Sports Medicine near Needham

“It gives me great pleasure to post this review. Needham Physical Therapy (NPT) has been a great resource for me for more than a year. They are an excellent place for physical therapy providing the needed exercises in a very friendly environment. You become the center of attention as soon as you walk in. You are welcomed by name by Elaine, always with a smile, and someone comes over right away with a heat pad or icy wrap depending on what you need.
I started using NPT in March 2023 to treat pain from a torn rotator cuff in my right shoulder. Ryan Hicks started working with me as the physical therapist. He has done an amazing job of helping me to recover. My choice last year was to go for shoulder surgery or try to treat my pain through exercises to strengthen my shoulder. Ryan was of major help in my decision to avoid surgery. I am now able to do most daily tasks with my right shoulder without having gone for surgery. Although I still have some pain in my shoulder from time to time, I am convinced that, in my case, avoiding surgery was the right thing.
After recovery from shoulder pain, I went to NPT to treat pain in my knees. Again I started working with Ryan Hicks. He was of great help, before and after the left knee replacement surgery. While I still have some pain in my knees, I am now able to do outdoor walks of about two miles.
In addition to Ryan Hicks, I received physical therapy from Andrea Kelly and many therapy assistants including Ian and Emma. They have a wonderful team and a very friendly and uplifting environment. Michael Kane, the owner of NPT, has done an amazing job of building a great team. He finds the right people and given them an environment to grow and be responsive to what the patients need. There was always someone around to help whenever I needed something.
I highly recommend NPT. I will certainly go back to NPT whenever I need some physical therapy.“

“Matt is the best. He's always compassionate and tuned in. (I said this two years ago, and I'm saying it again!)“

“Was recommend to see George while I was struggling with an IT band injury while marathon training. Went from pain when even running 4 miles to being able to finish the Boston Marathon pain free a few weeks later. Cannot recommend George enough.“

“I got a knee injury, so I got an appointments for the physical therapy with Jake to boost my recovery. During two month of therapy, they made it possible to return me back to running, considering that I was limping before the therapy. Thank you BU therapy and Jake, the recovery results are outstanding!“

“Dr Z carefully and thoughtfully explained my right knee diagnosis. Together we came up with a good plan. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for an orthopedic issue.“

“I went in here hearing amazing things about Michael and wow was I blown away. He knows SO MUCH and validated all my pains and is motivated to get to the bottom of what was ailing me. Attentive, curious, and knowledgeable. Lived up to the expectation and then some. I went in with random issues from years of being an athlete and he found the root cause of my issues during his screening and made a plan to help me get better. Stop reading this and book your appointment. You will leave feeling better physically and mentally!!!“

“These guys are actually knowledgable. I'm grateful I finally found a competent physical therapist that I can trust. Sean went over my whole history, discussed everything with me, answered all my questions, and most importantly created a custom plan for my case. Sarah at the front desk is always helpful and friendly. I takes me 45 minutes to get here but it is totally worth it!“

“I’ve been going to MTP twice a month for massage therapy for over 10 years. Massages are exceptional and I would recommend MTP to anyone without hesitation.“

“Dr. Alexa Shea relieved my neck pain from a small injury. I was in so much pain, and she was the only thing that I found relief from. Medications and massage were not helping much at all. Her experience and knowledge are unmatched and she shows true care for her patients. I highly recommend her for any of your chiropractic needs.“

“Dr. Cao takes care of our family for the last 15 years and treated many conditions. We owe her a big time for our health.“

“10/10 would recommend!

Cambridge/Somerville Family Chiropractors got me in immediately! I was in severe pain when I first came in; my lower back was unbearable. I just finished my third session with Dr. Carri Goldstein — and my back feels so much better. There are no words to truly express my gratitude.

Dr. Goldstein listens to her patients needs. She is kind and gentle, but doesn’t shy away from adjusting what needs to be adjusted.

Do not go anywhere else. Their staff is wonderful!“

“I was happy to have a chance to visit ATI before getting an appointment and to sit in the first meeting to understand Julia the therapist. She helped my husband to build the strength to become confident with a new knee! The clinic is full of ener too!“

“I recently visited Dr. Ezrin for a bad neck. He did a great job with his adjustment. I have been to many different chiropractors and Dr. Ezrin was one of the best.“

“I have severe RA. Dr.Docken was my doctor for many years. Absolutely outstanding in every possible way. Thank you Dr. Dickens for all your care and patience throughpth the years!“

“Dr. Lauren is a magic maker! I ripped my hammy in Tae Kwon Do and then developed tennis-elbow a week later - I was just going to 'rub some dirt' on it and tough it out but a friend recommended visiting Dr. Lauren. I'm so glad I did as right after the first session, I felt 100% better and shortened my recovery time immensely. I didn't realize that babying a tennis elbow would make it take longer to heal and glad to learn the special exercises to work it out quickly. And she had my hammy ready for a Tae Kwon Do belt test in just 4 weeks! If you have any type of sports or or back issue, I highly recommend seeing Dr. Lauren!“

“Ben Benjamin is one of the greatest teachers and authors in the entire field of massage therapy - world-wide. He is a pioneer who is still in the frontier. He has developed and taught methods for relieving pain and tension, for optimizing performance, as well as done some great work in helping therapists with communication skills both through their hands and the information they share with clients. Honestly, studying with Ben is going to one of the SOURCES of so much that is most vital in our field. I believe every therapist should take one or more courses with Ben Benjamin. Not only is he teaching great hands-on courses, but he has a variety of superb classes on-line as well. Check him out!“

“good service here. Recommend it. Would clarify billing in advance as with every place.“

“Karson is one of the best chiropractors I have been to. He really cares to figure out what the issue is and works to know your body and activities to help diagnose where your issues are. He works muscles and looks at the full picture.He is also not pushy about trying to add services, sessions, etc like a lot of places I have been to. He is also super nice and the conversations during appointments are great.“

“I saw Lisa during a bad eczema flare on my face/body and she was so helpful with healing my skin from the inside. I am very grateful for her services and thankful for everything she was able to do!“

“I have had a fantastic experience at Khalsa Chiropractic. I've found scheduling to be pretty easy and Kyle Parrilla helps get rid of my knee pain when nothing else will. In addition he has helped brainstorm other ideas for how to continue to get to the bottom of what is causing my knee pain, which is above and beyond what I expected. Great, compassionate care.“

“I've had several positive experiences here at the Sports medicine center. Dr Cardoos has helped me so much with my herniated discs and spine. He was very patient and would respond to all of my questions in a timely manner. Also extremely nonjudgmental and I felt very seen by him. Speaking to the receptionists at the front desk was also great. No issues.“
