Patient Success Spotlight

“Shortly after the holidays, I developed back pain to the point that I was unable to put on my socks! This was very disturbing since I am an active person. I started working with Chelsea in January. She was able to analyze my problem, and structure the proper therapy and home exercises that have enabled me to resume my normal life. I highly recommend Oakland Physical Therapy and Chelsea! The techs are helpful and friendly. It’s been an overall great experience.” - B. H. “An overall great experience.” Exercise Essential
