Patient Success Story

“I am back to helping with household chores... I’m even keeping up with my grandkids.” I never knew a stroke would slow me down like it did. Now, I am back to helping with household chores. Usually, my wife holds my hand as I walk; I’ve been able to take off without her and even that has surprised her. I’ve been able to use the steps without holding on to the railing and I’m even keeping up with my grandkids. I’m recommending Fyzical to everyone because you never know how much PT will help until you get started!” – D. H.
