At just 19 years old, Nadia was a Division 1 soccer player.
After years of back pain, she underwent SI joint fusion surgery hoping it would allow her to continue playing.
Instead, the pain became unbearable.
She could no longer sit, sleep, attend class, or play soccer.
Doctors told her nothing more could be done.
Then one night she discovered Dr. Tim Tollestrup’s YouTube channel and learned her pain was actually caused by cluneal nerve entrapment and piriformis syndrome.
After two procedures, the burning nerve pain disappeared.
Today Nadia is back in school, working, exercising—and she now hopes to become a pain-focused peripheral nerve surgeon.
Her story is incredibly powerful.
