Upon Beth's return to the States, she was faced with some bad news.  She was told she had arthritis in her knee that doctors said had a, "slim chance of ever getting back to a full range of motion."  After receiving a shot that brought her no relief and many doctors' visits, they told her surgery was the only further option for getting out of pain.  After much deliberation, Beth agreed to a partial knee replacement followed by physical therapy.  After all this, she was still not back to where she had hoped she would be with her activity level and daily life.

Enter the hero. Beth's Rheumatologist, who had saved her life from a life-threatening illness ten years prior, had one last recommendation before throwing in the towel on her knee. He advised Beth to read "Pain Free" by Pete Egoscue. After reading through the book and getting started with Egoscue, Beth asked her Rheumatologist, "Why didn't you tell me about this before? This is where I should be!" Beth celebrated her one-year anniversary as part of the Egoscue Family last month as well as her 72nd birthday. She is feeling terrific, has increased her range of motion, and is walking better than ever after years of pain and compensation.

Beth has taken on the challenge of taking control of her body with an understanding of how the exercises work for unique condition. Since day one, she has faithfully come into the clinic almost every day to do her menus (when not doing them at home), apart from her regular visits. She recommends the Egoscue Method to friends and family and is constantly setting new goals for herself as she surpasses the old ones. Beth's new goals are to get back to lap swimming and yoga, as well as walking even better than she is now. We applaud your hard work Beth as you are an inspiration for others. KEEP IT UP!
