Transcription

I'm a very active woman, shooting pool, bike riding, working two jobs, volunteering, but I had this awful pain in my arm that was preventing me to do those things.

After a lot of testing, I was diagnosed with a frozen shoulder. And that's when the orthopedic doctor at Summa referred me to the Summa physical therapist. They just had so much compassion, mercy and grace for me. They were there to help me through the entire journey.

Now I'm managing that pain with the exercises, along with medication. And thank God for the physical therapist at Summa, I am now able to move my arm and go back to the activities that I enjoy doing, and hold my new grandson. They are a blessing heaven-sent, and I cannot thank physical therapy at Summa enough.
