I'm Joel Proskewitz. I rehabilitate spines, train clinicians, and build spinal health businesses.

Spondylolisthesis, thoroughly explained for the first time. One year on, back to almost everything I loved doing, with minimal discomfort.

Ten months post-decompression with a re-herniated disc at the same level, facing another operation. Avoided further surgery and now feels better than I have in a long time.

Two surgeries for an L4/L5 disc prolapse. Over two years on, stronger than ever, with a full return to training.

Advised I'd need spinal fusion within ten years. Ten years on: pain-free, back playing tennis, seen weekly ever since.

Your initial assessment, considered diagnosis and recommendations gave me great confidence... I feel in control of my back condition in a way I have never felt before.

Medically retired from the military after a spinal injury; unable to walk unaided or carry my newborn daughter. More than a year on, I improved beyond where I'd been in almost six years.

Fifteen months from constant discomfort to symptom-free. The injured tissue showed objective improvement on scans, and I now lift heavier than before the injury.

Instantly committed to helping, with knowledge and understanding of spinal problems that's second to none.

I walked in ready to give up training altogether. Two hours of being properly listened to, and the confidence to train again — now back to lifting weights.
