Customer Reviews
You don’t have to suffer!
Probably like most of you, I found this podcast when I was in severe pain and terrified about how I was going to go about my activities of daily living pregnant with a toddler! I learned so much about sciatica through this podcast and immediately signed up for Ashley’s patient advocate program.
He truly goes above and beyond for his clients and helped me get my pain under control quickly. I’m so much calmer knowing that if I get myself into a painful situation again, Ashley’s got my back (literally)! I’m massively grateful and hope others in this situation find great support like I did!
Informative and helpful
It was wonderful to listen to someone who has knowledge and a deep understanding of the body and how muscles work.
Live Pain Free
This podcast is a must for anyone looking to find an alternative and holistic way to heal back pain. Dr Mak’s approach is gentle, progressive and innovative. I’m grateful we have been able to align our podcasts and businesses to help people live pain free.
