Tula Physical Therapy & Wellness

Fantastic experience: Shift has been an incredible experience. Sal, who manages the billing department, has been incredibly helpful. I have a very unique catastrophic insurance plan through AMA and it gives everyone headaches. It was definitely giving Sal a bit of trouble initially, but his communication throughout was extraordinary and he did get everything straightened out rather quickly. As for the atmosphere of the place, I absolutely love it. The PT area is a huge open space with brand new equipment that is all maintained very well (super clean). The vibe is really good...good music, lots of laughter, great lighting. The staff is very friendly and knowledgable...and hilarious (see: Leslie Diamond). I've seen numerous patients stop in unsolicited just to say high or update the therapists on how they are doing...occasionally with things totally unrelated to the therapy they received. That's just a testament to the type of relationships that the therapists build with each patient. The staff I have experienced has great communication and expresses a lot of concern for the patients on both a medical/therapeutical and personal level. There seems to be a wide range of ages and injuries there, so they seem to have a good reputation for all levels of therapy. My personal treatment has been excellent. I don't have much to compare it to, but the recovery is definitely ahead of schedule without the feeling like they are pushing me faster than they should. I would definitely recommend ShiftPT.

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough good things about Tula Physical Therapy and Wellness. First, they helped my mother (101 yrs) with all of her balance, and mobility issues. Now I go to Tula for help with lower back issues, lumbar stenosis and pain down one leg. I started working with Heather, who is laying out a plan for me to do the right exercises and stretches that I need to help my pain. As well as exercises that I need to do at home. I love the atmosphere, the people and the one on one attention. I’ve already started feeling better after two sessions, so I am encouraged as always before. I truly love this place and the people!

Fantastic experience: Heather works hard to help me I enjoy the sessions I do the exercises between sessions and that will be key for my getting more healthy

Fantastic experience: I came to Shift with a broken shoulder. Over the course of many months, Lisa Blum worked with me, and now it's back to functioning as it should. She is focused, knowledgeable, listened carefully to my concerns and adjusted exercises as needed. I'm very appreciative of her help and highly recommend her. In addition, the Shift facility is clean, pleasant and well run.

Fantastic experience: HAve consulted therapists for a number of years. Current and past therapists excellent, informative about issues causing problems and treating with very good results. Significant progress with balance and strength issues.

Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience at Tula today. Twenty days out from total knee replacement surgery, I met with Jacinthe Duvinage who clearly laid out my rehab program and worked through each of the exercises, answering all of my many questions. She obviously has deep experience with and knowledge of this process. Beyond that, she was very skillful in helping me deal with the pain and aversion that I will need to address to achieve my goals of recovery. I feel greatly supported and encouraged.

Fantastic experience: Heather Mims is a terrific physical therapist. I highly recommend her, as well as Tula Physical Therapy.

Fantastic experience: My physical therapist at Tula PT, Lisa is fantastic. She has helped me enormously by having me use specific exercises, doing manual and machine massages and using applied heat. Lisa focuses on the various physical issues I bring to her attention with genuine concern, expertise and interest. And thru her work and my home regimen, we make the problem disappear.

Fantastic experience: I have had an excellent experience at Tula. As a result of my sessions with Jeremy, I have been able to avoid meniscus surgery and cortisone shots, for which I am very grateful. Jeremy is highly professional, focused and uses our time together efficiently. He prepares a detailed home plan to supplement the studio visits. As a bonus, he is a lovely person with whom to interact. The Tula facility itself is a large, bright, comfortable space with friendly, efficient front desk staff. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: The facility is very clean, spacious and well-equipped with machines, weights, etc. My therapist is very knowledgeable and friendly. She takes notes every session and gives me new exercises based on how I’m feeling that day.

Fantastic experience: I had an shoulder injury and worked with Jacinthe Duvinage. She was caring and competent. She always knew what exercises were best for my full recovery. I’m grateful to have worked with her.

Fantastic experience: Jacinthe is perfect! She is knowledgeable, kind, patient, and helpful. She gives just the right amount of explanation… Not too much, and not too little… And makes me confident that the physical therapy will help.

Fantastic experience: Back in July ‘22 I had a total knee replacement on my right knee and I did my PT at Tula. Then in January’23 I had a total knee replacement on my left knee and there was never any doubt that I would do my PT at Tula again. And the reason for that was their therapist Mike B. Mike is a very knowledgeable and very professional therapist with a gentle touch. He pushes me to get my range of motion back but never too much to make it too uncomfortable. Mike is also very personable with a great sense of humor. Always very pleasant sessions.

Fantastic experience: Tula is tip-top in every aspect. Heather Mins is a sharp, insightful, creative, common-sense PT with verbal acuity and imagination plus a lot of experience. Anders and Olivia at the front desk are warm, patient, quick-thinking. The space is flooded with natural light in three sides with graceful arched windows.

