Dr. Ron Samaniego of Active Life Chicago PT

I've been saying no to event invites at night because of a scary incident last 2012. I just couldn't say no to an intimate select bloggers dinner with Dr. Ron Samaniego (the country's soon to be top leading PT).

Dr. Ron is the owner of Active Life Chicago PT and has over 5 clinics in the metro. Active Life Chicago PT services include, sports rehab, post surgery rehab, acute and chronic pain therapy and vestibular rehab.

Bloggers had the chance to interview Dr. Ron up close and personal. I immediately like Dr. Ron for the following reasons:

1. He knows what he is talking about. Dr. Ronald Samaniego, PT, DPT, received his Bachelors in Physical Therapy from Fatima University and his Doctor in Physical Therapy at Utica College, NY.
Ron's emphasis is on continuing education, learning manual therapy (Hands-On Skills) to improve the rate at which he can alleviate a patient's pain. He has over 100 hours of specialized training in orthopedic rehab and musculoskeletal issues. Dr. SAMANIEGO is one of most famous doctor in his field, with 17 years of experience as a Doctor of Physical Therapy.

2. He is best at his field having experienced to rehab his own knee after an ACL surgery caused by a basketball accident and he understands the importance of being flexible with each person’s rehab needs. His area of specialty: Neck Pain-whiplash injury, morning stiffness, pain upon movement, Back Pain-Lumbar strain, scoliosis, ankylosing spondylitis, Shoulder-Rotator cuff tear, frozen shoulders, shoulder impingements, Knee Pain-Patellar tendinitis, chondromalacia patella, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, Hip and Knee Pain Rehabilitation after surgery (Ex: Total Knee/Total Hip replacement, Shoulder arthroplasty, Hip Resurfacing), Sports injuries, Auto injuries, work injuries, Diabetic Neuropathy (Tingling sensation or pain on hands or feet).

3. He loves the Philippines more than any countries hes been to. Dr. Ron decided to return to the country and set up clinic after clinic. So far Active Life Chicago PT has branches in 415 Cityland Shaw Tower Mandaluyong City, 1472-1476 Pacific Century Tower, Quezon Avenue, Quezon City Unit 805 Near Crossings Mall/National Bookstore, 303 Philippine Business Bank corporate center 1906 Finance drive Madrigal Center 1, Alabang, Muntinlupa,

4. He is stepping up the game in physical theraphy.

5. His birthday falls on July. Yes, I'm bias, I love people who's birth falls on July - my birth month!

I shall be visiting Dr. Ron in one of his clinics to have my husband's back problem. I will update you on this after the treatment.
