My Experience in Physical Therapy
I knew that surgery was imminent. The hips were past the point of recovery and my knees were not that far behind. Add that to bilateral tears in both my rotator cuffs and biceps, well I just was not in great shape. Morbid obese was the word I always hid behind when any exercise was […]
Back to Bowling 300’s
I want to take a moment to personally thank and recognize Bob Griffin and staff at 15441 S 94th Ave in Orland Park for their incredible work in my recovery. After being hit by a vehicle while riding my bicycle, I suffered a broken right wrist and a torn bicep tendon—injuries that not only affected […]
From Impact to IMPACT
I’ve always loved skateboarding. It’s something I’ve done for as long as I can remember. In fact, I could never picture what life would be like without it until suddenly I was facing that reality.

My Journey Through Concussions
I have been an athlete all my life and have unfortunately been sidelined 3 times due to concussions. The first concussion occurred when I was a senior in high school and at first, I did not know it was a concussion. I struggled with really bad headaches, dizziness, neck pain, and balance which made basic […]
My Comeback Journey
I’ve been working with Impact Physical Therapy for many years now. Liz and others on the staff are miracle workers who have gotten me through 3 major surgeries and many many injuries. I’m a master’s weightlifter who competes at the international level. Weightlifting can be a very hard sport on a not-16-anymore body so injuries can be […]