Fantastic experience: This is a great facility. My therapist Heather Sims was terrific. Knowledgeable and very helpful. My observation of other therapists and how they worked with clients led me to believe everyone there was good. Very friendly helpful staff as well. I’d highly recommend to anyone needing PT.

Fantastic experience: I have just completed my series of physical therapy sessions at Tula with Matt and the experience has been truly remarkable. I have taken PT sessions elsewhere and I can honestly say that Matt makes PT something to look forward to. He personalizes each session which is specifically attuned to your body’s needs. He is very knowledgeable and adept at developing a sincere rapport with his patients. The facility is clean, well lit and tranquil and managed so smoothly by a competent, dedicated staff. Anders at the front desk is extremely organized, and scheduling either at the front desk or online is seamless. In a city of many PT options, Tula is a very special place.

Fantastic experience: Have used Tula Physical Therapy several times and am perfectly satisfied with them. They are organized, place is clean, appointments are kept exactly as made, physical therapists are very professional.

Fantastic experience: Shift Wellness is a top notch facility. The staff is helpful and very cordial. Lisa Blum is knowledgeable, patient and gentle. She has led me in the right direction and is attentive to my needs. She’s highly trained and I recommend her without hesitation.

Fantastic experience: Tula takes such good care of me! I’ve had successive injuries since Labor Day, and Lauren Lee is helping me heal through a careful progression of exercises, patience, and clear communication. I’m an aerialist and Lauren shows a strong interest in understanding my physical activities and supporting my goals with her expertise. She is a great listener and attentive to detail. She’s also responsive to my questions over email between appointments, and the app she uses to track my PT program is easy to use and enables me to provide feedback on my progress throughout the week. Adrian Caban is an amazing massage therapist with a strong sports medicine orientation informed by his extensive knowledge of anatomy and movement. He is very intuitive and is helping me correct a number of muscular and postural habits that have made me more prone to injury. He is empathetic and integrates stress management concepts and healthy living advice along the way, which has been tremendously helpful to me. He goes above and beyond and really gives the best massages I’ve ever had! He also offers personal training which I’ll be starting next month and I know that will only further my journey to being stronger and healthier. Though individual appointments are available, Tula’s packages offer a discount and are flexible to use for any of their wellness services or even to gift to a friend. They don’t take insurance but Anders and Olivia at the front desk have been really helpful with my invoices and sorting out occasional issues with my insurer. I highly recommend Tula as a practice, and Lauren and Adrian in particular! Whether you need physical therapy, massage, or other wellness services, this is hands-down the place to go.

Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience at Tula. It's a spacious, beautiful and peaceful place. Matt taught me exercises to get my muscle strength back after having hip replacement surgery. He was very patient and knowledgeable. He also taught me some tai chi to help with balance, which I found calming and relaxing.

Fantastic experience: My trainer, Michael, knows how to fix everything! Desk staff, especially Anders, are beyond helpful and courteous. I’m stronger than ever. I highly recommend Tula!

Fantastic experience: Lisa Blum is a very thoughtful and kind person. She has worked with me to strengthened my shoulder for a little over a month. It is pretty much back to normal. I would recommend her to anyone needing PT and I already have recommened her to a few persons who need PT.

Fantastic experience: I've been suffering from chronic pain for the past four years. I've seen numerous physical therapists without having significant improvement in my condition and having to do exercises which often themselves cause me pain while doing them. I came to Lisa Blum here in Shift, and I've never met someone who cares so much about what they do and how sincere and thorough they are. She has worked with me to come up with two exercise programs - one for yoga and another for physical therapy exercises. She's patiently worked with me to find the right set of exercises which I am able to do without pain, and am able to progress with them. It just amazes me to see how much she cares about the well being of her patients.

Fantastic experience: Lauren Lee has provided and guided me through an excellent regimen of coordinated exercises which have dramatically improved my mobility and alleviated my pain. This also eliminated my dependence on pain relievers. Her patience, manner and demeanor are all first rate. She excels at what she does and I look forward to our sessions.

Fantastic experience: My family has a long, extremely positive history with Shift Wellness. My son came here to rehabilitate after two major orthopedic surgeries, and they were fantastic. And now, physical therapist Lisa Blum at Shift is making great progress with my back problems and generally getting me back in shape. I can't say enough about the cheerful, postive, can-do attitude at Shift, or the expertise of their professionals.

Fantastic experience: I have done training with Heather Mims over the past eight months and feel eminently grateful for her expertise and care. One of her signature qualities is precision: her knowledge of bones, muscles, tendons leads her to suggest even smallest physical adjustments to make any exercise maximally beneficial. The variety she has introduced in our sessions has kept me on my toes and made it fun. I look forward to continuing with Heather and thank her for making me stronger.

Fantastic experience: Jeremy; my physical therapist, showed me very clearly how to perform the exercises that would improve my shoulder. In my opinion, he is an excellent therapist. I would recommend his services to my friends and relatives. My shoulder did improve, and I expect it will get back to "normal".

