My husband had a medical emergency that put him on a ventilator for a week; he also had many other issues that made him weak and unable to do much of anything. He also had major issues with his throat due to being on the vent. The ladies who did our home health for his recovery have been EXCELLENT. Dani (speech therapist), Jen (OT), and Cortney (PT) have been a joy to have in our home for their therapies. It’s so nice not to have to go somewhere when my husband has multiple doctor’s appointments a week. They are doing a great job with his recovery. Thank you Therapists in Motion!

My 81 year old mother has been living with me for over a year and during that time she has been receiving speech and physical therapy from Therapist in Motion. Everyone that we have encountered has been so sweet and respectful to her and she enjoys their company and is very social with them. The therapists are able to visit mother in our home which makes it so much easier for her to receive their services. They are easy to work with when scheduling their visits and they always schedule in advance so there is never any surprise visits. I definitely think that both physical and speech therapy have enhanced my mother’s quality of life. I am more than satisfied with the services Therapists in Motion have provided for my mother and I would recommend them to anyone.
