I can’t say enough about their knowledge & professionalism. Thanks to Nadine & Joel, I’m able to do my normal exercises with much more strength & confidence. Mission Move is my go-to place for physically therapy moving forward."

"Dr Joel is 5-star. I came to Mission Move for an ongoing neck/shoulder issue that was accompanied with disturbing nerve issues in my arms and hands. I was no newbie to physical therapy, and I chose Mission Move over other options that took insurance because I really wanted some serious focused attention for my issue. Dr Joel spoke to me personally on the phone first and then I came in for a consultation. I really felt like he heard me and wasn’t rushing. He is also an incredibly nurturing, healing person to be around, on top of his expertise. Highly recommend Dr Joel— he has the experience, training, wisdom, and spirit for helping people live their most mobile lives."

"Joel is an excellent therapist. He helped me with my lower back issue. Each week he would show me exercises to help build up the back muscle. It was so helpful to work with an expert and learn the proper form of the exercises. Part of my issue was that I was exercising but not using good form. Joel was so helpful and my back is no longer hurting. Also he is a great person overall and very easy to talk too.

"Dr. Joel has helped me so much since I started going to him for PT. Dr. Joel spent a great deal of time learning about my history, daily habits and workout routines to recommend some stretches and workouts. I chose Mission Move because it’s right down the road from me and I am so glad that I did. I am back to working out and playing tennis even more so than I was before I started PT. I highly recommend Dr. Joel, he’ll get you moving in the right direction!
