Return2Play Physical Therapy and Performance

Experiencia fantástica: Had been having a knee issue for over a year. Had gone to my regular doctor who prescribed exercises that didn’t seem to make a difference so I decided to go a different direction. Reached out to Phillip at Return2Play for a consultation and afterwards decided to work with him on a program which was easy to follow along with on the app. Fast forward a few months later with consistent application of the program and I was able to achieve my goal of hiking to the top of half dome with my son.

Experiencia fantástica: I had prior shoulder surgery and was continually losing mobility. I’m usually able to work through and resolve my o WM physical issues, but not this one, it just kept getting worse making it harder to exercise or just be physically active. Phillip helped identify the problem work to fix my specific issues and give me the tools to help myself in the future. Now I’m back to exercising and enjoying physical activities without the restrictions or pain.

Experiencia fantástica: I was experiencing elbow pain going into RTP and thought I needed Tommy John and got my arm feeling better than ever. I always thought that over time the elbow pain would fix itself and it never did, and as I started to work with RTP he finally showed me what to do and get me doing the exercises to get better everyday.

Experiencia fantástica: After having issues with my right hip after a car accident working out and daily activities would bother me then after doing work with Phil his methods! By the 3rd appointment I was feeling like my old self and he added different exercises to help strengthen my hip along with other issues I didn’t realize I was having! Now working out and other activities are not as painful or annoying!! Highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: My son, a high-school sophomore, pulled his hamstring in early-March at the beginning of track season. We heard about Return2Play through our association with MYSA-AJAX and decided see if rehab could salvage his track season. Though he did not rule out a quick recovery, Philip was honest and upfront about the unpredictability of hamstring injury and recovery. (If not for a set-back - coming back to full-speed too soon - and against Philip’s recommendation - he would have been able to make the end of track season) We really appreciated the communication and ease in which we received updated rehab exercises. No upselling or unrealistic expectations. Straight talk and a well thought out series of exercises to get him back on the field for summer football. Would recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a rotator cuff injury that occurred in February. I was not getting the attention I needed from Kaiser. I was afraid I was going to need surgery for my rotator cuff, however I came across Phillip on Instagram and gave him a shot in September. Phillip is very thorough and attentive throughout our sessions. My session ended early December and now I am able to comfortably do overhead movements. I do not have any lingering pain as well. I still practice the stretches and movements he has taught me. I highly recommend Phillip for any physical therapy needs!

Experiencia fantástica: If you have any pain this the place to get it fixed. I went in with back pain and left with no back pain.

Experiencia fantástica: I was suffering from a work injury (herniated discs) and ran out of physical therapy sessions. I continued the prescribed exercises, but they just weren’t doing it for me. I still had pain and tightness around the area of injury. Return2Play is different from your standard physical therapy offices. Phillip is personable, actually cares about his patients, and takes the time to diagnose the injury to determine the best path for recovery. The exercises require minimal equipment and can be done almost anywhere, so you don’t need the fancy gym machines. Cupping and scraping also helped loosen up my areas of injury and I feel so much better afterwards. I’m still recovering, but I have better range of motion and able to workout more than when I went through the physical therapy provided by worker’s comp. Also, being a first responder, my body has a lot imbalances from the equipment/gear I wear for work. Phillip has also helped me address those issues as well and it has been life altering!

Experiencia fantástica: I went to return2play physical therapy with horrible tennis elbow. Phillip put me on a great regiment and we checked in weekly until my elbow was fully back to normal. While checking in with him weekly we also addressed some Glute and hamstring issues that have been ongoing for years. I’m happy to say that I feel great, and I am living life pain-free! Would not hesitate to recommend Phillip to anyone who wants to stay active and pain free as they grow older.

Experiencia fantástica: I started working with Return2Play after I injured my hamstring deadlifting. After 12 weeks working with Philip I am deadlifting and squatting again pain free and with more mobility than before. I would and do recommend Return2Play to anyone who is looking to enjoy physical activity without pain.

Experiencia fantástica: One year ago I was involved in a motorcycle accident that left me with a broken spine and a very tight neck. The pain from the accident limited a lot of my occasional activities- I dealt with this pain for a year before I started my physical therapy treatment, the entire year I was in pain and within one week of my therapy my pain had decreased by over 50%. I am now only in my third session with four more to go and I am confident I will be pain free at that point.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been having back issues for years. Very few months I’ve ended up in the Chiropractor’s office, can’t move for a week, and can’t go to the gym. Any type of squats were too daunting at the gym. So, I didn’t have a specific event that led me to PT, but a desire to get stronger and be able to stay in the gym. So far it’s been great! No flare ups and I’ve been back in the gym, doing squats, pain free. Phillip is awesome!

