Luci Tucci - Constant neck and shoulder pain eliminated by Rothbart Proprioceptive Therapy"About 2 1/2 years ago, I heard Professor Rothbart speak about his research and work using Rothbart Proprioceptive Insoles. I was impressed by all that he said, but although I had had chronic pain in my neck and down my arm for over 20 years, I did not place myself in the same category as his pain patients. After all, my pain started with a car accident, so I figured there was not much to do but manage it with decades of chiropractic, massage, occasional hot thermal baths and yoga.
As my neck and shoulder pain continued, I chalked it up to stress and hovering over my computer. I also had a sciatic nerve problem which went up my entire right leg for 15 years and was aggravated by driving. I had a bite problem which I thought my dentist had corrected. I also had a bunion operation.
Despite all these problems, the patients Professor Rothbart treated seemed entirely worse off than me, as my pain never prevented me from doing anything: it was something I lived with and would live with for the rest of my life (or so I thought).
After reading his book, Forever Free From Chronic Pain, I started to wonder if perhaps I might be one of the people who have a Rothbarts Foot and that my car accident and computer posture might have just been catalysts that brought on my pain sooner. Thinking there might be a glimmer of hope for a pain free life, I made an appointment.
After running numerous tests, I received the correct insole prescription. From the moment I had Rothbart's insoles under my feet, my pain lifted - gone – instantly. It was the first time in nearly a quarter of a century that I did not feel gripped by that burning sensation and I felt no pressure from my sciatic nerve.
After a few weeks, I could finally sleep on my side again and turn my head with ease. I was no longer clenching my teeth or keeping my face taught. My muscles felt looser. My sciatica was barely noticeable and it feels so good to move.
Professor Rothbart told me that I would forget about how much pain I had been in...I didn't believe him - after all, who could forget what seemed a lifetime of pain? But the pain release was almost instantaneous. The constant 'off the charts' pain that I had for so long, now seems like a distant memory."
