Fallen Olympian Sprinter Almost

Said Goodbye to Lifelong Dream

They say to never stop chasing your dreams.

 

Matthew almost did.

 

His dream was to run. He loved it more than anything else in the world. Every time he ran, he tasted freedom. He ran so fast that his peers nicknamed him – Speedy Gonzales.

When he was 23, he qualified for the Olympics in London. It was such a great honor for him to represent his country on the world stage. He was at the peak of his career. With his sights set high, he would train for up to six hours a day, with only a day’s rest within a week.

 

In 2016, he was preparing for his second Olympics. Matthew was so confident that it was his time to shine. He wanted to be a champion, so he pushed himself very hard. After all, when you are young and strong, you feel invincible.

 

Matthew was at the high point of his life. Little did he know that his life would change drastically…

He was driving home for Thanksgiving when he lost control of his car and got into a terrible accident. He was rushed to the hospital. Thankfully, the doctors were able to save his life. But they could not save his right arm.

It’s the worst kind of nightmare for an elite athlete, for anyone as a matter of fact, to become disabled. He was devastated to drop out of the 2016 Olympics.

But there was still hope for Matthew. He could still join the Paralympics! The moment he was declared fit and stable enough, he hit the field. The track was his life and blood; he has been running since he was a child.

 

Matthew was fine the first day. Then his knees started to make weird popping sounds. The week after, they started to swell up painfully. He panicked. Would the accident take away his knees too?

 

Without hesitating, he made an appointment with his orthopaedist. Dr. Phillip did a scan of his knees and found his cartilage to be almost completely worn down!


He was immediately put to intensive physical therapy and asked to stop running for the time being. Matthew threw himself into therapy hoping that he would have a speedy recovery.

A month turned into two months. Two months turned into six months. Unfortunately, Matthew wasn’t getting better enough to hit the field.

Desperate, he tried other kinds of more traditional treatments. He went to see a Chinese doctor for Chinese Traditional Medicine. It was so horrifying! The doctor bent his body in awkward and painful positions. He was really traumatized.

 

He even went to see an indigenous spiritual healer. She gave him some sort of weird smelling concoction and told him to recite some mantra to ward away the spirits. Well, that was hopeless too.


Often, the solution appears when we are not looking for it. At a high school reunion, Matthew’s old buddy Mandy introduced him to a chiropractor Dr. Yamamoto, who was into a more holistic approach.


Initially, Matthew was a little sceptical to pay Dr. Yamamoto a visit, though he still had a little bit of hope. Lo and behold, Dr. Yamamoto convinced him to give his PowerBraces™ a try! Basically, he explained that PowerBraces™ is an improved version of a conventional knee brace. Its uniqueness lies in a special alloy material.

 

A lot of knee braces out there are bulky and restricts movements. Dr. Yamamoto explained that his braces are meant to mimic a normal knee so that one can walk effortlessly. Its simple engineering mechanism allows the wearer to lift and step with ease. Thereby relieving their aching knee of tons of pressure. Essentially, it does the work for them!

 

He explained that he created it for anyone suffering from knee pain. It doesn’t matter if you are a young athlete, a middle-aged construction worker, or an old-timer. You will feel young again with a spring in your steps all day round.

 

Here is how the PowerBraces™ has benefited others:

  • Eliminate knee discomfort.
  • Protect knees from impact force.
  • Reduce wear and tear of cartilage.
  • Better posture.
  • Improved daily routine.
  • Improved sleep, mood, and energy levels.

Matthew experience wearing the PowerBraces™

“I strapped them over my bare knees. It fit me perfectly like I wasn’t wearing anything.”

 

“Then, I stood up.”

 

“It was the most amazing feel. Almost like flying!”

Matthew did not realize how much burden his knees were under until it was lifted! Immediately, he sprinted around his house in joy. Nobody, including himself, thought that he could ever run again.

 

But he didn’t want to overdo it. He wanted to ensure that he was ready to hit the field. So, in the first week, he disciplined himself to do simple tasks, like grocery shopping and running errands.

 

In the second week, he went jogging around the neighbourhood.

 

The next thing he knew, his physical therapist said that he was fit to start sprinting again.

 

It was a miracle!

 

The next day he trained for 3 hours without feeling any pain! He is so glad he found these PowerBraces™! He wears them all week. At the end of the day, his knee feels light and he sleeps soundly.

 

Thanks to these PowerBraces™, Matthew was able to join the 2016 Paralympics in Rio. Guess what? He won a gold medal! Who knew that there would be a silver lining for Matthew!

In our interview with Matthew, he told us:

“My mom said that I look livelier than ever.”

 

“I highly recommend PowerBraces™ to anyone who has painful knees. Don’t let your knees stop you from chasing your dreams!” – Matthew Lance
