Healing Chronic Pain

When Tristan was attending Mount Royal University studying for her diploma in Massage Therapy, engaging in a formal Case Study course was a critical part of her education.

Over a period of 12 weeks, Tristan worked with a client who suffered traumatic injuries to their pelvis in a devastating motor vehicle accident 20 years ago.

The subject of the study lived with chronic pain for years due to improperly healed fractures and has since developed bilateral osteoarthritis of the hips, and unilateral trochanteric bursitis.

After years of receiving cortisone injections in an attempt to resolve the intense pain of bursitis, the client sought less invasive and more effective techniques.

Within weeks of hour-long massage treatments from Tristan, the client’s pain lessened, and the shots were no longer needed.

After two months of weekly treatment, which included slow and intense deep tissue massage, manual stretching, scar tissue reduction, as well as home care that included strengthening and stretching exercises, the client has now been pain-free for over a year, WITHOUT any additional medical intervention.

The client continues to see Tristan regularly and is extremely pleased with the results of their massage treatment.
