My mother in law went in for an ailing knee condition… and the doctors at PH put together a treatment plan that really altered her entire life. Shes able to play with her granddaughter which she wasnt able to do before. Not to mention she can finally climb stairs normally. She was unable to climb them at all before. Thank you for giving her her life back. My daughter has an amazing relationship with her Grandmother and it wouldn’t be possible without you.

I’m a pretty active individual and I had purchased a groupon from here. I was a little lost in the building at first. I’m used tithe fru-​fru spas to get a massage. But looks aren’t everything! Joanna usually specializes on certain problem areas by demand but for my first one I decided to go for an all over massage. Pressure was perfect. I almost fell asleep! And I definitely didn’t want to get up and leave anytime soon. Talk about leaving and wanting more. I will be back there soon!

Went there for a massage. Joanna was my therapist. I’ve been getting massages for 30 years and this was one of the best. Some massage therapists are very mechanical. For this massage, it seemed that Joanna really enjoys what she is doing. She massaged with care and responded from the feedback from my body. She covered every area just enough, and of course one hour felt like 15 minutes.
The only part of the experience that could be improved is that the massage room is adjacent to the front desk. Thank goodness I was there in the middle of the afternoon and not a real busy time. You could hear people talking, doors closing, etc. I’ve learned through meditation to close out those distractions, and it didn’t take away too much from the experience. But my preference is a quiet, darker environment with new age music. I will definitely book with Joanna again.

As a musician, I have had injuries in my hand that act up when I play often. I also lift weights and stupidly injured myself at the gym. After a terrible experience with a hand specialist at another Rockland sports medicine facility (he told me weightlifting was bad for people), I decided to find someone else.
Dr. Scott and his team were awesome — they analyzed my injury and figured out the core of the problem. I worked with trainer Glenn on some rehab exercises to strengthen the muscles in my hand and then had intense massage therapy with Jason (painful, but worth it) to work out the knots in my palm. Through working with them, I also became more aware of my day-​to-​day activities and how I was using my hand to prevent injury. My hand is now fine!
Dr. Scott is down-​to-​earth, knowledgeable and friendly. He is an athlete himself and understands what it is like to be an injured active person.
A year later I had an unrelated injury in my arm/​shoulder — I started working with trainers Ana and Joe, and loved both of them. Ana definitely kicked my butt and would be a great personal trainer if you are looking to lose weight! Joe focused more on strengthening the muscles around my shoulder to get to the root of the problem and I was so grateful for his sincere concern for my injury. I enjoyed working with him very much. I’d follow every other session with intense (and again, painful!) massage with Gabriel. The massages are definitely not soothing and peaceful — they’re intense and they hurt, but afterward it feels so much better. I’ve also had Rachel massage me at times — also great.
The team at Performance Health is fantastic — it’s not your average physical therapy/​rehab place for old folks or people who broke bones. They are specialists in sports medicine, so they are used to working with ATHLETES. They understand how important it is to get back on the field, back in the gym, and they do everything efficiently and with wonderful attitudes. The combination of personal trainers, nutritionists, massage therapists, and sports medicine doctors will surely lead anyone down a path to healing and wellness, injuries or not.
