I was referred to the Cone Health Outpatient Rehabilitation Center at 1904 N Church St in Greensboro, NC about five years ago because of chronic neck pain (degenerative spine disease and facet joint problems). My experiences were the following.
When I tried to explain to the first PT that I saw what the problem was, he told me that it did not matter what the problem was, he answered: "The past is the past and the only thing that matters now that you have neck pain". Over a period of several months I was given a number of excercises to do at home by three different physical therapists. I did them a lot over the last five years. My neck pain got progressively worse. Hoping that the exercises would make it better I continued doing them. I did not expect that the exercisises were making my condition worse.
I recently saw a physicians assistant in a pain clinic, who also has 20 years experience as a PT working with spinal issues. When I showed her the exercises I was told to do, she said: "Do not do those, this is the worst thing you can do for the problem you have". I followed her advice and did not do the exercises. Within a few days my condition improved. Doing some other exercises that she recommended and taking Robaxin within a months made me feel better than I have felt in five years.
During one session a PT set me up with a neck stretching device. Although she should have stayed in the room for one stretching and relaxing cycle she left the room immediatly. The machine stretched my neck for without any relaxation periods. I ended up using the buzzer to call fro help and was told and overheard the supervisor, who had freed me, explain to the PT how to correctly set up the machine.
