Warning: Side Effects Include WEIGHT LOSS!!!!!!!
 | By Dr. Karen French
Chiropractic Physician |
The response to my last article, "Are you a Mom Considering a Tummy Tuck... Wait!!!" has been overwhelming!
Many of my patients started their physical therapy program at French Medical Group (FMG) and, much to their surprise, have lost weight... and lots of it!!!!!!!
Every physical therapy program at FMG is Pilates-based and is one-on-one with the doctor or therapist. The initial visit consists of neurological testing, orthopedic testing, muscle strength testing, and range of motion testing.
After initial testing is perfonned a Physical
Therapy program is custom devised to best fit the patient's needs.
As always, our patients can take advantage of the numerous benefits of electrical stimulation, infra-red therapy and massage therapy.
At completion of a physical therapy program, each patient leaves the FMG Clinic with a Home Exercise Program to help them maintain their goals at home.
Here are a few recent testimonials from FMG patients:
"After years of failed weight loss attempts, I am shocked to find myself wearing my old summer clothes. I have lost 15 pounds in one month with no dietary change. I attribute my weight loss to my physical therapy." Janet (Elgin, IL)

"When I started working with Dr. French & the FMG Staff, I was 40 pounds heavier than I am today. I used to work out regularly and was quite frustrated at the lack of results.
Through my therapy program at FMG, I realized I was concentrating on all the wrong muscles, namely the abdominal muscles. I quickly
realized that there is more to working out your stomach than just doing crunches. I learned how to perform "core stabilization" exercises & my weight is at its lowest point in 5 years!" Theresa (St. Charles, IL)

"After herniating a disc in my lower back & living in constant pain, I decided to try the FMG Therapy approach. I am now pain free as well as 20 pounds lighter. I really want to thank Dr. French & her staff for taking care of me and getting me healthy again." Rosemary (Barrington, IL)

I want to thank all of my patients who wrote me & my staff such nice letters. It truly is an amazing feeling to know that we are helping improve our patients' "Quality of life".
