I count my lucky stars to have been referred to Rob Abrams at Strive by my local Sports Medicine Dr. I had IT band issues. Experiencing pain and tightness during activity, and eventually in every day life. I saw a different PT several months ago. They did their best to help, but didn't diagnose the root problem. The pain persisted and I went back to my Dr, who referred me to Strive. Rob had an initial phone call with me and diagnosed the root problem over the phone (he confirmed his diagnosis at my first appointment, he was right). Even though he was out of network for me, I knew from that first phone call that he is someone who I wanted to work with. I had about 6 appointments over 2 months. His appts are different than other PTs I've worked with. You work with him 1:1 for the full hour and for me, the majority of the appointment was spent on different massage therapy techniques. He is patient, understanding, a good listener, and great with all of his different hands-on technique. I improved greatly after that first appointment. And now, feeling equipped with exercises and new techniques, can confidently say I don't think I'll ever have to worry about this pain again. The office itself is very clean and well-lit. Parking was easy and free. It wasn't hard to find. Thanks Rob for giving me back a worry-free adventure lifestyle!
