Real people, real stories
“I met Chris Carroll when I needed rehabilitation after a spinal cord injury and surgery. I came to him using a walker, and, after a few weeks of rehab, Chris moved me to a hiking pole. After six weeks, I was able to give up the pole too. Chris’s combination of spinal manual therapy and targeted exercises allowed me to regain strength in my legs and arms, and I continue to do the exercises he taught me. The exercises he designed were demanding and innovative, but varied enough to allow me to look forward to our sessions. His therapeutic skills are complemented by his warm and engaging manner—I recommend him highly.”
Suvir, Spinal Cord injury survivor
“We first met Chris about 6 weeks after my husband’s spinal cord injury, and he welcomed both of us with a bright smile and uplifting demeanor. It wasn’t long before we saw what a change he would bring to Matt’s recovery. For almost two years he has pushed Matt to the edge of his endurance and always pushed for more. He trained Matt like the athlete he always was, and helped him see that he still is. He has embraced our entire family and taught us all so much about neurorecovery and how we can be informed about and involved in Matt’s rehab. Matt has made such tremendous improvements in his recovery and his efforts and drive are a direct result of Chris’s creativity, drive, and knowledge.”
JEN, wife of SCI SuRVIVOR (T11-12)
“Chris embodies what it means to be kind, energetic, and supportive. From the moment I walked into the clinic, I could feel his positive energy and genuine desire to help me feel better.
Throughout our sessions, he was always attentive to my needs and concerns, providing guidance and encouragement every step of the way. Whether it was through gentle stretches or challenging exercises, he pushed me to reach my goals while also making sure I felt comfortable and safe. He brings a wide range of skills and modalities to the table and worked to tailor my treatment plan to ensure he was addressing all of my pain points.
But what truly set him apart was his unwavering support and positivity. Even on days when I felt discouraged or frustrated, Chris was there with words of encouragement and a reassuring smile, reminding me that progress takes time and that I was doing great. In my 20+ years of attending physical therapy, I can confidently say Chris is truly in a class of his own; I can’t recommend Chris enough.”
