Functional Phyzio and Performance Therapy - Durham

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Norah was so helpful! After I started running regularly, I needed some help to figure out form and strength exercises. She is so kind and understanding!

Experiencia fantástica: Great Physical therapist!

Experiencia fantástica: Jon was able to quickly get me back to doing what I love, and everyone in the office is extremely kind. I have learned so much through my experience with them. I would highly recommend to anyone seeking treatment.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience at Functional Phyzio! Everyone there is so wonderful to work with and I felt like they really cared from the moment I walked in. I look forward to continuing my care there.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Norah and the crew at Functional Phyzio are the best! They are knowledgable and kind and provide personalized care that will get you better fast and prevent future injury. Thanks!

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic 1 on 1 personalized therapy. I’m a runner and had seen 3 different sports doctors, had 2 MRI’s, and PT at the big local hospital. No one could give me a straight answer and nothing was working to fix the issue. All of the doctors assumed it was hamstring tendinitis. I had basically accepted this is something chronic I’d have to live with. I saw an ad for Functional Phyzio and made an appointment. Dr. Norah and Segovia are fantastic. I ended up trying a 1 on 1 Stretch & Yoga class with Segovia. After the first class I was a believer. Turns out all of the doctors were diagnosing the wrong area as my hip flexor was the culprit. I signed up for package with Segovia and now I’m almost pain free, my stamina and fitness are climbing back to where it was, and I’m back running long distances again. I can’t wait for race season this fall. Thank you Functional Phyzio!!

Experiencia fantástica: I went to Dr. Norah and Dr. Jon with the goal of addressing some stubborn issues (plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendinitis). Their expert knowledge of body mechanics has not only addressed these issues but has made it possible for me to reach new personal bests thanks to a tailored set of exercises to ensure the issues don’t return. If you have any issues that are preventing your ability to reach your fitness goals, I can’t recommend them enough! Try them and see.

Experiencia fantástica: Don't waste your time looking for any better PT practice in the Durham area. Functional Physio and Performance Therapy has excellent therapists, an excellent client experience and they provide life-changing results. I can not recommend them enough and I am so happy I chose them for my therapy needs!

Experiencia fantástica: Nora has really helped me with lower back/pelvic pain that has bothered me for most of the past 12 years! We've worked on a whole body approach to understand what has caused the condition and how to increase strength to prevent the pain I feel, and retrain my body to learn how to prevent it coming back. I have been thrilled by the results thus far and I'm still going!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah and her team are amazing! She is very knowledgeable and is dedicated to making sure you get the best 1 on 1 care. As a fellow PT myself, I would highly recommend her or anyone at Functional Phyzio. Her admin team also makes scheduling/answering questions a breeze!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Norah is the best PT I have ever worked with and I have worked with a lot! She is extremely knowledgable, uses a variety of techniques and is very thorough and focused in the exercises she gives and treatments she provides. She is an excellent PT for runners and for women! I highly recommend her!

Experiencia fantástica: Functional Phyzio is the best! Dr. Norah and her team are so caring, and actually listen to what your goals for recovery are. She will help develop a plan specifically for you, and make sure you continue to move in the right direction. I have worked with a lot of physical therapists in the past, and honestly I would not go anywhere else but here.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Norah is awesome! She is truly dedicated to understanding the why behind your symptoms and ensuring you resolve the root cause! She really care about her patients and provided custom treatment plans to get you back to moving without pain!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah and her team were absolutely amazing! They made me very comfortable and helped me so much after my knee surgery. Would come back again!

Experiencia fantástica: I loved working with Dr. Norah!! She helped me with my prolapse and I made big improvements fast! She was such an encouragement all along the way! -M Bryant

