Myofascial pain is a widespread musculoskeletal pain condition, affecting up to 85% of adults in their lifetime. Myofascial pain arises from specific areas of tightness within our skeletal muscle and fascia, called trigger points. Trigger points are highly sensitive areas that are painful when compressed. They can also mimic nerve-related disorders with pain that radiates, weakness, and other abnormal sensations.
Here at Thrivability Medical, we understand the frustrations faced by individuals with myofascial pain syndrome. We've developed an innovative treatment approach using ultrasound guidance that targets and disrupts the underlying trigger points responsible for myofascial pain. By releasing adhesions and inactivating the source of pain, our treatment offers immediate relief and significantly improves patient outcomes.
I’m 39 years old. I came to Dr Row in terrible pain for almost 8.5 years, with a long list of recommended treatments that hadn’t worked. I also had to wear a cervical collar about 75% of the time, which was embarrassing. This all changed when I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Hannah Row, who listened to my situation and devised a treatment plan specific to my needs. Having seen probably 20 different doctors over the prior 8.5 years, I can truly say Dr. Row was the first person to look at my situation and say, “I am confident I can treat this and here is how.”
She got to business right away, through a combination of trigger point injections and physical therapy. I’ll admit I was skeptical at first, because I’d already experienced both treatments separately, but Dr. Row was able to explain how her protocol would produce a different result. Ultimately the inflammation had to be addressed before the PT was even possible, and Dr. Row did this with zero narcotics or additional pills. After about three months of treatment I was a new man, with a new lease on life. The cervical collar was all but gone, and I was able to start tapering back the anti-inflammatories I’d taken for years. This was an incredible transformation, and really was like getting my life back.
Fast forward 2.5 years and the exact same treatments are just as effective today as they were in the beginning, but the difference is my average pain level went from roughly a seven to a three… and a three is very livable. I really don’t know where I would be without Dr. Row, and I’m so incredibly thankful for her confidence and out of the box thinking. If you are looking to have your pain managed by someone that truly cares, your search is complete.
“One of the best doctors I’ve ever been to. She explained everything in detail, was very thorough and caring. I really appreciate her multi-modality, holistic approach to my neck pain.”
“From our first appointment together, I’ve been highly impressed with Dr Row’s efficiency and thoroughness. She was already familiar with what had transpired in my records and has been pro-active in helping to remedy problems I’ve had from a very negative and unethical spinal surgery two years ago. Both perceptive and positive.”
“Dr Row is personable and skillful. She has helped reduce my pain tremendously.”
“Don’t usually do reviews but felt I needed to. I’ve been seeing Dr. Row a while now for what they call trigger point injections. These are ultrasound-guided injections right where you need them. Dr. Row was able to pinpoint where my issue was and complete the procedure leaving me feeling great. I had a series of three visits, I did do physical therapy as part of the complete package she suggested for me, but I have to tell you it was the best thing I ever did. My pain level went from a 7-8 to a 1-2 which is huge for me. I’ve been to a few other doctors but none with this level of care. So gentle and caring. Have to mention my initial exam was amazing. No other doctor has spent that much time examining me, trying to understand where my pain was originating, and what could be done to get me where I am now. Amazing doctor. Don’t wait, go see Dr. Row.”
“Dr Row is the only doctor in 30 years to relieve me of my muscle and neck pain. It went from a level 10 to a level 2. Now she will start on my low back. She is the best doctor I have ever had. I would recommend her to anyone who is suffering and won’t let another doctor work on me.”
"Dr. Row is an exceptional myofascial pain expert and healthcare provider. I had the privilege of being under Dr. Row's care for several months while seeking treatment for chronic lower back pain. From our first consultation, Dr. Row exhibited a level of compassion, expertise, and dedication to my care that put me at ease. She took the time to thoroughly assess my history, listening to my concerns, and understanding the impact that the pain was having on my daily life, particularly with respect to lifting weights, dancing and gardening.
What truly sets Dr. Row apart is her comprehensive approach to pain management. She utilized a variety of treatment modalities tailored to my needs. Throughout the course of my treatment, Dr. Row remained actively engaged and invested in my progress, regularly monitoring my response to treatment and making adjustments to the plan as needed. Thanks to Dr. Row's exceptional care and expertise, I am now able to enjoy the activities I love again without pain. Her dedication to her patients' wellbeing is truly commendable, and I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone seeking relief from chronic pain and a return to a fulfilling, active lifestyle."
