“I met Katie shortly before I had knee surgery to repair tears on my meniscus. It had been about 6 months of regular pain, forcing me to refrain from running, working out, or even so much as doing a full body squat without pain and/or an unsettling click. Katie worked with me to identify the problems I was having and introduced me to a series of progressively more dynamic exercises to build up my mobility and strength to a level beyond where I was before my injury.Besides her mastery of physical therapy (and the fact that Katie is just an awesome person), these three things stood out to me the most:1: Katie uses a collaborative, educational approach to her work with her clients, and she is a fantastic instructor and coach. Moving my body in new ways was sometimes difficult, but her ability to articulate the exercises using auditory and visual cues was super helpful. Seeing something and hearing it in terms I understood made the process more enjoyable, and especially let me see why certain movements hurt, and how to improve upon them. Real-time cues while doing exercises also helped to hone in on the pieces I might be missing, and especially the pieces I was doing well. Both helped tremendously.2: Katie is extremely patient. Again, moving my body in new ways was sometimes difficult, which often left me spinning my wheels as I tried to get the movements right. Not once did she even remotely seem frustrated or impatient as I struggled. Instead, she showed enthusiasm for even the smallest improvements, and celebrated all of my little wins. It made learning and getting stronger a pleasant experience that motivated me each step of the way. Katie’s office is a safe place that fosters improvement in surprising ways.3: Katie is an empathic practitioner who understands your pain, and truly wants you to get better and be your best self. Knowing that she was on my side, seeing her celebrate my little wins, all of it. Katie made my pain feel understood from the first day, and inspired me to have confidence in both my progress and my potential once I was back in action.I highly recommend Katie for anyone who is ready to feel good in their body. She’s a treasure.“

“i went to visit Paul at Accupuncture Center of Portland due to both emotional pain from workplace trauma and physical pain that manifested in my body. I was having bad headaches and physical pain that caused me to lose sleep. Paul listened and developed a treatment plan to address both the emotional pain and stress and the physical pain. The work he is doing through accupuncture helped to release the physical pain, greatly reducing tension and giving me relief. I also notice reduction of stress and less tension in my whole body, especially in the days after the session, allowing for emotional healing to take place. Sometimes we just can't heal it all alone. I look forward to continuing my healing journey with Paul because I am experiencing noticeable positive results. Based on my experiences with other acupuncturists, I do think Paul is the most knowledgeable, confident, kind, and compassionate around. I look forward to returning to receive his gift as I work toward a full recovery.“

“Hello there my name is Snizhana, I got into a car accident a little while back and was referred to this clinic. Overall I have been having a wonderful experience. I had back problems prior to the accident that I was not aware of either and Dr Scott B Shephard was able to find all the issues. My spine is curved and Dr Scott B Shephard is working on my curvature. He was able to adjust my back and I feel a massive difference every time, I feel like my body is straightening out painlessly. People notice a difference in my posture without me even trying. The massages have been great too, not too rough and painful, but rather soothing. My back is starting to feel way better than ever before. Highly recommend this Chiropractor.“

“I had such an amazing visit. The team is really amazing. They know bodymechanics and how to heal the body. I came in with excruciating back pain after a gym injury and after two visits I am almost back to normal. They gave me best practices that I can do at home to recover faster and stay strong. I can't recommend Aaxis health enough!“

“Fantastic providers of chiropractic services!! I've been a patient for years and they're friendly, knowledgeable and caring.“

“I give it 5 stars? I liked the manner of the doctor, very friendly and above all, very Professional. His very friendly receptionist also helped me a lot to be able to explain my situation to the doctor. I really recommend Beebe chiropractic, excellent service.“

“Hands down best chiropractor I've ever been to in three different states. Professional, friendly, knowledgeable and the receptionist is always super friendly. My husband and I were lucky to find this clinic. We've been going here since 2013 I believe. That's 10 years! I've tried other chiropractor's due to moving locations, but we keep coming back here, because they're the best!“

“Chad was great. Helped me get my foot working again so I could get back to an active lifestyle. He focuses on one patient at a time unlike some PT providers. Highly recommend.“

“As a yoga and fitness instructor , the services Tangelo provides are so vital to keep my body aligned and feeling good. I refer everyone that asks where I get chiropractic work, cupping or injury rehab. They healed my plantar fasciitis and love seeing Teala’s sweet face every time I go! Everyone is so professional and so kind.“

“I recommend Evolve Physical Therapy-Portland 18215 NW West Union Rd place, because all therapist are professionals and receptionist staff is very friendly

“Very comfortable and time efficient experience. She identified the problem very quickly and waisted no time thoroughly addressing it. I left with the relief I'd hoped to find there and I look forward to going again soon.“
