Tanya Goodrich, DPT

Can’t recommend Tanya enough!!! As an artist and second time mother I have been dealing with pain, numbness and shakiness in my hands (Repetitive Stress Injury) for five years, I thought I was never going to get better and that I would never be able to do art like I used to or care for my kids without pain. I was recommended to Tanya after not having success with another PT. Tanya was AMAZING — she knew exactly what the problem was and worked on tight areas, which gave immediate relief of my pain, numbness, and the shakiness (it was miraculous!), as well as gave me practical tips for ergonomic improvement and do-​able exercises for continual therapy at home. After her evaluation and advice, I can function normally again, the shakiness and numbness are gone, I am able to care for my kids without pain or worrying about permanent damage, and I am back to doing my art with confidence! I really can’t thank her enough for what she has done for me! I highly recommend Tanya for PT, especially those like me who are dealing with muscle/​nerve pain and for artists and mothers dealing with injuries.

Tanya is a rare gem of a PT. I have seen so many PTs over the years that take the same cookie cutter approach of «ice and stim» that I am always hesitant to see one when recommended. However my OB recommended her to treat an ab separation following my second pregnancy and I am so glad that I took this recommendation! She is a completely different kind of PT. She did a very thorough evaluation and worked with me using manual manipulation and home exercises (that, importantly, were do-​able for a new mom of two). In just a couple months, my diastasis is officially closed! I strongly recommend her to anyone dealing with pelvic, prenatal and/​or postpartum complaints.

Tanya is great! She’s not only an incredibly knowledgeable physical therapist, she is a caring and compassionate person as well. Tanya is working with me on back/​hip pain that has progressively developed over the last 10+ years. I have seen other physical therapists for this issue with little impact. I am having much better results with Tanya! With her positive, intuitive approach, I feel Tanya is providing me with a great opportunity to resolve my discomfort without having to resort to surgery. I would highly recommend Tanya. .. and I have.

Tanya is fantastic. I was referred to her by my OBGYN after I had complained about pain during intercourse, not thinking that there was really anything to be done that I wasn’t already doing.
I was wrong! Tanya knew exactly what was going on, and helped me immediately isolate and then work on the areas that were causing me pain. She gave me a series of specific physical therapy exercises that started working in days, and only a few months later I am now pain free. I can hardly believe it.
She was so easy to work with and she really explained what was happening and how we could go about making it better. I cannot recommend her enough!

I was referred to Tanya by my Obstetrician for a post 3^rd baby diastisis recti or abdominal muscle separation. Tanya was terrific and helped me with exercises to just about close the muscles with proper positioning and exercise. She is a mom herself and understands women. Very personable and motivating and positive — exactly the kind of person one needs to coach them back into good health.

Tanya is such an amazing physical therapist, that I don’t have enough superlatives to describe her. I only wish I had gone to her sooner. She has been helping me fix long term back issues. When I walk out of her clinic, it’s like I’m in a new body. You are a partner in the work though, so keeping up with your exercises is your responsibility, and the results are great. And she’s very bubbly and energetic, which makes me look forward to visits. She doesn’t take insurance, but you can file claims yourself and hopefully get reimbursed.

I credit Tanya with helping me survive my pregnancy! I was fighting back tears when I first contacted her. I was in so much pain and no one seemed able to help me. Everyone just wrote it off as standard pregnancy pains, miserable but unavoidable. But I could tell it was something unusual. Tanya made me feel very comfortable (which is super important when you are trying to open up to a stranger about your particular brand of pelvic pain hell). She studied my posture while standing and walking and gave me very specific things to practice in order to correct my balance and lessen the pain. She’s also very energetic and approachable. Before I saw her I thought I would have to stop working early, but she gave me the tools to be able to work until a month before I was due. Now I have a healthy baby girl! I highly recommend her to anyone battling pelvic pain during pregnancy. There is hope!

