Chicken Therapy

""When Chris told me she was going to write a book about her experience with vision therapy and how it helped her recover from her injury, I was thrilled. Not only was she planning to spread the news about the benefits of vision therapy, but she was also targeting the population of patients who often have undiagnosed vision deficits following a brain injury. After reading her book, I also realized the great impact it could have in providing inspiration to this population of patients, as well as the value of her story for healthcare professionals."" Christa Roser, 0.0., FOVDR Vision Therapy Associates"" Highly recommend this book. An easy read and keeps your interest. Both inspirational and informative. Excellent book for someone who is going through a challenging time. Or for someone who has experienced a traumatic brain injury. It helped me better understand the difficulties my sister has from her TBI. Doctors and medical professionals could learn a lot about what a TBI patient is experiencing by reading this book. Carol Swartzlander Findley As a Neurovision optometrist, I enjoyed this story/documentation of your personal recovery journey. It is so sad so many struggle for so long because they aren't getting the appropriate and timely referrals. Thank you for spreading the word! Kathryn Collins Owner/Doctor at Neurovision Rehab Center of PA and Optometrist at Kissel Eye Car This is a fascinating book. It blends the evidence-based approach of Vision Therapy with a more holistic approach in raising chickens. I got Walt Whitman vibes in how you found comfort in the interaction with nature. Wading through the frustration of dealing with insurance companies and lawyers can be a traumatic experience even without having to deal with the lingering effects of a TBI. Gary Kline This is an excellent book, once I started reading it I had a hard time putting it down. I would recommend this book to anyone to read. This is a very inspiring book. Chris did a fantastic job writing it. Cindy Swingler I think Chicken Therapy provides valuable insight in what others go through that suffer these kind of traumatic brain injuries or ongoing post-concussion syndrome. I'm a certified athletic trainer & have seen some of my athletes suffer these kind same type of injury. It's frustrating & many times people think they are faking their injury. Vision therapy has been something we recommended when our athletes were not getting better. Jen McCrabb The highlights if this book give people hope after a brain injury! The book was very informative in more ways than none!! I would recommend this book for one and all with even just everyday struggles. I would like to say buy the book. I believe we all will get something out if it!! Tammy Stark Beamsderfer
