The Gray Method™

“Discover How We Help Active Adults and Athletes Fix the Cause of Their Pain and Not Just Their Symptoms With the Gray Method!”

Discover A Brand-New Method That Allows Active People Like You—People Searching For A Pain-Free Lifestyle—To Get Relief From Their Condition PERMANENTLY!

The Gray Method™ looks at your body AS A WHOLE. We don’t isolate just one problem area and treat that. We examine the entire body, to see how it’s working as one unit…as it was designed.

We systematically determine the real reason why you’re having pain or stiffness, then address the psychological component of your pain, AND then show you how you can treat it yourself going forward. Makes sense, right?

Here are some of the advantages of using our approach:

  • We DON’T stop at the surface! We address the underlying cause of your pain, stiffness, or injury

  • We stimulate the body to heal itself through movement, hands-on care, and patient education…all tailored to what you need.

  • We can usually diagnose your condition without MRI’s, X-RAYS, or a plethora of expensive tests

How The Gray Method™ Works

Step 1: Your History & Pain Questions

The first part consists of learning more about you and your situation & asking you some questions, like:

  • How long have you been suffering?

  • How did the injury occur?

  • What makes it better or worse?

  • Is your pain constant?

  • What are your goals?

Once the provider has asked the appropriate questions they can usually detect just by talking to you what your condition is. Crazy, right?

This is because pain, stiffness, or injuries make sense. If your pain is constant or unrelenting you usually have an inflammatory condition (acute injury), a psychosomatic condition, or a red flag.

Our provider’s goal is to rule these in or out, by talking with you.

On the other hand, if you have pain with particular motions, positions, or time of day, we can usually rule specific conditions in or out as well.

Step 2: The Examination

Once we’ve asked you certain questions and have a better understanding of your situation, we’ll take you through a physical examination.

The premise and goal of this examination process is two-fold;

One – to discern what your injury or where your pain is stemming from. For instance, is it a muscle, tendon, disc, or nerve?

Secondly – to detect the root cause of your injury.

What I have found after countless hours of studying and learning, is that there are 3 key areas of the body that cause the majority of pain or dysfunction & these are usually what is causing yours. Your pain site is just the symptom; there is usually a cause.

Those three key areas are:

  • The Feet

  • The Hips

  • The Thoracic Spine (your mid-back)

When any of these three areas are not working optimally, you get neck pain, a rotator cuff or knee injury and pathology, or lower back pain. Think about that for a minute…

The majority of conditions that patients come in for are lower back, neck, and knee. The areas adjacent to them (hips, feet, and thoracic spine) usually become dysfunctional, causing you to compensate and irritate the injured or problematic area.

Step 3: Diagnosis & Prognosis

Once our team has listened to your story and done a proper examination, we’ll then outline the results and if we think we can help you.

During this final stage, we’ll also look at any imaging that you may have had done as well.

Dr Sharon was diligent in dealing with my back and neck issues. She increased my mobility tremendously and the home exercises she gave me did wonders for my golf game and general health. I want to continue a program to increase my mobility even more and enjoy the benefits of painless activities. Her program has done wonders

In September 2022 I had a complex shoulder surgery and began a regimen of physical therapy with Dr. Sharon Sims of Back in Motion here in Verandah. I can only say that today I’m in better physical shape then I’ve been in years. By following her treatment plan I’m able to play “pain free golf” a couple of time a week and participate in fitness activities -- pickleball is next on my list. It wasn’t easy, requiring a lot of work, but it paid off. Thanks Dr. Sharon.I have been seeing Dr. Sharon for a few weeks. After the 2nd visit the severe lower back pain was alleviated. So much so that I have been able to resume golf with much better swing ( although that's not saying much LoL).If you need physical therapy this is the place and she is the right doctor.Be prepared to work hard. If you follow directions you'll be satisfied.

Dr. Sharon is a miracle worker! I ended up with nerve damage after a partial knee replacement and was very slow to recover. Dr. Sharon kept me motivated even though I was not seeing immediate improvement. I kept at it and she has helped me build back my quad strength and range of motion. She noticed I also had some back issues and the orthopedic inserts she recommended for me are really alleviating my back pain and helping me with my gait. I also tried dry needling and that also helped relieve pain and helped with my range of motion. My surgeon said it could take up to a year for my nerves to regenerate and I plan on continuing to see Dr. Sharon until I reach my goal of walking without a limp and being able to resume an active lifestyle. Dr. Sharon was able to adapt exercises so that I could feel that I was improving and her vast experience in the field was obvious. I strongly recommend Dr. Sharon for both flexibility and pain treatment as well as post operative care. She is the best!

Sharon is an excellent physical therapist, highly competent, professional and personable! She has been helping me with both my shoulder and my back. I am now comfortably walking, doing the elliptical and biking, and will be golfing and playing pickleball soon. Thanks so much!

I attended an arthritis discovery seminar by Dr. Sharon Sims and found it very informative. I booked my first appointment for an evaluation and the office staff made the process extremely easy and more importantly, efficient! Dr. Sharon's diagnosis was thorough and a treatment plan immediately put into place and future appointments booked. I feel much better after just 4 appointments. Thank you, Dr. Sharon and Back in Motion! Highly recommend!

I suffered a stroke in early October 2021. The stroke mostly resulted in numbness and loss of sensory perception on my left side. However, Dr. Sharon pointed out that it also involved some loss of some motor skills along with a weakened sense of balance.Dr. Sharon has been working with me not only in strengthening my left side but also increasing my sense of balance which has definitely improved over the last several weeks. My golf game has also improved as a result of the therapy.Dr. Sharon’s diagnostic and evaluation skills are exceptional along with her ability to arrive at a treatment plan that has reduced some of the damage from my stroke. I highly recommend Dr. Sharon and am thankful for the physical therapy which she has provided.Thanks,Gary C. Reich D.D.S. ( retired)
