“It’s great to have my life back!“

Years of wear and tear on my body lead to progressive osteoarthritis in my knees which became progressively more painful and crippling over the past 2 -3 years. My knees were severely limiting what I could do and affecting my quality of life. Stairs and uneven surfaces were almost impossible and walking more than 1/2 a mile at most was out of the question. I had bilateral total knee replacements on 3/5/19 and I’m so glad I did. I asked for a PT referral on Facebook and a few friends mentioned CBPT. I went elsewhere for my hip a few years ago and wasn’t 100% happy there so I wanted to try someplace new. I am glad I found Coury & Buehler Physical Therapy!
Working with Jonathan Ebert, PT, DPT was awesome. He always listened to and addressed any issues or concerns I had. Many of his hands on treatments were effective on some areas that needed to be more specifically addressed. I was able to make progress in my recovery fairly quickly due to the PT exercises and treatments. I’m am very pleased with my entire PT experience at CBPT.
Recently, I got to enjoy Sea World with a friend and walked 4.5 miles! I’m enjoying doing more with my family, friends and dogs! After physical therapy, I was able to get back full range of motion and add strength and stability in my knees. For almost the last two years, I have had friends handle my dog in dog agility and herding competitions. Now, I am able to do it myself again! I ran my dog, Tuck, in agility at about 3 months post-op in a competition and we had qualifying runs! Just last week (4 months post-op), I was able to work Tuck on cattle (herding training practice) at a friend’s ranch! It’s great to have my life back!
