"It was such a pleasure to have my therapy here in Emmitsburg with such wonderful staff. I broke my hip in May and now I have pins in my hip. My doctor recommended therapy two days a week. Your staff was so friendly and efficient that I am now able to walk again. We like your facility so much that we have bought a membership and plan to keep fit by attending three times a week. Thank you for such wonderful facility. Emmitsburg is lucky to have such a wonderful place."
