“Physical Therapy has helped improve my movement and strength, and I no longer have pain. Encore came highly recommended by my son after his injury. I would recommend Encore because proper care is important for movement and strength.”
~ Nelson Workman, happy patient

Congratulations to Mr. Nelson Workman, Patient of the Month for Encore Rehabilitation–Pelham!

Following a reverse shoulder replacement, Mr. Workman came to Physical Therapy ready to work toward getting back to the activities that matter to him. His commitment has paid off, and we’re excited to celebrate how far he has come!

We’re proud of your hard work, Mr. Workman, and thankful you trusted our Pelham team with your care. We LOVE to see you move!

Encore Rehabilitation–Semmes Celebrates the Next Generation of Physical Therapists

There’s something special about seeing one generation of Physical Therapists help prepare the next!

Peyton Young, a DPT student at the University of South Alabama, recently completed her first clinical rotation at Encore Rehabilitation–Semmes, wrapping up her first year of PT school.

Peyton did a fantastic job throughout her rotation, bringing a great attitude, a strong desire to learn, and an enthusiasm for physical therapy that made an impression on our team. We know she has a bright future ahead of her!

Peyton’s Clinical Instructor was Encore Rehabilitation–Semmes Clinic Director Heather McNaughton, PT, DPT.

This summer marks 19 years since Heather graduated as a member of the University of South Alabama’s first DPT class, and she has spent approximately 17 of those years serving as a Clinical Instructor.

We’re proud of Peyton for reaching this milestone and grateful for clinicians like Heather who continue to invest their time and experience in the next generation of Physical Therapists! Thank you, Heather!

Congratulations, Peyton!
