Balance is a big deal in our everyday world, but we take it for granted. Just think how long it took you to master walking, running, and jumping as a child. Your balance system is incredibly complex, and allows you to walk over steps, and around obstacles without thinking. However, when balance is affected, it can be difficult to perform daily tasks and activities you enjoy. Fortunately, at Fyzical Cordele & Vienna, we can help relieve your balance issues and improve neurological problems - with Rock Steady Boxing! Why should I consider boxing? Boxing can help with balance, strength, and neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s Disease. Here are some of the ways boxing can help improve your health: • Gentle movements for patients with joint or bone pain. Since boxing is not a weight-bearing exercise, it is ideal for those who may be living with a condition affecting the bones or joints. “Punching the air” is a low-impact exercise that focuses on movements of body weight on the legs, hips, and lower spine. It doesn’t add stress to the lower extremities but still strengthens them, so you can improve your balance. • A program fit around your needs. With boxing, it is very easy to go at your own pace. Patients can push themselves to reach their goals without the risk of overwhelming themselves. This helps you start off slow and build from there as your muscles strengthen and you become more balanced. • A full-body workout. Boxing uses muscles in the entire body, meaning you are exercising your entire body! This is especially important when focusing on boxing for balance issues, because a fully conditioned body makes it much easier to stand up straight, walk, and move in the ways you were meant to!

• Cognitive improvement. Boxing isn’t just beneficial to the body - it’s also beneficial to the brain! The quick movements and strategies of boxing help sharpen cognitive skills and improve alertness within the brain. With boxing comes memorization of basic punches and strategies, which helps improve brain function to make you “quick on your feet” - both literally and figuratively! This also helps those with neurological issues.

PATIENT SUCCESS STORY
STAFF SPOTLIGHT
“I had a stroke in September 2019, and at that point I couldn’t even stand up. I was eventually able to stand up and move around without assistance, but I couldn’t walk properly. Then, I got sick last year and lost a tremendous amount of weight and muscle. I was very weak when I started physical therapy. I came in and was evaluated, and Karen has been FABULOUS. My left side is what is impaired, and she has helped me tremendously with walking. Balance has been a huge factor. We are working strongly on that. I have gained a lot of strength. She has noticed things that have helped me move toward walking properly and used those to help me improve. One thing I love about FYZICAL is the new Aquatic Therapy program. The workouts in the pool and on the treadmill have been hugely beneficial to me. I just really feel there’s a possibility for success and having a normal life of activity again - or at least a much improved one.
We are so excited to share our new Clinical Directors - Stephanie Stewart and Jeffrey Wessel! Stephanie has been promoted to the Clinical Director at Fyzical Pediatric Center of Cordele, and Jeffrey also promoted to the Clinical Director at our clinic location in Vienna. We are blessed to have these two as therapists and to invest in them as leaders!
EVEN THOUGH I DRIVE FROM ALBANY, IT’S WORTHWHILE...
When I leave here, I feel like I’ve worked out and done something beneficial for me. Karen doesn’t just have me do what I can do well, but she challenges me. From the beginning, it’s the faith she’s had in me and the way she challenges me to do better. Things are hard for me, but doing the hard things is the only way I’m going to get better. I feel super comfortable here - it’s a place I know is rooted in Christian faith and God and, without that, I’m not going to make it. Now, I’m much stronger, I can actually see muscles in my legs. My left side has built up a lot. I receive exercises I can do at home to continue my improvement as well. Even though I drive an hour from Albany, it is absolutely worthwhile when I consider the ways FYZICAL has helped me.”
