Fyzical Therapy and Balance Center holds ribbon cutting
ESCANABA — Marv and Jayne Szukalowski celebrated the ribbon cutting and grand opening of their new facility, Fyzical Therapy and Balance Center outpatient clinic, located at 322 North Lincoln Rd., Suite 4 (in the Watertower Center). This is the first Fyzikal clinic in the Upper Peninsula. This unique franchise is locally owned, but nationally-known. It is located next to Anytime Fitness, which is a separate franchise also owned by the Szukalowskis. At Fyzical, patients do therapy while in a harness, which helps significantly with their care, while taking the liability out of physical therapy. It also allows adaptations to be made, as the fear of falling is gone.
“This is not your typical physical therapy facility,” Dr. Jarett Sadler, Fyzical physical therapist, said. “Because they are harnessed, our patients feel safer and empowered, since they cannot fall.”
If you are interested in being a patient of Fyzical, call (906) 553-7049 or email escanaba@fyzical.com to schedule a free balance assessment, or to make an appointment with Dr. Sadler. Hours are Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Though the official grand opening was on August 22, the facility has been open since late July.
