"I went to Kathy to see if she could help me return to my pre-injury form. She used Asytm therapy which broke up the scar tissue that was limiting by movement and my performance. She gave me specific exercises to address the weakness I had in my ankle and leg. After therapy with her, I was able to return shot put and discus that season, throwing better than ever. "