Experiencia fantástica: I came to Functional Phyzio in search of a solution to a sudden and excruciating pain in my left knee. I was able to set up an appointment with Jon very quickly! The space is ultra clean and equipped with exercise machines, kettle bells, dumbbells, resistance bands, mats, barbells, and a rack. There are beautiful anatomy posters on the wall that provide visual references for whichever part of the body is being discussed. Jon was incredibly professional and engaged right from the start. He had several theories about the cause of my knee pain, and we made a plan for how we would investigate the problem and start to solve it. A few weeks later, we not only figured out what had likely led to the knee pain, but we were starting to reduce the pain through a variety of exercises and stretches. Jon was very receptive to my feedback about which exercises/stretches helped the pain and which made it worse, and he was always willing to make adjustments to my program. Once the pain had gone way down a few weeks later, we worked on learning new movement patterns and strengthening my left leg to help prevent future injuries. A month and half or so after I started meeting with Jon, I was pain free, squatting normally again in my powerlifting class, and armed with new movement patterns and cues to keep in mind while in the gym. This is the most balanced my body has ever felt, and the journey has only begun. We've worked on the muscles that need to be engaged while deadlifting, and we are now starting to diagnose some weakness that I have on my left side while bench pressing. I have no doubt that PT with Jon will make me a better lifter and reduce the likelihood that I will have to sit out of the gym with chronic injuries. This has been a great investment in my health and longevity as an athlete. Whether you are dealing with an injury, want to prevent future injuries, or are just interested in moving better, Functional Phyzio is the place to be!!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a wonderful experience working with Norah after the birth of my first son. She was very knowledgable in helping to strengthen my pelvic core and gave me exercises to reduce my pain and discomfort. I would highly recommend visiting with her if you are a new mom!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Norah and her staff are fantastic. I feel I was able to get my needs met for the pain I was experiencing. Staff are professional, personable, knowledgeable and overall provide exceptional service. Will definitely return for periodic checkups.

Experiencia fantástica: I’m a trail ultra runner, and I came to Functional Phyzio with nagging knee pain. I was panicking because I had a race coming up that I was training for and was worried that I would have to pull out. My first visit with Norah helped ease that anxiety and we came up with a plan so that I could still train and also continue to heal and get stronger. I love that each appointment is a whole hour. I continued to see Norah over a few months and during that time Jon started seeing patients too. He is also great! Both of them are kind and knowledgeable. I’m happy to say I was able to start and finish the 100 miler I was signed up for. This is a great place for athletes that want to get better but don’t want to be told to “just stop” (unless of course it’s actually serious).

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Norah and her team are the best! I came to her with what I thought was pelvic floor issues. She used a holistic approach to find out I was misdiagnosed for over twenty years! She not only worked with me during appointments together, but gave me so many tools and techniques to continue on my own. Was hesitant at first because of pricing, but would do it 1000 times over. So worth it and I’m forever grateful. Thank you Functional Phyzio!

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent team of well trained, competent, and amazing PTs! I wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend functional phyzio for anyone who is active and wants to overcome and prevent injuries. All of the staff is welcoming and really take the time to listen to you and address all your concerns.

Experiencia fantástica: Norah was great to work with. She helped solve my issue and got me back on track!

Experiencia fantástica: Functional Phyzio has an exceptional staff. They are incredibly helpful and kind. I can’t recommend a better group of PT’s in the Durham area.

Experiencia negativa: During my visit I believe I sustained a partial hamstring tear. Rather than providing guidance on strategies to minimize further muscle damage, their focus seemed to be on selling me a package deal. I really wanted to support an independent business but I don't feel they have the expertise I want in providers.

Experiencia fantástica: Norah is very responsive to her patients needs. She has helped me with maintenance work to feel my best for a competition, identify movement deficiencies, and develop a plan to help me come back from an injury.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Norah is awesome! She is extremely thorough and enjoyable to work with. If you’re an active adult in the Triangle trying to get over an injury, I would highly recommend Functional Physio!

Experiencia fantástica: Functional Phyzio is better than any other traditional PT clinic that I have been to. The one-on-one appointments allowed me to receive more efficient and personalized care. The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. Dr. Norah was fantastic! She was very thorough and performed a full body assessment to know exactly what was going on. The best care I’ve received!

