Reviews from our clients:
"Dr. Sarah Joy made me feel deeply seen and heard. She provided a holding space, while also giving clear guidance, support, and education on how we could best work together to solve my challenges. She is such a kind and lovely provider who I'm happy to have and will return to as other challenges come up! -Kevin T
"Sarah Joy is the best physical therapist I’ve had by a long shot. She’s knowledgeable, adaptable, and kind. I’d highly recommend her to anyone in need of PT!" -Alaina L
"I’ve been a loyal client of Paige Vivian for several years, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Paige is exceptionally knowledgeable, deeply attentive, and genuinely committed to her patients’ recovery and long-term well-being. One of the things that sets Paige apart is her incredible neck and scalene massage technique—it’s remarkably effective at releasing tension, improving mobility, and easing discomfort. Every session leaves me feeling more relaxed, aligned, and supported in my healing journey. Thanks to Paige’s care, my persistent headaches have become a rare occurrence, and my shoulder mobility has improved significantly. Her expertise and personalized approach have made a real difference in my life. I’m so grateful to have found her!" -Gauhar S.
"Dr. Vivian is a fantastic physical therapist whose treatment greatly lessened my lower back pain. Her care and attention helped to ease the immediate impacts of my joint troubles and her expertise and guidance allowed me to work towards correcting the underlying issues at the root of my pain. My quality of life has greatly improved thanks to my time in Dr. Vivian’s care." -Brooke O
"Working with Paige Vivian has been nothing short of transformative. As a former athlete recovering from shoulder surgery and managing chronic lower back pain, I’ve worked with many physical therapists—but none have matched Paige’s combination of expertise, empathy, and precision. She has an incredible ability to pinpoint the root cause of pain, not just treat the symptoms, and she builds programs that actually help you perform at a high level again. Her encouragement, attention to detail, and genuine investment in her patients’ progress make every session productive and motivating. Paige doesn’t just help you heal—she helps you get back to doing what you love with confidence." Dan J
"Paige is a gifted physical therapist who combines deep skill with a truly caring presence. Each session left me feeling lighter, more open, and more at ease in my body, which was critical to regaining my voice after losing it for months post-covid. Paige has a special way of helping the body unwind so you can access deeper healing on every level. I used to walk into sessions feeling wound up and leave feeling like I could finally breathe again, renewed in body and spirit. She’s intuitive, caring, and creates a space that feels both safe and transformative. She’s so easy to talk to, incredibly kind, and her touch is both gentle and powerful. Working with her was one of the highlights of my healing journey and medical leave. I can't thank Paige enough!" -Harumi
