🌟 Testimonial Tuesday 🌟
Healing isn't always a straight path. Sometimes life brings new challenges, and that's okay.
One of the unique things about the Carroll Wellness Center Restoration Clinic is that many participants have returned over the years as new health challenges have arisen. While we cannot guarantee re-entry into the program due to funding availability and waiting lists, we encourage anyone who could benefit from our services to have their healthcare provider submit a referral. If space is available, we'd love the opportunity to help.
This week's testimonial shares one participant's remarkable journey through diabetes, breast cancer, surgery preparation and recovery, and life's unexpected hardships. Her story is a beautiful reminder that no matter where you are on your health journey, it's never too late to start again. 💙

"My first experience with the Restoration Clinic was because my diabetes was uncontrolled. The nutrition counseling helped me develop healthier eating habits, and my exercise program was extended so I could continue making progress toward my goals.
Later, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and needed a double mastectomy. I was welcomed back into the program to help me improve my strength and overall conditioning before surgery. After my surgery, they designed safe exercise program to help me regain mobility, rebuild strength, while continuing to work toward better diabetes control.
More than four years later, after losing my husband, my diabetes became uncontrolled again. Around that same time, I fell and fractured my shoulder. Once again, I was welcomed me back. They created an exercise program that met me where I was, helping me safely improve my overall fitness, get my blood sugar under better control, all while I was in PT for my shoulder
I continue to improve every day. I have learned so much from everyone at the Restoration Clinic, and I truly appreciate all they have done for me."
