Teaching in Rehabilitation

on Monday, January 15, 2007


Part of our physical therapy practice in Arizona, we have the opportunity to work with manufacturing, warehouse, sales, and delivery drivers from an industrial plant located in Casa Grande, Phoenix, Tucson, and Deer Valley here in Arizona. If you have ever enjoyed a potato chip or Cheetos (my favorite)here in the mid-west, it probably came from this plant, Frito Lay, Inc. We spent 3 hours this past Saturday morning teaching these drivers about muscle imbalance, lifting techniques, first aide guidelines, nutrition and rehabilitation. They were all very receptive to change and once they realized that our teachings and concepts would increase production and decrease stress and pain on their body, they were hooked. We have worked with Frito Lay for two years now, and have seen their safety record improve anuall. Frito Lay now is known as one of the safest companies in the nation. God is so awesome!
