E X E R C I S E E S S E N T I A L S TRY THIS EXERCISE TO RELIEVE HIP PAIN Recoveringfromonemajorsurgerycanbedifficult,butrecoveringfromtwosurgeries isquitechallengingforanypatient. JustaskthismonthsPatientSpotlight,VirginiaB. Virginia, a previous patient in our Riverhead location, returned several months ago to seek the help and expertise of Dr. Brooks Comeno after her surgery on both knees, simultaneously. Because Virginia has made it a point to attend all of her routine in-office therapy appointments in addition to following her customized ProCare home exercise program, we are pleased to say that she is well on the road tomaking a full recovery and we are tremendously proud of her hard work! “If Brooks wasn’t as sharp and as encouraging he is, I wouldn’t be where I am today in my recovery. He pushes me to my limits, and doesn’t take it easy on me, even on days when I don’t want to push myself.” - Virginia B.

Hip Hikes While standing up on a step, lower one leg downward towards the floor by tilting your pelvis to the side. Then return the pelvis/leg back to a leveled position. Repeat 6 times on each side.
