I would highly recommend lumbar block procedure and Dr Poply who supported me through every step of it. The procedure was so quick and the recovery so fast. I am finally able to enjoy walking, exercising and more importantly being able to go to school with my son by bike.

Pleasantly surprised how beneficial this treatment was. I grade my pain 70% better. My mood and confidence has improved. I can now use stairs normally rather than one step at a time. Hoping these benefits last as long as possible when combined with the stretching advised.
