Transformative is the best word I can think to describe the therapy that Angel provides. It has truly introduced me to a much healthier way to live and enjoy my favorite sports. Weekly appointments continue to provide more flexibility and range of motion. Thanks Angel!! read more

I initially went to Chelsea almost a year ago. I first went for shoulder pain and it was fixed after the first session and ever sense then I've been going regularly. Whatever I'm training for whether it be powerlifting or crossfit, Chelsea is an essential part in my regime to keep my body moving! read more

The team of massage therapists are in the business of helping you move better through massage and movement therapy. Great if you've got an injury or if you're and athlete looking for recovery and/or maintenance. Don't bother if you're looking for a relaxing massage with elevator music where you're not sure if someone is touching you because they're serious about optimizing how your body functions. Also don't expect a miracle in one, two, or three sessions. Any fix takes consistency so be ready to make more than one visit. read more

Came in for a personal treatment and was massaged by Chelsea, i had couple of knots and Chelsea did an amazing job at massaging them away! My back feels much better and relaxed. Thank you Chelsea! read more

Rich and Trish are awesome. I just wrapped up a session with Rich. He books up fast so make sure to get on his schedule well in advance. Rich will get in all those tight areas. Sometimes the work he performs on my body makes me want to scream because of the discomfort that I feel when he is breaking down scar tissue. Although, at times I have to just go to my "happy place" and breathe through it. I know it's all for the greater good. He gives me the ability to get back on the road and pound that pavement. He is very professional and great conversationalist. #runnermaintenance #runnersolutions read more

Rich is the best!!!! I was limping when I went to see him the see him the first time. My knee pain was really bad. After an MRI therapist through my insurance told I need to stop running. I am back running and getting ready to run Ragnar!!!! thank you Rich so thankful for you in my life read more

I had the BEST experience coming to VFE. I was in the middle of marathon training and got injured and was out for three weeks. The pain was so unbearable while running I had to seek for help. My friend recommended me to go to Julio from VFE and within one session I felt so much better. He worked on my IT band and psoas, explained the right way to recover after a run. Luckily within a couple of sessions I was running like I was never injured. My marathon experience was amazing and I couldn't of done it without the help of VFE. read more

I just started seeing Julio and I can't say enough good things about my experience with him. I'm about to run my first marathon and he has helped me greatly with both my physical/muscle issues and mental/anxiety issues related to my first big race. It's not just that he is working on your body, he is so knowledgeable about running and races and so generous with sharing his expertise, that you get the whole picture. You can tell he has great enthusiasm and positive energy for running and good health and that transfers over to you. I will be going into this race with a way more relaxed body and mental confidence. Thanks Julio! read more

I have been seeing Tricia at VFE for a couple of years now. I was originally referred to her by an accomplished 100 mile finisher. Tricia understands the regular aches, pains and injuries of runners because she is a runner herself. My regular sessions with her have enabled me to keep moving, injury free. I have completed one 50 miler and many 50k trail races. read more

Every time I've gotten recovery work done by Rich, I feel great! As a crossfitter, you're always pushing your body hard and beyond. Rich's magic hands has also been critical for preventing injury. Thanks Rich for your services, knowledge and expertise in making me a better athlete! read more

In 2016 I got a piriformis injury during marathon training. It kept hurting me but I ignored the pain and ran 2 other marathons after that. Finally the injury got so bad that I could barely run 3 Miles. In 2017 I was registered for 4 marathons and an ultra, the injury was so bad that I had to DNS every single one of those races. I was devastated. In 2018 I finally decided that Ive had enough and started seeing JULIO consistently to address my injury. After just 3 sessions I finally started feeling better. I was able to run again, even if it was just 3 Miles. Now it has been over 4 months of consistent massage therapy with Julio and I am SO SO SOOO happy to be able to call myself a runner again. I am gaining my speed and endurance back but most importantly I am finally running pain free! VFE will forever have a special place in my heart. They know what running means to me and have made sure that I am able to reconnect with my passion. Thank you so much VFE, I promise to keep up with all the stretching and strengthening advice you've given me as well as keep my massage therapy sessions in rotation! read more

I've had the luck to have work done by both Tricia and Rich, although Tricia has become my regular therapist. They are both amazing! Tricia is very intuitive and knowledgeable regarding the human body and especially as it relates to issues due to athletic performance and exertion. I try to see her at least once a week and I can say that it helps tremendously with recovery and prevention of injuries. I am an Olympic weightlifter and must constantly get bodywork done for optimal performance, and Tricia helps me every time. I cannot live without their services and cannot recommend them enough!!! read more

I came to see Chris about 6 months ago after being in severe back pain for about 3 months. I was so sad about my back pain because it caused me to stop doing the things I loved such as lifting. Even simple things like getting out of bed or picking things up off the ground became unbearable. After seeing Chris on a weekly basis for the first month, I start to see a significant decrease in my pain and also more mobility in my movements when I was lifting. I love that Chris takes his time during each session and gives you an explanation of what he's doing and where you're pain is coming from. Most importantly, Chris is very professional, always on time and his attention is 110% on his client. Chris also provides you with tips and stretches that will also assist with mobility and reducing the pain quicker. I really owe Chris so much for helping me be pain free because I had already resigned to living with my back pain for forever. With Chris's help, I am now back to lifting. read more

Chelsea is fantastic. I achieved a cycling goal unattainable without her. She makes me feel like I'm her only client.

