Balance – Cecile Wood

I was in a horse accident in 1982 that left me with brain damage and a broken leg. In 1996, I was in a plane crash. I had several problems from the plane accident. I broke my other leg. I had to have my foot reattached to my leg. I broke my back and had to have back surgery. I was in the hospital for 4 months after the crash.
After I recovered, I still had discomfort in my back, hips, legs, and ankles. I also had a loss of balance. Anytime I would sit and get up I would have to stop and get my balance. It did not matter if I was sitting for one minute or for hours, when I got up I would have to stop and gather my balance. I never realized how much you sit and stand during the day until I started having to balance myself after each time.
I had been to other chiropractors before I started coming to "Alternacare Physical Medicine and Rehab", but I could never relax enough while I was there to get anything out of it, and stopped going for that reason. I had been to every kind of rehab there is, as well.
When I started "Alternacare Physical Medicine and Rehab" I was very comfortable there. The staff was very friendly and caring. I had been under treatment only 4 weeks before I noticed that my balance was improved. I no longer had to stop and gather my balance when I got up from sitting. I could walk better and without my cane or walker. The discomfort that I had been suffering from for years, had improved 100%.
I love the care that "Alternacare Physical Medicine and Rehab" gives. I love the fact that they combine chiropractic care as well as physical therapy and massage therapy into your treatment plan.
