Once again, new day, new people, new injuries, new stretches, new exercises. I met three new people today, and the most interesting one to me was a man who ran Spartan Races and shattered his patella. He said his knee fractured in four different places, and he is starting his recovery process right now. It sounds awfully painful, but he was adamant about getting back into exercising and racing. There is a certain passion for exercise at Raleigh Orthopaedics, and nobody ever settles for less. They all want to recover to get back into their normal and healthy selves of course, but they take their injuries not as a devastating moment in their lives but something to build off of. I really like how the patients are open-minded and enthusiastic about going to a place that remind them of past obstacles.
Also, I saw Ruhi again back for her weekly visit. Here, she is having fun while using a trigger point tool to loosen her shoulder and traps.
