The physical therapy treatments at FOCUS Physical Therapy have significantly improved my overall health. I am moving now without the discomfort that I have been experiencing and getting back to the physical health that I have been accustomed to for years.
It’s great feeling healthy again and to have a full range of motion in my hip as well as being able to sit comfortably again. The home exercise programs at FOCUS PT were targeted to provide notable results, were easy to follow, and they did not disappoint.
Thanks to Scott and the staff at FOCUS PT in Bend, OR for getting me back into shape with proper exercises without meds. The satisfaction and the exercises related to preventative maintenance that I can perform in my home has been remarkable!
