When I signed on with Accelerate ACL, I was only thinking about the physical aspect of recovery. And over the course of 8 weeks, that aspect has been fantastic. I’m way ahead of where I expected to be at barely 2 months post op. However, I completely underestimated the importance of mental health support, and without our sessions I would have been in a tough place. The mental piece of recovery was much harder than I expected – days blending together, isolation of being home, not working, loss of routine, the pain of post op recovery, etc. It’s no joke. Knowing what I know now, I would sign up for this program almost solely for the mental health aspect. The physical piece is amazing as well. Being able to talk to someone who really gets it – priceless.