Experiencia fantástica: A year ago I had a slight shoulder problem and had bad knees( due to previous injury) my wife gave me encouragement to go to a PT to see if they could help out with my injuries/ problem. I looked at several different PTs in the area and I chose Functional Physio primarily due to the testimonials on their website and the fact that they were affordable for me since I didn’t have insurance at the time. My initial plan was just to go for a couple of sessions and then quit and do exercises that were given on my own but they impressed me a lot after going through the initial assessment and then putting together a plan to help me achieve my overall fitness goals that went beyond overcoming the injuries so I decided that I would keep going until I achieved my overall goals! Session after session I was able to see more progress in my day to day life especially with my knee and was able to get a lot closer to my overall goal of being able to move they way I use to before my injuries in basketball. They are super helpful and made/make me feel like they truly care about me and my fitness/health goals!! Just when I was gaining more strength in my knee and getting closer to my goals I got injured on an obstacle course(this March). After it happened I got X-rays and an MRI done and was devastated that I had tore my ACL. I called Functional Physio to give them an update that I was injured and what had been said in the MRI, during the call they showed compassion and wanted to be of as much help as possible and asked if I could send them the doctors report to put on file so they could look at it and see what they could do to help. The next day the PT(Norah) that I had been working with called me and we discussed plans going forward and sent me good exercise videos that would help my leg get stronger before going to surgery. I’ve been back in since the injury and both Norah and Jon have been super helpful and encouraging and have given me great exercises to help me get back on track to the point that my doctor (who will be doing my ACL surgery) was impressed on how much progress I’ve made with my leg since March!! I will always recommend to people who are looking for Physical Therapists that truly care about your goals to go to Functional Physio!!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to Norah pre- and postpartum. I highly recommend pelvic floor and general physical therapy throughout and after pregnancy. Having a baby is a huge change to your body. Being able to work on certain muscle group to aid in child birth and ensure I didn’t lose a lot of muscle during pregnancy was great. Also, I was able to have Norah help with pelvic floor concerns. She is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I feel like my postpartum recovery has gone really well. I’m able to get back to rock climbing and lifting and Norah has helped me work on so much. Again, I highly recommend PT pre and postpartum. If there is anything that you want to do as a mom to take care of yourself, this is it! And you are in great hands with Norah!

Experiencia fantástica: So thorough and helpful and friendly! Would highly recommend Norah and her team!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah and her team are the best of the best. I can’t imagine another group caring for my health and improvement like them. 5 stars and more!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah is an amazing clinician and human! She takes the time to truly figure out the root cause of your issue with evidence based practices and I highly recommend her and her team for all Physical Therapy needs!

Experiencia fantástica: Functional Phyzio and Performance Therapy does it all. If you have goals you want to achieve they can help you address any nagging pain or symptoms and help promote long term health and mobility. Whether you have pelvic floor symptoms or wanting to reach your peak health training for a race or competition, their expert treatments are exceptional and will help you feel awesome!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Norah is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to movement and your body! If you are looking for someone to encourage an active lifestyle, find the root cause of your issues, and provide you with tools to properly move and reduce injury, then you’ve found your place!

Experiencia fantástica: Having individual care where you’re not just a number is so important when trying to recover from an injury and get back to doing the things you love. You can really tell Norah loves what she does and cares about getting you back to what you love. Thankful for the outstanding care I received!

Experiencia fantástica: Functional Phyzio is THE place to go in Durham for top notch physical therapy. Norah and Jon are incredibly caring and awesome at what they do. If you're active and want a physical therapist who's going to help get you all the way back to where you want to be instead of just giving you low level, cookie cutter exercises, this is your clinic!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah at Phyzio is a pro. Helping me figure out how to manage my IT band flare up issues before I move to Denver, so when the Colorado outdoors beckon me I will be able to answer with an outdoor run. Great facilities at Phyzio and they are proving to have the expertise to respond to my physical challenges. #grateful

Experiencia fantástica: Functional Phyzio has been a great experience for me. Norah is thoughtful, thorough, and incredibly knowledgeable. She designed a great program for me to begin competitive running after a hamstring tear years prior. Sessions are organized and focus on the biggest issues, while providing me with a detailed at-home program to work through as well. We’ve used multiple modalities as well such as deep stim and dry needling which have been helpful as well. If youre looking to get active and feel like something’s holding you back, Norah and Functional Phyzio is a top notch place to start!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah and the team at Functional Phyzio are so great at getting people back to 100% and beyond! If you like to workout, go for a run, or just generally be active, this is the place to go! And if you're a woman, especially a mom, dealing with pelvic floor issues, then their expertise is going to be a huge help in feeling more confident again.

Experiencia fantástica: The team at Functional Phyzio is fantastic. From the moment you walk in the door, you can tell each person on the team genuinely loves what they do. I’ve always received excellent care and everything is explained fully. I have had therapy at clinics which my insurance paid for, but have always been frustrated that some third party (insurance company reviewers) decides what treatment I can get. It is so much better at Functional Phyzio. You and your PT decide on your treatment. If you want to feel better, go to Functional Phyzio.

Experiencia fantástica: Norah is an incredible physical therapist! She is intentional with her time and care. She is dedicated to the patient and their goals. And she is an encouragement through the whole recovery process. I am confident in her as she helps me to be confident in myself!

