Patient Reviews
May 04, 2022
I was doing small talk in a doctor's waiting room, and Dr Ruskin's name was mentioned as a possible avenue to get rid of my lower back pain. I followed up with the reccomendation and I now am really pleased with the results. My progressing pain, of three years, has stopped bothering me. Big problem now is to get moving and reshape the muscles that went soft from lack of use.
