"She helped me recover from a spine fracture and I was able to regain strength and mobility much quicker than I would have thought."
"Having a PT one-on-one for a full appointment is practically unheard of, so I greatly appreciate her undivided attention during our PT sessions, and her hands-on manipulations provided incredible relief from pain."
"There are a lot of physical therapists, but the quality of care you receive varies vastly. When you meet with Dr. C., all of her focus is on you and your recovery."
Don't Let Sports Injuries Sideline Your Performance
Without proper rehabilitation, sports injuries can lead to prolonged recovery time and increased risk of re-injury.
Sports injuries often worsen without specialized treatment designed for athletes
Generic physical therapy may not address the specific demands of your sport
Returning to play too soon can lead to chronic issues and decreased performance

Success Stories from Athletes
See how we've helped athletes get back in the game
"Everything about this practice is outstanding, starting with the knowledge and personal attention of Dr C. She took the time to listen to my concerns and designed treatment that was on point. I love the portal listing all exercises. The office space is very inviting, clean, and street parking easy to find. I have no hesitation to recommend Dr C to anyone looking for holistic PT services."
"The individual and specialized PT has done more for me than I could ever imagine. Dr. C is realistic with the exercises while pushing for the occasional stretch goal. She offers encouragement, optimism, and progress checks to help shift to a positive outlook despite the challenges. Having an individual therapist outside of a busy PT group is worth the investment whether you have a new injury or a nagging one that you just think won’t ever get better."
"Dr. Candace was fantastic and I highly recommend her services: from diagnosis of injury to healing and strengthening, I now feel stronger and more aware of how I can incorporate regular exercise in my daily life. Her online platform is also easy to use, and I am grateful to keep having access to it post treatment."
"I cannot thank Dr. C enough for accurately diagnosing my injury and designing a rehab program specifically designed to help me achieve my fitness goals. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is struggling with repeat injuries. She is friendly and compassionate, and is motivated to see her patients adapt and thrive."
"Dr. Candace is fantastic in PT, especially for yoga practitioners since she, too, has a yoga practice. I've had some on/off, lingering issues in both shoulders. Not only did she chase down the root of the pain, but got me ready for a month long yoga training. She super sweet with a good bedside manner. She's worth every penny."