Experiencia fantástica: The team at Functional Phyzio PT were amazing! Helped me stay injury free while I trained for my run and did a really great job explaining all the movements and giving me a weekly plan to stay ahead of the curve. Highly recommend for those who are serious about their athletic performance especially all you runners out there!

Experiencia fantástica: To put it in simple terms, Norah is the best at what she does. For context, I have had multiple knee surgeries on both knees after tearing multiple ligaments. Although I am a young man, after my most recent surgery I struggled to regain my strength and get back to my engineering job where I am often lifting cases and lugging around heavy gear on my feet. It was particularly difficult because I had been given a quick and painless recovery outlook from my doctor, which did not seem to be the case. I found Norah after a referral from a family member, and they highly recommended I give her a try. Yes, it is more expensive than others, but she is 1000% worth it. A 1-hour block of 1-on-1 training was completely new to me as every other clinic I tried had multiple patients at the same time, and never had time to take care of the young guy amongst the older crowd. She was very attentive to my concerns, and addressed them immediately. She also addressed other problems as I was still gaining strength and noticing weaknesses in other areas. On top of that, she is very creative at giving exercises to help with seemingly any situation that I could come up with. All in all, a great experience, and I will certainly return if I have any issues going forward.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a wonderful experience working with Norah at Functional Phyzio! I had previously worked with multiple PTs to try and correct hamstring pain from running, but had never been able to shake the pain. Norah taught me so much about my core and my posture and my movement patterns. After working with Norah I am finally running and strength training pain free! I also feel confident that I now have the knowledge and tools to remain pain free!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah is the best! I could not recommend her more strongly--especially for marathon runners trying to get through high mileage training. I have come to Norah with various aches and pains during marathon training (even right before marathons) over the years and she has worked with me to make sure I can stay healthy while maintaining my fitness. She really works with you to make sure you can achieve your goals while making sure you're doing it safely!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah is an exceptional professional in her field. As her patient for several years, I can confidently say that her expertise and guidance have significantly improved my physical condition. With her targeted training and muscle strengthening exercise routines, I have achieved better sports performance and an overall enhanced quality of life. I can attest to Norah's unparalleled skills and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking the best care.

Experiencia fantástica: Doc Norah is awesome!!! I was dealing with a lot of nagging injuries for my time in the service and from functional fitness training. Really helped me understand how to take better care of my body. I highly recommend Functional Phyzio!!

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend Functional Phyzio if you’re dealing with any kind of pain or simply want to improve your performance in running, lifting weights, sports, etc. I came to Functional Phyzio to get some help with knee pain I’d been experiencing during and after exercise, and now am not only pain free but feel much more confident in my form for lifting and running. I have worked with both Josh and Norah and they are both friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly care about helping their clients.

Experiencia fantástica: Norah was extremely helpful with pelvic floor therapy after I had my second c-section. She was able to work with me and provide me with workouts to do at home to help build my strength back.

Experiencia fantástica: Highly recommend Functional Phyzio. One on one appoinments are hard to come by these days and makes a big difference in treatment outcomes, in my opinion. I appreciate the time Norah took to diagnose my injury and come up with a plan that was specifically tailored to my individual needs. Great experience!

Experiencia fantástica: Functional Phyzio is an excellent place to go! I'm a physical therapist and business owner and need to know who is great for my patients to see if they are relocating or traveling. The team here is great! They will actually listen to you, figure out the root cause of your pain or dysfunction and create a plan of action to get the results you're looking for. They work with active adults and also provide pelvic floor physical therapy services, which are much needed! They aren't like your typical clinic where you are in and out or even handed off to other providers constantly. They provide individualized treatments tailored to your goals and needs. Go see Functional Phyzio if you're in the Durham area! Don't wait any longer.

Experiencia fantástica: What else is there to say about Norah other than she's amazing! If you want a PT experience with skilled clinicians and excellent customer service then look no further. If you're looking to find the root cause of your issue and work hard to get not only back to your prior level but beyond, this is the place, hands down.

Experiencia fantástica: I had the best experience with Dr. Norah. I engaged her for pelvic floor therapy while pregnant to prepare for birth, and I also had many sessions in the months following birth to aid in my recovery. She helped me prepare to push and learn what muscles to engage, and my birth went smoothly, which I credit largely to her! She also helped me recover fully and gave me lots of great tips and exercises to ensure my pelvic floor regained its strength but also wasn’t overly tight. I highly recommend her to any pregnant or postpartum women looking for pelvic floor physical therapy!

