I had injured my knee and was told by a physio in Sydney it would be okay to wear Birkenstocks while traveling. Sadly, instead of helping, I seriously injured my toes on both feet by having them take on the job of balancing. I suffered for over a year. In the States, I saw a podiatrist, who gave me injections and some temporary relief.
My Bestie in Melbourne insisted that I see Paul Karak while I was staying with her. He treated me with dry needling and adding pads to all of my shoes.
HE LITERALLY CHANGED MY LIFE. I walk without pain and when I returned to Seattle, I started to receive dry needling (Also known as Intra-Muscular Stimulation) for chronic shoulder pain. 15 months later: my feet remain completely healed. My daughter and husband are also receiving this therapy for their pain and we all have increased range of motion! read more
