Fyzical CT. Staying Active & Better Balanced

Patient Success Spotlight “I can say that I have zero leg pain!”

“I have primary progressive MS. I came in with leg pain radiating down my leg to my foot. I thought it was my piriformis muscle. My PT was able to isolate the pain to my lower back. I would never have guessed! Four weeks later with PT and home exercises, I can say that I have zero leg pain. This staff knows how to diagnose you properly and provide exercises to get you back on your feet.” - S.M.
