The Athlete's Edge

Jul 2023

My name is Linda and I've been coming to Anthony for years and every time I have a problem he fixes it I first started out with double tendinitis in both elbows and boy. Let me tell you he really knows how to fix that also went in there for other things for maintenance. And another thing I like is that he doesn't believe in the medicine or surgery which is wonderful and if he doesn't think he can help you he tells you he does not wanna waste your money. He is wonderful. I call him the man with the magic hands I would highly recommend Anthony.

Six months ago, I had a major spinal surgery with one of the best surgeons in the Bay Area. Luckily my surgery was extremely successful. After the first 3 months, I was to start physical therapy, which I did. Unfortunately, contrary to my good experience with the surgery, the physical therapist who started my rehabilitation was extremely incompetent. Thus, instead of finding relief, the treatments left me in extreme pain. After I tolerated and suffered through intense pain for three sleepless nights, I remembered that a while back someone had spoken very highly of their experience with Anthony Gilbert. I pulled out the business card that I was given and called Anthony at 7 a.m., and left him a message while crying. In complete desperation, I asked Anthony Gilbert to please give me an appointment and help me with my pain. In no time, I received a call and an appointment to meet with him! I arrived at the address located in a residential neighborhood. I walked into an office decorated beautifully and peacefully. I was impressed after I met Anthony. His friendly face helped put my mind at ease and after a careful evaluation, he immediately got to work. I felt that I was in good hands, but had no idea if (ART- Active Release Techniques) could end my pain or not. Soon I came to believe in Anthony and in his expertise. Needless to say, that I have become one of his fans. It was like magic; in fact, my pain got less and less with each session until there was no more pain. It is very unfortunate that insurance does not pay for ART treatment. If you are someone who, like me, has some saving and are also in any physical pain, I highly, highly recommend getting an appointment with Anthony. I promise that it would be the best money you spend on yourself. Word cannot express the deep and most profound gratitude I, and my family feel towards Anthony, and what he has done for me. He has helped me become happy again, and I am finally able to go back to my normal daily activities. I am forever grateful to Anthony.

I had a rotator cuff repair surgery in 2011. The post-op PT did almost nothing and discharged me before I could reach normal range of motion for a healthy person my age. After working through it for 3 years on my own with very little progress I searched for ART and was referred to Anthony by a friend. Within 3 visits I could reach 95% my original range of motion and after a couple maintenance visits I was able to resume my active lifestyle. I still return every once in a while to get rid of those stubborn sticky spots one earns from working a desk job.
