Symmetry Physical Therapy

After breaking my heel bone, along with severe soft tissue damage and bone bruises, I went to 4 different orthopedists who said they didn’t know how to help me. They told me to go to physical therapy to see if that helped. I was going to one physical therapy office simply because it was close to my house until a friend said that she saw I wasn’t getting any better and she recommended Symmetry Physical Therapy. I was amazed after my first visit there! I was treated in a private room instead of just being on a bed with several other people being worked one giant room at the same time. Dr. Natalie carefully listened to what I had to say and then started to work. She knew that a foot injury impacts your entire body so she was treating all of me instead of just a part of me, unlike the other office I had been going to. The session was also an individual hour long appointment. Again this was unlike what I had been where the appointment was a half hour with the therapist and then the remaining time with an assistant doing exercises. I alternate between seeing Dr. Natalie and Dr. Auguis and I am very well cared for. Not only do they both have magical hands, but are very intuitive, knowledgeable and caring. They are responsible for me walking again and I am forever greatful. I also take their Pilates classes, which has also been a very positive experience. Both Dr. Natalie and Dr. Krista work with my Pilates instructor tailoring a program for me and what is best for my body. I can’t recommend a more positive experience than Symmetry Physical Therapy.

It’s been about two years since I first took Pilates classes here. They are consistently great. Caring instructors. Helpful office staff. Clean equipment. I highly recommend the physical therapists as well as the classes.

I’ve tried several physical therapists since 2007 for relief of chronic lower back issues (degenerative disks, herniations and arthritis) and none, I repeat, none can compare to Dr. Natalie (U.S.C.) and her fellow therapists at Symmetry for providing me with the relief I seek.
Patients are treated in a private room by Dr. Natalie, a friendly, competent and sympathetic therapist, for the full hour of the session with no outsourcing of treatment to lesser trained aides. I particularly like this feature because there is no middle man to interrupt and perhaps misinterpret the treatment. This makes it consistent from one session to the next.
Dr. Natalie doesn’t just focus on one area where you say the pain is most pronounced, but takes a broader view and investigates other nearby areas of the body for potential sources of the discomfort. It might surprise you what she finds. When exercises are called for, they are carefully explained and carried out in a larger adjoining room, again with the utmost privacy.
Dr. Natalie is a great team player and works in harmony with my personal trainer from my health club to prescribe and modify exercises that provide the greatest benefit to me with the least possibility of injury to my lumbar area. She even uses iPad videos of my doing exercises on weight bearing machines at the club so that she might later analyze the movements for potential strain on the lower back. Periodically, when my back acts up, Dr. Natalie is there to provide the relief I need so that I can continue to swim, take walks and do exercises for my core seven days a week, as well as lift light weights three times each week at the club. There are no drugs involved or suggested in the treatment and Symmetry accepts Medicare which has been of great value to me.
For those of you who have been unable to find relief with other treatments and want to remain active, you’ll be very pleased with Symmetry Physical Therapy and Dr. Natalie. I endorse their program without reservation.

Symmetry Physical Therapy is THE BEST place to go for any spine, joint, structural, or muscular issues! Natalie is AWESOME! Over a year ago I was told by a doctor that one of the discs in my neck was shot and I needed surgery. I was living on pain meds. Natalie started me on Redcord therapy and within weeks I was feeling better and was able to get off all pain meds! Natalie, as well as her other therapists, have an outstanding knowledge of the human body. They help people to move and feel better!
