After coming across The Perfect Step on social media I was shocked to see all of the amazing work that they do with the paralysis community because it was like nothing I had ever seen before. On the first day of my evaluation at TPS I was stood up for the first time since my diagnosis by my specialist at the Red Cord machine - and I knew from that moment that I would be pushed to my limits here to help me to walk again. I have made significant progress in my recovery since starting to attend therapy at The Perfect Step. I have been able to come out of my depressive state and be more confident with myself and go out and do the things I loved to do before my diagnosis. I cannot thank The Perfect Step enough for the positive impact you have made not only on my recovery, but also on my family as well. I continue to break barriers that doctors told me I would never do again. Thank you TPS for instilling hope back into my life!
