Movement Health Science

Fantastic experience: Doug is amazing

Fantastic experience: I had one of the most amazing experiences here, and I highly recommend any high performing athlete to come visit. I've seen several different PTs, experts, physicians, etc. who've all told me the same thing: That my back pain from years of running, could not be fixed. However, all this changed after I visited Movement Health Science. My experience was the following: Doug (who was extremely sympathetic and genuinely cared about me) first took some measurements from me and then reviewed my running pattern, measured my strength & movement data, and utilized analytics to capture my biomechanics. This was unlike any other sports or physical therapy clinic I've ever seen. I was completely blown away by the amount of data and insights collected by the team. After this, the team provided some customized programming that was based on data; not on what subject matter experts 'think' is right. Within a few weeks, my pain started to dissipate and I could continue running. As the team started focusing on more areas of improvement, I gradually started seeing my performance shoot up, as my running pattern started to become more 'optimal.' 3 months later, and I'm as happy as I can be. I'm blown away that this place doesn't have more reviews because this was the only spot that fixed me and allowed me to become a better athlete. Thank you Movement Health Science team! I will forever be indebted to you guys!!

Fantastic experience: Movement health Science has become an amazing resource for me to further develop my soccer ability. Doug and his team have properly diagnosed the problems I have experienced due to injury and helped me quickly remedy these problems. Learning the source and the appropriate remedy of the aches or pains I feel has allowed me to feel more confident playing at 100% intensity.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been through 3 knee surgeries and have been with many pt’s but Doug has been by far the best. The one on one focus and technology that he has is hard to find anywhere else. He has helped me tremendously get ready for my college soccer season in the fall.

Fantastic experience: Doug was instrumental in helping me recover from my second foot surgery. I was so frustrated and disappointed to have to endure a second surgery and recovery, but his encouragement and knowledge helped me get back to 100%. Doug was always willing to listen to my concerns and address them to aid in my recovery. I hope I don't need to, but I would definitely work with Doug again!

Fantastic experience: I developed an excruciating pain that began in my mid back on my left side. I visited my primary care who prescribed physical therapy. I woke up one morning with excruciating pain in my thighs down to my shin. After calling 4 physical therapy centers in my primary care network and they all had no appointments for the next 30 days to three months, out of desperation, I went to the internet and found Movement Health Science. First appointment - an in depth evaluation. It was not a mad dash to collect hourly rate and be done. Second appointment - treatment. I hollered but at the end, I walked in barely walking, I walked out with a little spring in my step. Third appointment- more treatment but by then pain of 20 was about a 4. It was a brief encounter (3 visits), but today I am pain free. I unequivocally recommend Doug. Don't worry about the money. Don't worry about not getting insurance to cover. Pay it and get your problem taken care of. It will be worth the results you will get. I am a woman of color and I jokingly asked if he ever treated anyone of color before. Doug smiled and I believe was somewhat taken aback that I asked the question. Bottom line, he treats all with respect and with the same care. That is very important to me especially given our current environment of race inequality.

Fantastic experience: Doug is incredibly knowledgeable, professional and really cares about getting clients healthy and back better than before. As a former D-1 college athlete, I've worked with many PT's and performance experts, and Doug is by far the smartest and most effective person I have ever worked with. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Without a doubt the most talented and knowledgeable professionals I have ever worked with. Without exaggeration, working w Doug truly changed my life. His knowledge of body mechanics and how he is able to diagnose the issues and put together a comprehensive follow up plan just doesn’t exist anywhere. And I should know because I was treated by many people that were supposed experts but no one could help. I now have zero pain and am athletically at my peak!

Fantastic experience: Movement Health Science has allowed me to continue to play at the college level. I have dealt with back injuries for years that have kept me sidelined. I had tried various methods to rehab it from traditional physical therapy to pilates. However after working with Doug and the team at Movement Health Science, my back pain had gone away and my back became noticeably stronger. Doug’s knowledge and care is second to none. He really invests in the athletes he works with, as he consistently checks in with me and does all he can to make sure my back issues do not return. The facility is also amazing, with some of the most advanced equipment to analyze every movement. Learning from the equipment and Doug helped me become a better and more efficient athlete. I am very thankful for my time I spent at Movement Health Science and the help that they have given me.

