I'VE HAD ITBS FOR 6 YEARS AND NOTHING HAS REALLY HELPED. DOES ANYONE KNOW A GOOD, VERY EXPERIENCED SPORTS MEDICINE SURGEON IN THE WEST L.A. OR SANTA MONICA AREA?

Have you gone to a good active release therapist?
Thanks for your suggestion,but I've never heard of active release therapy. Could you enlighten me? Where might I find a practitioner? Thanks again.
Wow, really? You've struggled for 6 years with itbs and you've never heard of ART? Go and find someone that knows ART or myofascial massage and in the meantime buy yourself a PVC pipe (or you can start with a foam roller) and roll your IT band and hip area.
I would suggest speaking with an expert in gait analysis and / or PT. Muscle strengthening plus correct footwear (lightweight minimalist) should cure any ITBS issues.