Experiencia fantástica: I started having discomfort in my lower back, and was no longer able to work out. At time so much pain that i was unable to walk straight. I had to figured out a solution. I heard about return2play, decided to give them a try. Since then, I feel amazing. I am able to work out again do all the activities I love. He adjusted the workouts according to my needs . Definitely recommend him to anybody that’s going through any aches or pains to give them a call. Phillip is very understanding and helpful.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been working with Philip for several weeks & have noticed improvements on my knee. He knows exactly what exercises & stretch’s to help the mobility & flexibility for my injury. He also explains to me in ways that I can see & understand my progression. He is definitely worthy trying if you have any injuries. And a very personable guy!

Experiencia fantástica: About six years ago I had ACL and meniscus surgery and thought I was good to go. But over time my body started to compensate for my ‘bad knee’ and this created more problems. I was able to work with Phillip for a few months and have seen tremendous improvement. He spent time going back to the basics and not only correcting my body positioning, but also helping me build up my smaller muscles to support my movements. My pain and inflammation is to a minimum. And when I do have a flair up, I now have the tools and knowledge to work through it in a helpful way.

Experiencia fantástica: I'm at a loss of words right now!! I tweaked my neck really bad training and after my 1st treatment I'm beyond blown away on the mobility I have right now. Not only did he treat the issue he took the time to explain new stretching techniques. Highly recommend, very professional and patient.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been dealing with very strong pain in my hip for months! I didn’t even expect to seek out physical therapy but found Philip on Instagram and he reached out and got me set up for both phone and in-person consults. He’s on top of his game! It’s been several sessions now and my hip is not only getting stronger but the pain has reduced incredibly! Philip knows what he’s talking about, is personable, and 100% cares about the patient and getting them back to moving properly. Don’t wait too long like I did. He can help you out!

Experiencia fantástica: My son was treated by Phillip and the results have been outstanding! My son is a very active kid and had limited mobility in his throwing arm. After every visit with Phillip, his arm felt great! Look forward to having Phillip in our corner for years to come

Experiencia fantástica: I use to be a very active girl. My passion was running and staying full on active. I hurt my knee 9 years ago and completely lost the ability to run or even exercise. I tried several therapy sessions and fell into depression as I lost hope for ever running again. Phillip made it happen. I am now running painlessly and can't wait for my further progress. So grateful for Phillip.

Experiencia fantástica: About 6 years ago, I totally messed up my shoulder and dealt with constant pain for the last 6 years. Felt like I've tried absolutely everything and just couldn't find any relief. I signed up for a mobility class at my gym and that's where I was introduced to Return2Play. After participating in about 2 classes, I really enjoyed it and felt relief for the areas of focus. I've now been participating in physical therapy for a few weeks and the amount of relief I am FINALLY feeling in my shoulder was shocking. Pain level went from a constant 10 to 4 in my first 2 visits. I'm really excited to see where I am once I reach the end of my sessions. I didn't think finding relief was an option, so really glad I made the decision to work with Return2Play

Experiencia fantástica: About 7 years ago I injured my knee. It has gotten progressively worse. I met Phillip when he did a squat class at my boot camp. I decided to go and see him and it has been a game changer. My knee feels better and he is working on getting it to straighten out, using numerous techniques and home exercises. My knee started at a 20 degree bend and as of today, it is down to 11-12 degrees! This is a huge change! Phillip is very knowledgeable and professional. He educates you along the way so that you understand why you are doing certain exercises, etc. I would highly recommend Return2Play for your Physical Therapy needs.

Experiencia fantástica: I had been dealing with lower back/SI joint/hip pain for over a year. It started to become progressively worse and I was doing everything to try and alleviate the pain. However nothing I did was really helping. I didn’t plan on doing physical therapy but my coach at the gym introduced me to Philip in hopes he could help me. I was struggling at the gym due to my pain and was getting discouraged. I immediately started to feel a difference in how I felt even after the first week of working with Philip.. It’s now been 5 weeks and I can’t believe how much better I feel! I’m even doing exercises at the gym that I couldn’t do before due to the pain. If you have any type of pain, give Return2Play a chance. I’m sure glad i did! Philip is very knowledgeable and really seems to care about his clients and getting them pain free.

Experiencia fantástica: After a car accident, I lost mobility and began to experience a lot of lower back and neck pain during my training. The pain got so severe that I was no longer able to train in the gym. I found out about Return2Play and booked my appointment in hopes that it could help. Two sessions were all it took for me to be back in the gym - absolutely pain free! Since working with Return2Play I’ve felt amazing doing day-to-day tasks and training. I’d highly recommend Return2Play as Phillip takes his time to diagnose exactly what your issue is and works his magic to make sure you are not only healed, but also takes his time to educate you on how you can prevent this pain from reoccurring.
