If there’s one thing my years as a therapist have taught me, it’s that the human body is much stronger and more resilient than we often think. The body’s ability to both heal and adapt is impressive to witness.

I have evaluated patients who initially can’t sit up in bed and can barely roll from side to side, only to discharge them two months later, laughing and joking with them as they walk out the front door.
