Parkinson’s Inspiration For Us All On ‘American Ninja Warrior’

On Fridays, we normally try to spotlight one of our many Elizabeth or Jersey City Physical Therapy success stories.  Our hope is that in seeing the amazing things that can be accomplished with Physical Therapy, that more people would see Physical Therapy the way that we do: that maintaining an active lifestyle is the way to a healthier, better life.

But today, I was forwarded this storyand I had to share this with all our readers as the ULTIMATE success story. 

Success Using Physical Therapy With A Smile

Before every Physical Therapy appointment in Elizabeth or Jersey City starts, just that simple “Hi, how are you?” with a smile has worked wonders with our patients and their outlook on how today’s appointment is going to progress.  What’s even more rewarding is that our patients are appreciative of the effort and are taking that positive attitude back out into their daily lives!

The Best Knee Pain Tool In Physical Therapy

As a Physical Therapist, there are many exercise and manual therapy tools that I have at my disposal, and as Physical Therapist that specializes in running, I have almost 2 decades of hands on Physical Therapy experience with runners and athletes of all shapes and sizes.  But for the last 3 years, I’ve been using a tool, the first ever in both Elizabeth and Jersey City for Physical Therapy patients, that has made my process so much more streamlined and efficient for knee pain

Back To Football With Physical Therapy With ZERO Pain

When back pain hits, it can be very hard to think of what to do first.  All of my Physical Therapy patients display the same feelings of shock, confusion, and depression over not being able to do the things that they were normally accustomed to doing. 

For Jaimele, that was playing football.  As a competitive weekend warrior athlete, his participation in his football league was interrupted by severe back pain due to a fall.

3 Steps To Handle Runner’s Knee

As the Summer has arrived, we look to our knees to provide us the locomotion and cushion needed for our outdoor activities.  Whether it is running for distance, jumping and hopping on the basketball court, or sprinting to the finish line, this summer is about our knees.  In this first report, I will discuss patellar tendon pain, aka runners knee. 

Balance And Shoulder Pain

One of the things that we realize is that not all Physical Therapy clinics are made equal.  We weren’t the first clinics for Physical Therapy in Jersey City and Elizabeth, NJ, and we won’t be the last.  But what we try to make sure is that we offer the best care possible, ESPECIALLY if you’ve had a bad experience elsewhere.

Getting Your Life Back With Physical Therapy

In Jesus’ case, he was unable to work for months after sustaining two patellar tendon ruptures, requiring major surgery to both knees.  Out of work and unable to walk without assistance, he came in to our clinic looking to get back to good health so that he can get back to his life.  After Physical Therapy with us, I’m happy to report that he now has his life back and is ready to get back to it.  He is truly a shining of example that with our team and hard work, you can be on your feet in no time!