Fantastic experience: As a former elite DI runner, working with Movement Health Science provided me the insights to return back into a professional career as a runner. The leading edge technology, combined with Doug’s 20 years of clinical experience, is something I have never experienced before at the DI level. I am extremely excited to move forward as a professional runner and to have Movement Health Science guide my journey.

Fantastic experience: I was feeling very discouraged about nerve pain in my leg, that I had been living with for over a year, when I first came to Movement Health Science. Acupuncture and stretching just weren't doing the trick. Doug gave me so much hope that he could figure out the source of the problem... and he did! By the second session he diagnosed the mechanics of what was happening and gave me the tools I needed to move past this pain. I am so thankful for his knowledge and expertise! Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I cannot speak highly enough of this company and program. I’m a high performance athlete that’s struggled for years with various injuries that I now realize could have been prevented if I had found movement health science earlier. After working with them for a few months I move better than I ever have, have more confidence in my body, and have relationships that will last for my athletic career and beyond. Doug and his team are working on a level of detail that no other team in athletics are working at and it’s no coincidence that some of the best athletes in the world rely on them to improve and enhance their performance.

Fantastic experience: Definitely my go to trainer and I would never go anywhere else. They have superb knowledge and take great care in tailoring the work to your needs and making sure you progress. I saw results almost immediately.

Fantastic experience: Movement Health Science has improved my athletic ability with insights I have never been given in my 6 years of receiving direct athletic coaching. I never had the tools to figure out what was limiting my success on the lacrosse field until working one on one with Doug where he discovered a significant discrepancy in the strength of my quads and the strength/engagement with my hip flexors and glutes. The unique exercises and stretches that Doug catered to me with a straightforward program improved my speed, agility, and overall success on the lacrosse field. The best part of Movement Health Science is Doug's curiosity and passion for sports rehabilitation and his eagerness to find the source of a problem and not to simply put temporary band aids on pain/discrepancies that his athletes are facing. Doug and Mark cultivate a wonderful environment at MHS and I would 10/10 recommend this sports medicine center to any athlete or person looking to take their athletic abilities to the next level.

Fantastic experience: I was having some serious knee pain due to running. It didn't matter how much time I took off, the pain kept coming back. I went to a sports doctor, chiropractor, and a physical therapist, but they couldn't figure out my problem. Months had gone by, and I began to wonder if I would ever be able to run with pleasure again. Besides being an athlete, I'm also a high school coach. One of my coaching peers recommended that I see his friend, Doug, who specializes in using bio-mechanics to understand and address overuse injuries. He put me through a battery of tests to identify my strengths and weaknesses. Through his analysis, he identified shortcomings and where I was overcompensating. It turned out I didn't have a knee injury, but rather a weak response in my glutes. Once we identified the issue, Doug put me on regimen that allowed me to get back to running in a few weeks. I've been running pain free for months! Thanks, Doug!

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Movement Health Science. After struggling with hip pain for eight months, I went to see Doug (based on a friend's recommendation) to see what he could do to help. A combination of tissue manipulation, precision exercises, and a return-to-running routine that used their Alter-G low gravity treadmill got me back to running within weeks...and back to running ultramarathons in a few months. After being injured for so long, it was such a relief to be able to move past it. I felt like Doug and crew listened very well to my specific difficulties, my goals, and the myriad of things I'd already tried. They then did a thorough assessment to uncover underlying issues and get to the root of the problem. Doug really knows what he's doing! So many professional athletes turn to him for help and their facility has state-of-the-art equipment to diagnose and help treat whatever mobility or strength issue people have. Thank you again for helping me return to my favorite sport! I wholeheartedly recommend Movement Health Science.
