Encore Rehabilitation, Inc. was proud to attend the Mississippi Power Employee Health Fair! We loved sharing the benefits of our specialized rehab services and how they can play a vital role in staying active, injury free and feeling your best – both at work and beyond!
Thank you to Mississippi Power for inviting us to be a part of this great initiative!
“Vivian wasn’t able to walk after wearing a hip-to-toe cast for 6 weeks and lost all muscle strength in her left leg. Physical Therapy and Therapist Ms. Riley helped her by building her muscle strength and confidence. Vivian’s dad had used Encore and we knew Encore was the right fit. The Rehab Team were kind, patient, and very encouraging.”
Vivian began her therapy journey with Encore after fracturing her femur while jumping on her trampoline. Her strength, courage, and progress have been truly inspiring!
Join us in celebrating Vivian as our Patient of the Month at Encore Rehabilitation – Andalusia!
We’re honored to be a part of Vivian’s recovery and proud to support her every step of the way!

“Physical Therapy has helped me regain strength and mobility of my leg. It has also helped me to bend and straighten my knee. Rehab has gotten me back on the path of running and lifting weights. I asked my surgeon which facility he preferred, and he said Encore Rehabilitation in Columbia, MS. This is where he’s gotten his best results with his patients. The Rehab Team is wonderful! They have a passion for their patients and have remarkable knowledge about their profession.” ~Queene Cooper, happy patient

Encore Rehabilitation Rehab Teams from across Alabama and Mississippi recently completed a Continuing Education course on Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Training.
BFR is an evidence-based technique that helps build strength, reduce pain, and support recovery after injury or surgery—all while using lighter loads to minimize stress on the body.
Regional Director Jeremy Boswell stated, “We’re excited to bring these tools into practice and help our patients recover stronger and faster!”
At Encore, we’re committed to providing our team with ongoing education and opportunities to grow—because when our clinicians thrive, so do our patients!
It’s never too late to shine a light on someone who makes a difference!
Rayanne Swift is a true Champion in Healthcare! Thank you for being such a reliable, skilled, and compassionate Athletic Trainer! We love having you with Encore Sports Medicine and Encore Rehabilitation-Andalusia!
