When I first met Natalia I had just interviewed about 12 different possible therapists/surgeons that would be part of my recovery program. I had a very bad accident skiing that torn fully my ACL and meniscus. Surgery was confirmed as necessary; but due to busy business agenda immediate surgery was not ideal. When I met Dr. Natalia, immediately I could see how she not only paid detailed attention to my symptoms but also had made very accurate observation and suggested to wait for surgery and do pre surgical therapy to prepare for my surgery. Then together with her and my surgeon’s input she built a plan that would give best results, and also work with my business agenda. It was a real commitment from both ends... I know I had to give my 100% commitment as a patient but having her 100% commitment and knowledge was definitely a factor that made my procedure and recovery soooo successful. My accident was mid-December I met Dr. Natalia mid-January (when I met her I could not bend the knee and it was very swollen), pre surgery we worked 2 months to prepare and strengthen my leg as well as get back most of my range of motion to help with post surgical recovery. I had a pretty intense surgery, but in 3 days after I was back with Dr. Natalia and also back in my office. It was lots of work and dedication but it paid off. She was always there along the way, guiding me on the do’s and don’ts to recover quickly and consistently. My doctor constantly commented how impressed he was with how well conditioned the knee was before surgery and how great and fast my recovery was going, a lot of that was due to Dr. Natalia’s expertise and commitment. I was very dedicated to my recovery, but it would have definitely not been the same without Natalia... Always motivating me to do what was right and providing me the best therapy exercises and attention... Her knowledge combined with her discipline and nurturing spirit was the best company I could have had. It has been about 8 months. I have gotten full release from doctor in 6 months (normally it takes 9-12) to do all as I did before my surgery. I’ve always maintained a very active and fast paced lifestyle... I could not be happier to have gotten it back so quick and stronger than before. Additionally Natalia is very well prepared to advise on post therapy work outs, that make me recover faster but physically I’m even looking better and stronger. After all my research in finding Natalia as my Doctor in physical therapy... I’m confident to say she must be one of the best therapists in the nation… in my point of view, she is THE best!

I had surgery to repair my ACL and meniscus in 2015. My surgeon gave me a list of therapists he recommended to work with for rehab and Symmetry was one of the ones listed. I am one to do my due diligence before making an important decision (I visited 6 different surgeons before choosing the one who performed my surgery) and this was no exception. After contacting various physical therapists, even ones that were located closer to me, I chose Symmetry physical therapy because of the immediate warm treatment I received and the desire of Natalia to go above and beyond to ensure I was well equipped and prepared for the start of my long road to recovery. I could have gone with the more convenient option and just chose a physical therapist that was closest to where I lived but instead I chose Symmetry because I wanted the best possible treatment and help in order for me to recover fully so that I can return to playing sports stronger and pain free. From our very first session Natalia’s knowledge and attention to detail stood out so much that I felt reassured that I chose the perfect physical therapy company and physical therapist to help me get back to playing sports and being regularly active. I would recommend Natalia and Symmetry physical therapy to any and every one. Thank you Natalia and the Symmetry physical therapy family…for everything!

Initially, I chose Symmetry for PT because of its walkable location from my apartment - and it turned out to be the best decision I ever made. And now, Id come to Symmetry regardless of proximity after my experiences here. Symmetry does an exceptional job of making treatment 100% personalized and catered to the individual - every single part of my program centered on the things I love to do - lifting, running, and going to cycling classes. The team here takes time to know their patients and get to the bottom of whatever movement dysfunction theyre encountering. Any time I have an issue, I know I can call Symmetry and theyll find time for me to come in and feel relief. For example - I tweaked my neck two days ago, called Symmetry yesterday morning, and was able to be seen at 12:30 that same day. And needless to say, the pain relief I feel is unreal after just one session. Symmetry also blends physical therapy with strength and conditioning, sport-specific exercises, and general physical fitness - the way it should be done! And to top it off, it truly is a one-on-one patient experience, which is rare these days. Im so happy I stumbled upon Symmetry by wanting a nearby clinic - its turned out to be the best PT experience Ive ever had.

I am retired and spnt the winter in Miami Beach mostly to get out of the cold up North for my stage 4 osteo-arthritic knee which is sensitive to the cold now. I was given a fabulous referral by a friend of mine, a former client of Natalia who had reconstructive surgery for a torn ACL. I ended up having a great vacation experience of enjoying the ocean, on Miami Beach, bike riding and visiting Symmetry Physical therapy 1-3 times a week for stretching work and massages which really helped keep my body loose and not tight. I had the best of everything: the beach and the professional care of SPT which gave some structure to my free time and worked wonders for my strength, endurance and pain management. I have an automatic response now if I have pain to stop and stretch using many of the exercises I learned from Natalia. For anybody in the same boat as me who is a candidate for a knee replacement, SPT is great way to strengthen muscles, increase flexibility and manage pain until surgery. Now that Im back up north I really miss the routine- and will definitely have a physical therapy working vacation when I go back this winter! I cant say enough about everyone who works there! This is a find!

I have been a patient of Symmetry for two injuries in the last two years.The first time was for a severe rotator cuff strain where I couldnt even raise my arm to put on a shirt without great pain. The second was for a muscle strain in my left knee which caused me chronic pain and made it almost impossible to climb up or down the stairs. Natalia and Bill both treated me for these injuries and the results in both cases have been immediate pain relief and full recovery after treatment. As a man nearing 60 years of age, I can attest that the Symmetry team restored my flexibility and normal range of movement, enabling me to continue a vigorous exercise routine and return to peak form. Their new offices are immaculate and spacious and they have invested in the latest technology. More importantly, their knowledge and experience enabled them to administer the right treatment for my condition. I hope to remain injury free for many years to come but it is reassuring to know that if there is a mishap along the way that I will be able to rely on Symmetry to get me back on track again!
