Neuroworx


This is a video created by Neuroworx for a gala they held in September 2013.  I was fortunate to be able to volunteer for this wonderful event.  Furthermore, my son Noah who is a patient at Neuroworx, was also highlighted in this video.  He happens to be the adorable baby in the pool.

We started with Neuroworx a couple months ago.  For now Noah is only big enough to do pool therapy and some floor therapy.  We have already seen some great progress though.  A few weeks ago Noah started to put weight through his hips, knees, and ankles and actually try to stand.  His ataxic (shaky movements) have also seemed to calm down dramatically as well. 

We have been very fortunate to be a part of this wonderful clinic and have such amazing therapists working with our son.  The founders Jan Black-MS, PT and Dr. Dale Hull, MD are amazing and really make you feel right at home.  The stories and successes they share give mothers and fathers like us hope that our son will be able to sit on his own one day and down the road walk.

I cannot speak highly enough of this organization and all the help they provide for those struggling with any form of mobility paralysis or limitation. 

There are many other youtube videos about neuroworx as well as a facebook group and webpage.  You should really check them out if you are looking for a brain injury or paralysis physical therapy clinic.

Dr. Dale Hull himself was once paralyzed from the neck down from an accident and today is walking around the clinic cheering others on.
