Special Event Medical Coverage

MACuser10 — Sun, 30 Jan 2011 20:40:27 +0000

We can develop a medical team to meet the needs of your event and implement the staff on-site to provide coverage on the day of your event. We can provide on-site coverage for your event, the course, and your athletes – regardless of the size of your event!

We can also provide basic life support (BLS) or Advance Life Support (ALS) levels of care through our EMS staff. The MedEvent EMS staff consists of Emergency Medical Technicians (EMT’s) as well as paramedics and can provide on site EMS services for your event and those attending your event. For more information on our EMS services see our EMS Division page.

The EMS aspect is only one area of our overall team approach. We also offer the Sports medicine component, that being certified athletic trainers. With the addition of athletic trainers to our team, we have a more aggressive approach to coverage. The Sports Medicine aspect allows our team to treat the participants of your events the way they should be…like athletes! Often events have participants who travel several hours to participate. These individuals don’t want to be pulled from participation for a mild injury. Our athletic trainers are often able to treat your athletes and return them to participation. The other major area we differ from other agencies is the placement of our team. We go beyond the “stand by” mode of placement at the start/finish line. We actually evaluate your course and place our staff at key locations throughout the course, which further allows us to treat your athletes while they participate.

Hundreds of Athlete’s Attest to ProRelease’s Expert Care

Upon coming out to the International Cycling Classic in Milwaukee, I was severely discomforted and performance limited due to chronic tightness and inflammation throughout my hamstring. As an elite athlete, I travel and compete extensively 10 months out of the year. It is therefore imperative that my body functions at its optimal ability. Steve Wittemann made it possible for me to do just that. After just one treatment, I noticed a drastic relief in my discomfort both on and off the bike. In seven races, I finished in the top 20 four times against the best in the United States and abroad- results that wouldn’t have occurred without Steve’s impeccable care and professionalism towards me as an athlete.

Dear Steve,

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for all the work you did in helping me prepare for Ironman this past year. As you know I was faced with the task of recovering from knee surgery in February and two back surgeries in March. I was told that working out, let alone training for an Ironman, was out of the question by my doctors. This led me to you and A.R.T. I couldn’t believe the amount of flexibility and decrease in pain I saw after just one visit let alone the improvements that came after working with you for a short time. What is most impressive is that although my pain may have been in my hamstring you discovered that the root of the problem was actually a nerve entrapment in my Psoas and tightness in my medial quad. Everyone else kept treating the hamstring with minimal results. My doctors were so impressed that they cleared me to start running 6 weeks ahead of schedule and of course gave me the go ahead to train for Ironman.

I feel fortunate to have met you and greatly appreciate all the work you have done for me. I will continue to utilize your services when needed and will encourage others to do so as well.

Thanks again for all your help.

Sincerely,

Rick F.

Dear Steve:

I wanted to write to you and let you know how happy I am with the Active Release Technique.
As you know, I have had chronic headaches for over 20 years related to my TMJ disorder. I have seen dentists and physical therapist for the past 8 years to treat this condition. I wear a night splint to help with the grinding. Still, I was having weeks of constant headaches. I could relieve the pain with high doses of ibuprofen, which I was taking with Tylenol. I tried stretching and yoga, which helped, but the pain always returned.

Five years ago, I was in 2 separate auto accidents 3 months apart. I was hit from behind on the first accident, and I hit someone on the freeway who pulled in front of me for the second accident. The past 5 years have been especially difficult due to the combination of these accidents, my TMJ disorder, and of course, stress. I was having headaches almost every day. I tried physical therapy again, I was using over the counter analgesics every day. I tried massages. I even tried acupuncture, which did not work for me at all. I was feeling fatigued all the time from the headaches and I found it very difficult to work at the computer due to the pain. Finally, I even started to develop a stomach ulcer from the medication I was using every day.

I heard about ART, and called you up to see if you might be able to help me. I found you to be very professional, and I loved that you were able to explain why I was still having pain. After only one session, I am pain free. I was expecting to have to have more treatments, but I have not needed them. I continue my yoga and stretching exercises. The only time I have pain is if I “over do it”. When I have had a return of pain, I am able to quickly manage it. I no longer take any over the counter pain medications.

You provide a valuable service. I recommend you to all my friends who experience pain. I would not hesitate to use ART again. The results for me were amazing! I would like to also add, that although your services are not currently covered by my insurance, I feel your treatment was a tremendous value. I am no longer in pain, and I am much more productive at home and work. Who can put a price on that?

Sincerely,

Laura H., RN, B.S.N
