Physical Therapy

   My physical therapist’s name is Jennifer. I saw her regularly for a couple months. I no longer see her often, but she is still there if I need her. The primary reason for her was to work on my ankle strength and balance. I remember doing heel raises and balancing on one foot. I did a lot of the exercises myself and that’s why I didn’t need a physical therapist that much. I was doing bench presses, curls, sit ups, pushups, walking, and running. At first they wanted me to take it slow, but I really wanted to push myself. I felt like they were holding me back and I wanted to improve quicker. 
   According to “15 Best Physical Therapy Exercises for Brain Injury Recovery” from FlintRehab, they recommend doing hip rotations, quad exercises, hip abductions, lateral trunk flexors, weight shifts, seated trunk extensions, Romberg stances, calf raises, forward punches, staggered stances, core toe taps, pushing movements, shoulder abductions, bicep curls, and shoulder flexors.
