Therapist near Sarasota, Fl
I attended Dr. Wise's program two years ago. I have achieved approximately 75% improvement. I would like to find someone like Tim Sawyer to help me with technique. I am putting in the time and effort, but seem to have reached a point of no more improvement. I still have pain when I sit, but I am much better when not sitting. Sarasota is just south of Tampa (50 miles).

Phone number for Partnership is 305-666-3232.