Experiencia fantástica: Nora is incredibly knowledgable and compassionate.

Experiencia fantástica: Absolutely recommend Dr Norah!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah is very compassionate! I had a good experience. Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah was great! She listened to my concerns and provided a great PT regimen to meet my needs!

Experiencia fantástica: I met Dr. Norah Whitten when she was giving a workshop. I liked her empathy coupled with a very practical approach to the issue I was having. When I learned her practice is rooted in not only restoring capability, but enhancing athletic performance. I knew that I'd found the right physical therapist.

Experiencia fantástica: I came postpartum to solve a variety of issues. With the help of Dr.Norah and with a little effort at home we could solve most of it. The atmosphere and staff in the office are very friendly and welcoming. I Always feel comfortable to come. Also very thankful to all the informative emails that Dr.Norah sends.

Experiencia fantástica: I was having major discomfort in my knee and had to side-step each stair, one by one, to walk up a single flight of stairs. My knee cap was clicking and moving each time I climbed the stairs. By the time I reached the top, I was in tears because of the excruciating pain in my knee. After weeks of tolerating the pain, I finally made an appt. with an orthopedic specialist. One of my diagnosis was osteoarthritis. Coupled with damaged or missing knee cartilage, I was prescribed a 30-day supply of Meloxicam (muscle relaxer/anti-flammatory) to manage my pain, and to research knee exercises online. My follow-up option was to return if Meloxicam didn’t work for a cortisone shot as a long-term fix to manage the pain. The next day, I mentioned my knee issue and diagnosis to my neighbor who recommended Functional Phyzio & Performance so I scheduled a visit with Dr. Nora Whitten. This was one of the best decisions I had ever made! From the initial visit through the last, I felt that Dr. Nora truly cared about my knee issue! She gave me several walking exercises and documented every noise, angle and movement of my knee while walking to get a full understanding of my condition. Her prescription was a series of knee strengthening techniques and exercises with repeated reps, not available online. Each week she tracked my progress and added more techniques until I was able to walk up and down the stairs without any pain. I am grateful to our Heavenly Father for Dr. Nora and the staff at Functional Phyzio! She was a Godsend and the staff is also amazing! I can honestly say that I no longer side-step up and down the stairs and have no more pain or tears! Dr. Nora, I am forever grateful! Thank you for truly caring about your patients and providing quality and wholistic medical care! And, thank you for offering a network of professional teams that offer other services (e.g., Fit Over 40) to further improve our quality of life without unnecessary medicine! A sincere, heartfelt THANK YOU from me and my family. You and the staff at Functional Phyzio are true gems of healthcare. God bless you all!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah is the best! As a guy, I was super nervous when I started to feel pain in my pelvic floor. Norah’s assessment gave me peace of mind and her program was able to nix the issue quickly. If you’re considering reaching out, DO IT!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Norah was able to figure out what was wrong and what we needed to do to fix it in a way that all the other doctors and PTs I've tried before haven't been able to do. Within a couple sessions I was seeing improvements and within six sessions no pain at all! I was hesitant at first because she's out of network but I'm glad I took the leap! She was able to work on things unrelated to my main concern during the sessions and spend an entire hour with me. Highly recommend if you have a concern or pain no other specialist has been able to fully address!

Experiencia fantástica: I started seeing Doctor Norah about 8 months ago after dealing with pelvic floor issues for 3 years and seeing different types of doctors and therapists. Norah has used a truly holistic approach to help me recover. She has prescribed exercises with focused precision to work on global issues affecting my body that contributed to the pelvic floor dysfunction as well as conducted specific treatments directly impacting the pelvic floor and hip region. Besides helping me to heal, Norah has also taught me how to use various types of exercises and self-treatment methods to deal with any flare ups I may have. Having these tools has empowered me to start exercising again without the fear of hurting myself. As a life-long athlete and martial artist for almost 40 years, I feel more resilient now than I have in a long time and I am ready to train harder but smarter than I ever have before. Thank you Doctor Norah!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah Whitten and Functional Phyzio and Performance Therapy have been instrumental in my pregnancy journey! The one-hour appointments and Norah's skilled, personalized approach helped me to run and stay strong and active throughout pregnancy. I learned more from Norah in navigating pregnancy and preparing for labor than I did anywhere else. I will surely continue to see Functional Phyzio postpartum and in returning to sport in the months and years to come!

