Specialties
Our clinic practices The Egoscue Method, founded by Pete Egoscue in San Diego over 20 years ago. Do you have some kind of pain and have tried everything from drugs to physical therapy to injections, chiropractic, massage, acupuncture or even surgery to remedy it? And do you still hurt? At Egoscue, we help you find the problem and fix it.
Most pain is a result not of the condition of the body, but its position. Your back doesn’t hurt because you have a bad back, but because you have a back that is out of position. And that’s true even if (and especially if) you have diagnoses like bulging or herniated discs, «degenerative disc disease», or arthritis. The same holds true of knees, hips, and the rest of your body.
We assess your posture and prescribe exercises designed to bring your body back into postural balance. It is very effective and we guarantee our work: we’ll help you, or you get your money back! If you’re hurting, give us a call, we’re here to help.
History
Established in 2003.
The Egoscue Clinic of Austin opened in November of 2003, and actually had the distinction of being the first licensed clinic in the entire Egoscue system. Since that time they’ve helped thousands of people eliminate pain and get their lives back.
The owners of this clinic, Rick and Theresa Mathes, both started as clients and know what it’s like to deal with chronic pain, and more importantly, to experience the victory of overcoming that pain and returning to a life of freedom and full function.
Meet the Business Owner
Rick M.
Business Owner
I started as a client back in 1999. In 1992, I was involved in a near-fatal car accident where I went from 70 mph to 0 in less than a second. After that night I was in constant, grinding pain every moment of every day. I went through 6 days a week of intense physical therapy and was still told I would never run or play tennis again, and might be in a wheelchair by the time I was 60.
When I finally found Egoscue, I had a ruptured disc in my low back and my pain was so bad I couldn’t tie my own shoes, and I was in my late 30s! Long story short, after a year of consistent work I was running and playing tennis again, pain free. Egoscue helped me get my life back and now it’s my mission to help others reclaim their birthright of a healthy, pain free body able to function without limitation.
