Jennifer helped me go from hobbling and barely able to walk from a patellar subluxation in late May, to hiking 72 miles with a 40+lb pack!
Kate T.

I've been a loyal customer of Innovative Physical Therapy for over a year now (joy of joys...). I'm sure they're pretty sick of me by now ;P I started seeing Lindy for my TMJ problems last January. She is a wizard. So skilled and knowledgeable about anatomy and the connection between the different parts of the body. With Lindy's manipulation, her advice on the what-not-to-dos and workplace ergonomics, the guidance for jaw/neck/back/pec exercises, and modalities, I significantly reduced my jaw issues. I can eat big sandwiches without my jaw dislocating! I don't get headaches. My shoulders aren't ridiculously lopsided like they used to be. Inevitably every few months I don't keep up with my exercises and stretching like I'm supposed to (and because I'm always stressed and slouching), and Lindy fixes my jaw alignment back again and checks if my mouthguard is working like it's supposed to. I had a patellar subluxation in May when rock climbing thanks to a muscle imbalance from a similar injury in high school. I saw Jen this summer and she wow'd me by her knowledge of taping and patellar tracking. The physical therapists I saw when traveling for work didn't even know how to tape my knee... just said to strengthen my quad. With Jen's guidance on McConnell taping and how to ease back into activity, hands-on strengthening, modalities, and the intense exercises at Innovative and the takehome exercises, I went from being hardly able to walk to hiking again. I hiked the High Sierra Trail in early September- 72 miles up and down some steep terrain from Sequoia National Park over to Mount Whitney. I had a 40+ pound pack. Crossing logs over a sketchy river...? No problem after all those balance exercises at Innovative. Rock scrambling up the ridge to Mount Whitney? No problem after all those step exercises and power tower and squats. Innovative is different from other PT offices I've been to. The therapists know personally what's up (Lindy has had her own TMJ issues, and Jen once had a patellar subluxation from swimming breaststroke). They are TOTAL NERDS about anatomy, in the best way. (Lindy went to a conference in Chile(!!!) to learn from PTs who work directly with orthodontists there for TMJ). You get really solid hands-on treatment every appointment- whether it's getting your face painfully prodded for TMJ or applying hands-on resistance and massage to the legs for knee problems. And they don't just send you home! You get the fuuuuull workout with help from aides. You could go home early and just do your at-home exercises, but why wouldn't you make the most of all the machines and therabands and balance contraptions? The full set of knee exercises often went up to 2 hours for me with all the reps- I really get my money's worth out of my copay! And they let me use the equipment for the other troublesome body part while I'm there too. And you get modalities (for TMJ, a wonderful spa-like heat and stim :) ice and stim for my knee) at the end of every appointment if they think it's appropriate. Since they expanded their office, Innovative now has really fun small group exercise classes run by Katie and Rachel (which is amazing, because Rachel is the most bubbly and joyous person I've ever met and always made me feel a little brighter when struggling through the toughest parts of my treatment). It is really amazing to have structure to keep active, keep up with exercises, and do a group exercise class with the confidence you're not going to reinjure yourself because it's run by trained professionals and you can always ask your physical therapist in the next room if a certain position or exercise is okay. I can't recommend Innovative Physical Therapy enough. Extremely skilled, knowledgeable, and friendly staff who will get you active and healthy again :)

Fitness class swag! See my review for why I love IPT!

Time for a little review update. With a change in schedule, over the past few months I had the…read moreopportunity to try a different Massage Therapist at the Knotstop -Itzel! She is a true healer, and is very gifted in treating lingering injuries. I've been grappling with arthritis in my hands, and have an old shoulder injury that keeps dragging me down. Itzel does great pressure point work and also active stretches that have been very beneficial to my healing. She is professional, courteous, and superhumanly strong! I'm very grateful to have exceptional care at the Knotstop with Itzel and Ryan! Pro tip, treat yourself to the membership. I get the 90 minute massage deal for $135 for deep tissue, you can't beat it! Also, for a more chill experience, check out when you check in! That way you don't have to go to the front desk twice. I square up at the front desk when I check in, that way, I don't have to go back after my massage and deal with any details. I always tip my Massage Therapist in cash after the appointment.

I've been here twice now, as have a couple of my friends and we all have had a "meh" experience. My…read moremain issue is with the front desk. The first time I came here over a year ago, the front desk guy wasn't friendly and it didn't start my massage in a relaxing headspace. Today, the front desk had two people there and after I was checked in, neither of them thought to tell me there's a lounge that I can sit in while I wait. I'm very obviously nine months pregnant and it's hard to walk down the block at this point. After you check in, you're in this tight spaced gift shop area with no seating and I wasn't sure what to do until I saw a guy in a walker make his way through a room that said lounge across the top. After my massage was done today, I was back in that little gift shop area waiting to check out and pay for my massage. The lady checking out before me took a while so I was just standing there, exhausted with nowhere to sit. I very clearly remember giving the gift card number I was given when I reserved the appointment online, so it was also annoying that when I finally got up to pay, they dint have any of this information. These seems like small things, but they all add up to me having to put in more effort when I'm paying to set time aside to relax.

We both enjoyed our time! Parking: They have their own parking lot, though it's a bit smaller. We booked on a Saturday appointment at 12pm and there were only a few spots left. They only have one entrance, so they don't connect from the main parking lot behind-- just a heads up. Price: $100 for 90 minutes or $95 if cash-- which is a great price. We signed up for the $10 discount for first timers and put the code in when we booked online. But upon check in, they told us that the code only works for Monday-Thursday, which was disappointing since that wasn't listed anywhere on their website nor was it mentioned when we booked. Experience: We were in a couples room and there seemed to be a handful of rooms available. Shout out to Polly and Sara for being our therapists! They did a great job and they really dug in my problem areas. I enjoy medium to hard pressure and Polly delivered. What stood out to me the most was that after being on our back, they put Peppermint essential oil on our neck and shoulder, which felt amazing! At any other massages, my sinuses are usually so stuffy when I flip on my back but the essential oil cleared everything up. I'd like to point out however that the walls are very thin. So when people walked down the hall, you can hear them talking. Afterwards, they served tea and water. Overall: We enjoyed our first time getting Thai massage and we'd consider coming back again!
