My experience with Sheldon has been fantastic. I was a week out from a major marathon and my foot and calf were really giving me some trouble. I reached out to him on a Sunday morning and he got me in that day for some dry needling and manual therapy. I want back one more time before I left for my race, and I am so grateful that I was able to run the race with no issues in my foot or calf (aside from the normal aches and pains that come with running for 26.2 miles!). I look forward to continuing to work with Sheldon moving forward!
Response from the owner · a week ago
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and for trusting me with your care, especially so close to such an important race!
I know how much time, effort, and dedication goes into preparing for a marathon, so I'm really glad we were able to address your foot and calf issues and help you get to the starting line feeling confident. Hearing that you completed all 26.2 miles without those issues holding you back is incredibly rewarding!
Congratulations on finishing your marathon! I truly appreciate your trust and commitment, and I look forward to continuing to help you stay healthy, move better, and accomplish your future running goals.
Sheldon,

Sheldon worked with me to pinpoint the areas that were causing my posture problems and hip tightness. I could feel improvement just after a few weeks and now I am moving and feeling 10 times better than when I walked in for the first time and I am able to start going back to the gym like I used to! I highly recommend Sheldon 10/10.
Response from the owner · a month ago
Thank you, Moe, for sharing your experience. We are so glad Sheldon could help pinpoint the issues and that you are feeling and moving so much better. It means a lot that you can return to the gym and that our care made a difference. We appreciate your recommendation.

I appreciate his friendly demeanor and his genuine interest in helping me achieve my posture goals. The specific exercises that he has developed for me to improve my posture have helped me immensely and I make certain to do them as frequently as possible.

Sheldon is amazing! He really helped me manage my foot/ankle issues which allowed me to complete a HYROX! And now keeping me going as I train for a half marathon. He looks at the body as a whole, not just one area which leads to actually being able to repair and prevent injuries.
Response from the owner · 2 months ago
Thank you so much Liz for your kind words and for trusting me with your care. It has been a pleasure working with you throughout your training.
Big props to completing your HYROX! I’m so glad we were able to keep your foot and ankle moving in the right direction so you could continue training and reach that goal. Now it’s exciting to be part of your journey as you prepare for your half marathon.
I truly believe that understanding how the entire body works together is the key to not only recovering from injuries but helping prevent them in the future. Thank you for your commitment to the process and for allowing me to be part of your journey.
I appreciate your support and look forward to seeing all that you accomplish next!

I highly recommend Sheldon at Human Function and Performance! After my back surgery, I knew my recovery would be a long journey, and I am incredibly grateful that he was there to guide me every step of the way. For the past several years, his expertise, patience, and genuine compassion have been instrumental in helping me regain my strength, mobility, and confidence.
From my very first appointment, Sheldon took the time to understand my unique challenges and developed a treatment plan tailored specifically to my needs. As my recovery progressed, he continually adapted my therapy to help me improve safely and effectively. His knowledge and ability to explain each step of the process gave me confidence and motivation, even on the most difficult days.
My pain has decreased significantly, my mobility has improved beyond what I ever imagined, and I have been able to return to activities I once feared I might never enjoy again. What truly sets Human Function and Performance apart is the genuine care shown to patients.
If you're looking for an exceptional physical therapist who combines outstanding clinical expertise with kindness, professionalism, and unwavering dedication, I wholeheartedly recommend Human Function and Performance. Thanks to these sessions, I have regained not only my physical strength and mobility but also the confidence to enjoy life again!
Response from the owner · 3 months ago
Thank you so much for this incredibly thoughtful review Lauren. Reading your words truly means a lot to me.
It’s been a privilege to be part of your recovery over the past several years. Recovering from back surgery is never a straight path, and you’ve shown tremendous patience, resilience, and commitment throughout the process. Those qualities have played a huge role in how far you’ve come.
One of the most rewarding parts of my job is helping people understand their bodies and creating a plan that evolves as they progress. Seeing you regain your strength, improve your mobility, and return to activities you once thought might not be possible again is exactly why I love what I do.
Thank you for trusting me throughout your journey and for allowing me to be a part of it. Your confidence in Human Function and Performance and your recommendation mean more than you know. I’m grateful for the opportunity to work with you and look forward to continuing to support you however I can.

Sheldon listens...then, based on his expertise delivers a plan that works. You will not find a smarter, more balanced, health professional in Dallas.

Thank you so much Bob for your incredibly kind words. They truly mean a lot to me.
I believe one of the most important parts of helping someone is taking the time to listen first. Every person has a unique story, goals, and challenges, and understanding those is what allows me to create a plan that’s personalized and meaningful.
I’m grateful for the trust you placed in me and honored by your recommendation. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your journey, and I look forward to continuing to support you however I can.

Dr Sheldon, Is an amazing. I went to him to reduce the built up scare tissue in my leg. With dry needles and a scraping technique my scar tissue went away completely. I’m grateful for his expertise and would highly recommend anyone and everyone to see him if you’re dealing with pain. His knowledge and holistic approach to healing the body is top tier.
Response from the owner · 3 months ago
Thank you so much Jon for your thoughtful review and for trusting me with your care. It truly means a lot.
I’m so glad we were able to help improve your mobility and address the scar tissue that had been limiting you. It’s always rewarding to see how the right combination of hands-on treatment, movement, and a personalized plan can help the body heal and restore function.
I also really appreciate your kind words about my approach. I believe the body functions as an integrated system, and looking beyond the area of pain often leads to the best long-term outcomes. Thank you for recognizing that philosophy.
I’m grateful to have been part of your recovery and appreciate your recommendation. Wishing you continued health, movement, and success, and I’m always here if you need anything in the future.

I recently visited Sheldon while having some intense hip pain. He took the time to explain everything thoroughly and even followed up with me regarding some questions I had after my visit. We went over several exercises in detail and I left not only feeling better, but also understanding WHY my body was doing reacting the way it was. I definitely will be back for some more work and would highly recommend him for anyone looking for support and solid PT.
Response from the owner · 3 months ago
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience. I truly appreciate your thoughtful review.
I’m glad we were able to not only help calm your hip pain, but also give you a better understanding of what was causing it. I believe that understanding the “why” behind your symptoms is one of the most important parts of recovery because it gives you the confidence and tools to take control of your health long after you leave the clinic.
I also appreciate you mentioning the follow-up after your visit. I want everyone I work with to know they’re supported, and I’m always happy to answer questions as they come up.
Thank you again for your trust and recommendation. It was a pleasure working with you, and I look forward to helping you continue to move, feel, and perform at your best.
