Absolutely blown away a how fast Ritika was able to get my shoulder functioning after my Laterjet Procedure. Definitely the most efficient PT I’ve ever gone through. She made an extreme effort to make sure I had all of the information I needed to continue my progress at home.
Truly fantastic experience, and I can’t recommend Ritika and this Spear location enough! Very happy I found myself here for my shoulder recovery.

Ritika is the best physical therapist I have ever had - incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and highly effective in her treatment plan. I dealt with a chronic injury of 3 years and she got me back to running!

I will be forever grateful to have worked with Ritika over the last few weeks. I came in with excruciating back pain mid-pregnancy. She was able to explain the cause, and through massage, stretching, and strengthening exercises my pain started to improve. She was able to adjust the exercises so I could do them as my pregnancy progressed. By the end of pregnancy I felt the strongest and pain was gone! On top of this, she is always so kind and takes the time to get to know you. She’s a truly skilled and caring physical therapist and I won’t hesitate to return if I have any future issues.

I got injured at the end of April with a calf tear while playinng tennis - I am an active person and this injury affected me not only physically but mentally. Dr. Ritika Save really helped me recover as quickly as possible, especially with two long stinted Europe trips between our first session May 1 and last session July 29. I saw her twice a week when in town and then followed the exercises she instructed me to do while away. In 3 months I've healed and feel ready to go back to my usual activites. I couldn't have done it without her and would definitely recommend & go back to her again!

Ritika was my physical therapist for a few months and I had a wonderful experience. She was kind, professional, and attentive, always adjustIng my exercises as needed and at the end my back pain was mostly gone. The spear team was also always friendly and helpful, could not have asked for better.

I was Ritika’s patient for 25 sessions following a serious arm injury. I cannot recommend her more highly. She’s deeply knowledgeable and will explain the anatomy of your injury. She’s professional and follows up with exercises, asks about progress, and adjusts your regime progressively and carefully. And she creates a comfortable, easygoing environment—recovering from an injury can be frustrating, and she was immensely helpful in keeping good spirits. She’s all you want from an ideal PT and then more. I will miss my Monday morning PT!

I found ritika to be really fantastic. She very quickly figured out exactly what I needed and iterated to find the best set of exercises to get me back to normality. She cares deeply about her patients and thinks carefully about what they need. I can’t recommend her enough. In fact I sent my wife to her!!

Ritika was great to work with! In our first session, she thoroughly assessed my condition and tailored the treatment to my specific needs. She gave me a detailed plan of exercises and tips to support my issues each week. I saw her over a span of 5 months and I feel stronger and my pain has significantly decreased.
Overall, I am so happy with my experience with Ritika. She is highly skilled, attentive, and genuinely cared about my recovery. Each week was a pleasure to work with her and I would highly recommend!

I came to Spear PT on referral from my spine physician. Ritika has been super effective in addressing my orthopedic pains. PT was the solution in my case over chiropractic and other options. Keeping up with the home routine is key. I highly recommend Ritika fo her skills, professionalism, adaptability and overall friendliness. She really pushes to help clients improve.

Absolutely amazing experience. Rikita fixed my incredibly painful lower back in no time. I was at a point where I thought I’d have to massively change my lifestyle, and rikita proved that wrong. Could not recommend this place and Rikita more!!

Ritika cured me. I came in with extreme knee pain, and she helped me get ready for a marathon and taught me how to stretch and some exercises to prevent future issues. She’s THE BEST. I will miss coming in twice a week (but I’m glad I no longer need to)!!!!
