Retreats
Dr. Kelli Pearson and Mike Sacco teach weekend retreats for people learning to manage chronic lower back pain, given their pain has continued despite best attempts at traditional treatment which have included medication, surgery, manipulation, physical therapy and massage.
Mike suffered a severe injury, while the pedestrian in a high speed automobile impact. He was told that that he would not walk, and would likely loose his leg. Mike “dug down” and learned many valuable tools as it relates to recovery, and today participates in triathalons, often with better times than those run before the injury... all the while using his own two legs. Dr. Kelli has been passionate about findings ways for patients to gain improvement, despite their certainty there is little or no hope. Together Mike and Kelli provide real opportunities for people who want to see life get better.
The class includes tips of stress management tools that work, information on nutrition that has commonly gone missing for patients, with a strong focus on the why’s and how’s of stretching and reasonable exercise. (Read more)
