Volunteering and giving back to the community has always been a big part of Becky’s life. At Mizzou, Becky participated in PhysZou, the school’s pro-bono physical therapy clinic, serving the uninsured and underinsured members of the community. She also volunteered at NeuroPhysZou, treating clients with predominately neurological conditions.

Becky’s other hobbies include hiking, DIY crafting, and reading. Becky is also a big movie buff. Her favorite movie is Saving Private Ryan.

My pain was very great when I started therapy. The staff was helped me work through the pain. I am thankful my balance has greatly improved and swelling and pain is almost gone completely. I’m thankful I can walk again. Very positive experience for me.

When I came in for my first visit a few days after my surgery my knee bend was only 85º. Now at my last visit my bend is 115º! I am doing stairs almost normally, it is awesome! I am using my stationary bike at home just like I did before.
