Spondylolisthesis - New Hope

2nd opinion: Spondylolisthesis BJJ:

I went to see a different physician today and after evaluation, looking over my X-rays, and talking to me he said no need for surgery at this point.  He feels that with 4-6 weeks of rest from Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and other stressful type activities/exercise and physical therapy, he may be able to release me back to Jiu Jitsu on a light level.  I have a grade 1 Spondylolisthesis and he showed me on my X-ray that it is really like a half grade 1 as mine shows to be around 15% slipped forward.  I am to focus on core strength and flexibility in PT to help stabilize it.  I'm excited to Start PT soon.  I have no idea what to expect.
