I have a good range of motion!
“Before therapy, I had to use my cane and the pain in my knee was a 7 out of 8 on the pain scale. The pain in my back and hips was also a 7 out of 8. I could barely bend my knee and everything hurt. Since therapy, I have good range of motion and almost a 1 on the pain scale. I guess what I would summarize is, I have learned so much! The ladies worked so hard to figure out all my issues and have helped create a plan for me. I had a great experience here!” - J.B. I am walking without pain on my left knee! “Before therapy, I needed strength and mobility in my left knee after a total replacement. Since therapy, I am walking without pain on my left knee. The bend in my knee is good. I chose to return to Advanced Physical Therapy because of excellent results before with other issues. Thank you APT!” N.E. I can continue with races! “Before therapy, I was not able to bend as much as needed. I also had pain when working certain movements. Since therapy, I feel like I know where to go from here with working out. The staff made sure to give me good strengthening exercises so that I can continue with races.” - A.M.
