Hey Steve, Bryan, Sean, Thanks for getting me back on track chasing my goals – when I make my first U.S. team, Rehab United will be there with me! -Tom Kloos

First of all, I'm so sorry that I didn't e-mail you sooner. I play for Leahi and we played in the U-19 gold division at the Thanksgiving Surf Cup. I'm the girl whose knee was injured in the first game and you checked it out and thought that it could possibly be a partial tear in my ACL. Well, I went to an orthopedic on the 7th of December and after the doctor moved my leg around a bit, he knew that I had torn my ACL. Although my doctor knew that my ACL was torn, he made me get an MRI just to see if anything else was wrong. This past Monday, I got the results from the MRI and I definitely tore my ACL, I have bruised bones (from the collision), and I might've torn a little part of my meniscus (on the outside). I get surgery on the the 27th of this month. I just wanted to e-mail you to let you know that you're predictions were right. I also wanted to thank you for taking good care of me up there.” Take care!!

So, I am finally settled in DC! Missing San Diego , but enjoying the change so far. …I wanted to say thank you for the work you guys do. It is incredible the difference I can see and feel just in the muscle groups used. But- beyond the program and the approach, you guys all have a great attitude and make it a real pleasure (that's despite the crazy soreness) to be there and to get better. |
This is Kalley Mahaffey of the U16 NWN at Surf Cup and i just wanted to thank you and everyone else (especially sean also) for all the help you guys gave us at the tournament. You guys were so great and every one of us was sooooooo thankful you guys were there. we've never meet trainers we actually enjoyed going to see, or even trainers that we liked. haha. but honestly we couldnt have *won the tournament* without you guys and i just wanted you to know that we appreciate it more than you know. So thanks and i hope we meet again sometime (maybe next time i wont need to be taped, stretched, bandaged, or massaged) :o)” - - Kalley

Thank you so much for making it possible for me to play in the championship game. Without your help and support I wouldn't have been able to slide tackle as many times as I did. It's amazing the work all of you do. I'm really looking forward to receiving the information you are going to send us so that I can stay healthy during my soccer career. YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!” Thanks, - - Alex Kirk #16 |

So very glad to hear from you! I am sorry we have not come to any Function Junctions but we have soccer practice on Wednesdays. I love that you have reduced the price and when practice stops, we will be coming more often--hopefully bringing friends. We had our first game this weekend. It was not pretty as we have a very inexperienced team. Only Marshall and one other boy have 2 yrs of experience. We have three that have never played. The difference in Marshall 's playing though is night and day. He still falls down more than most but part of that is because he plays soccer with his whole body and is very "aggressive." He is faster and changes direction more quickly and easily. If only his body could keep up with his brain! :-) He is now running one day a week with me and is up to 35 minutes. When soccer practice drops to once a week, he will probably run two days a week with me. And we finally found him some real "workout" shoes that he likes! The game next weekend is at 1:00 . I hope to drop by one day this week with a copy of the schedule and to say hello. Give our best to Bryan, Steve, and your mom. “ - - Caroline |
See you later, |
This is Jessica # 9 on the nationals, from Seattle ... I don't know if you remember but I was the one with the strained hip flexor. I really appreciate the help you and your buddies offered. I can honestly say I don't think I could of been able to play with out your help. Hopefully you can send me a list of Physical Therapists that would be most helpful for me, and maybe some exercices. I would appreciate that very much. THANKS for everything!!” - - Jessica |
“Hey Bryan , My name is Jim Thomas. I am the head coach of the NWN Fusion. You worked on Jill, Kalley, Lilly, Alex and Jess from my GU16 team this weekend. We were fortunate enough to win the tournament this weekend. I wanted to let you know that the contributions you and your staff made to the team over the last few days was a huge part of our success. I took this team over 18 months ago, and we are working on many of the habits it takes to maintain a top end athletic body. I would love to hear from you, and will absolutely check out your website for further tips.....it's all well and good having National standard players....doesn't do you much good if they are sitting on the sideline injured!! Thanks again for your efforts....this girls really took to you, and you made the experience a far more enjoyable one.” - - Jim Thomas Northwest Nationals Fusion |
Much love to all of you and the best of luck, Happy Holidays. - - Familia Valenti |
