“I had severe sciatica pain that radiated down from my hip to my ankle. I had severe pain for 3-4 weeks straight. I say severe as I was brought to tears. After the first treatment with Edward, I experienced a significant decrease in pain and for the first time I could say, “I felt better”, A true miracle.” Victoria F.
