At Legacy Ridge at Alpharetta, wellness is not a one-size-fits-all concept. It is a daily practice shaped by encouragement, professional guidance, and moments that bring people together. Recently, our residents experienced exactly that during a music-based movement session led by our rehabilitation partner, Fox Therapy.
What began as gentle chair stretches quickly turned into a joyful, move-to-the-music experience. Residents followed along at their own pace, with full participation from those using wheelchairs, making the session inclusive, energizing, and genuinely uplifting.
Progress That Speaks for Itself
For many residents, these sessions are about more than movement. They represent personal milestones. Resident Joe Phillips shared how transformative therapy has been during his time in our community:
“Being here the past year and a half, I have put my best foot forward, and it is all thanks to the staff at Fox Therapy and Legacy Ridge,” Joe said.
“When I got here, I was not mobile, and I was in a wheelchair. I am back to walking again and have graduated from a walker. I never thought I would be able to walk again.”
Joe’s story reflects what can happen when consistent therapy, encouragement, and a supportive environment work together. His progress continues to inspire both fellow residents and team members alike.
Guided Movement for Every Ability Level
Fox Therapy plays an ongoing role in our regular programming, supporting residents’ mobility in ways that are safe, adaptive, and professionally guided. Sessions focus on stretching, balance, and movement techniques that can be adjusted for each individual, whether standing, seated, or using mobility support.
Danyel Starr, Regional Sales Director, highlighted the impact these moments have across the community:
“Seeing all our residents, no matter their mobility, move along with the music reminds me how activities can add something positive to the day.”
It is these shared experiences, rooted in care and respect for every ability, that help shape a more confident and connected daily life.
