Meet Pablo, the star bartender of "Pablo's Pub"! 🍹
Pablo, also known as Paul Martinez, experienced a cerebellar stroke affecting his balance and coordination. Thanks to the incredible teamwork of our speech therapist Gaby and occupational therapist Kristen, Pablo is making amazing strides in his recovery journey.
Together, they created a unique therapy session tailored just for him, combining his bartending skills with therapeutic exercises. Utilizing the Lite-Gait, Pablo stood for 55 minutes, working on balance, coordination, and upper extremity control while making ‘mocktails’ for the team. His goal? To return to work and dance at his step-daughter’s wedding. 🕺
“Today made me feel like myself again,” Pablo shared after his session. Moments like these remind us of the power of personalized therapy and the resilience of our patients.
Join us in celebrating Pablo's progress and the incredible dedication of our Advanced Rehabilitation Institute therapy team!!
