Here we go. We'll start you off on 50. Okay. Okay, here we go. Three, two, one.
Hey, Vera. Hello.
How you feeling, girl? Great.
Feeling great.
What are you doing right now?
The emsculpt.
She had to read it.
The emsculpt. How many treatments have you done with the Emsculpt? Six.
Myself did the first six, and then I started my maintenance. I think that's right.
That's really. It's really amazing. And. And how much better are you feeling after starting to use this equipment?
Oh, my goodness. I'm about 100%. I don't feel like I'm going to fall when I walk, and I don't feel like I'm going to crumble or.
If my knees are going to give way or anything. I can walk now.
How does that make you feel?
Oh, wonderful. Because I hated not to walk. I mean, I was hardly walking at all because it hurts so bad.
Yeah.
So now I'm walking. I haven't really measured, like, miles or anything, but I've been walking a lot more.
How do you feel about your confidence in your steps?
Oh, much better. I feel like I'm confident. I feel stronger. I feel more stable, just all of that. What do you.
What would you say to somebody about the investment in doing and working with these devices?
They're hurting. It's worthwhile, for sure, because I was hurting. Yeah, so it is very worthwhile. And I've told people, but, you know, they haven't decided to do anything yet, so I guess they're not hurting as bad as I was.
That's right. That's right. What was it about your knees that made you frustrated before we got started?
That I felt like I was going to fall, that I've been walking along and felt like I was just gonna give way and I was just gonna fall over, so I didn't want to walk.
Okay. And how is it now?
Great. I go walk in nearly every day, go down to the park, and I even take my dog with his leash, and he goes, kids? Partly. And then I put him in the car and I go walk some more so I don't get enough.
And what are the treatments like for you?
Oh, feel good. I just love these. They feel so good on my legs and.
Everything.
How long after we started treating you with the emsculpt devices did you start to feel a difference?
Probably a month or less.
Because I was coming pretty often there, right? At first.
Using my cane for a while, but then I kind of quit using that.
And I haven't seen you with a cane in quite some time. So you haven't needed a cane?
I've been using it. One of my daughters thought the other day we were going somewhere. She said, don't you think you need to use it? I said, yeah, I'm fine.
I love it. What would you just say to somebody who was thinking about coming to work with Pinnacle Integrative Orthopedics?
Oh, it's. Please do. It's fabulous, fantastic. The people are great. Machines are great, everything. I've just really been glad, and I just miss y'. All.
When I have.
Don't come.
Well, we're always happy to see you. Thank you so much. Do you have anything else that you want to say?
