    The 20th anniversary celebration of ProHealth serving the Peachtree City community highlighted not only the impact on individuals well-being, but the value of community fitness and friendships built through shared motivation in caring for one’s health.

    Friendships at ProHealth develop over time during weekly group Pilates classes and have even crossed the bridge from students becoming teachers. The success stories shared during the anniversary celebrations highlight just a few of the Pilates testimonials that have come from the supportive community that ProHealth nurtures for everyone who walks through the door. Here’s a few of these stories.

    Success Stories at ProHealth Physical Therapy and Pilates 

    “Prohealth has been a consistent part of my life for many years and holds a very special place in my heart. As a Dental Hygienist, I was a Pilates client here for around 9 years, and I genuinely looked forward to every session. I loved the atmosphere and had wonderful instructors who nurtured and challenged me. I witnessed positive mental and physical changes through Pilates…I have been a Pilates teacher here at ProHealth for 4 years and enjoy paying it forward to all the clients I have the honor of serving. Having been both a client and an employee, I can confidently say that ProHealth is the gold standard in the area for authentic and science-based Pilates. You will never find a more experienced, knowledgeable, and caring Physical Therapists, Pilates teachers, and Support staff…Together, they form a wellness community that is kind, fun, and supportive of one another.” – Brenda Marion, NCPT + Pilates Instructor

    “Pennie and I have known each other for 13 years! We met in the beginner group class and now it’s just the two of us – ‘The Dynamic Duo’! Friends forever! We support each other as we strive to do our best.  Pilates class twice each week ensures that I can continue enjoying activities I care about. Scoliosis, neuropathy and arthritis will not win!” – Kathy Mitchell

    “Besides being stronger and more confident, I have a new friend, only now she is an old dear friend and we love each other!” – ProHealth Client

    “I have been coming to ProHealth since 2011 for P.T. and Pilates. Karyn’s professionalism and friendship has been tremendous. Without Karyn and ProHealth I would not be able to walk!” – K. Hazelwood

    “I look forward to seeing all the familiar faces that have become my friends.” – Jackie Rodgers

    “People ask why I drive from LaGrange to ProHealth!  It is for the expert care and love!” – Jane Carpenter

    “Over a year ago I was blessed with Bethany becoming my physical therapist and I didn’t know I would gain a friend. Not only has she over-achieved my goals since my surgery on October 18, 2023, but she has given me the tools and extended weekly encouragement to accomplish my greatest tasks. I look forward to coming weekly.” – ProHealth Client

    “My therapist understood my goals and we went to work. By July 2018, I didn’t need a walker. I could walk safely on uneven ground cobblestone roads. I climbed 262 steps to the top of the White Tower at the Tower of London. I climbed stairs in many castles. Thank you ProHealth. You helped my dream come true!” – A. Hammar

    “I’ve been coming to Pilates for 3-4 years now…Through Brenda’s love for Pilates, I have developed a love for Pilates. And I have gotten an amazing friend and encourager through the process. I am very grateful for the ProHealth community and all it has done for me.” – Allison M.
