R and quickly saw what possible benefits ARPwave neuro therapy could provide Megan. After undergoing a consult and treatment the optimism reappeared in Megan. Once again she had to dedicate her herself to putting in the time and work to get better. Over the course of her treatment, her pain lessened tremendously. The pain that used to be constantly present and daunting now became minimal and infrequent. She found herself able to get through and an entire day of class or work a majority of the time entirely pain free!

As she progressed in her ARPwave neuro therapy, her confidence grew. A pain free walk through the neighborhood with her dog seemed like a tremendous success but she didn’t stop there. She turned that walk into a run and slowly began incorporating exercise back into her lifestyle. After what seemed like nearly forever, Megan finally started to feel normal again.

ARPwave Treatments to Game Winning Touchdowns!

 

Mid-season injuries can be detrimental to athletes. A serious injury can end a season in an instant. Less severe injuries can keep an athlete out for weeks to months and linger with them for the remainder of the season, taking a toll on their performance.

 

Michelle plays Ladies Tackle Football for the Austin Acoustic in the Legends League and in another league for the Texas Legacy. She’s a talented running back and wide receiver for both teams. Towards the end of Michelle’s season, she suffered a MCL sprain to her right knee and a bone bruise to her ankle. With her teams in the hunt for playoffs and ultimately the championship, she had zero time to spare. Her teams needed her back out on the field as soon as possible, due to playoffs being just around the corner. After working with the team’s trainer, she wasn’t getting the results at the rate she needed them. She had to find another solution.

 

 

Immediately after starting her ARPwave therapy, Michelle started to see the results she had been looking for. After just three treatments, her pain was eliminated entirely from her leg. Following a few more treatments, she was able to get back into the gym for training and fully participate in football practice. Michelle got the results she and her team desperately needed. It showed in full force her first game back in the Western Conference Championship for the Legends League. Michelle and the Austin Acoustic found themselves trailing behind with time running out. The quarterback dropped back and delivered a game-winning touchdown to Michelle! Clinching a chance at the title in the Legends Cup Championship against the undefeated Chicago Bliss. That’s one heck of a way to make a return back from an injury and just in time. Michelle and her team would go on to lose a hard fought game 19-28 in the championship game but she was able to give it her best with no limitations from her prior injuries.

 

 

The story doesn’t stop there. Michelle would go on to lead her Texas Legacy team through the playoffs and to their fifth championship! Congratulations on your tremendous success Michelle!!

SHATTERING SKEPTICISM: Hip Surgery Recovery Back on Track Thanks to ARPwave

 

In the last 10 years our understanding and ability to treat hip injuries has grown exponentially. With new state of the art surgical and rehabilitation equipment, we have been able to return people to their sports and lives in ways we could not have imagined in the past.

 

Christian was an extremely active individual. He weight trained, played basketball and danced weekly. During a personal training session at the gym in 2016, he suffered an extremely painful hip injury. After many miss-diagnosis, he finally discovered he had torn his labrum in his left hip. The hip labrum has many important functions, including shock absorption, joint lubrication, pressure distribution, and aiding in stability. Damage to the labrum results in all of these becoming compromised. Following his diagnosis Christian underwent orthoscopic surgery to repair his torn labrum.

 

Eager to get back to his active lifestyle Christian began his rehabilitation process with confidence. But even after “graduating” from traditional physical therapy, he wasn’t back to his normal capabilities. His labrum may now be structurally healed but his range of motion was extremely limited, forcing his body to develop compensations around movements and positions daily. In addition, his muscles were still extremely weak and imbalanced.

 

Dissatisfied with his current status he went on to try massage therapy, chiropractic care, and Airrosti. Christian had confidence in these treatment styles to return him to his normal active life. But still, they all fell short in providing him the results he wanted.  It almost seemed impossible at times that he would ever get back to doing the things he loved but he continued to seek out other possible answers. Scrolling through the web he came across a “Free Consultation” for ARPwave neuro therapy with Neuro Sports Performance and Rehab. So once again Christian found himself in another consultation. He was a bit skeptical of this cutting edge treatment alternative due to the history with previous treatments.

 

After undergoing an examination and a single ARPwave treatment his skepticism was shattered. The results he received from just that one treatment sparked hope again for Christian. “I was convinced I was going into something really, really, REALLY beneficial” he goes on the state.

 

Upon completing his ARPwave therapy Christian has completely eliminated his pain and regained his mobility. He is finally back in the gym training, playing basketball with his buddies and on track to getting back into his normal lifestyle. Listen to his inspiring testimonial in the video above.

When No One Could Help, ARPwave ANSWERED.

Christian, a talented baseball player was suffering from debilitating knee pain that was having a detrimental effect on his game. He and his family looked for help and answers from some of THE best sport medicine clinics in the San Antonio area. After two years of consultations, examinations, x-rays and MRIs Christian and his family still didn’t have an answer nor a solution to treat his knee pain. Two years of constant pain and irritation on and off the field took a significant toll on his baseball game and athleticism. For Christian baseball was everything. He gave it his all and it even got him a scholarship with Trinidad State College in Colorado. This is such an accomplishment for a young player but unfortunately, they had to pull their offer due to his recent injuries and struggling game because of it.

 

Luckily Christian found himself here at Neuro Sports Performance and Rehab. On his first appointment, we were able to provide the origin of the problem and a solution on how to treat it using the ARPwave. Less than halfway through his neuro therapy program he was completely pain free and regained full mobility and usage. Since Christian has completed his ARPwave therapy he’s back on the field training, going to showcases and personal workouts in hopes to be playing baseball for a college this upcoming season. Christian, his family and the team at Neuro Sports Performance have high hopes for him to gain a new scholarship now that he is pain free thanks to ARPwave!

Overcoming Sports Injuries: The Quickest Way Back Onto The Field

An injury to an athlete is not only detrimental physically but also neurologically. Kaitlyn, a college soccer player tore her ACL in the middle of the season, bringing an end to hers. After undergoing knee surgery, as a strong and determined athlete, she sought to get back on to the field and training as soon as possible.

 

The current treatment model for sports injuries has athletes undergo an extensive rehab process that can last a few weeks with minor injuries or up to a year with more serious injuries like an ACL tear or Tommy John Surgery. ARPwave has broken this current model. Healing minor injuries in a matter of minutes or days and more serious injuries like an ACL tear in 7 weeks!

 

How? Injuries in the body come from a loss of neurological function, NOT physiological function in the case of non-contact injuries. If you treat an injury or surgery with rehab from a neurological standpoint, then your recovery time is vastly accelerated with better results. Traditional rehab will do absolutely nothing to address where the ACL tear came from because they will only be treating the physiological component of where the problem ended. Until the origin of where the ACL tear came from is treated, no amount of rest, ice, physical therapy or strength training is going to give you long term results; neither will it get you back in an expedited time frame.

 

Kaitlyn is a perfect example of this accelerated process. After she completed her 7 week ACL rehabilitation protocol with ARPwave therapy and additional strength training with Neuro Sports she’s back to training, exercising at the gym and running in just 3 short months! Whereas her friend “is 5 months down the road into doing traditional therapy and just now starting to run”. Listen to her the entire journey and testimonial through the ARPwave Rapid Rehab processes here at Neuro Sports Performance & Rehab bellow.
