Flawless healing experience

Christina took her time to help me develop a exercise plan that complemented my in office workouts, and was highly informative in describing how each exercise would help me heal after my surgery.

Fantastic PT experience

Christina was a terrific physical therapist. She was very patient, had great advice and a smart exercise program for me to follow. Over the course of my PT, I improved my range of motion and successfully completed the sessions. She's provided me with a great plan going forward, for continuing my exercises at home. I would definitely return if I ever needed PT again. (Although I hope not to need it!) All in all, a great experience. Thanks so much!

Professional, compassionate, and transformational to getting me back into my sport!

Before coming to Christina, I had a lot of shoulder pain, without much success diagnosing myself. I am a rock climber, so having strong shoulders is very important to me--Christina helped me understand the roots of my problem (posture, sleeping habits, technique) and helped me to strengthen other parts of my upper back that have also helped my climbing. 100% recommend.

Sincerely cares about her patients

I'm diagnosed with a rare disorder called the Parsonage Turner Syndrome. Christina goes out of her way to learn more about the disorder to find the best ways to treat my symptoms. Recovery is slow, due to the nature of the disorder, but I'm making progress slowly but surely with Christina.

Christina is great!

I came in with back pain which had been an issue for years. Christina was able to diagnose the problem and give me the proper exercises to ease the pain. After working with her my pain is significantly reduced and I have a great maintenance program to keep it at bay. I highly recommend working with Christina and RPT!

Very Helpful Experience

Christina was very responsive to my issue over the course of 10 sessions. She also gave me a number of exercises that I can incorporate into my daily workout routine to help with the ITB related issues with my right knee. I am hopeful I will be able to go back to running longer than 15 minutes without pain!
