Today was my first outpatient PT session. I am going to Florida Rehabilitation Specialists in Lady Lake. I chose this location for two reasons: Forwen Dela Rosa was recommended to me by a friend who lives in The Villages and is a very active person, as am I. I knew that her expectations for a PT would be very high. She had her 2nd knee replacement 6 weeks or so ago, and told me how pleased she was with Forwen. The second reason, is that it is very close to home.
So, I met Forwen today, and we began. He measured the range of motion, and I am already on the high side at 2 degrees to 120 degrees, the desired ultimate range being 0 - 120. He thinks I should be able to get to 125 or 130 before we finish, and maybe -2. He does not think I will need PT very long, a month at most. He worked me, and I am sore this evening for the first time. . .a good kind of sore.
I'll be going three times a week.
