"Thrive has saved my life! I was introduced to the practice at a function for our squadron where I won a free massage and consultation. Six months ago on my first visit, I met Dr. Brizzie and after a brief consultation he referred me into the Thrive Medical Weight Loss program. I have lost 54 pounds and have gone from a size 18 to a size 12. Getting my weight under control has allowed me to function better physically with less pain and more energy. Committing to the program helped me to make the changes that I knew I needed to make for myself. I wish all women could come to that same realization, to make time for themselves so they can Thrive like I have!!"

"I initially came to Thrive for pain related to a knee injury. As a mother of four, being laid up due to an injury was not an option. Dr. Brizzie moved quickly on a plan to restore my daily function by treating the pain, correcting the problem and strengthening my knee. Along with a regular regiment of physical therapy, he also introduced me to the medical weight loss program to help me reach maximum wellness, maintain full function, and avoid future injury. My experience has been amazing. Along with my knee healing, the weight loss has been dramatic with 26 pounds total and 1 inch off my waist and hips!"

"My attorney referred me to Thrive for evaluation and treatment as a result of a serious automobile accident that left me unable to fully function due to pain in my back and legs from injuries incurred from a deployed airbag. The medical care I received from Dr. Brizzie and the physical therapy team was top notch. Even after my initial injuries have healed, I have kept coming back to the practice for regular chiropractic adjustments and massage therapy to maintain the wellness I now enjoy."

"Thank you, Dr. Cruz and Thrive Physical Medicine for your miraculous HEALING and special care. Words are not enough to show my gratitude for the life altering treatment I have received."
Gratefully,

A few years ago, Melissa’s teenage daughter Lauren experienced prolonged severe headaches. Her daughter was examined by a pediatrician, and a headache specialist. However, they could not determine the reason for the headaches. After Lauren endured a series of countless tests such as: blood work, MRI, and Spinal Tab, the tests were unsuccessful and no explanation was provided for the continuous headaches. Finally, Melissa decided to take her daughter Lauren to visit Dr. Tomassetti at Thrive Physical Medicine. After the first visit, Dr. Tomassetti adjusted Lauren’s neck, and she finally experienced some head relief. After a couple of weeks, and regular visits Lauren no longer experienced severe headaches.
"Every time I see Dr. Tomassetti I feel great."
