Ale is the best fitness coach ever! I worked with Ale last year in summer for correcting my…read moreposture, learning the right form of certain exercises and generally take my fitness to tbe next level. She was very methodical in studying my body, my posture, the way I walk and exercise. She created a special workout plan for me that not included workouts, but also emphasized on stretching, importance of sleep, foods that can cause inflammation. Her focus on toning the body, while working on pain management is phenomenal. At the end of my session, I learned how to walk again! with confidence, correct posture and utilize the right technique and muscles. I learned how to prioritize my sleep and nutrition. I am a gym-lover and with Ale's special workouts, my workout routine was taken to the next level. Thank you Ale!

I had terrible back pain and felt like I was no longer in control of my body. Ale not only helped to get rid of my back pain (and it still hasn't come back), but she also taught me a TON about my body and mind. She is so knowledgeable with her expertise as a posture specialist and her table work helped me relive a lot of pain. Ale is also a pleasure to spend 50minutes a week with. She is empathetic, focused and encouraging. If you are looking to boost your confidence and wellness journey, Ale is a wonderful coach.

I was in need of a speech therapist with some urgency. Not only was Jackie responsive, she did…read morethorough assessments within a three-week turnaround including observation at my child's school. She was also great at educating us parents on strategies we could implement right away and gave us a framework for understanding the recommendations of other speech therapists. Months later, her recommendations still match our hospital's high standards and her techniques have more depth than even the premier hospital-provided speech sessions we've learned from. Her bedside manner was great with both us as adults and our child, and I'm impressed at her ability to adapt to build trust with our child.

10+ years ago I saw Erica to treat a back injury. My case was complicated by a spinal cord injury…read moreI'd had in college. As others have said, Erica listens. She was a huge help. She also gave me one movement (hold your shoulders BACK!) that works wonders. In the years since, I've seen other PTs. But none of them got me like Erica did.

I have sciatica and have been miserable since January 2010. I finally went to the doctor because…read moreit had started to affect my knees also and I was in a lot of pain. This has been my best experience ever with a PT. She asks the right questions to get to the bottom of the problem and works one on one to solve it. Sounds goofy but Erica realized I was wearing the wrong type of walking shoe and needed an insert for my arches. Since I started using these my knee pain has been reduced dramatically. And with the therapy she is doing, my back and leg pain from the sciatica has been greatly reduced. I was worried after the bad news I got from the doctor on my MRI's but Erica assured me anyone can get better. And it has been really true for me.

And now after a few months everyone has noticed such an improvement with her. She's pretty normal in her communication but want to continue and work through expanding. It's amazing how much improvement with just weekly sessions. Also a side note, Jasna (I think she's the director at Speech Goals) is pretty awesome. She took the time to meet my daughter to see for herself what could be some of the delays before letting me sign up and pay additional private sessions out of pocket.

We were recommended PT for our 8 week old for torticollis. Had heard great things about Starfish,…read morebut was utterly disappointed in our 10+ appointments with Stacy (the owner). Stacy seemed irritated and distracted for almost all of the visits. I left most of the visits filled with fear that my newborn was not meeting its milestones because of what Stacy said or meant indirectly when my LO was not able to perform a skill. She was impatient enough to always leave the appointment after 20 mins, when my LO was tired. Even on repeatedly asking her to measure the asymmetry, Stacy would procrastinate it and say "next time". It looked like all Stacy was looking for was more future visits so she could get more money from us and the insurance. The last visit with us, she left us feeling flabbergasted after mentioning helmet and that my 5 mo failing to meet its milestones. I switched over to Mills PT in San Mateo and they cleared us after the second visit itself.

We paid a pretty penny for that initial assessment and not able to get a copy of that report which is odd. Seems like they're backed up and you pretty much have to keep nagging them to get things moving. Not sure what their internal system looks like. I just received an email from the coordinator on my availability a couple months back and that was it. I thought I was the only one going through this but spoke with another mom and same deal with her. If you are also in much need of speech therapy, do not wait for these folks! Unless you're guaranteed scheduled times after the assessment.

We tried a couple of Deborah Dutton's group classes a number of years ago, and I decided to go to her for one on one sessions this year because I was having a lot of shoulder pain. It has a been a real pleasure. First, my pain has greatly abated, if not disappeared, and I have new tools for dealing with the problem if it flairs up again. Deborah is very knowledgeable, as well as calm and soothing in her manner which is a boon to healing. Feldenkrais seems almost magical--it is subtle, yet works to ease pain, and relax, loosen and lengthen the body. It is a true mind/body method which is fascinating in itself.
