    Thanks for allot your help everyone! I’m in Va now for work and when I get back next week I will be back to the dr to start to figure out a game plan regarding surgery etc. Kaitlin, I will email you when I get home and have a little more time.

    A quick side question, does anyone here have any experience with torn adductors and more importantly the recovery time if I were to undergo surgery?

    Thanks again

    Yeah I have watched the episodes here on mobilitywod.com as well as videos on the Marc Pro website. It seems like something I am definitely going to use once I am able to get back into training and riding, it should help me get back to where I was before the injury. I probably should have phras d the question differently, I didn’t know if using the Marc pro with this type of injury would have any adverse effects but it makes sense that I should probably stay away from it until I’m cleared by a dr to start training again to avoid further complications. In one of the videos o saw I thought it also said that the Marc Pro Plus was a good tool to use after surgery but I can’t remember which video that was.

    I don’t see why I couldn’t use the mark pro on my other leg and the rest of my body to help with recovery since the nature of my business doesn’t allow me to “take it easy” the way others would. I’m just not riding now but I am still working and teaching which has been taking a toll on my back and left leg since I have been compensating so much due to the injury. Is this a something that makes sense or should I stay away from it completely until I have a game plan regarding the injured leg?

    Thanks for the website David. I should hear back from my Dr by tuesday regarding my different options for surgery etc and once I figure out what Im doing I will talk with my PT or Dr about the electrotherapy. I know I will be back here in the near future once I have a game plan on how to treat this injury and where I am going from there.

    I just came across this thread and am glad I did.

    I have been looking into purchasing a Marc Pro ever since I joined Mobilitywod.com in February. I ride horses competitively for a living and injured myself in mid January. I finally got around to seeing a doctor and it turns out I have a partially torn adductor longus and a near complete tear to the adductor brevis. I’m waiting to hear back from my doctor who was going to talk to a specialist about surgery etc but I was wondering how beneficial the Marc Pro would be either as a recovery tool after surgery or possibly using it if I don’t end up needing surgery. My goal is to be able to get back to competing and I’m hoping this isn’t a career ending injury but only time will tell.

    Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
