I have been coming to Pace West since knee pain developed 4 or more years ago and Darcy fixed me up. They have helped me thru surgeries, rehab. Everyone is super professional and great to work with. Currently I see Trevor for dry needling, shockwave + laser therapy on problem spots. I am 60 and want to keep moving and be active into my late 80's. Their videos are extremely beneficial as well. Great office. I sent my active 21 yr old son there for rehab when he tore his achilles skiing and it was a complete tear but high up above the ski boot, unable to have surgery. Pace is the best! read more

Pace West has very knowledgeable PTs that have taken care of a few different needs. I tell them what hurts and they explain what's going on, give me exercises for long term healing, and do dry needling and other therapies to minimize and eliminate the pain. They are fabulous! read more

I started coming in mid January after I tore my ACL while skiing. I have been working with Henry and have made an amazing about of progress since then. He listened to my requests and used his best judgment based on what I wanted to get back to and made me a program that helped me get so much stronger before my scheduled surgery. My friends and family are all astonished by how far I have come in the 6 weeks I have been coming to PT at Pace West. I am so grateful to Henry and the whole crew here for getting me strong and moving before surgery. Despite living 45 minutes away from Pace West I will continue coming in to see Henry post surgery because of how pleased I am with my progress. read more

I have seen both Trevor and more recently Alyssa for various foot and knee issues. They are both excellent. The past six months Alyssa has been helping me with knee pain and recovery after a total knee replacement. She is knowledgeable, observant, insightful and dedicated. She is good at explaining what is going on, as she has clearly treated a lot of people with TKRs. I am confident my recovery is progressing considerably more quickly because of her. read more

Pelvic floor PT with Erin. She truly goes above and beyond. Not just to heal your body/muscles but to connect that with your mind- I learned that physical therapy is overcoming mental hurdles too. For example if you're stressed then your muscles tense up. I've never felt so comfortable and understood by a medical professional. I felt heard and it was easy to speak up if something didn't feel right. Definitely notice a difference in the way i carry myself now, not just my pelvic muscles, but that has also drastically improved. Honestly life changing! They take a variety of insurance too and the prices are reasonable. The parking garage always has spots. Great place! So professional and quiet calm atmosphere. read more

Ashley is a quiet, clear, peaceful and effective trainer of people and their bodies. ¦her #1 skill might be her incredible listening to clients to bring forth what they need. Her #1a skill might be her incredibly patient & perceptive observation of their bodies as they go through their paces, adjustments sometimes big and sometimes subtle - I amaze at how her slight alterations of my form translate into me finally 'getting it', finally understanding what to do in the gym when she’s not there. Her #1aa skill might be her coming to understand the mentality & emotional tendency of her clients, so that she might tailor her overall way of being with them, to find out what the keys are to having their head & heart in the game Thank you Ashley. What you have given me over these past months! Drew Coburn....... PS How smart the Pace West Management team to hire someone who can assure a patient's investment in PT is solidified in regular training of their body's afterward. read more

I have worked with the physical therapist at Pace West Physical Therapy for over fifteen years. I always seek out professional referrals where I know there will be collaboration and open doors of communication. These practitioners are highly skilled, compassionate, and approachable. My personal experiences are with Chris West, Darcy Vanderbie-Pace, Trevor Pace, and Paul Forhman, but I would beg to say that anyone they would hire would be fantastic.

I have been going to Pace West for years!!! They have had a profound impact on my quality of life. Chris and his team work magic. Not only do they have then healing hands, they also provide the education, techniques, and knowledge to help you to help correct the underlying issues and continue progress on your own. I have not found anyone else that comes close that even though I have moved away to to the other end of the country, I still make my way back for maintenance. Even during the pandemic, Pace West had made the necessary changes to make you feel safe. Thank you Chris and your team!!! read more

I have been going here recently after moving from Colorado Springs to Boulder. I was sad to leave my great pt in CS but these guys are wonderful! I've been going to Alyssa and she has helped me so much and really been my saving grace! read more

I was a patient of Chris' twenty years ago and he saved me from surgery. This time around I've been working with Hannah and am equally pleased with her therapy, referrals and coordination of care. Wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

