“I came to Maccio Physical Therapy
with pain in my thumb and wrist, bad enough to interfere with my job, my
leisure activities, and even my sleep.
After a few visits, there was a huge improvement thanks to the exercises
I was given. I am happy to say that as
of today I am back to normal – I can use a mouse, hold a video game controller,
and go for a bike ride without pain. I
couldn’t be happier with the results and will absolutely return should I ever
need to in the future.” – Derek

"Telehealth Worked For Me"
"I contacted Joseph Maccio about two weeks ago, in mid-April
due to significant lower back pain due to a wrong movement in my back, some extended construction work that required bending, and intense virtual
teaching that required long periods of sitting, I was having pain in my lower
back that made it difficult to sit, stand and even lay down. I wasn’t sure how
to deal with it as nothing seemed to feel right. Due to Covid-19 I hesitated to
go to the doctor and tried to find videos online that gave advice, when I
realized some things helped while others made things worse. I have gone to Maccio
in the past and realized they might be doing telehealth and can recommend
the correct treatment.
In the telehealth sessions we analyzed the movements I was
having trouble with and when they got better and worse, and found the correct
course of action. In less than a week I saw a drastic improvement, and
now I think I am back to almost full function. I highly recommend Maccio and
find that the Tele-Medicine worked very well for me, especially under the unique
circumstances we are in."
