"Ready to hit the slopes"

“I thought my days of physical activity – running, hiking, skiing were over – even simple yoga was painful after injuring my right shoulder from a fall.  After trying a variety of medical professionals, I was starting to consider surgery.  My gut feeling was there had to be other options – surgery being the final one.  My daughter recommended Maccio Physical Therapy for an assessment and physical therapy plan.  After 4 sessions I am pain-free and feel strength in my shoulder and arm I haven’t had for almost 3 years.

Dr. Maccio and his team are amazing – focusing on the limitations and encouraging gentle physical therapy to get started – I am pain-free – no limitations and ready to “hit the slopes” to ski for the first time in three years – I no longer have to sit back and watch my family including my 5 and 3-year-old grandchildren skiing!  I highly recommend Maccio PT.” – Sherry

"No surgery for me, thank you!"

 “I had been living with neck pain for some time, then over the course of a few days, I lost the use of my left shoulder to paralysis. A visit to my PCP and an MRI later, I learned that I had a herniated disc in my neck.  I thought I was headed for surgery, but Maccio had helped with my low back several years earlier and I wanted to see if physical therapy with them could improve my neck pain and shoulder function.  After just a few visits, I regained full use of my arm and then we tried several exercises to quiet the mild stubborn pain in my neck.  Now at discharge, I have no pain and have an arsenal of tools to improve my range of motion and even relieve any headache pain I occasionally got when I need them.  No surgery for me, thank you!

P.S. I still use the tools (motions) Maccio Physical taught me years ago for my low back pain.  Still no low back problems!” – Angie

"I would recommend Maccio Physical Therapy to anyone experiencing pain"

 “My first experience at Maccio Physical Therapy was years ago when I suffered from severe neck pain.  After attending PT, my neck pain diminished and resolved itself as a result of continuing the exercises that Maccio Physical Therapy gave me.  

Recently, my lower back began to give me pain and as a result, I lost the majority of my motion in my back and the stiffness was unbearable.  I called Maccio Physical Therapy because of my success with my prior neck pain.  Joe Sr. immediately began evaluating me and slowly started to give me exercises not only to strengthen my back muscles but also to increase my range of motion and ultimately reduce my pain level.  

Whenever I have an issue, I instantly call Maccio Physical Therapy because of my past success attending PT and taking the tools that they give me to avoid future issues and know how to treat myself at home.  I would recommend Maccio Physical Therapy to anyone experiencing pain.” – Jennifer

"100% Would Recommend"

“I came to see Dr. Maccio after months of seeing a chiropractor with no relief or even an idea of what was happening, and what I could do to alleviate the constant pain I was experiencing.

A co-worker had recommended I try Maccio Physical Therapy and after 3 visits I had improvement.  The team here worked diligently with me.  Maccio Sr. was amazing – patient, friendly, explained things well, LISTENED to my concerns, and was always available.

I am now virtually pain-free, and I have an assortment of stretches and exercises I can do at home to stay on top of my symptoms and keep the pain at bay.  I’m so grateful to know that the Maccio Group is always here if I need them, 100% would recommend!” – Desiree

Got My Life Back Without Surgery

 

“I had been in pain with my back and leg/knee hurting at night which made me unable to sleep.  This had been going on for months.  I thought it was practically my knee and went to my ortho doctor who had given me a shot in my knee which did not work.  I thought I was going to need a knee replacement.  

A friend saw me in pain golfing and said I needed to go see Joe who helped her.  So I gave it a try and it was a success with the exercises.  I am now no longer in pain, do not need a knee replacement, and can go back to all the activities which I enjoy.  Joe, I cannot thank you enough for giving me my life back and without any surgery.” – Susan

"Getting Back to Hiking"

 “I came in with a knee injury that left me unable to sit or walk down the street without severe pain.  I noticed a difference after just a few sessions with Lindsay.  The stretches and exercises she gave me eased me back into movement.  She adjusted my therapy according to my individual needs, helping me work towards my goal of getting back to hiking.  After working with her prescribed exercises and stretches for 3 months, I am back on the trails and am able to walk, hike, and sit with no pain.  What I learned in our sessions wasn’t only helpful in my recovery but is useful knowledge that will help me to prevent future injury.  Thanks!” - Laura
