“I went to WildHawk PT after being in tremendous low back & SI joint pain for months. I was having trouble moving through everyday life and could hardly sleep, which was keeping me from working and doing any kind of physical activity. I had seen all sorts of professionals—massage therapists, acupuncturists, a chiropractor, even an orthopedic doctor, but none of that was helping, and I was beginning to feel very desperate and discouraged.”
“On my first visit to WildHawk PT, I was very impressed by their extensive knowledge and professionalism. The therapist took a lot of care to identify the issues that were causing the pain. I was so encouraged when I started to feel relief after that first visit. After four weeks of treatment and doing the prescribed daily exercises, the pain was almost gone completely! I am so grateful to WildHawk PT for helping me get my life back and empowering me to help myself too. I only wish I had gone to see them sooner!”

“Ryan Barragree is an amazing DPT. He treated me earlier this year for severe back and hip pain. His personal attention and commitment to my recovery was beyond my expectation. He provided hands-on manual therapy, spinal mobilization and manipulation, and a sport specific exercise regimen which got me back to pickleball, cycling, swimming and golf sooner than expected. Ryan personally following up on my progress on his own time, even after I was released from treatments. I highly recommend Wildhawk PT and Ryan.”

“I was very fortunate to have Christian as my PT! He is very knowledgeable, studies the origin of the pain/problem and comes up with the perfect plan. He knew just the right amount of work I needed to do when I came in with back pain. He helped me regain the ability I had before the injury and I was able to do the activities I like again. I would highly recommend his skills!”

“Christian is extremely knowledgeable and his expertise and attention to detail , along with his ability to get to the root of the issue and formulate a plan is invaluable. As a massage therapist, I saw first hand the positive results he brought to improve the health of his clients. He makes a huge difference in their lives and I highly recommend him.”

“Christian was the first physical therapist I saw after I had been seeing my previous PT for over 12 years. I knew I was in good hands when he made sure to look at my sciatica as a whole body issue instead of an isolated problem. I have seen him on and off since 2017 for a variety of issues (knee pain and migraines to name a couple) and his attention to detail and skills with soft tissue work and dry needling made a huge impact in my recovery. If you’re dealing with nagging injuries/pain, I would highly recommend Christian to help you get to the root cause and get relief.”

“If you are having pain and want to try physical therapy – I highly recommend Christian Busch.
I was referred to Christian Busch for physical therapy in January 2020, and continued therapy with him through September 2020. I have an issue with scoliosis that has caused neck and back pain for a number of years. I have gone to physical therapy several times, but no one addressed the underlying issue of scoliosis.
Christian told me in our first session that he could not change the alignment of my spine – but he could strengthen and improve my muscles to help me sit, stand, and walk better – and reduce my pain.
I work remotely for a software company, and use a computer to get my work done. I have lots of ergonomic tools – a sit-stand desk and an ergonomic chair. But these tools alone were not reducing my back and neck pain.
Christian showed me how my posture (leaning to the right) was causing most of the issues. He gave me simple exercises that didn’t involve any expensive equipment that I could do at home. He printed out an example of every exercise, each with an illustration and clear instructions.
My husband has noticed a big difference, and tells me I’m sitting and standing much straighter. No more slumping to the right. And my back pain and neck pain have reduced considerably.
I want to thank Christian for the personal attention and support he gave to help me overcome my issues with scoliosis. Christian has the training and expertise to work on difficult issues. I recommend him highly.”

“I came to Ryan a few weeks ago in a desperate plea for help. I am very active with mountain biking, strength training and yoga and was inhibited in all 3 activities due to a combination of elbow tendonitis and rotator cuff pain in my right shoulder. The pain had gotten so bad, it was affecting not only my sport activities, but also many aspects other aspects of my life. Ryan’s knowledge and expertise allowed him to immediately develop a plan of attack for me which included special techniques of manual manipulation, targeting exercises and dry needling. I am so excited to share that after 6 weeks I have been able to gain significant strength in my right arm and back to doing all the things I love again, with little to no pain in my elbow or shoulder. Ryan was very patient to answer all my questions about the injuries and taught me many ways to strengthen and protect these joints in the future. I will recommend WildHawk PT to anyone who is struggling with chronic pain from injury or otherwise, these guys are great! Tania”
