Physical Therapy near Kentfield

“Dr. Lauren Malachowski is currently my treating physical therapist. As someone who has been both a physical therapy patient off and on for the past 40 years, and a rehabilitation professional who worked with physical therapists collegially, and co-treated patients with them, I am eager to let folks know what an exceptionally talented physical therapist Dr. Malachowksi is. Not only is she accomplished with all of the standard and cutting-edge knowledge and skill of a well-trained and licensed physical therapist, but she brings to the work a rare sensibility for grasping the whole person, along with a passionate commitment to assist patients in realizing their rehabilitation goals. Perhaps most unusual, I have found that within a very short time she showed an uncanny intuitive ability to understand exactly what I needed as a patient, despite my presenting with a complicated history of musculo-skeletal challenges. Dr. Malachowski’s uncommon insight as a clinician felicitously combines with an accurate empathic quality and a genuine relational facility that makes the experience of working with her fresh and effective. Most remarkable of all, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Malachowski forged a powerfully functional, individually-honed and fruitful therapeutic relationship with me, entirely through remote means.Eliezer T.

“I have been seeing Marci at Pelvic Path for close to 10 months now. My initial reason for coming was bladder leakage... But things began surfacing in my body that I thought were unrelated. Each session I would mention the new thing and each time Marci would have an explanation on how the symptom I was experiencing was related to the pelvic floor and would offer up an exercise to address the issue. Not only has my leakage improved dramatically but so has my overall physical strength and mental well-being. She uses an integrative approach to healing and strengthening. I feel empowered and engaged in my healing process. She is giving me tools to take with me as I move forward.Marci is knowledgeable, enthusiastic, empathetic, adaptable and upbeat with just the right amount task master thrown in.The sessions are always different and meet me where I'm at on the day of the session. I trust her implicitly! She is a valued member of my health care team.“

“I've been going there for years every time I'm helped with my aches and pains. If it hurts get it taken care of there you will love it“

“Jeff gave very personalized therapy sessions that were at the perfect level based on my physical capabilities throughout the recovery process. I have been to other PT's, and they were typically moving between several patients during my sessions. Not Jeff, he gives you one on one sessions to make sure that you are performing all the exercises properly. I would definitely return to Jeff if I ever need PT again.“

“Referred by a friend, Book took care of my shoulder issue in one session. Acute? Chronic? Maintenance? I recommend Brook for all!“

“I had been working with Connor for 1-2 weeks when I got an MRI result telling me I had a torn labrum, with bursitis in my rotator cuff. I had very limited range of motion, not being able to hold my arm over my head or do a lateral raise without pain. I am a tennis player, and I hadn’t served in nearly two months. However over the following 5-6 weeks Connor worked very frequently with me to get my shoulder back on track. In that stretch Connor’s commitment and dedication to getting me healthy again showed in numerous ways. He would meet me as early as I needed, and would even get out on the tennis court early in the morning with me. I saw results very quickly. I first regained my strength, and then certain movements became less painful until ultimately it felt resolved. Connor is hyper analytical and has an answer for everything. He knows when to push and when to back off. He will give you extensive reports of your sessions and overall shows a sense of care, passion, commitment, and diligence that is extremely rare. I’m truly amazed at how quickly my shoulder has healed given the state of it 5-6 weeks ago. Thanks Connor!“

“This is a wonderful place to rehabilitate a serious injury. I have made remarkable progress under their supervision.“

“Rina and her team are amazing and hands down the best. Very attentive to every aspect of care and great at communicating. I use both the massage and chiropractic services with amazing results.“

“"My father stayed at Professional Post Acute in June 2024, and I couldn't be more pleased with the care he received. The staff was incredibly friendly and made him feel right at home. The quality of care was top-notch, ensuring that all his needs were met with professionalism and compassion. I must give special recognition to the administrator Nicole Foreman. She was absolutely amazing! Nicole was so attentive and always available whenever I had questions or concerns regarding my father. It was reassuring to know that she was just a call away, ready to help with anything we needed. I highly recommend Professional Post Acute for anyone in need of skilled nursing care. The dedication and kindness of the entire team truly made a difference in my father's recovery."“

“This office is way more than just a chiropractic facility. Dr. Drew is a talented practitioner but part of what makes Stabilized unique is the inclusion of multiple different healing modalities. Lazer, shockwave, decompression table, vibration platform, ice, heat and more. He sees the body as an ecosystem and every time I get adjusted I feel like energy moves more freely through my tissues. I've also had the privilege of trying out shockwave on my knee that was recently injured in a ski accident and in just two sessions my orthopedic surgeon was blown away at the reduction of fluid in my joint and the increase in my range of motion. You may have had chiropractic adjustments before but you've never had it like Dr. Drew does it. He makes me feel comfortable and talks me through everything he's doing. I'll never use anyone else!“

