“I cant thank them enough!” “I was approved for a knee replacement 2 years ago when I was 72. I chose G3 PT instead. Mike and his great team have treated me weekly since then with compassion and in a friendly environment. I continue to play 10 hours of high-level pickleball per week and other physical activities with limited distress. My knee surgeon now says I could have up to another 2 years before knee replacement. I can’t thank them enough.” - David E.

At the risk of making this newsletter look like a newspaper obituary, I have more sad news to talk about. Our beloved G3 family member, Joe C, passed away in early April. Joe was an inspiration to all of us at G3, patients and employees alike, as he fought so valiantly through his recovery from back surgery, achieving his goals of regaining his very active life. Joe always had a smile on his face and a joke on the tip of his tongue. He made us all laugh, and was a role model to us all, especially regarding how to squeeze every drop of life out of an eighty year old body (with a thirty year old mindset). We miss Joe dearly, but his spirit lives in all of us.

Healthy Recipe Chicken With Avocado Sauce

Ingredients

• 4 (4 oz) organic chicken breasts • 2 tbsp blackened seasoning • ½ cup organic plain, Greek yogurt • ½ organic avocado

• 1 tsp organic lemon juice • ½ tsp garlic powder • 1 tsp salt • 2 tbsp organic green onions, thinly sliced

- Michael Van Gilder, PT, DPT, FAFS

Instructions Place the chicken breasts and blackened seasoning in a large resealable bag. Seal and shake a few times to evenly coat the chicken. Lightly coat a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until cooked through, 4-6 minutes per side. Meanwhile, in a food processor, combine the yogurt, avocado, lemon juice, garlic powder, and salt and pulse until smooth and creamy. To serve, top each chicken breast with 2 tablespoons of the creamy avocado sauce and garnish with ½ tablespoon green onions.
