“I have had several surgeries and have not found a therapist to assist with my chronic pain. Adam provides the most comprehensive evaluation I’ve seen and is putting together a program to address all of my imbalances.“

i have had more improvement during the relatively brief time that i have been working with adam and julia than i had during the entire prior year of physical therapy

I had pain in my shoulder for a couple of months. Someone has previously told me about the movement guild . When I went in for PT the staff was great. They helped me understand what was going on with my shoulder and how to fix it. I mostly worked with Secil and she was great. I had a very positive experience.
