Nine and a half months ago, Giana Conelli’s final day of physical therapy was only a goal. Now, it’s reality.
Giana’s journey began last November after she tore her ACL during her final high school soccer season. After surgery, she began rehabilitation at our Flanders center with Physical Therapist Tori Searcy. Giana worked hard every day inside the center with the hopes of returning to the field for her freshman season at Montclair State University.
With Tori’s guidance and mentorship, Giana is poised to make her debut for the Hawks in a couple of weeks. “As physical therapists, we celebrate every milestone, but there are a few patients who remind you why you chose this profession,” Tori said.
Giana spent months celebrating little victories, working through setbacks, building trust and growing into the athlete she knew she could be again. Best of luck at the collegiate level, Giana!
