the many
remarkable ways in which the mind
and body respond to trauma or injury
and set about healing. By understand-
ing and harnessing these mechanisms,
physical therapists can facilitate recov-
ery in ways that tile ill and injured may
never have imagined. One such healing
mechanism was recently uncovered by
researchers who were examining right-
handed individuals with broken right
arms. MRIs of their brains showed that,
within 16 hours of their injuries, their
brains began to shift their resources so
that they could better utilize their left
hands. Whether the observed increases
in brain gray matter are permanent has
yet to be determined. In any case, the
physical disabilities of patients suffer-
ing from injuries or disease. Ask you
physician if you could benefit from
physical therapy. To schedule an ap-
pointment call SHELTON PHYSI-
CAL THERAPY AND SPORTS
MEDICINE at (360) 426-5903. We

viding physical therapy care. You'll

Kati Ct., Ste. B. New patients are

wailable and most insurance plans are

P.S. The finding mentioned above
helps underline how much a patient's
attitude and determination may play
roles in rehabilitation and recovery.
