After undergoing a knee replacement, Maryse S. came to PhysicalOne hoping to regain her independence. She had already tried PRP and cortisone treatments before surgery, but looking back, she wishes she had known more about the kind of holistic care she’s now receiving. In just five visits, Maryse has made meaningful progress. She’s walking more comfortably and doing more on her own, though she’s still working through some stability challenges. One thing that’s helped is the addition of laser treatment, which she says has made a noticeable difference. Maryse has been open about her regrets around surgery, but she’s also focused on moving forward. We’re proud to be part of her recovery and happy to see her taking strong steps—literally and figuratively—toward feeling better every day.

Since starting therapy with us, Irvin’s progress has been extraordinary. Through expert care, personal determination, and a commitment to his home exercise program, he is now walking with a cane, living independently, and even driving again. His most recent milestones—volunteering with Shake-A-Leg and planning to adopt a dog—are powerful reminders of how movement can restore not only function, but also purpose and joy. At PhysicalOne, we are proud to be part of Irvin’s journey.

At PhysicalOne, we view movement as a powerful form of medicine. For many people, fitness isn’t just about staying in shape—it’s about preserving independence, reducing pain, and preventing future injuries. Regular, intentional movement can help improve balance, build strength, and increase joint flexibility, which are all critical to staying mobile and active as we age. Our team works with patients of all fitness levels to create safe, personalized plans that support long-term health.

April marks Parkinson’s Awareness Month, a time to shed light on the challenges faced by those living with Parkinson’s disease and to highlight supportive treatments that can make a real difference. At PhysicalOne, we believe in the power of movement—not just for strength and mobility, but for hope and healing.

Maintaining stability is essential for overall health, especially as we age. Good balance reduces the risk of falls, which can lead to serious injuries and long recovery times. Simple habits like incorporating balance exercises, strengthening core muscles, and keeping your environment safe can make a significant difference. Exercises such as standing on one leg, heel-to-toe walking, and planks are easy ways to improve stability. Regular physical activity and consulting a physical therapist for a personalized plan are also key to staying steady on your feet.
