Tiara came to BSPT at our Brockton Pearl Street location after two tumor removal surgeries which were causing her pain and her leg to buckle on her. “I’ve had an amazing experience with walking with crutches for over a year to be able to walk without crutches, lift my leg and do squats. I can carry my baby now, she is a year old and I wasn’t able to carry her for 6 months. Veronica is awesome she pushes me to and beyond my limit and has great conversations but keeps me focused.” Tiara’s treatment consisted of strengthening, balance activities, traction, neuromuscular re-education, home program and core stability. “The best physical therapy place I’ve ever been to, on time, orderly structured and to the point!”
