From Wheelchair Fears to Walking Free: Tina's Journey with the LinQ Procedure
After years of debilitating SI joint pain that left her feeling wheelchair-bound, Tina Smith finally found lasting relief through the LinQ® procedure at the Southwest Ohio Pain Institute with Dr. Mohammed Munir. Traditional treatments like physical therapy and medication offered only short-term comfort, but the LinQ procedure gave Tina immediate, life-changing results—freeing her from chronic pain and helping her reclaim a life of mobility and independence.
Early Pain and Struggles with SI Joint dysfunction
Tina Smith had been dealing with pain that was not just an occasional inconvenience—it was a relentless force that made even the simplest tasks a nightmare. Whether it was working, doing household chores, or simply moving around, every step she took was met with excruciating pain. The intensity of the discomfort was so severe that Tina felt like she was “essentially wheelchair bound.” Her back and feet were both in constant agony, making it almost impossible to walk without severe limitations.
Prior Treatments: Temporary Relief, Long-Term Struggles
Tina sought help through physical therapy, which provided some relief—albeit temporary. While she could experience some improvement after sessions, the relief didn’t last long. Unfortunately, the pain would always return, leaving her in the same cycle of hope and disappointment. Pain medications were another tool she tried, but they only masked the pain without addressing the root cause. Despite these efforts, Tina found herself stuck in a routine where the pain never truly went away.
The Decision to try the LinQ Procedure
Tina decided to explore another possibility. She had already been through a variety of treatments, and although some had helped temporarily, she was still facing the same debilitating issues. Being no stranger to having to pay out-of pocket for medical procedures, Tina was thrilled to learn that a variety of insurances cover the cost of this procedure, including hers!” With further guidance from Dr. Mohammed Munir of the Southwest Ohio Pain Institute, Tina was more than willing to go through with the procedure.
Post Procedure: Life Changing Results with LinQ
Tina was thrilled to find that the right side of her hip felt completely pain-free. She experienced immediate relief, with the results becoming clear soon after the procedure. The procedure brought Tina a level of comfort she hadn’t known in years. She was no longer worried about needing a wheelchair to get around. With the right side of her hip improving significantly, Tina began to feel a sense of freedom she thought was long lost.
Now: Freedom to Enjoy Life Pain Free
Today, Tina’s life is dramatically different-she’s no longer confined by the pain that once dominated her life. The procedure gave her the ability to enjoy a pain-free existence—something she never thought possible. “I feel great now. I don’t have to worry about staying in a wheelchair anymore,” Tina says with relief. “The procedure was wonderful, and I would absolutely tell anyone about how amazing it was. Tina’s experience is a testament to the power of medical advancements like the procedure she underwent with Dr. Mohammed Munir at the Southwest Ohio Pain Institution. For Tina, it wasn’t just about alleviating pain—it was about reclaiming her life. The pain that once ruled her world is no longer in control, and Tina has regained the ability to live life on her terms.
