New Options for Strength and Balance Training

W e at The Physical Therapy Doctor are always looking for new ways to help folks. While we will always be committed to providing great one-on-one care, we are aware that this isn’t always an option for everyone. Each of us went into physical therapy because we wanted to make a positive impact on people’s lives. It breaks our heart when we hear that people are forgoing therapy because they can’t afford it or are out of Medicare visits. No one should have to suffer from a lack of mobility, no matter their situation. So, we put our heads together and came up with a novel program to ensure that you get the care you need without breaking the bank. That’s why we’re excited to offer our Strength & Balance Small Group Training Programs. Over this six-week course, our expert physical therapists will be able to teach you exercises and stretches that will improve your ability to move with confidence. The course will be broken up into groups based on your mobility needs to ensure that you’re comfortable, safe, and that you still get the individualized attention you’ve come to expect from us. Offering these courses as a group allows our therapists to help more people at once with a reduced price. If you’ve been struggling with balance issues or a lack of body strength but have been putting off therapy, please consider this course. Our goal is to teach you the skills and exercises needed to live a happy, healthy life. If these classes interest you, here’s what you can expect: ● Strength and balance combo exercises ● Upper and lower body combo exercises ● Yoga We’re proud to be able to offer these important exercises in a fun group setting. Therapists Mike Banome and Jenove James will be leading the courses, so you know you’ll be in good hands. If this sounds like the right course for you, or if you just have questions, feel free to call Felicia at 718.747.2019.
