Physical Therapy

Jared hurt his back during a "take down" at work. (Jared works as a tech on the Behavioral Health floor at the hospital. At times when patients get violent they have to take them down. In this case the young man was trying to hurt his visitors so Jared had to restrain and "take him down" by himself while another tech got the visitors out of the room.) He now is going to Physical Therapy a few times a week to help loosen up his back so he can go back to work! Today I was off of work so I got to go along to take pictures. It was really cool.

Jared and his Physical Therapist, Darren.


Doing some therapy!


I do this same move in a Yoga DVD that I have!


This is a heated Ultra Sound! It can send waves of heat into the muscles up to 3 1/2 to 4 inches deep and not burn your skin. Gees, looks like he went to a spa and got pampered! Jared said this felt so good and was his favorite part.

Is he doing better? Did he get the ok to go back to work or does he have to tale another week off? I hope he doesn't have continued problems because of this. Good luck!
