 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have nothing but great things to say about Grace and Sustain PT, and I highly recommend this place for anyone looking into PT! I’m a trail runner, hiker, and just someone that does a lot of outdoor activities. I was experiencing some Achilles pain while training for an ultra marathon, and can get random pains here and there. I wanted to go to a PT that would really understand what I’m training for and have a good idea of what I needed to strengthen to run pain free. Grace has been so amazing each session, she explains every exercise in depth. She’s made it so digestible for me to understand why I’ve been having pain and why the exercises we’ve worked on together will improve my running and overall strength. She’s been so flexible with the plan, and has tailored the plan to what kinds of runs and activities I’ll be doing in the upcoming weeks. And beyond the PT/ strength training, she’s been very helpful in suggesting running volume. Even just 3 months from our first session, I’ve been running basically pain free and am feeling much stronger and more confident in my abilities! Also Grace is a pleasure to work with and every session has been so fun.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would give this clinic 20 stars if I could. Coach Adam’s expertise, flexibility, drive, and tools have made me healthier, stronger, more flexible, and able to perform again at a high physical level. I’m a Marine Corps combat arms veteran with overuse and lagging injuries from the extremely taxing physical demands of that profession. Adam assessed my physical limitations, blended it with my background, and came up with a great plan of action through a modern strength and conditioning app. Adam was extremely flexible with scheduling, and very responsive with any questions or feedback.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend Sustain and Dr. Grace Yawman enough! I came in with chronic back pain from years of ballet dancing. As a young woman, I didn't realize the importance of addressing this until I came to see Grace. Through trial and error, she helped me create a routine that made me so much stronger and my pain resolved. The PTs here are truly so kind, respectful, and fun people to be around. They make you feel heard and comfortable both on-site and through their messaging system. Again, cannot recommend enough!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have nothing but great things to say about my experience with Adam! I hurt my shoulder while training for an Ironman and he was able to help me get back to swimming. He was super responsive and made sure the plan would fit into my busy life. I can’t thank him enough for helping me get across the finish line!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After spending ~4 months and a lot of money on standard PT with no results, I am so happy I found Sustain PT. They were knowledgeable, cared about my feedback and consistently adapted and progressed my program based on what worked and what didn’t. They allow you to take advantage of at home independent sessions through app-based programming which really helps. Also, they made sure to set me up for success with a long term maintenance plan once my in person sessions had ended. Would definitely recommend!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have worked with Grace for about nine months. I was struggling with some lingering injuries and chronic issues so I wasn’t confident how far to push myself rather than rest. She has designed some very thoughtful programs that are strenuous without high weight and thanks to her my issues are either fixed or clearly improved. Grace has an excellent knowledge base and has been willing to listen to ideas and incorporate some without losing her objectives and priorities. Our sessions are efficient and at an ideal level of challenge versus strain. I see constant improvement even on weeks where I don’t do enough independently. Overall this experience has given me exactly what I was looking for.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Short version: Consistently exceptional
Long version: I'd had shoulder issues for 20+ years, dating back to high school and college sports injuries, worsened in my adult life when I decided to take up skiing. I'd come to accept that this was just the way life is and its par for getting old. I'd tried other PT providers and considered surgery that was not certain to improve the condition and could possibly worsen it. About 2 years ago I clicked a link on Instagram for a low cost consult and eval and gave it a shot. Within 6-8 sessions I was seeing significant improvement in strength as well as ROM. After sessions 10-12 I turned the corner and started to regain use I hadn't had in years. I've worked primarily with Dr. Adam Liptak, but in during my time at the facility I've regularly interacted the Dr. Adam Babcock and other members of their staff. All around exceptional group of people. This place went far beyond the usual "hey good session today, we'll see you next time". On numerous occasions, we've had lengthy discussions regarding therapies, hydration, training types, ideal workout gear etc. This place is a total package. I've since graduated from physical therapy and now combine my work with sustain to include personal training, fitness goals, tracking, weekly workouts and monthly evals...All part of the initial package. The also worked around my (unreasonable) work schedule. No upsells, none of that. My FSA through my employer covers the cost of my PT and training with Sustain, yours probably does too. Like everything else, you get out what you put in. This group has all the staff, all the equipment, all the knowledge, and all the professionalism to put you back together and build you back better. Great people, great work. Like I said, consistently exceptional.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm so glad I found this place to help me get a jump start on my recovery even though I had one true session recently I am already starting to the see the results. Shout out to Dr. Nate! He explains things that are easy to understand and he's very patient. Since the winter have made great progress and back to doing all of my activities like nothing happened. Getting stronger and getting faster with running now too went from PT to now personal training and they really do make you rebound fast stick with the homework and you'll see results! Couldn't have been any more happier!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend Grace highly enough. As someone who was not a runner, I would not have successfully trained for and completed my first marathon without her guidance and expertise. Her knowledge and personalized approach helped me stay injury-free throughout training and arrive at race day confident and prepared. Grace is professional, supportive, and genuinely invested in her clients' success. I am incredibly grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone pursuing their fitness or running goals.
