The Healing Center works with a wide variety of patient's ; young and old,

hands on therapy specialized in both hand and musculoskeletal therapy. I
enjoyed my experience at the Healing Center especially the relationship I
established with the weekly patients. There is nothing quite like seeing
the difference you ate making in a patient's life as you watch them improve
week after week
