What people are saying about our therapy team

“To My New Friends.
I want to THANK YOU for putting up with me for the better part of 2 months. You are truly a Band Of Miracle Workers. My first day in your gym was not a good one, as I didn’t think you could do anything for me with my degree of injury. Things began to change when I saw Beautiful Chanel coming through the door, followed by a lady With the most beautiful eyes… Jodi… And then we have a Lady With the brightest Smile… Elizabeth… These three ladies made up the core of my Primary Care Givers… I want to thank the following for all the effort to get me back on my feet: Sue, Amanda, Debbie, Patty, Jackie, Elaine and Eileen. Please forgive me if I forgot a name, or misspelled one. I will miss all of you… I came to you in a wheel chair, and you With your Beautiful Gift, gave me the ability to walk again. I can’t thank you enough. Your new friend… Tom (Slow-Down) Curley”

“My whole experience was fantastic. All the therapists were friendly and helped me during my stay. I would especially like to thank Elizabeth for pushing me to get where I could walk and be able to go home. Everyone I worked with made my stay here pleasurable.”
