Physical Therapy Testimonials

" I am going to be here until I die". Before coming to PT2, I wasn't able to walk or stand upright and had back pain for more than 13 years. I now can walk and stand up straight without back pain. I have muscle i never knew I had! I've learned to value of exercise.

"I went to Mitchell Yass for severe leg pain". I could no longer even think about playing the sport I love- racquetball. I had been to an Orthopedic MD, Neurologist and Chiropractor. None of them could help to relieve the pain. The Orthopedic Doctor thought the pain was due to the herniated discs that were in my MRI. The neurologist said that I had nerve damage in my leg and referred me to a Neurosurgeon. I went to see Mitchell Yass instead. He reviewed my MRI and examined me . He told me the pain had nothing to do with my discs or nerve damage. He was right! He resolved the pain and had me playing racquetball in four weeks. He is truly a " miracle man".

Personal Training Testimonials

" When I came to PT2, I couldn't even tie my shoe due to lower back pain". Now I am able to play golf and other activities due to the resolution of lower back pain achieved with physical therapy and strength gains I have made with personal training. I have achieved such high level of fitness that at my last stress test, my doctor had to terminate the test because they couldn't raise my heart rate enough to reach a maximal rate on the treadmill. I have truly learned the lesson, " Strength = Function"
Anthony F, Lake Grove, N.Y.

" I began at PT@ just over a year ago for physical therapy for severe knee pain". As I began to do the physical therapy, I noticed that I was losing weight. When the issue of knee pain was resolved and the sessions of therapy had ended, I decided to continue with personal training. Through aggressive strength training and lifestyle changes, I have, to date , lost a total of 151 pounds. For me, the other health benefits have also been amazing; as a diabetic I have been able to decrease my insulin 80% and discontinues an oral medication. I no longer need to take cholesterol medication and I no longer have back spasms and vertigo. I attribute the majority of my success to the strength training and am grateful to the entire staff @ PT2 for all their help, encouragement and support.
