“I was referred to Maccio PT by my doctor after 7 years of pain, discomfort, and not achieving relief with my neck, shoulder, and elbow pain. The team took me seriously, listened to my story, and made a game plan to achieve our goals of pain relief and healing. Dr. Maccio and I were able to localize my principal pain to my neck, and return much of the functionality I had lost. Moving forward, I feel that I have a good treatment plan going home to continue to pursue pain-free functionality. I am thankful my doctor thought to refer me to Maccio PT!” – Aaron

"PT was going to be the ticket"
“At almost 64 years of age, I’m dedicated to maintaining my health to the best of my ability. I hike, garden, and have been working with a personal trainer to work on strength and balance. I was working on an activity (pushing the sled) at the fitness studio but immediately felt my knee strain with too much weight on the sled. I saw an orthopedist to ensure nothing serious was wrong but thought PT was going to be the ticket – and it was. I learned exercises to strengthen my knee and realign it. I’m finished with PT now and can resume personal training. Plus, I know the exercises to do if my knee acts up again. This is my 3rd time with Maccio PT and I think they are fantastic. They provide education and information that patients can take with them.” – Cheryl
