| - If I could give Ron 10 stars, I would. When I first met him a couple of years ago, I was not able to run without calf compression sleeves, and a distance of no more than 3 miles. Ron helped to get me out of compression sleeves & said he would have me running SIX miles within two weeks. Admittedly, I was not a believer. For years I had run 3 to 3.75 miles with terrible shin splints for the majority of the run, to the point that I could run no more than 3.75 miles.
Two weeks after seeing Ron, not only was I running SIX miles, I was doing so without calf compression sleeves AND I began training for my first half marathon! Ron is TRULY amazing.
Approximately 6 months ago I had foot issues. My foot pain was so severe that I would literally be hobbling halfway through a run. My ankles felt like they were going to explode. In a moment of stupidity, I saw another PT, who was less supportive of running, and stated, "You only have so many miles in your body (whatever that means)". He also suggested running on absolutely flat surfaces, wearing orthotics in my running & everyday shoes, and stop wearing sandals & flats. I thought an electric wheelchair was in my future.
I also visited a Foot & Ankle specialist who suggested I stop running, and "Bike or swim instead". I find both of those activities dreadfully boring.
My husband suggested I visit Ron, as he was able to help me in the past. Once again, Ron pulled me from the depths of despair :-) and made me believe in myself and my ability to run.
I'm back running with absolutely NO ISSUES, NO RESTRICTIONS, NO ORTHOTICS, and training for upcoming races. NO ISSUES AT ALL. I am planning to arrange for training classes with Ron so that he can continue to support me in my running career.
If you want expertise & support with running - see Ron. If you want to hear run-bashing and no appreciation for your love of running - see everyone else.
