HEAR FROM OUR CLIENTS
I worked with Josh for 10 months post-ACL reconstruction: fantastic service and quality advice. As an amateur athlete who needs the rush of endurance obstacle racing, Josh worked with me throughout the long recovery process to make sure I was safely meeting my goal of being able to return to 100% confidence in my knee, and being able to race. I'm happy to report I'm actually stronger than I was before blowing my knee out, and I attribute that to Josh.
My daughter (Libby Moir, L5), injured her hip at the gym last Fall. Despite seeing 3 different Hip doctors and doing several months of PT (up to three times a week), nothing worked - so we were planning for Summer surgery for a torn labrum. Then our Ortho told us to try you all - that it didn’t make sense why an 11-year olds hip couldn’t repair itself. Well, Libby’s therapist, Liz, was amazing and against all odds - the unending pain she had endured since last October was completely gone this Summer. NO SURGERY! Then, Liz worked patiently with Libby to help her regain strength in her hip and relieve some back pressure caused by favoring the other leg. Libby is almost 100% and FINALLY back at the gym. We have shared this story over and over - had we known the impact of choosing an in-network provider vs. finding the perfect provider - we would have found Body Dynamics last Fall.
I first came to The Sports Medicine Team at Body Dynamics because I was having joint pain that was hindering my training and performance. In addition to alleviating the pain, they helped me understand the root of the issue and showed me how to strengthen weaker muscles I needed to be using in addition. They gave me home exercises and emphasized proper warm-ups and stretching techniques. I subsequently started training at Body Dynamics because the team understood my goals and further taught me how to train effectively on my own. They were very knowledgeable and great to work with and enabled me to both prevent and recover from injuries that could have sidelined me. Overall, the Sports Medicine team helped me better understand my body, my training, and my limits.
