Mary Ellen’s Story

“I feel privileged to have been your patient, and I am so grateful for the decreased pain and increased mobility that is mine because of the physical therapy.”

My experience with Dr. Grohovsky felt like my experience with a miracle. When I first began to see him, I had felt like my life as an active person was a thing of the past because of my severe arthritis. My symptoms were rapidly worsening, so that I felt increasingly “crooked”& was experiencing significant pain, which interfered with my sleep. I had never heard of Functional Manual Therapy, but I was desperate- my Dr’s were speaking of injections, hip surgery and narcotics.

My journey to regain strength:

After 18 months of therapy with Dr. Grohovsky (intensive for a few months, but then around once a month) my pain level is a small fraction of what it was. My range of motion has significantly improved, and my quality of life has drastically improved. I’m back to walking a couple of hours at a time & planning a major hike. Thank you so much for being the awesome PT you are! I feel privileged to have been your patient, and I am so grateful for the decreased pain and increased mobility that is mine because of the physical therapy. I cannot praise it enough! The quality of my life has been significantly improved, and I just wish people everywhere were aware of the benefits they can experience with FMT.
