What Our Patients Say
“I felt safe–number 1! I also sensed shortly after starting therapy, that I was in experienced hands (no pun intended). I would recommend your office to anyone in need of help.”
“My MOTION hand therapist is so good at what she does. She has helped me understand the correct way to rehabilitate my hand after surgery. I actually look forward to going to my sessions.”
“My MOTION therapist does miracles! This is my second elbow/forearm she has worked on. She is very thorough and I have obtained relief I only thought possible with surgery! I have been to other therapy groups—no other therapist compares to her.”