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend Functional Phyzio for physical therapy! It’s perfect for active people who want to stay active. Dr. Josh and Dr. Nora started with a thorough evaluation of my shoulder. The goals we set that first day were very accurate…within just a few visits I was able to build the stability and strength needed for my workouts.

Experiencia fantástica: Norah was the perfect PT to help me get back to playing ultimate frisbee. She put so much thought and intentionality into what I needed, listened super well, and I truly trusted her guidance. I had a complicated injury but she made me feel like there was hope and after a little bit, I noticed tangible results. Id recommend her to athletes trying to recover from a complicated injury any day. She's great!

Experiencia fantástica: I would call Norah and Josh miracle workers. I was experiencing pain in my left knee when running, and was told by my primary care physician I should stop running. I met with Norah and Josh and they changed my running form and helped me strengthen my quads and hamstrings. They also did dry needling which helped get rid of the pain. I found immediate relief and after a few visits and the pain has gone away. They also helped me with my flexibility and stretching. I enjoy going to visit them. They are very professional, friendly, and experts at what they do. I highly recommend you going to see them.

Experiencia fantástica: I started working with Functional Phyzio after experiencing significant pain that was affecting my ability to do everyday activities. Over multiple months, Norah has helped treat the acute pain, worked with me on preventive measures, and helped me return to exercise without pain. She has taken a whole body approach to addressing issues and helping me get stronger, which has been so helpful (as opposed to concentrating on one body part in isolation). Norah listens closely to concerns and provides a highly individualized experience. The exercises and work we’ve done have helped increase strength and mobility in ways that will benefit me for years to come.

Experiencia fantástica: Norah and her team are wonderful!

Experiencia fantástica: I am having a great experience at Functional Phyzio. Dr. Whitten is kind, caring, and great at her job. The staff create a warm and safe environment and I'm seeing positive results.

Experiencia fantástica: Norah really knows what she’s doing! After tearing my miniscus, I started working with Norah and she not only treated the acute issue, but helped me to develop the surrounding muscle and learn better form to prevent similar injuries from recurring. After 6 mths I had full mobility and was pain free!

Experiencia fantástica: Before starting PT I was scared that I would injure myself if I tried to perform core workouts. Functional Phyzio helped me regain the confidence I needed to begin working out. Dr. Norah and her team are so kind and encouraging, I will definitely be seeing them again when PT needs arise!

Experiencia fantástica: I've been very impressed with Dr. Norah! She helped with the problem I had and has also been helping with preventative strengthening. It's a frighteningly simple idea that I can learn how to lift and move beforehand, rather than having to wait to get an injury!! Also, I really respect that Dr. Norah cites her sources and they're from peer-reviewed sites (lots of NIH) for her newsletter articles!

Experiencia fantástica: My shoulder had been bothering me for months. I had tried other options but it never got any better. I finally started meeting with Norah and she gave me great exercises and did dry needling. It took some time and dedication to the exercises, but I'm feeling great now! Thanks Norah!

Experiencia fantástica: This is the best place to treat your pain, teach you how to properly enjoy your activity and reduce risk of injury, and support you on a path to a healthy lifestyle!!! It has been such a great experience for me. Norah's diagnostic skills are above any PT who has provided care to me. If you want to make progress on pelvic health, mobility, injury reduction, or advice of how to leave a healthy pain free lifestyle GO TO FUNCTIONAL PHYZIO!!!

Experiencia fantástica: The best PT experience I’ve had.

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional and friendly - great to work with!

Experiencia fantástica: I saw Dr.Norah for pelvic floor work due to issues I was having when running and working out. She was super comprehensive and did so much more than just tell me exercises to do at home. She helped me change my running pattern, and also made notable changes through dry needling and other exercises. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience. Norah was professional, effective, and really listened to what I wanted out of my sessions.

Experiencia fantástica: Norah is great! This is the 3rd PT place I’ve been to and by far the most helpful for pain recovery and getting in proper shape for lifting weights again. Dry needling in particular is very helpful.