I have been a patient here over the years and this is my (and my families ) go to Physical therapy place ! The best of the very best and Darcy and Trevor Pace are phenomenal at what they do ..kind and compassionate and beyond knowledgeable! Love all their staff and my ankle (which has over 16 screws ) is working perfectly thanks to Pace West ! Love these guys ! read more

I can not say enough about Pace West Physical Therapy. We have been going to them for over ten years. Over those years, they have treated our active family for aches, pains, breaks, back issues, old bones and joints! The team at Pace West is first class. They are very professional and in touch with each individuals needs. Most recently, their telehealth services are top notch! Thank you for adjusting with our new normal! Not only are their services fantastic, the team makes us feel safe and well taken care of, thank you Pace West PT! read more

A couple of months ago, I visited Pace West physical therapy. My knee had been bothering me for several years. My hips were out of alignment causing pressure on the knee. It was painful for me to walk. My son had been helped by Pace West and told me how they had worked wonders on his problem. I was reluctant but my wife called up and made an appointment for me. Now, two months later, I walk without pain, I'm standing straighter and feel years younger. All thanks to Pace West. read more

I recently had my first appointment with Jenny to address an issue I'd been having with my hip. I'd been to two other PTs (as well as had a couple of sports massage and acupuncture) and I was still having pain. My appt with Jenny was great. I felt like she was the first person that really took the time to listen, evaluate my problem, and give me some very clear direction on what to do next. She even sent an email that evening with a review of what we talked about and videos on the exercises she suggested. I really appreciate the time that she spent with me and I will definitely continue going to Jenny as I try to heal this pesky hip of mine. read more

I went to Pace West after having my meniscus cleaned, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Paul was my therapist. He clearly knew his stuff, and cared about my success. He worked meticulously on my form, to make sure I had the right habits for a long life of healthy activity. He also worked on my strength, to make sure I could safely return to any activity I wished. Would definitely recommend Paul and Pace West! read more

I have been seeing Erin at Pace West for a few weeks. I had lost most of my right leg strength several years ago due to overuse. She using blood flow restriction had need me a new man. She is great read more

After prolonged sitting at a meditation retreat in May 2015, my hip was sore. Within weeks of leaving the retreat I had limited mobility and eventually couldn't rotate my leg. The pain inside my hip was unbearable, I was limping and my back was constantly aching. I was recommended to see Trevor at Pace West and it was the best thing I could have done for myself! Trevor is a compassionate and expert physical therapist. He very carefully helped me to rejoin the world of 'normal' walkers and after a year of his guidance I can now walk, swim and complete gentle yoga. Through exercises, needling and stretching recommendations Trevor has helped me to heal my hip. I can hardly believe that a year ago I could barely walk and was in constant acute pain. As a competitive gymnast and dancer as a child, and a dancer and yoga enthusiast as an adult, I have been seeing physical therapists for the best part of my life. Trevor is by far the best I have seen and I have, and will continue, to recommend him to anyone I meet who is in need of expert and highest quality care. I hope to never sustain an injury like that again. If I do, Trevor will be the first person I will call. read more

Love this locally owned physical therapy office. I have been seeing the PTs there with great success for chronic pain. The office staff are all warm, clear and educational. I have been seeing Trevor, whom I believe is gifted in sensing what I need but I think probably everyone there is. Sometimes I joke with him that all I need to do is look at him and I'm out of pain. Not really. Maybe. They're great. If you're at your wits end, go see them. read more

Went here last year for help with back pain/muscle spasm I had been having from my kyphosis. They were not able to help whatsoever and just gave me some online stretches that never helped. They were way too soft on my back during the massage stuff and wouldn't even touch my back the first time I was there because we ran out of time while he was asking me questions. My old physical therapist would stick her elbow way in all over and it would help a lot. Nothing they did here ever helped and they couldn't even tell me the name of the muscle I was having trouble with. He just said "there's lots of muscles in the back. It could be any of them". I went to a chiropractor and he fixed me and was able to tell me what muscle it was and actually gave me exercises to strengthen my back and make it not happen again in like 10 min total. Rather than 4 long visits here that resulted in no meaningful help whatsoever. They just want your money here. I recommend trying somewhere else. The muscle was called the rhomboid btw. read more

