“I amplaying basketball again pain free!” PATIENT SUCCESS STORY

“I had a great experience, I was taught the correct way to do many exercises that I was not aware I was doing the wrong way. Squats are a good example of this. The way I was doing them, put more pressure on my knees. When I was corrected on this, they became very hard for me to do. Now I do single leg squats. They are still hard to do, but I have a much easier time doing regular squats. I can also say thanks to PT, I am playing basketball again pain free!” -Steven Heil
