Severe Knee Injury, Neck Pain

(Larry, see RS #1 9/9/00,#261 9/19/09 PI 8/31/99 from Newport Beach, CA) – This former Wimbledon contender consulted several doctors including orthopedic surgeons who recommended knee replacement surgery for a severe knee injury from tennis. He could not play tennis for a year, went to physical therapy for strengthening exercises, had his knees drained four times (which continued swelling each time), had cortisone injections, and was put on medication, all to no avail. After consulting Dr. Tong, he was back on the tennis court in a matter of weeks. In the past, Dr. Tong also treated Larry for a wrist and neck problem from an auto accident 25 years ago. His wrist bones fused, greatly decreasing mobility and his neck was in constant pain. With Dr. Tong’s treatments, he has gained flexibility in his wrist and has experienced an 85% improvement in his neck pain. Recently, Larry suffered from severe arm pain from tennis, which was 95% improved after one treatment. This allowed him to compete and win in a national tennis tournament in Arizona, something that he would not have been able to do with an injured arm. Dr. Tong has also treated Larry’s whole family with positive results.
