Name: Jake

#

We like all the energy from the "Girls" We noticed Jake stands straighter, bends his left knee more, better all around gait, slimmer stomach, and straighter shoulders during and after his 3 week intensive suit therapy session. It was a very positive experience. The staff is very caring and follows though. I appreciate that they worked Jake for 4 hours a day. We received a great outline for a home program. They are Family!

 

Name: Stephanie

#

Stephanie Loves Allternative Gym! She comes twice a week for massage therapy and stretches: and within the first couple of visits the results were really amazing! Stephanie has scoliosis and other developmental delays, but because of the tight muscles on her entire right side from shoulder to foot, the scoliosis seemed worse. Her foot curves inward and she walks on her toes, but since her therapy began, the tightness is disappearing. When she steps off the massage table, I love looking at how straight and relaxed her body is. Stephanie due to the results of the therapy is more active. She enjoys walking more than before, she is more willing to help with her dressing and undressing and she has straighter posture. Our friends have also noticed the improvements. We have fun doing the exercises at home, and always look forward to Tuesdays and Thursdays, thank you Angie, Charity, and Maegan for the warm welcome, the therapy, your laughter, your singing, and all your motivation tools....All in which give Stephanie even more reason for loving it here at Allternative Gym. You are truly a blessing!  

 

Name: Rocky

#

Rocky is very social and loves people, but when it comes to therapy, he needs lots of motivation. Allternative Gym was able to provide all the motivation that Rocky needed to get him on to therapy. Angie, Charity and Megan understand kids and their need and always keep up with Rocky's expectation. For Rocky it's Rocky's way of building strength and becoming stronger physically. The kids feel love, faith, encouragement, belongingness and most of all respect that's in this gym. All these make Angie's Allternative Gym so special for our Rocky. Angie, Charity and Megan are totally dedicated to all the patients, they motivate and pushes them to their limit. Here they use human interaction for motivating kids, so toys do not matter. We are so Happy and Proud of you Rocky.

 

Name: Emily

#

I, as well as my husband and Emily's brother and sister, have noticed great improvement in Emily since she's been working with Angie and going to Allternative Gym. Emily is 17 and has CP and we were told at birth that she would never walk. Now, with the help of Angie, her staff and the suit therapy, she can now walk using a walker, sit up unassisted, ride her bike and do so much more. She is even walking on the ropes unassisted and standing independently!! Nothing is easy for her, but Angie and her staff make it fun and definitely encourage her. Angie and the staff work so well with the patients and really want them to improve. Emily also uses the Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber, which is a addition to the amazing therapy. Angie never lets her patients quit and always makes them believe that they can do it! Emily has been working with Angie for 8 years, and we were so happy when she decided to open her own gym. Emily now goes for 2 weeks about every two months, and even when she's not at the gym, it's nice that Angie sends home an exercise program so that Emily can continue to improve. Angie has a gift that I'm glad she shares with my daughter, and with many other amazing patients.... She does not give up, and so Emily doesn't either! I thank her and all her staff!!