“If I could give DeAnna 100 stars, I would do that. Last year I had both shoulders replaced and I couldn't have done it withoutDeAnna! Her expertise in injuries/surgeries of all types is encyclopedic. Her studio, in her home, has everything needed for a full recovery from any injury. Best of all, with her amazing knowledge, she gently guides clients to optimal functioning in a very safe, supportive environment. DeAnna is the only PT I've ever worked with who created a plan (with how-to videos) that made me want to go home and do my daily home exercises religiously. Because I saw and felt the positive results from sticking to her program!! She's just the best PT I've ever worked with. She's also a wonderful, caring human and I know my great outcomes from my surgeries wouldn't have happened without her guidance and knowledge.“

“Kathleen is one of those caregivers that you don't encounter very often. She is highly skilled and educated in her craft of physical therapy and Pilates and is equally adept in putting you at ease, listening to your needs, and offering a nurturing environment while she is providing excellent care for you. I will never go to another physical therapist because I know that the care I receive from her is unmatched. Also of note is her highly capable and friendly staff. The entire atmosphere is welcoming and professional. If I could give 10 out of 10 stars I would but they only allow 5!“

“Tammara changed the whole picture of health for me after a chronic neck injury kept me from sleeping well, affecting my posture and pulling my core out of alignment. I spent over a year w a PT at another facility and arrived in the same pain when I had my first session. She worked closely with me, gave me a clear treatment plan, helped me understand how my neck was affecting other pain areas. You can feel the years of expertise in understanding the physiology of injuries in her hands. She facilitated the healing though ART manual therapy, Shockwave for myofascial breakdown and WinBack Tecar for pain and muscular release as part of my rehabilitation.I returned to see Dr. Moore after I had PRP therapy in my left hip since strengthening this area post injection is critical to the success. She gave me mobility pattern exercises and I was able to ski six weeks post!!Highly recommend her expertise to anybody looking to regain movement, has bodily restrictions or wants to improve their performance to the next level.“

“Finding Mary has been a true gift. I first came to her after I injured my back and had sciatica issues. 80% better in one session. A true change in quality of life. I also visited Mary for various athletic injuries.A mountain bike fall damaged some of my soft tissue, and I went from limping to walking comfortably after her treatment. I've also come to her with an ankle sprain, and Mary has been able to speed up the recovery process dramatically, giving me more mobility so I can get back to running trails.“

“Like many of you, we have visited numerous Chiropractors without any attention to detail or any result. You almost want to give up! With Chappy, he gives you full attention to your care. He really listens and helps you figure out what's going. I hope you have an excellent experience like I had, it's just unfortunate it has taken many years to find him. His staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and supportive.“

“I was referred to Dr.Zollner. He is truly one of the best in the west. Dr.Zollner and his colleague Cecilia are amazing. I would definitely highly recommend them if you are in any pain! Thank you for your amazing support and work.“

“If you have been struggling with tennis elbow, I strongly recommend Allen. Don’t try cortisone, give this a try first. Allen is 100% focused on tennis (and golf) elbow. His approach is primarily on using massage techniques to stimulate the rehabilitation of tendons and ligaments but also on stretching and strength exercises. I’ve been to about five sessions and feel very much that my tennis elbow issues are close to resolved.“

“I've been looking for a new Chiropractor since mine left Marin, and Yelp reviews helped me find this office. Dr. Eckhardt and his staff are very warm and inviting. The office is immaculate, and they practice Covid safety protocols, which helped me feel very comfortable. The adjustment I had was incredibly gentle and helped immediately. I'll go back once a week for a few weeks, and we will reevaluate after those treatments.“

“Dr. Schillinger provides a peaceful and healing environment. He works like a partner in health and wellness - listening and collaborating on the best plan of action for you.While I've only had the good fortune of leveraging his chiropractic services to date, I know he provides life coaching as well. That passion really shows up in our side-conversations as he gently adjusts my back and neck. I walk out each time feeling better on many levels.“

“Al is not only skilled, highly knowledgeable, and dedicated to the art and science of body work, but he's courageous in his approach. He doesn't waiver on approaching the body from a best practices mindset even when there may be 'crowds' who argue with it. Speaking as a fellow body worker, I can say that Al's insight into massage to help with low back, hip, shoulder, neck pain.... is one of the most effective approaches I've ever received. And, he's a community leader in massage - a true Master - highly recommend getting on his schedule while he's still taking new clients.“

“Sherwood is the best! If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be in such great shape.“

“As a former athlete, I have experienced Massage, Rolfing, Chiropractic, Yoga and Myofascial work. These are different types of body care that cover different parts of the body. Thor specializes in the Myofascial system that is quite different than a muscle massage or deep stretching of tendons via Rolfing. Thor is exceptional and uses his trained techniques to allow the body to release tension and gain movement. His hands are strong & gentle, he follows the tension and holds until it releases. I always leave his office relaxed, calm and loose. He really cares about one's health and positive results. His service is great for athletes looking to extend their playing days or helping one through a recent surgery by gaining range of motion.“

“A few years ago I was diagnosed with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, causing pain in my shoulder and arm. My neurologist highly recommended Janice for PT. I now know why: In less than 2 years, my pain level has dropped 90%, and we're not done yet! Janice is both perceptive and thorough; she identified and resolved a number of contributing issues. The result is that, not only is the pain greatly diminished, but my overall health is much better!BONUS POINTS: Janice is also a thoroughly nice person, and enjoyable to work with!“
