John is back doing the things he LOVES ~ Encore Rehabilitation-Phenix City

“When I first came to Physical Therapy, I wasn’t excited because my injury didn’t let me do the things that I loved to do, but after I got through the first session, I realized everyone here is so good and treated me like family. Encore was recommended by everyone, and I would also recommend Encore because of the family atmosphere. The Rehab Team is very kind and helped me go back to doing what I love!” ~ John Stecenko, happy patient

Congratulations to John Stecenko, Patient of the Month for Encore Rehabilitation–Phenix City!

John brought dedication, hard work, and a positive attitude to every therapy session. Through his commitment to the rehabilitation process, he made excellent progress and was able to return to the activities he enjoys most.

We are so proud of John’s success and wish him the best!

Walking again! Mrs. Wilson is Patient of the Month for Encore Rehabilitation-Andalusia

We are incredibly proud to celebrate Mrs. Melodie Wilson as our Patient of the Month at Encore Rehabilitation – Andalusia!

Six months ago, Mrs. Wilson came to us facing a massive challenge. After undergoing surgery to remove a tumor behind her knee, nerve involvement left her with severe nerve damage and constant chronic pain. A doctor even told her that she would most likely never walk again.

Mrs. Wilson refused to accept that limitation, and so did we!

Thanks to her incredible determination and the consistent, positive encouragement of her physical therapy team, she is defying the odds. Not only is she improving every single week, but she is WALKING!

“I look forward to my visit every week,” Mrs. Wilson says. “I am always pushed to do my best! I wish I could go every day because of the atmosphere of the clinic! They care so much about their patients and I just love it there.”

Mrs. Wilson chose Encore because she heard great things about our care and had previously trusted us to care for her two sons during their high school sports days. 

Thank you for choosing Encore, Mrs. Wilson! We appreciate your hard work and dedication to your recovery!

Amazing Success for Ms. Hill with Encore Rehabilitation-Mobile West!

The comeback story of Ms. Shelia Hill is nothing short of AMAZING! 

Ms. Hill came to Encore Rehabilitation-West Mobile with neck and back pain, along with multiple health issues that had been worsening and slowly disabling her over the past two years. 

When she started Physical Therapy, she was unable to drive, depended on a walker for mobility, needed help getting dressed each day, and was only able to do very minimal cooking and cleaning. She would get short of breath just walking from room to room. She could not get up from the floor if she fell or even pick up a small object from the floor without severe back pain from bending.

Ms. Shelia was struggling daily with things many of us take for granted.

Ms. Shelia has completely turned her life around with Physical Therapy!

She dedicated herself to her rehab, stayed diligent with her home exercise program, and after about a month of rehab, she was able to join a gym and continue exercising beyond her home program.

Today, Ms. Shelia is able to cook, clean, and dress herself independently! She is no longer using an assistive device and is walking regularly for exercise! She can now get up and down from the floor without assistance and has found joy in movement again!

Ms. Shelia has surpassed every original goal we set and continues breaking her own personal goals. We are so proud of how far she has come and cannot wait to see what she accomplishes next.

Keep it up, Ms. Shelia!!! We wish you all the best! 

~Need help with strength, balance, and completing everyday activities? We would LOVE to assist you in your wellness journey!
