Definitely Released Our Pain with a Touch

February 14, 2012 by Linda Folk

My husband and I were lucky enough to have Jim Krupar referred to us by my husband's orthopedic surgeon two years ago. What a godsend. My husband had to have a hip replacement and Jim was there to aid in his recovery. Jim not only worked on his hip pain and scar treatment, he also found and released pain in other areas unassociated with the actual surgery. Pain in the back, shoulders and knees was released with a touch here and a touch there. My husband is a skeptic so when he raved about Jim, I had him work on my back and shoulders. After two "touch treatments", I was amazed that the pain in my scapula(that I had lived with all my life) was gone. Jim said our bodies are like computers that need to be re-booted and he was right. We have referred him to several others and they are all so happy we did. Thank you, Jim.

How My Pain Was Swept Away

February 14, 2012 by Wendy J.

I am a 17 year old girl with Stickler Syndrome. I have enlarged and loose joints that are very painful. I have tried several different anti-inflammatory medications, steroids, cortisone injections, heat, ice, and braces all with little or no results. My physical medicine doctor suggested I go back to the physical therapist for a few visits. (I had had physical therapy a few years ago to help with stretching exercises.)
When I got to Ohio Health outpatient physical therapy, I really didn’t think the therapy would help, but I couldn’t have been more wrong. At first when Jim Krupar, the therapist, felt the pain over my body, I had no idea how much I really had. Then Jim started to do some odd things with my head and other places throughout my body. It seemed as if only 5 minutes had gone by when he told me to sit up. When I did, I was shocked. I felt like I had just woken up from a long and good night’s sleep … I have not slept in such a long time … My pain was gone … ALL of it was gone … the first thing that came to me was wow this is what all the ohter people who don’t have pain feel like … it was amazing. It lasted for a while but it slowly came back … so when I came to see Jim again I thought it would feel the same … but I felt better! He did a few new things and poof! I felt even better! It was like I was not even on the ground … it was so heavenly … when I put my feet on the ground it was like I was as light as a feather … And what made all this better is that now it is lasting much longer … my pain is slowly going away … without drugs or anything … if all the surgeries I had gave me these results I would want to do them everyday! … but I did not need any of that to feel better … Jim can use my own body to make my pain go away … and that in itself is amazing … for anyone who is thinking of tryng this … DO IT! IT WILL BE THE BEST THING EVER! AND YOU WILL GET THE RESULTS YOU WANT WITHOUT DRUGS OR SURGERIES! IT ROCKS!!

The PRRT Worked!

February 14, 2012 by Linda D.

I first started physical therapy with Jim to get relief from a rigt hip and knee problem I had from a car accident in March. I was very limited in my mobility. Some days the pain was as high as a 12 on a scale of 1 to 10! I just wanted to ffeel better. Jim suggested PRRT and explained it to me. He also gave me a web site to research. I wanted to get back to my normal activity level and was willing to try just about anything. The PRRT worked! It is quite amazing to feel so much relief from such simple techniques. The techniques were not painful at all. I feel better and have so much more energy. I am not back to being 100% yet, but I feel confident that I will soon reach my goals. I also have a much improved range of motion on my right shoulder that has a 5mm tear in the rotator cuff and tendon. An added bonus from the PRRT! I would highly recommen PRRT to anyone who has not seen improvement in their condition.

I Saw Immediate Results

February 14, 2012 by Ray M.

I was in a car accident almost two years ago and injured my neck and left shoulder. I was hit from behind by a car going over 40 mph. I had severe shoulder and neck pain. I did the traditional physical therapy and pain killers immediately following the accident for approximately six weeks and followed up with several “prescription” doctors who told me I would be fine in a couple months. Unfortunately, this was not the case.
Then last April I started to have severe pain in both my hips and sought help from a couple specialists who could not diagnose me but put me on several pain killers and muscle relaxers. By this point, I was on a cocktail mixture of 6-7 different prescriptions that I was taking on a daily basis.
I had been through nine different doctors with the same disappointing outcome. “Try this prescription and come back in two weeks”. After several visits I was told there was nothing else they could do for me.
I finally came across Jim Krupar’s Progressive Physical Therapy, after suffering for 1 ½ years with constant headaches, neck, shoulder and hip pain, depression, and not being able to sleep or exercise.
At first, I was somewhat skeptical, but when you are in pain you will try anything. I saw immediate results, my headaches are less severe and frequent, my shoulder is almost pain free and I am able to sleep through the night. I feel better and now have the energy to exercise while reducing my medicine to 1-2 prescriptions a day! Best of all, Jim has provided me with hope. When others told me I would not get any better and “I had to toughen up and deal with the pain”, Jim came along and provided me with a roadmap to well being, reduced stress and pain free living.
Jim’s holistic approach is amazing! He utilizes your entire body to make you feel better. I have gotten far better results with PRRT than any drug I have taken. This is the best I have felt in over a year!
I normally do not promote or endorse any products or services, but if you are in pain I highly recommend trying PRRT. I can honestly say, Jim has changed my life for the better.

No More Pain in My Kneecap

February 14, 2012 by Angela H.

Several months after fracturing my kneecap, I was finally able to jog without significant pain. However, a few weeks after starting a running program, I developed a bursitis below my kneecap. Because of the significant pain and the continued weakness of my leg, I was given a prescription for physical therapy. I saw Jim 2 weeks after my injury, and at the time was taking 800 mg of Motrin three to four times daily. Motrin and ice would help somewhat, but I still had significant swelling and pain by the through most of my workday. Jim did a full assessment and a few manipulations that first day. I could feel the tightness in my leg release very quickly. By the next day, I had considerably less pain, and didn’t need any Motrin. By the next appointment, which was the following week, I had absolutely no pain in my kneecap or the area with the bursitis. The swelling was also gone. I am now working with Jim on strengthening those muscles. I was astonished by how quickly I responded to a few very simple maneuvers. I was expecting to have to live with aches and arthritis pain, not the results that I achieved so quickly. More physical therapists should learn this technique.
