At The Training Room
Get To KnowOur New
Hey, y’all! I’m Anne, the newest PT to join The Training Room family at theHaddonfieldclinic. I’moriginallyfromDallas,TX,and Ineverthought that I would find myself up on the East Coast but I am loving it, minus thewinters.Y’allcanhaveyourfourdistinctseasons, I’mperfectlyhappy with the “hot” and “less hot” seasons down in Texas. After taking a bit of a circuitous route through health care options in undergrad (MD, social worker, and neuropsychologist just to name a few), I landed on physical therapy as the ideal profession in which my skills, talents, and personality lend themselves best to helping patients reach their goals and maximize their potential. Ihavealways lovedtryingnewworkouts,exercises,groupfitnessclasses, andanyandalloutdooractivities,and I’m luckyenough tohavefounda profession that not only supports these endeavors but also allows me to share this passion and enthusiasm with my patients as we jointly create a plan to get them back to their lifestyle.

Anne’s Favorite No Bake Energy Bites Recipe
Here’s my go-to recipe for a feel-good, on-the-go snack between working out, runningerrands,andmeetingupwithfriends:NoBakeEnergyBites(adaptedfrom Gimme Some Oven https://www.gimmesomeoven.com/no-bake-energy-bites/)
Ingredients: • 1 cup dry old-fashioned oatmeal • ⅔ cut toasted coconut flakes • ½ cup peanut butter (or other nut butter) • ½ cup flax seeds • 1 tablespoon chia seeds • ½ cup chocolate chips of any variety • ⅓ cup honey • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions: 1. Dump all ingredients into a large bowl and mix thoroughly (using your hands works great!). Cover and let chill in fridge for 15-30 min. 2. Remove from fridge, and roll mixture into ~1 tablespoon-sized balls. Makes ~2 dozen balls. 3. Store in airtight container in fridge for up to 1 week (if they last that long).

STEPHEN GRAZIOLI, PT, DPT Cherry Hill Clinic
A quote that I try to embody in my general life and when I am working with patients is; “slow is smooth and smooth is fast.”
As a student it is easy to forget that there is a life outside of school. After graduating andpassing theNPTE licensingexam thissummer, Ihavehadsome time to reconnect with family and friends, travel, and get back to playing soccer again. With this new time to myself, I find that I am feeling grateful for my education, particularly my last 3 years as a Widener physical therapy student. It was a place where I met great people who I amproudtocallmypeers inmynewprofessionandwhere Icultivatedastrong interest in sports and orthopedic rehabilitation. Lifeoutsideofbeingastudent isarelativelynewexperienceforme.Theonlyothertime since I began college that I had extended time off was after graduating in December, a semester earlier than most of my friends of my age group. I used this time to train youthsoccerteams,workformyfriend’sfamily’srestaurant inEdison,NewJersey,and working as a PT aid in a physical therapy office in North Jersey. Looking forward, I plan on building on my foundation by taking continuing education classes this fall and winter while working in a great environment to learn and grow. As a former patient and student atTheTraining Room, I know I am going to fit in well with the community and am eager to get back in front of patients. Some of my favorite patients to work with are soccer players. Playing the sport all of my life has led me to have a strong passion and good understanding of the game. My favorite exercises to work with are ones that focus on single leg strength and stability, such as single leg squats and lunges. These are exercises I incorporate into my own workouts, in addition to a specific warm-up, to improve my performance on the soccer field and to actively prevent injuries.
When I’mnotfocusingonrehabilitation, Ienjoyfindingnewrecipesto learnhowtocook, practicing speaking and reading in Italian, and catching up with my friends and family. Steve grew up in Cherry Hill and attended Cherry Hill East High School. He is looking forward to making an impact in his home community.