Loved Tanya’s determination! She successfully fixed my post pregnancy issues. As for long term maintenance, she taught me physical and mental exercises. Tanya is great with people (especially my 6 month baby) and she made me feel comfortable during each session. If and when I’m pregnant again, I plan on going back to see her.

I started seeing Tanya mid way through my pregnancy due to pregnancy related pelvic pain. She provided relief not only for the PSD but also for other pains that arose. She has an amazing ability to find pain points and work through them. She also has great recommendations for appropriate exercises. I’ve continued to see her post delivery to help tune up my body as well as work on scar healing from my c-​section. I highly recommend Tanya not only because of her PT skills but also for her friendly demeanor. I always look forward to my visits :)

Tanya helped me get rid of severe low back pain within a few months from pregnancy and delivery. I highly recommend her as someone who is knowledgable on what the body goes through in labor and how to improve strength and flexibility. She was intuitive in finding the pain points to work in ways that made me more comfortable. Tanya sped up the recovery time by providing me with home exercises, equipment and advice. She was not in my insurance network but worth every penny.

Dr Tanya is amazing. I heard of her magic hands and elbows from another doctor whose wife started seeing Dr Tanya after giving birth. I’ve always had hip, knee, and back pain, and have seen many many many PTs over the years. Dr Tanya is the first professional I’ve seen who makes adjustments, tells me what exercises to do to get the adjustments to take more permanently, and consistently reduces my pain. I love how Dr Tanya clearly explains what she’ll be doing, and the how’s and why’s of what she does. I’ve been seeing her for a few months now and am progressively improving.

Tanya is absolutely the best PT I have ever seen, she is very knowlegeable and figured out very quickly what was wrong with my back/​hip and fixed it in just a few sessions. I love the fact that she spends the hour working on you unlike many PT’s who give you lots of exercices that really don’t fix much. I am 30 weeks pregnant and she has been a lifesaver for me, she is very gentle with pregnant women yet very efficient in working on your muscles to release the pain. I had many episodes of my hip getting locked in and after seeing you for 2 – 3 sessions, I didn’t have them anymore. I wish she was working on Saturdays so I could see her more often. I highly recommend her!

«Tanya is amazing! I am 34 weeks pregnant and got horrible sciatic pain from a bad massage. The pain was so excruciating that I could barely lift my toddler or perform daily tasks, thanks to two quick sessions with Tanya, I was able to move and go about my daily basis. Within a couple of days, the pain was completely gone and I was cured! If this should ever happen again, I would not hesitate to come to her sooner because she obviously is super knowledgeable and knows exactly what she is doing! Sweet, smart, prompt & an incredible friendly demeanor, Tanya is exceptional!»

I have been going to Tanya for three years for massages. One might think that getting your massage from a Ph. D physical therapist is unnecessary, but if you want or need, as in my case, someone who truly knows what they are doing –she is the masseuse for you. She consults with my healing yoga teacher so after each session I come away with updated exercises and/​or
Asanas adapted to my evolving needs. This chassis is aging and it needs a monthly tune-​up for optimum performance. Thank you Tanya!

Tanya is truly the best of the best at what she does. I have a chronic cough from cystic fibrosis, and I have had two babies. Because of this, I have dealt with moderate urinary stress incontinence for more than 10 years. Everyone I’ve ever seen for this problem has given me the standard, blanket advice and I have worked hard with zero results. Tanya was the first person to address my whole being, instead of simply telling me to kegel and be on my way. For example, she discovered, unbeknownst to me, that I have a small diastasis recti from my second pregnancy and helped educate me on how to heal that and build strength in my abdominal wall in order to lay the foundation and provide support for a strong pelvic floor. This, amongst other work we have done together, has given me results for the first time.
Tanya always takes the time to listen and ask the right questions. I never feel rushed or hurried with her, but I also feel that she maximizes her time with me. Of course this issue can be awkward and embarrassing, but Tanya is a professional, caring, and will always treat you like a person rather than a problem to be fixed. She’s a healer, and yes, she has a PhD. I very highly recommend her!
