Thanksgiving is a time to reflect on all our blessings. We are so thankful for our wonderful patients and staff, for opportunities to help others, and for families who understand and support us. Wishing you the best Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is a time to relax, reconnect, and enjoy being with family and friends. But for many people, mobility challenges can turn those joyful plans into worry. Visiting someone else’s home can bring up questions like “Will I be able to get up the stairs?” or “How will I manage the bathroom?”—concerns that sometimes lead people to skip gatherings altogether.

Missing these moments doesn’t just take away opportunities to make memories; it can leave you feeling isolated.

At Therapy Achievements, we’re here to help. Our physical, occupational, and speech therapists can work with you to problem-solve mobility challenges and create practical strategies that make holiday visits enjoyable and stress-free.

Let us help you feel confident, comfortable, and truly Home for the Holidays.

Spending time with family is a cherished holiday tradition. Limited mobility can create stress, with a little planning, you can participate fully.

November is Caregiver Awareness and Memory Loss Awareness Month.
Caring for someone with memory loss can be incredibly rewarding—but also incredibly challenging.

At Therapy Achievements, we honor the caregivers who show patience, strength, and compassion every day. And we’re here to support individuals living with memory loss, too.

Our speech therapists can help with practical strategies to improve communication, simplify daily tasks, and structure your environment so you can stay independent for as long as possible.

You’re not alone. We’re here to help. 💙

Differentiating normal aging from other memory loss conditions helps with caring for individuals with memory loss and making changes to prevent decline.

📣Hey lymphedema therapy fiends -
We've got a patient with a rare disorder - Morel-Lavallée lesion. I found journal articles 📖 advocating use of compression therapy 🤕. But I can't find anything about the efficacy of using Complete Decongestive Therapy. To me it only makes sense that if compression helps, CDT is even better 💪. Does anybody have experience with this? Thanks!
Karen
