Client Testimonials

  • "I went Alex to discuss dry needling and was blown away by the experience. As an athlete dealing with multiple issues, including an old injury that still lingers, I appreciated how thorough the initial consult was. Alex took the time to assess every aspect of my movement and mobility, while also learning about my lifestyle and fitness goals. His approach goes far beyond what you’d expect from a typical PT. Highly recommend!."

    Jennifer Costa

  • "I had a problem with my left knee and hamstring and it has gotten a lot better and stronger since going to Alex. With targeted workouts that will make the muscles stronger and the dry needling, definitely recommend."

    K. Winters

  • "My first time to see Alex for continuous r knee pain and he was so knowledge about certain exercises to do to help decrease pain and strengthen the muscles around my knee. I loved his approach of continuing to work out but modifying if need be. He really listened to my goals and my background and took time to make a plan to really hit all aspects of my recovery. HIGHLY recommend!!! and the Dry needling was amazing, the next day I already had significantly less pain!"

    A. McCarthy - Client

  • "I came to see Alex after 14 months of knee pain, a year of traditional physical therapy and multiple doctor's appointments. I was told me knee was structurally fine and that the paint "was very annoying, very common and very hard to treat". Alex helped me work through the knee pain by teaching me proper form and exercises to slowly build strength. Additionally, Alex has taught me about the importance of full body strength and conditioning to prevent future injury. I had accepted that I would just live with some dull pain forever, and am happy to say that with Alex's help that I know that is no longer true."
