Success Stories

We expect every patient to have their own Success Story to tell at the end of therapy. We collect these stories to inspire others, and we send them to each patient's referring physician to let the doctors know that physical therapy was the right prescription.

 If you've ever received a doctor's referral for physical therapy but thought it wouldn't do any good, just read below what our patients have to say.

  • Chronic Pain

    "Wow! Ruidoso Physical Therapy is the best thing that ever happened to me! After having gone to another therapy center... a couple of years ago and not feeling any improvement whatsoever, coming here was such a surprise!

    Within 3 DAYS, I could feel a tremendous difference. These folks really know their stuff!!! Not only was I helped here but was also taught many things (like stretches) that I could do at home. I very much appreciate when someone takes the time to explain the whats and whys and that's exactly what they do here. It's wonderful!

    I noticed a lack of chronic pain in my hip/lower back within ONE WEEK! It has certainly made a difference in my attitude towards life in general." -Shaula C


  • Auto accident - severe foot injury

    "After a lengthly surgery and recovery time frame, I was finally sent to Ruidoso Physical Therapy to begin my journey back to walking on a foot that was immobile for over 120 days. ....Upon arrival of my third visit, no longer was I using crutches nor surgical boot. Every session since then has been met with great improvement.

    This foot was ripped out of socket with 7 fractures and 1 crushed bone so it now houses 2 plates and 9 screws. To be able to walk after just 3 visits has been a tremendous experience. My surgeon has also been extremely impressed with my results and Ruidoso Physical Therapy's detailed reports to him.

    Truly, I believe Ruidoso Physical Therapy's goal is to get patients as close to 100% in as short a time as possible. Thank you so much for both of our success." -Rebecca A


  • Weakness

    "I had the misfortune of a perforated colon and bleeding ulcer which led to almost 3 months of inactivity and severe muscle atrophy. My physician ordered PT rehab. In about 8 weeks, I was ready to continue with my own exercise program.

    I am now better than I was before this problem started. I feel great --- my muscle mass has been restored and I have only very positive recommendations for Tanya, Rosemary and Lydia --- what a great a group of professionals.

    The auxillary staff........ I have not one single complaint and since I have a wife and daughter that are both RPT's, I feel I am an adequate judge. My unqualified recommendations to this group of professionals." -David L

     

  • Osteoporosis and one less drug!

    "I have been treated for osteoporosis for the last 6 years with no changes in my bone density. Mid December 2010, I had my 4 test and had improved by 1.5%.

    The only changes in the past 6 years were changing my calcium and Vitamin D to gel tabs and using the TurboSonic when I had time. Now I will be using it more often. Thank you Ruidoso PT, I am not taking one less med!" -Carol

    - GuadaLupe A


  • "When I came in I could hardly play golf… Now I’m playing 6 days a week!"-Glen H


  • Chronic Tendonitis

    "Lydia began using myofascial release on my right arm. I have been living with chronic tendonitis for over 5 years before finally deciding that daily pain was no longer an option.

    I was amazed how following ONE treatment, I had a release of stress throughout my body. I think I forgot what it was like to be out of pain... "-Maisy S


  • Pain

    "My pain level went from ten to zero in the six weeks of therapy. All the therapists worked so hard to get me to this point. Everyone was so good and friendly to me. I enjoyed coming to every visit. Thanks again, gang!"-Edith P


  • Neck and Back Pain

    "As of my third treatment, I feel like a new person. Pain level of 10 in neck, middle of back and lower back reduced to 1 or 2. I’m not gritting my teeth with pain and don’t feel like I need a neck or back brace. Thank you, Lydia!" -Nancy D


  • Pulled Muscle

    "I was treated for a pulled muscle in my back. After two visits... no pain. I feel great! Back to work and no problems."-Al


  • Muscle Spasm

    "I came to RPTC for relief of pain between backbone and right shoulder blade. Diagnosis was muscle spasm. Numerous exercises and muscle stimulation (electrical), ultrasound and steroid combined with a pain reliever applied directly to affected muscle has reduced the level of pain significantly."-Michael


  • Back Surgery

    "Following a recent back surgery, I was treated to receiving the absolute best care and help with a speedy recovery by the staff of RPTC. Their guidance and encouragement got me back to being active w/o the pain & discomfort felt before.

    Lydia and Tonya were very respectful of my particular needs and addressed my issues with genuine sincerity. Without a doubt, I would return if services were needed again."-Dave B


  • "I didn't know anything about Myofascial Release therapy, so I had no expectations. After one treatment I was headache free for 3 days! Amazing! Because I usually have headaches everyday and take Excedrin Migraine aspirin several times a day. I will do my best to let my friends and family know that  there is relief- without drugs! Thank-You, "

    Lori L.

  • "After 11 visits I am 65-75% stronger. This has helped me with my daily activities so much... I want to continue PT and go on strengthening my muscles."-Pilar H


  • "I would like to thank everyone here at The Ruidoso Physical Therapy Clinic for all their hard work and their kindness. Before I started coming for physical therapy I was in a lot of pain. The crew/staff here did an excellent job in assisting me. I would like to Thank everyone for their help in my recovery."

    Joseph O.

  • "Thank you for everything you have done for me. My pain is gone and my flexibility is back and I'm able to live Painfree and do the things I love to do."

    Matthew S.

  • "Primeramente doy los gracias a todas las personas que me ayudaron a salir adelante en esta parte de mi vida.

    Me fracture un brazo y despues de me fractura no podia estender me brazo y no podia hacer practicament nada, pero con la ayuda de estas personas yo puedo estender me brazo y puedo hacer lo que hacia antes de mi fractura. Les doy los gracias y que sigan ayudando gente que necessita la ayuda.

    Jesus  V.

  • "I had a really great experience here. Came in with my hand numb and painful and left with it being normal"

    Kay S.

  • "Physical therapy my first time and it worked wonderfully. I had a severely spasmed hip muscle causing considerable pain. I'm no longer a pain in the butt, at least I no longer have the pain."

    Stan T.

  • "The program was successful. Staff efficient and cordial. Upper arms and chest muscles benefited. Perhaps more helpful was renewed knowledge that I could do all exercises and not have a repeat heart attack."