I was originally referred to Trevor and Darcy Pace and their team at Pace West, four years ago. I went in with an injury, and left with knowledge on how to take better care of my physical health. I now keep a monthly check up with Pace West to make sure I'm continually improving on my physical health, flexibility, strength, and agility. I highly recommend Pace West for anyone with an injury looking to increase their physical quality of life and/ or athletic performance. You will receive the greatest care and coaching from honest professionals, with tremendous integrity. read more

I have many severe and long term injuries. Spinal issues, 2 blown knees and two broken elbows. I was hurt pretty badly in the Boulder Floods a few years ago. I heard of Pace through Ross Myer, RKC, CK-FMS, Z-Health level 2, Chek Holistic Lifestyle Coach level 3 Ross@MoveWellForLife.com, Move Well Personal Re-Training, Pain-Free Fitness, Vitality, and Holistic Strength, www.MoveWellForLife.com. Ross was instrumental in my recovery from injuries. This year I received a small grant to try and find a way to really recover some health and vitality. I am 54 and felt like I was 80. I got winded easily and everything hurt. Just walking up a flight of stairs was a big deal. Ross recommended Trevor and he and Trevor worked together to develop a plan to help me. That was 9 weeks ago. Trevor is incredibly supportive and knowledgeable and was invaluable in helping me to create and develop a real recovery and fitness plan as well as addressing and helping to heal mechanical issues I was was dealing with. I cannot recommend Trevor or his team highly enough. the staff is great and helpful and supportive and my experience has been thoroughly healing. Today I have lost weight, my average daily pain issues are down significantly and I am well on the road to recovery. If you are looking for a PT in Boulder or are willing to drive a bit from surrounding areas, this is the place to go! read more

I've been using Pace West for about 20 years as my body ages. Mostly I've seen Darcy, who is smart, well-informed, patient, understanding, and really pays attention to the results of her advice. I came to town with lower back problems and knee problems, and have also had neck, ankle, and shoulder issues, some quite severe. She hasn't been able to fix everything, but she's really helped me maintain myself in reasonable shape. I definitely recommend Pace West. read more

I can't believe how complex my shoulder surgery and recovery has been. The knowledge and experience runs deep here and is inspiring.

I have been dealing with chronic shoulder pain my entire life. I've sought treatment in different ways throughout the years but never found relief like I did in the Pace West PT office with Paul. Paul worked with my to combine different treatments, most prominently dry needling, to give me complete relief for days on end, which is something I had never experienced before. Needless to say, the work I did with him was healing and very emotional for me and Paul was with me every step of the way. He also made our sessions fun as we are both music lovers--I always had a curated playlist just for my sessions and learned about new artists from Paul while I was getting treated. Make a point to visit this office--the staff is absolutely top notch! read more

I have been seeing Mike at Pace West since September for post ACL surgery physical therapy. First off, Pace accepts medical insurance where most physical therapists in Boulder do not. Secondly, they are super helpful and cheerful at the front desk. Finally, Mike really knows the body mechanics and has given me useful exercises that I actually do outside of PT, as well as, provide knowledgable information about the progress my body is making each week. He makes the sessions fun and productive. I feel certain that I will be back to running, CrossFit and skiing before long. Thanks Mike! read more

I started PT about a month ago with Darcy and Katie, and I can't say enough how happy I've been with my experience! I had hip surgery 18 months ago, and I moved to Boulder mid-way through my rehab process. For my first ~10 months in Boulder, I'd been going to PT elsewhere and I just wasn't making progress in getting back to my pre-surgery level of activity. I sought a 2nd opinion with Pace West, and I'm so glad I did! Once month into working with them, I'm feeling stronger and able to do more activity than I was walking into my first appointment. Darcy & Katie have been fabulous, working with me to try new approaches and figure out a plan to get me back on track. I'm so grateful I decided to get an evaluation from Pace West! read more

Having been in a serious motorcycle accident and tearing every ligament in my knee (ACL/MCL/PCL/LCL/QUAD).. I began looking for the best physical therapist in Boulder and came up with Jenny Ferris at PaceWest. Competitive snowboarding and rock climbing lends itself to many injuries, so I know a true professional when I see one. Jenny is exactly that. She has made it possible for me to hike ~15miles/week just 6 weeks after my ACL/PCL surgery. If you are serious about getting back to your full potential, and looking for one of the best therapists in Boulder, go see Jenny. Highly recommend!! read more

