Rising Sun Physical Therapy and Wellness

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Natsuko for over a year now. I first started physical therapy because I twisted my ankle--not just once, but 4 times consecutively over the course of 4 months. Natsuko has not only helped me regain my balance and strengthened my ankle, she has also helped me work on my whole body so I can stand and move better. She is absolutely amazing and the best PT I've ever worked with! Highly recommend Rising Sun PT!

Fantastic experience: Dr Natsuko came highly recommended so I decided to give her a try. She is remarkable. My drop foot bothered me for >20 years and within a few months, with exercise and muscle strengthening, my gait is near perfect. I am very pleased with these results. Dr. Natsuko also worked on my ankle which improved my gait mechanics and balance. Dr. Natsuko is working on my TMJ and now I can yawn and not hear clicking. She is always positive and a true professional. She is knowledgable and I can see her thinking and trying to solve my problem. Each patient is different and she individualizes the treatment. The suggestions and recommendations vary so I don’t get bored doing the same exercise. The equipment and office area is clean and always sanitized between each patient. Everyone is friendly and helpful. Pictured is my homework, marble exercise to help my drop foot.

Fantastic experience: 2 years ago I underwent a prostate biopsy, and about a month after the procedure I started experiencing severe inflammation and pain. I was told I had an infection related to the biopsy procedure. Two infections and five different antibiotics over a year and a half with very little comfort during that time. It was determined that I had prostatitis. I desperately wanted to get my life back to normal after enduring so much discomfort for so long. I wasn't able to do what I loved in mountain biking due to the ongoing pain. I was referred to Rising Sun Physical Therapy for pelvic floor therapy as sort of a Hail Mary. I saw Bettina, who told me she could help me get rid of it. Admittedly, I had little confidence because nothing, including acupuncture had worked yet. After several weeks, I am nearly 100%, back to riding, and I owe Bettina and her staff so much I can barely put it into words without getting emotional. Bettina is a very funny, witty magician who knows what she's doing, and she has a friend for life. Thank you so very much Bettina!

Fantastic experience: I was treated for a chronic neck injury that I aggravated from Jiu Jitsu. I've been to many physical therapists over the years for it, as well as massage therapists. Natsuko's methods were far less painful than those I've experienced previously and I felt immediate results. Prior to seeing her, it was hard just to stand. Afterwards, I could actually turn my head with decent range. THANK YOU

Fantastic experience: I definitely recommend this place. About a year ago I started having severe pain in the big toe of my left foot. At times the pain was so bad that I could barely put any weight on it. I love to run and do martial arts and obviously this led to problems. I found out I have Hallux Rigidus; but the main problem was that my ORTHOPEDIC DOCTOR told me that "There's not really much you can do for that." Well after researching the condition I tried physical therapy at this practice and needless to say, my pain has decreased 80%. I can do my activities now without having to worry about my toe hurting so bad. I worked with Mike Russo. He did a particularly good job at restoring movement in my big toe, which helped alleviate a lot of the pain.
