I started seeing Jeremy due to severe pain in my left shoulder and hip and hip flexor pain that hurt to walk most days. As a triathlete I needed answers and help quickly with a race in under 3 months. He got me to race day and continued to look and tweak things as we worked together to correct and prevent future issues. I love that he is focused on the issue and correcting and preventing instead of a cookie cutter approach many PT take. Will definitely be using AJ Physical Therapy into the future.

I highly recommend AJ Physical Therapy. After a running injury in my hip left me unable to bear weight without pain, walk without a limp and the thought of trying to run brought me to tears I knew I needed help. I was referred and encouraged by several friends to see Andy and I’m so grateful I did. Andy is professional, knowledgeable and extremely thorough. He help me understand my injury and after a handful of therapy appointments along with “homework” exercises/stretches my pain subsided. Thank you Andy and AJPT you guys are simply the best!

I had the pleasure of working with Jeremy on a shoulder injury and customizing a strategy to improve overall flexibility. He spent time explaining what was happening with my problem areas (shoulders and hamstrings), progressively alleviated pain with notable results over the course of a few sessions, and demonstrated exercises to build muscle strength to prevent injuries in the future. I’d highly recommend considering these guys for treatment.
