“Vivian is very intense and very effective. Every other PT place I have used was like kindergarden compared to PTPT. Vivian uses a very personal approach to her treatment and is highly specific about what needs to be done in and out of her office as far as exercises and follow-up. She also offers massage and alternative treatments in addition to traditional methods. Vivian truly educated me so I can literally prevent the pain!”

“I was hesitant to step up to the plate and get my shoulder treated with physical therapy, but the pain became too intense to ignore. In my first session with Vivian, she demonstrated how much stress I was storing in my upper body and she set me on a program to stretch, limber up and loosen up. The pain was diminishing and our work continued with several therapies and some work with the pilates machines. Then she started on my neck tension. We've had four sessions so far. The shoulder pain is way way down, I already started carrying myself differently. And a couple days ago, while I was shaving, I noticed that my neck is so much more limber, I can see parts of my jawline and sideburns that I could never see before! Vivian knows her stuff - and she is a naturally gifted healer.”

“Hi, I’m Karen. I met Vivian through my brother and he sent me to her for the pain he was sick of hearing about. I am a musician and my forearms and neck were like bricks and I was experiencing debilitating pain that stalled my life. It's hard to explain how in such a short time I was able to get a deep understanding of my body and how important it was to cherish and take care of it on a constant basis; get rid of the pain; and get back to following my dreams. Being pain free has helped improve every part of my life. Thank you Vivian and PTPT Staff”

“Many years ago there was a PR campaign which asked What Becomes A Legend? This was printed on the adverts of classic female movie star photos like Greta Garbo, Carole Lombard, Bette Davis etc. When I think of Vivian Eisenstadt, I ask What/Who is a Legend? That’s how super she is as a physical therapist and healer. I’d been rather skeptical about trying physical therapy until I tried Vivian. I was struck immediately by her extensive knowledge of the body and its workings. Unlike others before her, she taught me how to correct my walking and sitting posture through exercise and home work. I use the word taught because I believe that a really good healer teaches the patient how to get strong. And because she often acts like a drill Sgt. I forever have her voice in my head as I’m walking my dog, admonishing me to “stand up straight!” and “stomach in.” Vivian has been given the gift of healing. People with doubts and those without should come and experience how good she is and how much better they will feel in her able hands. In closing, I can’t even begin to describe how wonderful she is. I tell everyone I meet that they should see her and why.”

“PTPT IS THE PLACE TO GO FOR PHYSICAL THERAPY! VIVIAN IS AN AMAZING THERAPIST AND SHE KNOWS THE BODY VERY WELL. A PLUS IS THAT SHE IS INCREDIBLY INSIGHTFUL AND IS NOT AFRAID TO SHARE HER INSIGHTS AS THEY RELATE TO ONE'S CONDITION. I CAME TO PTPT AFTER A SERIOUS AUTO ACCIDENT AND COULD NOT WALK VERY WELL AND WAS IN PAIN. I WAS CONSISTENT WITH MY THERAPY AND WITHIN A FEW SHORT WEEKS I BEGAN TO NOTICE HOW MUCH BETTER I WAS FEELING AND WALKING. AFTER 3 MONTHS OF SERIOUS THERAPY, I WAS CLOSE TO BEING BACK TO HOW MY BODY WAS BEFORE THE ACCIDENT. HER OFFICE MANAGER, MARVIN, IS FANTASTIC! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND PTPT TO ANYONE WHO NEEDS PHYSICAL THERAPY. YOU WILL BE GLAD YOU CHOSE THIS EXCEPTIONAL PHYSICAL THERAPY PLACE OF HEALING.”

“Three doctors, two physical therapists and one acupuncturist later and my condition was only getting worse. I had been suffering for over two and half years with a condition that started out as ilio-tibial band syndrome and then proliferated into bursitis in my hip, sciatica and hip piriformis syndrome. My quality of life was in the gutter. I would pray that I could get through a day of work without the pain escalating to the point that I would have to leave, which happened regularly. Driving was very painful and living in Los Angeles that limited me a great deal. I grew isolated because my condition prevented me from going to family functions that were far away, prevented me from going out to dinner and the movies with family and friends and prevented me from fully living my life. That was my life before I met Vivian Eisenstadt. Within five minutes after meeting me Vivian diagnosed me with a severe hip rotation. She did some adjustments for me and within a week, yes one week, I was basically pain free. I have begun physical therapy with her to restore my muscles to where they were before I got injured and with each session I feel myself getting stronger and healthier. There are tears in my eyes as I write this testimonial because I am overwhelmed with gratitude to Vivian for giving me my life back. I would not only recommend anyone to Vivian but I'd also be happy to speak with them directly about my miraculous healing experience.”

“I have never left a review on Yelp before, but this woman is amazing so I felt I had to spread the word. I found Vivian by chance, during a particularly bad episode with my back. My low back was stiff, felt like concrete had formed, or like a baseball was lodged in my tailbone. And, I had lost feeling in my left foot. I've had back problems my whole life, have seen every sort of professional in this area that you can imagine, and even had back surgery. But, 10 years later, I was still having problems. The numbness was new, and scary. I went to Vivian feeling desperate to find relief. After one session with her, the feeling started to return to my foot. Recently I became a more consistent patient with her, and am now successfully working with her on preventative care for my back. I thank my lucky stars I found her. She is truly a miracle worker, and is worth every penny.”
