About the Pain Center
Dr. Donald A. Rhodes has been in practice since 1973. For many years, he performed many types of complex foot surgery. In 1992, one of his surgical patients developed RSDS. Unable to find help for his patient in the medical community, and concerned for her declining condition, Dr. Rhodes began to research ways in which he could help the young lady. After countless hours of studying and many trials and errors, Dr. Rhodes was able to help the young woman obtain complete pain relief and, in fact, remission from her RSDS, which she still enjoys today.
Soon, word began to spread about this patient, and more and more chronic pain sufferers made their way to the small Texas clinic. Patients have traveled to the clinic from as far away as Australia and England. Since 1995, Dr. Rhodes' practice has been devoted exclusively to helping chronic pain sufferers.
Dr. Rhodes invented and patented the physical therapy treatment, which is utilized in the STS units built by Dynatronics, Inc. He directs the day-to-day alterations of the application of the treatments. He wrote the protocols for these treatments, which are used throughout the world.
