At least ripped the ligaments in the end of the third quarter during a playoff game although that ankle sprain that John sustained was at it and to see the trauma to the ankle you would affirm that it had fractured his ankle. What’s interesting about that injury was that most sportsmen who have multiple sprains the muscle systems become overloaded and become hyper-eased to try and create stability and hence the resiliency of the tissue is dramatically reduced and so had Stockton not been under my care for those years he would have undoubtedly ruptured the ligaments or fractured that lateral malleolus. He did some damage but he did not do the kind of damage that he could have because he had the flexibility as well as the resiliency of the tissues, because Stockton was balanced as it turns out. We went into the locker room, the orthopedic surgeon appraised it, actually didn’t believe there was a fracture and then I went to work and I corrected the articulations of the ankle joint back into alignment so that the joint course correctly, that change of dynamics of the receptors within the joint capsule, I reactivated the lateral stabilizer muscles, peroneus longus muscles both cuneiform and metatarsal sections and John got off the table and started to walk, each measure was a little less debilitating, though he was running in the running in the locker room pretty much pain free they taped his ankle and he went out and played the fourth quarter and we won that game.

Now, you tell folks that will not consider you and that it took ten minutes to turn them around and we did that innumerable times through the rest of the sportsmen and his livelihood on the Jazz team. They learned that if they sprain an ankle within a day they’ll be back playing and what we’d ordinarily take four to six weeks of standard medical care, Stockton was back within ten fifteen minutes, normally within a day or two no pain in the slightest.

That actually speaks to how powerful this therapy is in reassessing, readjusting and confirming the ordinary mechanoreceptive function of the joint along with the muscle as far as getting the function back.
