Can't say enough about Live to Move! The therapists and staff are top notch. I can truly say that because I had sessions with all of them! I mainly saw James who pushed me to do things I didn't think I could do after total knee replacement. I never realized there are so many special exercises to get me back to a straight leg and walking normal! I went there for just over 5 months. If I ever need therapy again, I'll be there in a heartbeat. Great place, treat you like family. Miss you guys! I'm doing great! Can't thank you enough!

It's refreshing to know there are still establishments that care about their clients. I started going to physical therapy for the first time in April 2021 for a labral tear in my hip. It was my first time in physical therapy and I didn't know what to expect. In the initial visit with James we discussed my diagnosis and he gave me an idea of how he can help/ things to alleviate the pain. Each session we worked on a variety of stretches and workouts. James was very positive and friendly, along with the rest of his staff. I recommend this establishment and if I had to go back to therapy this is my

I had two appointments with Dr. James Poenitzsch to work on my lower back (intermittent problems at least once a year). The evaluation and follow-up appointment were great! I received clear instructions and guidance on all movements and a nice set of exercises to loosen up and strengthen my core.

My experience at Live to Move was 10/10! The staff are all personable and caring, and Dr. James helped me get back to normal after a lower back spasm. He made sure I had the tools to continue strengthening my back after my sessions. I went from an old man hobble to runway superstar, (or maybe just a dad who can lift his 1 yr old again). I'm very grateful and highly recommend!

It was a great experience. Molly was very knowledgeable and taught me how to continue my treatment at home if needed. Live to Move teaches you the importance of exercising and moving throughout life and how the body functions. I finished my treatment with much more than I imagined. Also, the facility is really nice. Thank you Live to Move for getting my life back on track.

I am so glad I chose Live to Move for post shoulder surgery rehab. I work with Dr. James and he is fantastic! He is extremely personable and keeps you engaged throughout all of your sessions. He’s been so great at lifting my spirits during tough phases of recovery and working to help me achieve my goals. The entire office is upbeat, friendly and create such a family like environment. Make sure to schedule a session during Caribbean Music Thursdays for some fun music while you rehab ;). Thanks Dr. James and the entire Live to Move family! You are greatly appreciated.
