Sound Body Physical Therapy

Fantastic experience: A great place to build up the muscles to dance better! My youngest is trying to work up strength to go on point, and the therapist has been really helpful

Fantastic experience: Complete professionalism throughout the office but pain relief and they show you how to use tools and methods at home. I've been going to Dorothy for over ten years. She has become the first person I go to for pain relief and complex back help. A long with hip, post surgery information. The help does not end or begin with only PT. You will find so much more there.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Mariah Frank is a million times better than a prior pelvic floor physical therapist who I had made zero progress with. I came to Sound Body--and Mariah--as a “high complexity” case. I was discouraged, defeated, shamed, and hostile toward the entire PT process, and told Mariah this right up front. Mariah immediately validated and encouraged me without question or judgement. They accepted where I was at and we moved on from there. They showed me how important the exercises, and biofeedback, were to my healing and overall wellbeing. They went at my speed and yet challenged me to push myself. They patiently taught me how all the muscle groups, and my breathing, work together. They are a problem solver; nothing came up, from head to toe, that they didn’t know how to address on the spot. They set clear goals and expectations from the beginning so I knew where I was headed. They taught me that I have way more control over how my body works and feels than I ever realized in my 63 years. Under their guidance, we worked against significant emotional damage to make lasting physical progress. Once I “graduate,” I know I’ll be on the road to better fitness and I’ll understand how to get there and maintain! I will forever be grateful for my time under Mariah’s care. (And, begrudgingly, the doctors who pushed me back into physical therapy when I did NOT want to try again.) I have the utmost respect for Dr. Mariah Frank. I will return to them if I ever need more help in the future, and I cannot recommend Dr. Frank highly enough!

Fantastic experience: Had very good experiences with Beth. She was always respectful of my gender identity and my disability, and her care was expertly tailored to my needs.

Fantastic experience: Beth at Sound Body is the most compassionate physical therapist I've ever worked with. I've had physical therapists in the past that type your condition into a system, do some poking around, and spit out a list of exercises for you to do. Beth works with you individually, with your body and your goals, to develop a plan with you to get you to where you want to be. There was a period of time where I was not able to attend appts. I was nervous when I returned there would be finger wagging or frustration toward me for backpedaling but Beth was nothing but supportive. Beyond being the kind of care provider I wish every care provider was more like, Beth also clearly has a lot of knowledge and experience with pelvic floor and core work. It's really helpful to hear her explain why we're working on what we're working on as we go along. She really meets you where you're at with exercises. Also, Christina, the office's scheduler and biller, is so friendly and on top of her game. She frequently gives me a call for openings in the schedule and is prompt with getting back to me if I have questions for her. Speaking from my own experience, this is a wonderful place for women and people in larger bodies to do physical therapy, particularly if you are working on pelvic floor strengthening.

Fantastic experience: Brooke is the best! Super helpful through an injury, birth deformity, and post-surgical care.

Fantastic experience: Beth has given me the gift of living without pain and of helping me to get to know my body in important ways. She is so skilled, knowledgeable, and not at all squeamish. I am so grateful to have been sent to her for care.

Fantastic experience: Very professional, friendly and amazing staff here. I love that they weren’t trying to upsell me here into some long term plan that I didn’t need, but instead addressed my needs as an individual and made a plan that works for my schedule and budget. Highly recommend this place!

Fantastic experience: I've been working with Dorothy now for the past couple of months. I am so impressed by her work ethic, her intelligence and her ability to communicate body movement through words. She's opened up a new world for me and given me much needed strength.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Dorothy Epstein is extremely knowledgeable, helpful and compassionate. She has helped three generations of my family with a wide array of physical challenges. Sound Body's clinic is spacious, well equipped, and never crowded. There are three high-quality air purifiers running all the time, so I feel less likely to catch a virus there than at any other medical or therapy office I've visited.

Fantastic experience: Beth is an amazing therapist! I've been coming to her for a couple of months now for hip and pelvic floor therapy and have definitely noticed an improvement! She's very knowledgeable and takes the time to make sure I'm aware of what we're doing and why every step of the way. She's professional and uses our time efficiently. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for exceptional care.

Fantastic experience: Great experience here with Lauren. She is attentive, realistic and comprehensive! Recommend!

Fantastic experience: I've worked mostly with Beth Fitzgerald, but have also done short stints with others here. Everybody is skilled, personable, and just super helpful and encouraging. Reception staff is great too.

Fantastic experience: My acupuncturist, Carrie Klein at Alberta Street Acupuncture, (shout out to Carrie, she is fantastic!) recommended me to Sound Body Physical Therapy. I have very complex upper and lower back issues from a childhood injury. I have been to many, many physical therapists in my life and usually find that they just give you stretches and exercises and send you on your way. Not Sound Body. They listen, test, observe, and then work WITH you. Tomiko has been amazing in helping me regain strength, mobility and flexibility while working on getting my body/spine to the point where I can actually start doing exercises that will help me in the long run. She took the time to get to know my issues and actually told me that we have to work out kinks before exercises and stretches will do any good. What a concept! She also is keeping it real in that she is setting the expectation that it took a long time for my body to get where it is - messed up - and it will take a while to get out of the mess it is in. I really appreciate that honesty and respect for my condition. I can not recommend Sound Body highly enough. They accept most insurances, but I am a nurse and my organization likes to keep its employees in its grips, so my insurance does not cover going to Sound Body. I pay for it out of pocket, and don't regret a penny of what I spend there. That is how good they are.
