"In
2002, I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis, and after some initial
physical therapy which did not help (from another therapist), was put
on a regimen of Celebrex which abated the pain. The pain stopped in
2004 and I stopped taking Celebrex. In October, 2005, after a long
airline flight, the same pain returned (a deep aching pain in my right
shoulder blade). After consulting with my doctor, I was referred to
Jeff Robinson to help me handle a pinched nerve between my C4 and C5
vertebrae. After two sessions, the pain was gone. In follow up
sessions, Jeff showed me how to properly stretch and to keep the
pinched nerve from not returning. Best of all, it's a good feeling to
have total trust in the competency and professionalism of your medical
provider which I have in Jeff Robinson."

"I
trust Jeff more than any doctor. Jeff pulled me out of an erratic and
protracted recovery from two concurrent, but independent maladies,
which had set me back from an active athletic life for more than three
years. He actually diagnosed one of the maladies before the doctors
did. I finally regained the active use of my body with him at my side."
"Jeff listens very hard but sensitively, visibly concentrates on you,
and processes every input you give him. Now that I can run, row, ride,
and workout on my own, I will miss him, but will continue to keep in
mind his simple and wise advice that should serve to keep me away from
him."

Jeff Robinson has been my physical therapist now for
almost three years. He was of immeasurable help to me
in regaining strength in my leg. For six years I had
not been able to recover from a knee injury that had
led to patellar tendonitis and meniscus surgery and
ultimately resulted in substantial muscle atrophy. I
had seen other physical therapists without
improvement, before I discovered Jeff and immediately
experienced a whole new level of expertise. His
analytic skills aim at a broadly based approach so
that his effective manual therapy and immaginative
exercise protocols not only involved the focus of the
problem but extended muscular reeducation to the
entire support system of the knee. Jeff shows much
kindness in his concern for the patient, and
compassionate support in the ups and downs of the
recovery process. He continues to provide care for me
now for a newly developed hip and back problem. For
all this I would like to express my heartfelt thanks.
My best recommendation probably is that recently my
husband also has become Jeff's patient for his
problems from scoliosis.

Jeff Robinson is an experienced runner (cross
country, road races,
triathalons) and a physical therapist, so he
understands runners'
injuries really well. I came in to see Jeff about a
knee problem that
my doctor diagnosed as chondromalacia or "runner's
knee". Jeff proposed
both manipulation of the joint and exercises that I
did during the
physical therapy office visits and at home. Within
about six weeks, I
was back to running pain free. What's great about
Jeff is he figures
out what exercises produce the best benefits for you
and then over time
he boils these down to a manageable set that you can
do at home to
prevent the injury from returning.
