Movement is the Medicine
Manage episode 280463545 series 2363276
An enthusiast for movement, Michelle Laging became a fitness instructor and worked part-time for both 24-Hour Fitness and Curves in 2003. After shadowing a few Physical Therapists, it became obvious that this was the path she needed to pursue to fulfill her professional needs. Michelle graduated from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in 2008 as a Doctor of Physical Therapy and began her career at Denver Health Medical Center in the late fall of 2008.
"My 10-years of experience in inpatient care at Denver Health has been robust and extremely rewarding. Knit within the fabric of my experience on the orthopedic unit, medical-surgical units, and acute rehabilitation, was the development and delivery of Physical Therapy services to individuals with eating disorders. The past 3-years were solely dedicated to the unique needs of these individuals admitted for medical stabilization at the ACUTE Center for Eating Disorders by Denver Health. As I reflect back on my wonderful experience at Denver Health, I can truly say that my work both on the ACUTE unit and the acute rehabilitation unit allowed me to live my dream to “make a difference in people’s lives”.
