Ex-high school athlete uses Whole Body Vibration to help people with disabilities

August 11th, 2009

Consider this: You are a 6′6″ 18 year old high school football and basketball star and everything is going your way. Then, in a gymnastics accident you break your neck and suffer a debilitating spinal cord injury.

Some might crumble with disappointment, but others rise up and take charge of their life. In 1993 this was Brian Sheridan’s reality.

Sheridan did not only continue competing in sports, he also went on to graduate from college, become a registered occupational therapist, and start a number of nonprofit and for-profit businesses that help people with disabilities. Of spinal cord injuries Sheridan says “There is no cure. Recovery needs to be comprehensive – mind, body and spirit.”
