JoAnn’s Story
I have dealt with pain most of my life but this past winter I developed pain in my low back and hip making it difficult to move or walk. I took to my recliner thinking I must have injured it and needed rest. No improvement came after several doctor appointments with scans and tests. Months earlier I had attended a workshop at New Life and decided now was the time to give them a try. I needed help. I WANTED help. When I left Jordan that first day, I was so excited and hopeful! He assessed my situation and listened to my story. We made a plan and goals together. He coached me along the way. He helped me get my confidence back and helped me gain control over the hear of hurting myself… I am now walking, back to household chores, playing with my grandchildren and doing most activities with little to no pain. Thank you, Jordan! Thank you, New Life! It is a new life.

Carolyn J’s Story
When I first started at New Life PT, I was in a lot of pain, had limited motion, and was discouraged. I realized I had overdone it with shoveling; it had taken a toll on my shoulder and arm. I was having trouble reaching up into cupboards as well as reaching behind me and overhead. Because of the PT, I have restored range of motion! I was having trouble sleeping due to the pain and also had some loss of feeling and tingling in my hand. Mary Rose did a assessment. She encouraged me that is was hopeful and the injury was not as bad as I thought it was. Then I began work with Taylor, who was upbeat, very pleasant, and “tailor-made” the exercises just for me. They were not too difficult, but challenging enough so that I was making progress!! I looked forward to the sessions, because I cold tell I was improving! So grateful to be out of pain and have restored my range of motion! I appreciate them both helping me make the transition back to LaVita so that I can continue using the equipment over there. THANK YOU so much Mary Rose and Taylor!!!
