Today’s Francie’s Fix

Thank you to all who attended Taunya Abaya & my "Google Party" last night! We had so much fun and learned about wine and each other. I forgot to take pictures, so I'll post some that we got to see from Tara Bazilian-Chang & TBC Photo. Thank you to Addys Fine Wine & Spirits, which was an amazing location, Tyler Mulone introduced us to a fleet of Spanish wines called El Pico De Illana and a combination of an apple wine and Fireball Whisky. We learned about a real life local "retired gangster". I even bought a bottle of Maker's Mark Mint Julep to share with Teddy Roosevelt's ghost... Taunya Abaya & I are definitely planning on a repeat, let me know if you want to come next time...

What is "it" called: This week my patient told me that my session was like a car alignment. You can drive your car around and be unaware, or ignore, that the front end is out of alignment. Once his quadricep muscles were released, he was amazed at how far off he really was and how much freer and easier it was to operate his new and improved body. He had been completely unaware of how much extra work each step was while walking was until after my "re-alignment". He was trapped, constantly compensating for tight muscles that were working against him. Any of my patient remember their first "quad release"?

My patient today told me, what I do to help my patients, reminded him of stretching before wrestling or soccer, preparing your body to perform, in this case making it ready simply to move through life activities without pain. He had 80% stiffness in his knee and 60% stiffness in his low back, at our start, and left with 20% stiffness in his surgical knee and 0% in his low back after 1 treatment. There should be no pain or stiffness, ask me how!

Francie Marzec has magic hands! My son Jacob (14) came home from a basketball game laid down and couldn't move off his bed for 48 straight hours. I called the doctor and they prescribed Ibuprofen and then muscle relaxers. I called Francie. She came to our house and within an hour he was up walking around normally. What really impressed me is the questions she asked Jacob and the conversation she had with him throughout the session. He learned a great deal about his body and how to avoid this injury in the future. It is a year later and he hasn't had a single problem with his back. I recommend Francie almost weekly to people who mention their physical ailments. She has a sets her patients at ease and includes them in the quest for better health and less pain.

Francie Marzec July 2018 Testimonial by Paul L. Schaefer I went to see Francie to try something different to relieve general stiffness and increase mobility in the neck and shoulders as well as my legs. These ailments were probably due to all of the running and baseball over the years. In addition, I developed fluid build-up in my right leg post a surgical procedure caused by poor circulation.... In the past, the aches and pains of the neck, shoulder and legs were treated with your garden variety hot packs, cold packs, stretching etc. The kind of stuff that you could Google in lieu of a copay at the therapy office. So why not Francie? Within the first few minutes, she found the pain spots without me directing her to where they were. Pain quickly turned to a mild, relieving pressure. When I got up to walk around, I felt like I was walking on air. The heaviness of my legs was gone. My arms and shoulders felt free. My mobility increased dramatically in one session. Francie offers a unique approach to therapy customized just for you. The effects are incredible. It certainly isn’t cookbook medicine.

Testimonial - "My time with Francie as my pelvic floor physical therapist has been nothing short of amazing. Not only is she highly educated on this part of the body, but she is also so friendly and personable. I will never forget at the end of my first visit, her giving me a hug. That let me know that she truly cared about my recovery as her patient. She never made me feel like I was just another one of her patients, she made me feel that together we would figure out a solution for my pain. I would highly recommend Francie to anyone looking for a physical therapist. It is evident in her work, that Francie truly loves what she does. I cannot thank her enough for all of the help and relief she has given me. Thank you! Amanda Hadden"

Testimonial - "Let’s talk about the way you sleep. I came to Francie with some knowledge of where my pain was coming from. I had been to my internist, a urologist and with no relief, finally a chiropractor. All tried to relieve my back pain with their methods but unfortunately my pain remained the same. It was hovering at a six, on a scale of 1-10. Francie saidlet’s talk about the way you sleep. My first thought was, the way I sleep is impacted by my pain, let’s get rid of m...y pain and then I won’t have to worry about how I sleep. I soon found out, with Francie’s help that my pain was not a one-shot issue. It was more complex. I tell Francie she has magic hands. After two sessions of Francie’s therapy, my pain is now down to a little stiffness in the morning and I am still working on it. It is not easy for me to articulate exactly what Francie’s therapy is but I will say that it is more of a 360 approach. She has taken her training in many areas of physical therapy and rolled them into her own. The physicality of her work is hands-on, much like a massage therapist. She identifies the source of the pain and physically works through it with her hands. Her approach includes how you walk, talk, stand and sleep. And most of all she educates you on what you can do through exercise to continue what her magic hands have done. I would recommend Francie to anyone and everyone who suffers from physical pain. Her knowledge, experience and approach is a game changer. Thank you, Francie! Warm Regards, Arlene Kaye Wasserman" See more
