As a competitive triathlete and black belt martial artist in Tae Kwon Do for over 10 years, a sharp pain suddenly sidelined me in my right hip. The pain was so severe; I was physically unable to do the exercises I so much enjoyed. In fact, I could barely walk. For over 4 years, I sought help through an acupuncturist, a deep tissue masseuse, yoga, and a friend that was a chiropractor. Nothing helped. I had accepted that I would never run or do martial arts again, and that I would most likely live with pain. One day at my gym in ew York City, I met Dr Sid. I explained to him that I had been plagued with constant pain and soreness in my right hip for years and was unable to find any relief. I told him, I just wanted to walk without pain. Seconds later, Dr Sid had me on my side, working his magic on the area of my hip with his thumb that never seemed to get better. "I can feel the knot," he said as he explained that it was probably soft tissue damage but he would need to take an X-ray to make sure. I instantly felt some pain relief and greater mobility in my hip after getting off the table. Still somewhat skeptical, I had to give Dr. Sid a chance to see if he could take away the pain permanently. Dr Sid did an extensive examination, including hip and back X-rays and a foot scan that showed how flat footed I was, and that I was in need of orthotics. Instantly, we began treatment, which included soft tissue treatment and chiropractic adjustments specific to my hip problem. After three treatments, I felt better than I had in years. About 60% of my hip pain was gone. I also ordered orthotics through Dr. Sid, which I wear, everyday. After 8 visits, 90% of my pain is gone and I now walk through the streets of Manhattan with a little spring in my step that has been missing for years. I feel great!!! I can do yoga and ride the stationary bike for an hour without any pain or soreness. Dr. Sid said when he first met me that he would have me running again. Something I could never imagine doing again is now something I am really looking forward to doing again. If anyone would ask me to recomend chiropractor Dr. Sid would be 1st on my list. Thanks Dr. Sid
