She is very cognizant of the sensitive nature of pelvic floor issues and treatment. She has been extremely supportive through my journey, very easy to talk to, and she has given me many tips and help beyond my core treatment. There is a whole world around pelvic floor issues that everyone should know! I was going to the Hopkinton location, until Erika was moved to Ashland. All of the office staff have been helpful throughout my time working with them, and I have had no problems with billing or making appointments. I highly recommend, especially for anyone looking for pelvic floor PT.

Whats worse is I injured it on vacation and would have to walk up the stairs sideways while chasing my 8 year old. But what was it? The dreaded Achilles, my knee, hamstring? My knee was now moving side to side with pain in the front side and back So I called my doctor, she said to go to physical therapy before I could have a MRI and recommended PPT. So begrudgingly I went. I was pretty sure they couldn't fix what was broken beyond repair. But I was wrong. First step was assessing what was wrong which was a partially torn hamstring. Second step was correcting the problem with exercises to repair the hammy and strengthen the other parts around it. I am happy to report I am completely pain free and will start running yet again. One last thing: The therapists really care. Let me name them Summer, Heidy, and Ash. Many thanks for helping me walk and now run again. I am incredibly grateful.

I have been a patient at several other PT clinics for injuries, or Pre and post surgeries. South End's workouts get the job done. My walking improved within weeks and I grew stronger and steadier on my feet, under their care. Pain decreased dramatically. The Front desk team member, Kiara, is super friendly and handles appointments, insurance and doctor coordination with ease. She's a gem. I travel from Cambridge 2x a week to this clinic. Don't compromise, you'll pay the same and get less results -- go to South End!

BVPT was able to get me a next-day appointment with Dr.Jessica Lynch (my savior with the strong hands). My introductory appointment was conducted in a private room and I felt immediately at ease with Jessica. Throughout my treatment she was professional and understanding, she truely listened when I explained my pain and it always felt like she was in my corner. The space, located in one of New England's repurposed mill buildings, is well organized and *clean clean clean*. The lighting is bright without being oppressive (handy when you're staring up at one during an adjustment or exercise) and there is a wide variety of tools aimed to get you back on track/in motion. Our typical session included applied heat, manual manipulation/massage, and guided stretches and strength training followed by ice. When we started I could barely move, but within 6 weeks (going from 2 to 1 session a week) Jessica had me back out and on-track with my health and strength goals. Absolutely would recommend BVPT to anyone in need of physical therapy! Looking forward to returning for Thursday evening (7pm) yoga lead by Jessica and might even take a stab at a TRX class. Everyone here felt familiar and welcoming, so I'm actually looking forward to keeping in touch (certainly not how I've felt with previous PT offices).

"Let it rest. Now, you have the opportunity and perhaps the motivation to start running again." Unfortunately, my knees weren't hip to my plan...at all. So, after my limp of shame from the Hatchshell back to Central Square, I figured it was time to seek some real help. One MRI and multiple X-rays later, I found myself at Sports and Physical Therapy down on Longwood Ave. (This company has multiple offices, but coming from Central Square, I felt that this office was the closest for me.) From the first eval, I knew I was going to like this place. Why? Jerry really knew his stuff. My biggest fear was that I would find yet another one of those "cookie cutter" kinds of places where everyone gets the exact same PT treatment. ("Stretch, now ride the bike, and massage...off you go!") Jerry took the time before and after the eval to discuss options based on my real responses. And when I say he took the time, I'm talking no rush whatsoever. That was appreciated. I worked with Jerry, Natasha, and Meredith at this office, and I highly recommend all three of them. Very personable, experienced, and helpful. My therapy was well-paced, challenging but not frustrating, and, quite frankly, a lot of fun. They work with a wide variety of clients, and I saw first-hand how they approached each client and catered the therapy directly to his or her needs and capabilities. The office can get busy, but they are extremely good at what they do, and I never once felt rushed through my therapy or that I was deprived of their attention. So, how do I feel, now that my therapy is over? In a word, great. I'm back to pre-injury intensity levels, and I honestly feel that the muscles surrounding my joints are stronger than they were prior to my injuries, which is usually a good thing. Couple of additional notes.... * Parking in the Longwood area sucks. Unless you take public transportation, you'll have to park in a parking garage. I was easily dropping $10 for parking, twice a week. That gets annoying really quickly. * They also offer other services, such as massage therapy, for an hourly rate. I never took them up on this (I usually go to Boston Backworks), but their rates are pretty good. In fact, I think they were ~$65-$70 an hour, which is $5-$10 cheaper than Boston Backworks. * I am now officially the Indo Board master (google it), thanks to them. Yes, I am adding that to my resume, thank you very much. All in all, very highly recommended.

I picked SPTA based on its location near work and stayed because I kept noticing improved stability and really enjoyed going to each of my sessions. Facility is clean and the PTs and PT assistants really know their stuff. They seem to treat a good mix of post-op patients and sports injuries along with regular injuries. I can't recommend this group enough. They helped confirm my insurance was all set before I started and almost always could give me an appointment the day and time I wanted. They offer some Saturday appointments too! Jerry and Adele were my primary PTs and I also worked with the clinic's team of PT assistants who were all excellent. I couldn't believe how personalized and attentive my care was. Jerry helped me incorporate yoga poses to make some of my Bosu exercises more interesting and challenging and Adele offered gentle encouragement and guidance with intensifying exercises. I even got some tips regarding returning to running and a video evaluation of my running stride. Consider going here if you have athletic goals in particular. UPDATE: Still injury free over a year later!

The practitioners here are exceptionally trained and qualified, with most, if not all, having advanced degrees in Physical Therapy and extensive practical hands-on experience. Samantha ("Sammy") Rondeau, DPT, led my first series of PT sessions for right knee replacement. This was personally challenging as I'd never experienced a surgery or recovery like this one. Sammy outlined, explained, and led 3-times a week sessions to restore movement and full use of my right leg. This included home exercises (I continue to use as part of my home workouts.) Sammy is also leading my rotator cuff PT (which I started this week.) A comprehensive assessment coupled with MD recommendations precedes physical therapy here. Everyone here is very client-focused. Lots of off-street parking and a comfortable waiting room. The staff are all upbeat and eager to guide the rest of us to improved health. There are many PT clinics in the immediate area, but I am very fortunate to work with this one.

I made very good progress and now have a set of effective exercises to do at home. I can walk farther everyday and with little pain and less stiffness. During my seven weeks there I saw how the other therapists were working with their clients and could see that my chiropractor was right. You couldn't go wrong with any of them!
