Testimonials:
“I first encountered Cornerstone Balance & Therapy Center in 2012, right after my right knee was replaced following a whitewater canoeing accident. I chose the practice because it was close to home and someone from the Abingdon area recommended Candy Moore and her staff to get me back in shape for the great outdoors. That first experience with Candy, Stephanie and Robin resulted in two things. First, my knee healed completely. Second, I looked forward to going to every physical therapy session because of the character and atmosphere the staff created for patients. It felt like a family rather than having a corporate practice feel I’ve experienced elsewhere in Virginia and other states. Just this past year, I returned to Cornerstone after back-to-back, reverse shoulder replacements. I was happy to see some old friends and meet new staff, nearly all of them interacting with me while I healed. After six months of therapy, I have regained use of both my shoulders. I am also glad to know that the same feeling of being part of a family rather than just a patient is stronger than ever. At Cornerstone, you get results while having fun! ”
