Patient of the week: Makenna!
Makenna works as a Wheel-A-Brator operator, and in her free time, she enjoys swimming with her kids, camping, fishing, and watching movies! Makenna was injured at work when part of the machine broke away and fell, causing Makenna's meniscus to tear.
This injury was affecting a lot of Makenna's life. Her job is physical and her knee would hurt a lot, and hurt really bad. Lifting and bending was difficult and caused more pain, and all the walking she did was hurting as well. "Progress is going well so far. I'm able to walk a lot better since surgery and the help of physical therapy. I am able to handle a lot more movement. Performance Therapy is a very happy environment. They do a lot of positive pushing. I would recommend Performance Therapy to others. I am always happy to come to physical therapy!"
After recovering, Makenna is most excited to get back to swimming, camping, and work! Makenna has come a long way since she started and she is always so fun to work with!
