What situation or injury led you to ORSI?
I was a pedestrian who was struck by a motor vehicle. I suffered a concussion, fractured eye, as well as back, and foot/ankle injuries.
How would you categorize your story?
I was referred to OrthoRehab by my neurologist because my right leg and ankle were weak and my ankles kept rolling. I was also experiencing balance issues. My goals were to strengthen my ankles and to improve my balance.
Please share your experience.
I was nervous at my first appointment. The staff at OrthoRehab were very welcoming and knowledgable. I wasn’t aware that the problems with my ankles were not only physical by cognitive. The exercises were rigorous but it was exactly what I needed to continue my path to recovery. As a former football player, I feel like the guidance from the OrthoRehab staff gave me the tools I needed, which will allow me to return to my normal physical endurance.
What goals did OrthoRehab help you accomplish?
I gained a better sense of balance, strengthened my ankles, and regained confidence in my physical abilities.
