Long Island Proud: Complete Rehab & Sport Brings You Back
I thought I would never use my arms regularly again. Now they are back to normal!

I woke one morning in January 2020 and I had lost 80-90 % of the strength in both my arms and no doctor really knew why. Many blood test later there still wasn’t a definitive explanation however it was suggested I try physical therapy.
I chose Complete Rehab & Sport and made an appointment with Director Christopher R. Schwenker, P.T. At their 672 South Country Road, East Patchogue location.
He looked at my doctor’s notes and created a regimen of exercises that I proceeded to do twice a week for 10 weeks. Slowly but surely the strength came back.

I was very impressed with certified fitness trainer Christine Bottari (nicknamed Sister Christine Anastasia) whose fun but disciplined supervision of Mr. Schwenker’s plan for my full recovery was wonderful.Also attending to me was Michele Bauer, physical therapy assistant (PTA) who did most of my stretching out.
I am happy to say it all work out superbly and was done in a safe spaced environment.