There is a reason why there is a Rich in enRICHment! I have never had a more fulfilling and amazing massage as I had with Rich! The fancy day spa leave me feeling still tense. Rich understands how athletes or even strenuous office work affects the body and is able to miraculously feel like a new person after one of his sessions! He is truly passionate and very informative. I recommend everyone to go to Rich! He is a great guy and is an inspiration! read more

My most definite go to Physical Therapy professional experts. As an athlete and specially an ultra runner my body takes severe punishment and it is very important to have the body muscles in perfect alignment and nice and relaxed. Rich Lorton and his staff are very knowledgeable on what every athlete needs to be efficient for their particular sport. Rich will educate the athlete on the muscle structure and why sometimes our pain might coming from the spot we feel it. He will thoroughly explain the source and area it's originating from and work on getting it back to normal function. Many times I have pointed to him where I have discomfort and he will immediately point where the main problem begins. I love how well he explains every muscle function and how to be more efficient at staying in better health. It is important for me to have him keep my legs nice and relaxed to be able to continue being an efficient ultra runner. I've been running for 40+ years and I'm glad to have Vision for Enrichment as my go to professionals. Thank you so much Rich Lorton and staff for the great help you have been giving my legs and to keep me running after all these years. read more

If you are an active person with a nagging injury, highly recommend you visit with Rich. I've held back on training for another Ironman figuring my current injury would lead to my retirement. I went to a highly recommended chiropractor who was useless. I figured an MRI would be next. More $$ down the drain. Luckily, I met Rich and he diagnosed me after a brief conversation! He got me like no other. After a few sessions, he has educated me on total body awareness that I did not have beforehand. I'm now gearing up for my 3rd Ironman thanks to him. If you are an active person who wants to maintain that lifestyle, Rich will help!! read more

I highly recommend VFE! 5 stars way the *#%$ up! Chelsea is awesome and after 3 sessions this is the best I've felt in about a year. I wrecked my back doing CrossFit a year ago and have been dealing with left body issues (low back, groin, glute, etc.) and nothing seemed to help much despite multiple visits to chiropractors and massage therapists. Every session focuses on a different area and I just feel like my range of motion is coming back and my whole body just feels less stiff. Thank you so much VFE, you have been a game changer! read more

I am a runner so I always feel a little tense in my legs before big races and when I feel like feeling relaxed I go with Rich and I let him work his magic. All he needs is an hour session and after I come out feeling better than before. Then am all ready for my up coming race, so I strongly recommend Rich to anybody that is an athlete or even if you have any type of pain in your body. read more

Rich was highly recommended by a friend and I am so glad I found him. I am finally able to run free of pain after just a couple of visits.

I do not know where to start with this review as VFE and Rich have been a big component to my physical and mental well being. I recall the days where Rich would set up in the lonely corner of Cross Fit Ganbatte (2012ish) with few to clients before everyone realized the riches Richie rich had to offer. When I started with Rich I had chronic back pain that stemmed from an injury. I was going to the chiro regularly that helped for a min but cleared out my wallet real quick. I saw a phys med md that was eager to offer me steroid injections. I went to physical therapy that temporary relieved symptoms, but as I continued to train my pain continued to progress and affect my daily activities. I was at my wits end, defeated and accepting the fact that I would just have to deal with having chronic pain. The pain translated to frustration and even depression...Then que Rich. Rich taught me the importance of proper soft tissue maintenance. Rich took the time to identify my problem areas, knead out the tight spots and teach me what I needed to do to nip those issues in the butt! Not only that, he taught me patience with my healing. The work and attention Rich has put into my recovery has helped me heal and overcome my chronic pain issues. The dedication that Rich puts into VFE and every single client is hands down top notch. His genuine interest in your well being is evident from the get go. You know you're getting your moneys worth with Rich! Aside from the long history of how amazing Rich and VFE is.. his massages hands down will leave your muscles feeling relaxed and energized. Whether your a high level athlete, or just a busy mama as myself... you will benefit from getting body work done with Rich! read more

We love Tricia! Tricia is so awesome that I had to open a yelp account under my husband's email to give her the individual review she deserves =) We have had the opportunity to get massages from Tricia back when she used to do comp sessions under Rich's mentoring back in 2013. From the get go, Tricia has always been very attentive and thorough with each of her sessions. She identifies your problem areas, works out all your tight spots, increases mobility and relieves those aches and pains. Tricia also educates you on the muscles that are giving you grief and ways to lengthen them and improve mobility. Regardless how long your session is, she maxes her time with you to ensure that you walk away moving and feeling better than when you first walked in. Though her schedule gets booked pretty quickly, she has always been able make some time to squeeze in an appointment. She has even been open and flexible to make house calls on occasion. I truly trust Tricia with the same esteem as I do with Rich. They are a great team and both hold the same passion and skill for their craft, with a genuine interest in helping each of their clients. read more

I've seen Tricia on and off for about 1.5 years, and I couldn't be happier with her services! She knows her stuff, she takes her time working out every one of your issues, she's a lovely person to chat with... She's the best! (And I have a mom who's a massage therapist, so I know!!) read more
