Hands on, Heads up, Hearts open, that’s one of the motto’s of Kenny Erb’s physical therapy practice. And it means that to help people heal from injury and pain you have to treat more than the muscles and sinews that are damaged. You must help their minds and hearts heal as well. And one of the ways that Kenny’s practice helps that to happen is by offering to pray with his patients. It’s a controversial practice in our day and age, but one that the people who come through his doors appreciate greatly.

So join Tom, Nate and Kenny as they discuss the intersection between physical therapy and faith.
