In the program, which is supported by Witham Orthopedic Associates and Witham Rehabilitation Services, a physical therapist conducts a thorough patient assessment to identify areas of strength and weakness.

The program includes a pre- and post-assessment report with video comparison.

Assessments will be administered at the Witham Family YMCA on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6:30 to 7:30 a.m. Additional afternoon sessions might be added, based on demand. Cost is $250 for 12 sessions over a six-week period.
