💪🏻🏔️ Celebrating PT month by highlighting some of our amazing therapists. Meet Lori Francoeur, PT from our Ahwatukee clinic. She recently hiked Mt. Kilimanjaro. "Travel is education for living! (I stole this from Anthony Bourdain). To do the types of trips that I like to do (physically challenging), I have to be in good shape and overall health. Fitness and health has always been important to me. Through Physical Therapy, I am able to help my patients get out of pain, improve their fitness/health, and help them to get back to what they love to do.
