New Recovery Technology: Rise & Walk
CORE introduces the Rise & Walk, a first-in-Florida neurorehabilitation device designed for high-intensity, activity-based training. This innovative system supports seated, standing, and walking movements while synchronizing upper and lower body function, helping both adult and pediatric clients improve mobility and recovery outcomes.
2025 CORE Spirit Award Winner
The CORE Team’s votes are in and the winner of the 2025 CORE Spirit Award is Emma S.!
Emma embodies the CORE Spirit in every sense. Her dedication, resilience, and unwavering positivity make her a constant source of inspiration to our entire team and fellow clients. Her commitment is shared by her family, who made the extraordinary decision to relocate to support her recovery journey.
Their belief in her, and in the work done at CORE, speaks volumes about Emma’s perseverance and the progress she continues to make.
Beyond her own recovery, Emma has chosen to give back in a powerful way. She established the Emma Foundation to help promote stem cell therapy as a recovery option, demonstrating her commitment to education, advocacy, and expanding possibilities for others on similar journeys. Her willingness to turn her experience into impact reflects a generosity of spirit that extends far beyond herself.
Congratulations Emma!
Welcome Ashleigh!

CORE C.H.A.M.P.s
Each month the CORE team nominates fellow team members they feel have gone above and beyond to be the CORE C.H.A.M.P. This month Lucy was selected as C.H.A.M.P.! Lucy continually shows up for her clients in anyway she can and pushes them to be their absolute best at all times. She has recently taken on assisting with CORE’s social media and attended a Networking Knights Event on behalf of CORE.
As this month’s C.H.A.M.P., Lucy has selected Emilio G. as our Client C.H.A.M.P.! Emilio is disciplined and pushes himself to be better everyday. He is always willing to try new things, demonstrates consistency and trust in his training program, and embodies what it means to commit to oneself through all the highs and lows.
Keep up the great work!
