Tiger Woods Back on Top
After Knee Surgery
by Gary Karkuff, PT The golfing world
watched in awe as Tiger Woods pivoted on his left knee
in a victory celebration leap after winning the Arnold
Palmer Invitational in Orlando, FL on March 29.
This come-from-behind victory marked his successful
comeback after undergoing ACL (anterior cruciate
ligament) reconstructive surgery last summer. The
American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) credits
intensive physical therapy treatment with his successful
return to the PGA.

Physical Therapy is
Effective, Low-Cost Solution to Neck Pain, Study
Shows
By Stu Basom,
PT
The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA)
is urging patients with musculoskeletal pain to consider
treatment by a physical therapist, in light of a new
federal survey showing that more than one-third of
American adults and nearly 12 percent of children use
alternative medicine - with back and neck pain being the
top reasons for treatment. Results of the 2007 survey of
more than 32,000 Americans were released December 11 by
the National Institutes of Health's National Center for
Complementary and Alternative Medicine.

Success Story, Betty
Hepfer
by Betty
Hepfer
I never believed in therapy. I couldn't see
where therapy would help something that you would have
the rest of your life. I kinda, sorta, "argued"
with Ken about this. He finally convinced me to
try it.

Remember, you have a choice when your doctor
recommends physical therapy. Make
First Choice Rehab YOUR first choice!
Sincerely, |
 "We appreciate your
business and the best compliment to us is referring a
