Leslie and Angela at Inner Balance Physical Therapy are both amazing, talented and compassionate physical therapists.
I was diagnosed with endometriosis at the age of 19 and eventually Dr. Cook referred me to Inner Balance Physical Therapy. I can't honestly express how much this changed my life. I was given a home treatment plan, a better understanding of my condition, and finally a better quality of life.

I was diagnosed with Interstitial Cystitis, and tried to feel better by trying various meds, techniques and suggestions in dealing with pelvic pain that goes along with this type of pelvic disorder. After months of dealing with the pain, and no results, I made an appointment with Leslie, and she was able to help me immediately. Leslie is so intuitive and kind, and therefore, able to discern the appropriate treatment. My frustration lessened, as Leslie gave me hope for continual progress to improve my situation. My pain diminished, and I am truly grateful to have found someone so special, caring

Inner Balance Physical Therapy was referred to me because I was pregnant and had insufferable, shooting pain in my lower back, hips and leg. I first went to the hospital for help and they could not help me. Because Leslie Parker is more of a "hands on" therapist, she leveled my hips and fixed my pain. I could tell that she truly cared about my well-being! Because she specializes in a specific area of therapy coupled with her hands on technique she was able to fix my problem in weeks, versus the months I attempted to get help from the hospital and had never once had relief.

Leslie Parker is truly a miracle worker. Following a difficult twin delivery, I experienced a coccyx injury and inexplicable pelvic floor pain. It made sitting, bending over, and lifting things almost unbearable. After visiting several doctors, a pelvic therapist in Boston, acupuncturists and chiropractors, I visited Inner Balance Physical Therapy as a last-ditch effort at finding relief. Not only was she able to pinpoint the origin of my discomfort, she was able to relieve my pain with just a few treatments. I have since referred friends with everything from back pain to incontinence and she has
