“I couldn’t function and lost the ability to take care of myself. Eventually, I was completely bedridden and had to move into an assisted-living facility where I spent the next two years. The doctors I saw couldn’t help me and I thought I would never walk again.”
For nearly a year, Ashley saw doctors and specialists and tried almost everything including medication, physical and psychological therapies, injections and nerve ablation to stop the pain. It wasn’t until she met the comprehensive spine team at The CORE Institute, and underwent minimally invasive sacroiliac (SI) joint fusion surgery, that the pain was finally alleviated.
“Before coming to The CORE Institute, my back and hip pain were so bad that I couldn’t even get out of bed, let alone walk onto the court. Now I Can swim, lift weights and shoot hoops.”
