Before my daughter
started Occupational Thearapy, she would have violent outbursts, refuse to
touch certain textures, and was having a hard time with potty training. Since
starting Occupational Thereapy with Ivan, she has blossomed into a bubbly,
happy 3 year old. She allows me to give her hugs, she'll touch just about
anything and is fully potty trained. I feel very fortunate to have Ivan in my
daughters' life. She has such an incredible bond with him. Ivan, as well as the
rest of the PTS staff are the best. They are highly trained professionals
who I believe, genuinly care about their patients and want to make a
difference. Ivan has made a difference in my daughters life as well as mine. He
has now given my daughter the chance for a bright and promising future. And for
that, I am forever grateful. - Trisha 2010
- Occupational
therapy has, for the last two years, been an important part of my
family's life. My oldest daughter receives this therapy and it has been
incredibly beneficial to her. When I first started bringing her to
Primary Therapy Source, she was tense, introverted, has difficulty in
sports and social situations, and didn't smile very often. Since going
to occupational therapy, my daughter smiles and laughs a lot, is
sometimes silly (which I didn't really see in her before), and is more
able to relax. She is even sleeping better. Occupational therapy has
had such an impact in my daughter's life that other people notice the difference. I've actually
been approached by her baskerball caoch and been told she's noticed a
huge difference in my daughter's performance and demeanor. Our home
life is affected as well. My daughter gets along with her sisters
better and is more likely to join in on group activites at home. I've
even had a few neighbors mention to me that my daughter seems
friendlier and more easy going. She's even made a few more friends,
which is not something that I would've anticipated before occupational
therapy became a part of our lives. My daughter has also
developed some skills that help her calm herself down when she's
feeling over-stimulated, so something as simple as a trip to the
grocery store has become a much easier task. In short, occupational
therapy has been a huge blessing.
- I came to Primary Therapy Source in July 2009 having
suffered a right pontine cavernous malformation which left me with
right facial drooping. Ivan Hardcastle became my occupational therapist
and began therapy, involving facial exercises and strengthening. After
only a few weeks of therapy, I noticed a big difference. Today the
right side of my face and mouth has recovered almost 100%. Thank you,
Ivan and Primary Therapy Source.
- Six months ago I was a parent on the sideline,
unable to intervene or help my child in any way to deal with his
overwhelming anxieties. Simple tasks such as going out to dinner,
or to the grocery store, were impossible luxuries meant for other
“normal” families. Now, thanks to Mandy and the team at Primary Therapy
I am a parent empowered! I now have the knowledge and tools I
need to be an effective parent once again. And, most importantly,
my son is gaining the confidence and curiosity he needs in order to be
a happy, growing child. What a relief and a joy to watch my son
participate in the world around him! Thank you, Mandy, for
giving him and his family the promise of a bright
future! -Heather Platts
- Jen …“Thank you for the great time and effort you
have given to Gage, he has made great improvements and I know that you
were one of the major factors in that improvement. Keep doing
what you do so well.”
- Seven years ago, our son, Hunter, first met Jan
Yingst. We have been working with Jan and Primary Therapy Source
ever since that time. With a diagnosis of ataxic cerebral palsy,
doctors told us that Hunter would most likely never walk. Between
Hunter’s immense determination and hard work and Jan’s optimism,
patience and perseverance, Hunter has made significant progress and now
walks independently with minimal assistance. He has also achieved
many other goals that assist him in his everyday life. Primary
Therapy Source has provided Hunter with resources, optimism and
respect. He has been given the power to dream big and never say
“never”! Terri 2009
