Client TestimonialsBack in 2004 I had breast cancer surgery which included removing all of my lymph nodes in my left arm. As typical after this type of surgery the lymph system does not function properly and fluid builds up my arm would become swollen and look flabby. My doctor recommended Cherisse Sansone as a specialist in Lymphadema Treatment. After one treatment I could see and feel a difference. After several treatments the arm was back to normal with no discomfort. I had looked for someone with this type of training and could not find anyone in the area with this specialty. If you have had surgery that is causing lymphadema, not only breast, I would recommend that you see Cherisse! Elizabeth C. |
After hurting my back from working with my flower bed, I developed severe muscle spasms in my back, which required taking muscle relaxer’s and anti anxiety meds. Since I am unaccustomed to using these medicines, they left me feeling inebriated and out of control. I knew I needed to find a way to get over this pain and get back to work. Dr. Bethea recommended that I try physical therapy, and I chose Mountain Physical Therapy. The therapists there quickly put me at ease and began to teach me about stretching, using good body mechanics with movements and to keep better posture. After a couple of weeks with physical therapy, I was able to return to work at Rabun County Health Department, resuming most of my normal job duties, doing immunizations, family planning, children’s physicals and women’s health. I was even able to achieve my primary goal of going to see my oldest granddaughter graduate from high school, which required driving several hours. I want to thank Mountain Physical Therapy for helping me to not only get past the pain, but to allow me to get back to my life. Josie M.