Fantastic experience: Currently on my third round of therapy at Shift, 3 occasions all requiring different therapies. A knee injury, a spinal injury and currently a Parkinson’s diagnosis. On my first visit I was assigned to Jeremy, based on that experience, I have requested Jeremy as my therapist on the following occasions. I was confident that Jeremy would develop the best program to address the recovery from my injury. Always encouraging my progress without pushing me beyond my ability

Fantastic experience: I am more than satisfied with my experience at Shift and with Lisa Blum. She is professional, very competent, and always responsive to questions and concerns. Additionally, her treatment plan is tailored to the client; she can adjust the exercise regimen quickly based on progress or discomfort by checking in frequently with the client. She did a wonderful job with me and I feel that a great deal of my progress is due to her ongoing and flexible assessment of my progress and vast repertory of exercises. She should be considered a great value to Shift!

Fantastic experience: Shift staff are welcoming, helpful and very knowledgeable. Jeremy is clearly committed to his clients, very experienced and always thinking about his clients issues and how to help them feel better! Shift is a great place for PT. I can’t say enough about how helpful, supportive and professional all the staff are!

Fantastic experience: Shift follows all the protocols for Covid health. The tables are cleaned after each use. My therapist, Lisa, makes sure all of the equipment is wiped down before use. Lisa understands my problems and is working on building my strength and confidence so I can move forward. Lisa is intuitive, smart and most lovely.

Fantastic experience: The staff is very courteous, friendful and ready to help. Dr. Graham is my kind of doctor..He invites you to talk to him and he really listens, showing the utmost concern for you as his patient. So I'm very much at ease when I visit him. My daughter has really put me in capable and good hands.

Fantastic experience: Sarah was wonderful. She helped me regain my strength and flexibility after a broken elbow. I found her very knowledgeable and very pleasant to work with. The videos of the exercises were extremely helpful as well. Anders, the office manager, was also helpful with dealing with my insurance, providing the additional documentation required and not charging me until the insurance had processed the claims fully.

Fantastic experience: I couldn't be more pleased with my experience at Shift Integrative Medicine. The staff is amazing. Sarah Bogorad Mintz, my physical therapist, is simply top notch. She walks you through each exercise, takes the time to explain its purpose and helps you master it so that you maximize its benefits. She varies the routines, taking advantage of all the equipment they have to offer. She's patient and incredibly encouraging. I'm getting toward the tail end of treatment and so grateful for all her help. The facilities are clean and well-equipped and the rest of the staff couldn't be more friendly and welcoming. Really, if you have to go through PT, I would highly recommend Shift.

Fantastic experience: The Staff at Shift PT, from the Front Desk to the Therapists, are absolutely fantastic. From the time one arrives until the time one leaves you always feel welcome no matter what time of the day. Anders and Fatima at the Front Desk, who always have a smile on their face, are so courteous, top notch and so pleasant to deal with whether making or changing appointments or dealing with insurance issues. The atmosphere at Shift PT is professional and yet has a personal touch which includes all the staff. To My Physical Therapists, Matt Leve, Lindsay Grobman and Massage therapist Elizabeth Bragg, I want to express my profound gratitude for the quality of service, professional care, treatment and attention I have received from them during my therapy sessions. They have been so very helpful to my being able to recover excellent ranges of motion from a major shoulder surgery and total knee replacements. Through them, I have discovered that no matter what one's age, it is not an excuse to not have a high level of mobility. They have gained my trust as professional care givers and helped me regain my strength and potential through physical exercise, stretching maneuvers, yoga and massage. Matt's Feldenkrais therapy through stretching maneuvers has been extremely effective to increasing my total body mobility. The PT staff has always been encouraging to put things into perspective and providing the tools to get through to a speedy recovery. I look forward to continuing at Shift PT for Physical Fitness, Yoga and Massage and would highly recommend family and friends to this facility. Respectfully submitted.

Fantastic experience: Thank you to the staff at Shift – a talented group of knowledgeable, friendly, and professional individuals. It all starts with Anders, Fatimah, and Taylor who manage the front desk. Warm and cheerful, they go out of their way to help you. Yoga Meeting regularly with Lindsay, my yoga instructor, has been an invaluable investment. Lindsay provides the support I need to begin learning about yoga by customizing my lessons, challenging me, and incorporating calmness into our sessions. She has extensive knowledge of yoga and is a great source of encouragement for me. Massage Therapy Elizabeth and Leslie are very intuitive and talented massage therapists who know their craft. They are professional, respectful, and really tuned in to their clients. They have been terrific in understanding my back problems and finding the right techniques and pressure. All of your efforts truly make a difference and I sincerely thank you!

Fantastic experience: Shift is wonderful! It is very clean and continues to be cleaned all during the day. I mainly have been working with Rachel Parrotta and she is a great therapist. I've made a lot of progress with her and am looking forward to making more. Within 10 minutes she had figured me out. She is very encouraging. The rest of the staff is very nice and the front office is great too. I've had physical therapy in several different places but none of them can hold a candle to Shift. When you need physical therapy run (if you can) to Shift.
