Rachel asked many questions to determine my needs. She also used various techniques to determine location of my pain and cause of pain. She chose exercises for me and adjusted amount of weight used, based on my needs and ability. I’m doing prescribed exercises at home and look forward to seeing Rachel again and gaining strength and range of motion.

Rachel is a wonderful, warm, patient, professional PT. My visit started with a thorough evaluation and physical assessment which included some massage & manipulative therapy. The exercises we worked through were completely targeted to my injury and its particular issues. Rachel is a very calm and focused manner so that the patient is the center of a completely satisfying, helpful session- and each one brings improvement to my strength and mobility. She is highly recommended.

I've been seeing Rachel for about a month & she has seriously helped me w/my knee tremendously. I was not able to do something simple as going up the stairs w/out feeling a stamp pain on my left knee, but after seeing her I don't have that pain any more. I'm hoping that if I continue to see her that I an go back to my normal lifestyle!
