“I don’t do well when I don’t get to kitesurf. I was in a panic when one day I had to do a wild maneuver to compensate for another kiter and afterwards I could tell something wasn’t right with my shoulder.
Through very careful diagnosis Glenn pinpointed the exact problem. After 3 treatments and a week of rest I was back on the water. Without Glenn I would likely have been out for a solid 4 weeks.”
