I thought I reviewed BodyMechanics already but realized I did not! I started coming here for advice and support for various problems from small/large and a post surgery recovery plan. Jenna, Gabby, Elizabeth, and Lorinda have all helped me and are very competent PTs who are able to help you overcome your challenges! Thanks for all your help!

I was having terrible pain in my arthritic left knee. Working with Gabby was a wonderful experience. I am now able to walk greater distances and climb stairs more easily. The exercises she gave me are easy to do at home and have helped tremendously.

Gabby Newton did an incredible job helping me recover from a calf tear. She was professional, extremely knowledgeable, and took the time to look into the injury and potential underlying movement patterns.
The exercises she assigned immediately led to a steady improvement, and the dry-needling helped too. I’ve been recommending her to everyone.
I had such a great experience with Body Mechanics, especially working with Jenna. She was incredibly thorough, always answered all of my questions, and was very responsive throughout my treatment.
I came in with a persistent ankle injury and my goal was to be able to finish a sprint triathlon. Jenna really took the time to understand what was going on and, rather than simply telling me to stay off my ankle, she looked at the bigger picture and addressed the root cause. Turns out, the problem was actually coming from my hips!
I also really appreciated how hands-on Jenna was. She used massage and dry needling when appropriate, along with targeted exercises and treatment to address the underlying issue. I always felt like there was a purpose behind what we were doing and that we were working toward my specific goal.
Thanks to Jenna, I was able to finish my sprint triathlon, and I’m so grateful for the care and expertise she provided along the way. I would absolutely recommend Body Mechanics and Jenna to anyone looking for a thoughtful, thorough, and goal-oriented physical therapist!

Matt at Body Mechanics PT was an unexpected but vital part of my knee replacement recovery. My doctors PT and I picked Body Mechanics based on high reviews. I'm so glad. Matt shared that every patient progresses differently, helping me reset expectations. He was gentle and very knowledgeable. We slowed down and sped up PT based on my busy schedule and levels of pain and post PT response. I highly recommend them. Karen

I can’t say enough positive things about my experience here, especially working with Gabby. After my meniscectomy, and previous PT elsewhere that was not tailored to me, I lost hope in ever being able to walk again. Gabby completely changed that.
She listened, understood my unique needs and goals, explained things so clearly, thoughtfully individualized every exercise and progression, and encouraged me every step of the way.
Because of her expertise and compassion, I can now do things I hadn’t been able to do in over three years—walk pain-free, stand on one leg, jog after 7-year old, fully participate in kickboxing classes, and even do single-leg RDLs. These “little things” feel life-changing, and I will never take them for granted again.
I highy recommend Gabby and this clinic to anyone who needs PT!

Wow, Sara, such great news! We so appreciate your review and keep those RDLs going!

Had a great experience here working with Gabby! Helped me understand what was going on, provided valuable exercises and stretches, and got me back to running after knee pain. Very friendly and kind. I've avoided PT in the past feeling insecure about my body/ability, but this was a calm, safe environment, and I never felt judged. Highly recommend!

Thanks for the review, Genevieve! You found an excellent PT in Gabby to help you get back on track.

Gabby at Body Mechanics assisted me with PT. She listened to my concerns and then developed a comprehensive plan that really helped me. She provided exercises that moved along my recovery and adjusted exercises based on my feedback. I will go back to Body Mechanics for any future PT needs.
