“Grace is a volleyball player and a catcher in High School. This is her senior year and was having knee pain. Our pediatrician got her right in to see Kelsey at TRUE PT and she just got stronger. Kelsey was excited about the exercises she could show Grace to improve her game and strength. You could see her mind working while in session. Kelsey made it fun even though she was teaching Grace a life long skill. Kelsey is such a blessing! Thank you so much! HUGS!"