Love Pace West! They helped me address several issues related to my plantar fasciitis. They also helped me deal with pain running along side my legs and recommended several stretches to help mitigate the discomfort. The team offered a variety of treatments and were very accessible. Their treatments helped strengthen my week ankles and have successfully prevented future injury. read more

I had 10 AMAZING sessions with Amanda and she was incredible. Amanda is a ankle wizard, had changed my pain level from a 10 down to a 0/1, through her working sessions and stretches/exercises to do at home. I had come in after a minor surgery after I'd been having persistent pain in one of my ankles in the morning time. So I started with not being able to put weight on my ankle right when I'd hop out of bed in the morning with level 10 pain, to easily walking on it in the morning. We'd spend about half of the time physically working the area on the table and the other half running through exercises I could not do at home. Amanda made sure to walk through all exercises with me to make sure I understood them. She made sure I understood the big picture and how to help the health of my ankle. Amanda is very thoughtful, sincere, and persistent. When my ankle would not stop cracking she was determined to massage the areas and figure out the source of the cracks. The best part is, after our 10 sessions she wrote up several exercises to take back with me and do for several months. I also received a summary that I could review with my doctor. As for the other staff I was always greeted by my first name and they were all so helpful. I had scheduled my appointments in 3-5 increments and always found perfect times that worked with my schedule. I cannot stress enough my positive experience with Pace West and Amanda! read more

The treatment I have received is exceptional!! Due to my athletics and previous injuries I have seen many other PT's in the past. The treatment I have received is above all!! They have found issues that were never identified in the past. I have made outstanding progress! Thank you Chris and Darcy! Jodi Sarntee read more

The thing I like most about Pace West is the personal attention they provide. I saw Trevor for neck problems and headaches. He spent the 45 minute sessions with me, understanding the problem, manipulating my neck and providing exercises for me to do at home. He was very professional and caring. I saw him every time. I had an experience at a different pt office where I always saw a different therapist, was in a big workout room with other patients and therapists, and my pt was juggling several patients at the same time. This never happened at Pace. I like Pace because of the personal attention they provide. read more

Couldn't be happier. My issue started in lower back and impacted my right leg. My goal was to make this annoying physical setback "the best thing to happen to me" - and with Darcy's guidance, it's working. I couldn't reach over to put on my own socks and shoes without severe pain, and had to pick up and move my right leg (it wouldn't do what my brain told it to do). Hiking? Grim. Enter Darcy. She was/is my "QB extraordinaire." Between Darcy's own manual talents, lifestyle coaching (whole30 diet to reduce background inflammation, and getting back in the pool), plus work done by other PW staff (especially Trevor), and Alexis, a DO therapist outside their group she referred me to, I ultimately had a "light-switch" experience: In early phase of my treatment (symptoms still severe, my outlook somewhat dim that AM) I mentioned a different/new symptom I had experienced...after an "A-ha!", some magic hands went to work and within MINUTES I got off the table with NO PAIN. Gone. Right leg functions fully again - no limitations. I was stunned, forever grateful, and am super motivated to keep going with their exercise recommendations, etc. They work as a seamless team to help you achieve your goals, and it helps that they're really lovely, smart, and technically top-shelf professionals. read more

I've seen both Chris and Trevor. Both are excellent PTs. Everyone there is kind and professional. Trevor has kept me running through years of spinal problems. And for that I am grateful. read more

I came to Pace West due to a severe ankle injury. The care that I received there was excellent. The staff are knowledgeable and respectful. Paul was great in helping me recover from my injury, as well as advised and supported me in addressing some other long-standing musculo-skeletal issues. Highly recommended!! read more

5 stars may not be enough. In November 2013, i was in a car accident which appeared minor. I started seeing Amber Thompson, chiropractor, as i thought i needed some adjusting. She was helping greatly, but we decided i needed to try needling with Paul. Paul was great! Patient yet held me to the pt exercises. Listened when modifications were needed. After a few months, I was able to walk BOTH directions around the block. Seems small but to a skier/backcountry/mtn biker, it was a major step in the right direction. :-) I'm skiing and everything now! Ok, still too scared to rollerblade... Donna read more
