I loved my experience with The Movement Clinic! It was so hard to find a place that 1) was taking new clients and 2) had appointments available within the month, but these guys answered the phone first try and got me in THAT WEEK! I loved working with Chris— he catered every exercise to my needs, pivoting when the issue changed or increasing difficulty as soon as my ability allowed. He was personable and friendly while staying professional and reliable. THANKS CHRIS!!!

I had been dealing with shin pain for about a year that would not go away. I finally decided to go to physical therapy at The Movement Clinic and it changed my life! I specifically picked The Movement Clinic because it’s a sports medicine facility that allowed me to still run and workout while doing 12 weeks of PT. I was gearing up for a half marathon and I am happy to say that I ran the whole thing with no shin pain and was able to shave an hour off of my previous half marathon time! Thank you so much to Dr. John! I would highly recommend The Movement Clinic for any sports related injuries.
