Lower back pain now in check! This is where you need to be if you're in pain or discomfort and don't know where to turn. I have struggled with lower back pain since 2015. I'm currently 37 years old, two young to be out of work for weeks, or months and losing money and my confidence in everything I do from living an active lifestyle, being a father and partner, and being unable to handle simple everyday tasks. The stress from all that is far too much to be dealing with. It was recommended I give CJ a try by a friend of mine who said she was "cured". At this point I was ready to try anything, and I'm very glad It was CJ PT and Pilates. If you have lower back pain or any other condition, this is the place you need to be. Don't expect these specialists to just let you off the hook, although they are extremely nice and over the top helpful, they will hold you accountable...because you need to hold yourself accountable if you want to succeed. You have to be willing to put in the work. There are no quick fixes as you age, so you've got to play the long game. And this is what I've gathered. It truly is what I've learned here that I value the most. Not the exercises, although they are obviously extremely key, but it's the education to understand why I have the condition I do, what makes it flare up, and why the exercises I am doing work time and time again when I feel something just isn't right. And then there's the continuation of maintaining my body in the specific areas to keep me on the right path. Before I would ignore the early signs until it was too late and I'm on the ground with excruciating pain and back spasms following weeks in bed, unable to do anything. Now I know the slightest trigger, and the exercises I must perform in order to feel better, it's truly amazing.Now I am back to work and life and feeling confident again. Just can't thank everyone at CJ Physical Therapy and Pilates enough. All such pleasant people to work with from the moment you walk in.

In July of 2021, unfortunately, I had to have an L4 laminectomy.  Things went great for a while, but approximately three years following surgery, I started experiencing chronic back pain.   I went through all the standard medical procedures of muscle relaxers, anti-inflammatories, epidoral steroid injections, ablation injections, and lots of traditional physical therapy.  I even tried acupuncture, as recommended by an orthopedic doctor.  Nothing seemed to provide much relief.  After a frustrating and somewhat painful attempt to play golf, a friend of mine told me about an article he read in the local paper written by Dr Carrie Jose, at CJ Physical Therapy, about chronic back pain.   I decided to call CJ and see what it was about.   Skeptical as I was, I was willing to do just about anything to alleviate the pain.  It wasn't long after I started with the prescribed program my pain was much less.  I've continued working with Drs Holly, Jill, and Todd and have been able to do many of the activities I love doing without pain.  In summary I will say that most of the PT I've done in the past 4 years has been good, but very generic, primarily focused on developing core strength.  At CJ the approach was very different.  The therapists examined and documented my condition through motion and weekly feedback.  They continued to tweak the prescribed stretching and movement exercises to address the areas of my spine and hips that were the potential source of my lower back pain.  The PT and regenerative therapy has worked well for me.  I'm way more active again and I'm able to do the things I love doing.   I would highly recommend anyone else that's experienced something similar to give this program a try!

CJPT was fantastic, I cannot recommend them enough! I screwed my neck up and had a couple weeks before leaving on a big trip and they were able to fit me in and get me all fixed up. Holly was wonderful to work with and I am so appreciative for her help so I could fully function on my trip. The front desk staff were so helpful as well, thank you CJPT!
