Summary
With World Stroke Day approaching, we're chatting with stroke survivor Amanda Salgado. In this episode our host, Joe, talks with Amanda about her story which started with her training to be a physical therapist but turned into her becoming a physical therapy (PT) patient herself when she suffered a stroke. She talks about the benefits she has been experiencing from getting PT at home with Motus Nova and how she's transitioned from using their Motus Hand to their Motus Foot. She also talks about how connecting with community is helping her through recovery. How does community support help you through challenges in life? Please share on our socials!
