“It took me 29 years to sustain my first real injury and when I did I made sure that I made it a good one. Having destroyed my knee in a crash and then training, I was never really sure if I was going to be able to return to form again. I worked with Dr. Liz for 4 months straight and was religious in my training and following everything that she had me do. Some of the things we did were difficult but she helped me push myself to see the results that I see now. Its been 6 months since my surgery and I am back running already. I now plan to continue my training and represent the US in 2014 in the Winter Olympics in Russia."

“Over 12 years in the NFL, I learned that my body was my business and you pay for a successful career with a long list of physical issues when you retire. Liz taught me how to bring my body back from all of the injuries, problem areas and ailments from those years. Quite simply, she is the most qualified PT I have been around in all my years around the NFL. I would not be walking normally without her.”

Retired NFL Veteran (49ers, Redskins, Browns, NY Giants 1995-2007)
“I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Wheeler as our Physical Therapist during the 2009 Nationals baseball season. I have been a professional strength coach for over 30 years and found Liz to be the best PT I have ever worked with in all my years. What impressed me most was her ability to not only evaluate the athletes’ injury but to assess the underlining reason for the injury and then prescribe hands-on preventive exercises. Many of our players had chronic soft tissue problems that would impede their ability to perform at 100%. Liz would diagnose their problems (for the first time in their career) and set up a corrective routine with me; the athlete would get amazing results. Liz also has an ability to work with all medical professionals. Most importantly, she gains the trust and respect of the all athletes she works with.”