Experiencia fantástica: Started seeing Rachel after having my third child and she has been amazing. She gives me workouts that easily work into my schedule. I have been so pleased with the results and feel confident about getting back into my own activities.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. JJ is phenomenal!!! I have so appreciated her help with my hip issue! I am still running :)

Experiencia fantástica: Best decision I have made in a very long time. JJ has guided me in transforming the way I train, enabling me to reach a higher level of performance in my raquet sports with less soreness afterwards. I highly recommend anyone who is serious about taking care of their body see one of the great PTs at functional phyzio.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent service from beginning to end, from Dr. Norah. Would highly recommend especially if you're having pain in your hips, and would like that specialized attention and flexible schedule. The dry needling was a plus!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah is fantastic! Extremely knowledgeable, professional, kind and easy to work with! I’m so glad my husband came across an ad for her.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a wonderful experience! Dr. Norah did my initial evaluation and Rachel did my treatment. I was given lots of things to do to help my diastasis recti after two pregnancies. Rachel really was a great problem solver and encouraged me to listen to my body as she gave me different things to do and try. I made great progress! I will absolutely be returning here if and when I have future PT needs!

Experiencia fantástica: Having had mediocre experiences in physical therapy before, I was amazed by the level of care I received here. Dr. Norah is great - she's super patient and great at explaining things. We were able to work on specific concerns and I walked away with a lot more confidence continuing my workouts. If you're looking for a physical therapist, don't hesitate - go here.

Experiencia fantástica: Before coming to Functional Phyzio and Performance Therapy in Durham I was having issues with my knees. I had pain when walking and was worried that I would make them worse if I just moved slightly 'wrong.' After starting working with Dr. Rachel, I felt more confident in my everyday life and no longer had fear of falling or hurting myself. She has helped me re-teach my body how to support itself correctly and made me aware of how to correct my form when doing even simple exercises. I highly recommend working with the doctors to get back your confidence in doing everyday tasks and getting back into the gym without pain.

Experiencia fantástica: I was very interested in working with a woman led PT business and I found them! It has been an amazing experience. Although I've been pushed physically, the accountability partner that I've had with Rachel has been instrumental. I can literally hear her correct me when I'm attempting to lift heavy things at home. Between the exercises, the massages, the dry needling and stretching - if I ever need PT again, I'm coming back here!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Norah is very knowledgeable, with excellent skills in terms of evaluating and treating musculoskeletal disorders. I came in for the Menopausal Evaluation but we ended up focusing more on a chronic running injury. She prescribed great exercises and was very focused on technique. I highly recommend her! My recovery will be an extended one, I know. But I have a start!

Experiencia fantástica: Rachel’s kind care and support helped me tremendously!

Experiencia fantástica: Norah at Functional Phyzio is the first physical therapist I have had that was able to help me get big results! And I have been in pt many times! Honestly, I wish I had found her in the first place! Norah is wonderful at everything, massage, therapy, and personal training, all of it. She gives you a whole hour one on one, and accomplishes so much!

Experiencia fantástica: 10/10 WORTH EVERY PENNY. I said this is life changing because it is. I went in for knee pain-had been “dealing with it” for a couple years- and have been pain free with most exercises since I started this program with Rachel. If you’re even slightly on the fence about starting Physical Therapy, just do it now you won’t regret it, because it has changed my life. I wish I would have started sooner!

Experiencia fantástica: Rachel is fabulous! Helped me relearn how to use my body and alleviate some chronic lower back pain.

Experiencia fantástica: Norah is very professional and managed to address issues that I’ve dealt with for years. I would recommend her business to anyone.

Experiencia fantástica: This is the best PT I have seen. She truly listens to all of your concerns and explains them in terms you can understand. She will address any problems you may be having even if they aren't the original ones you came in for. I like how you are working directly with the DPT instead of an assistant.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been working with Norah for about 7 to 8 years I guess. Until now, as my physical therapist. I had seen many PTs before for my recurrent lower back spasms. I have been now completely free of them for 6 years and I credit Norah 100% for finding the exercises to target my weaknesses and designing a PT program that was doable and effective. She also helped me resolve some long-standing shoulder issues. Now I have switched to having her as a personal trainer, since I don't seem to need her PT services anymore, and already I can feel the changes in my energy and my body. 100% recommended.

Experiencia fantástica: I saw Rachel at this clinic and she was excellent. She was knowledgeable, professional, personable, and kind. I would absolutely go to her for PT again in the future!

Experiencia fantástica: I started going to PT with Norah a few months after having my first baby. She helped tremendously with my prolapse and other postpartum issues. I'm so glad I decided to go to Norah for help! She helped with my pelvic floor, abs, tension in my neck and jaw, and even with an old achilles injury. I highly recommend Norah and Functional Phyzio!
