Reese’s Scoliosis Journey
Reese started having shoulder pain in April 2018. As her mom, who has been an occupational therapist/certified hand therapist for almost 20 years, I was sure it was due to her playing tennis many hours a day for many years. I assumed her rotator cuff was inflamed and that she would need a break from […]
Teletherapy is great!
Due to Covid-19, like everyone else, I had to stop my PT appointments. After several months, APT informed me that Medicare was now going to pay for Teletherapy. I immediately “signed up” and am so thankful I did. The sessions are actually the same as in person. My therapist, Molly Miller, is excellent and uses […]
I learned I was not walking properly
I went to and orthopedic doctor who diagnosed my pain as a torn hamstring. At Advance PT I learned I was not walking properly and was very asymmetrical. Molly taught me how to walk correctly and she gave me exercises to do which improved my strength and stability. Molly introduced me to balloon breathing which […]
Critical Scoliosis Treatment Continues with Teletherapy
When the March quarantine hit, just as all other non-essential workers, we had to quickly adjust our schedules, cancel appointments, and for the safety of all, lock ourselves in as much as possible.

Teltherapy “has been a miracle”
I was waiting on an available appointment at Advance PT when the Covid-19 restrictions were applied. Some old pains had come back and I was in need. I then discovered that Molly was willing to do virtual visits. I was not sure how it would work , but I needed help! Well, it has been […]
Pediatric Scoliosis
We love working with Lisa and the staff. We have been coming weekly for 4 years for my daughter’s scoliosis. We are thrilled with the experience and the results. We strongly recommend!
61 Year Old Female with Scoliosis
I have been working with Susan Henning since the autumn of 2010. I am a 61 year old female whose scoliosis was diagnosed at the age of ten during a pediatric check up. I was most fortunate to avoid back surgery since my spinal growth stopped at about twelve years old. I was left with […]
Orthopedic specialist was very surprised to see such an improvement (in x-rays) in a very short period of time…..
Mrs. Susan Henning at Advance Physical Therapy (Chapel Hill) is an outstanding professional. It is very rare these days to find such a dedicated health care provider who truly cares about well being of the patient. She is very knowledgeable in physical therapy, understands the important aspects of health issues and finds the way to […]
Adult Manages Scoliosis and Kyphosis
I have a smaller thoracic curve and kyphosis as well. I have tried different physical therapists, acupuncture, massage and exercise but nothing worked for the pain I was experiencing or the progression of my curve. I felt helpless knowing that a very extensive surgery might be the only possible way to deal with this issue. […]
