“I came to Prevent The Pain as I was done with Chiropractors bleeding me for insurance and co-payments. I was initially skeptical, and cautious. After my initial consult, I was hooked! Vivian looked me over, and knew exactly what I needeed. My posture sucked, I walked wrong, the chronic pain in my back was a result of this, and until I KNEW what the problem was, there was no way to realize that I could truly be pain-free. After a few sessions, I felt 1000% better. She enabled me to be more in-tune with my body, and to know what to do and not to do. I am very grateful that she helped me with finding out the cause of my discomfort and pain, and treated that, instead of trying to fit me into a cookie-cutter program that helped pad her pocket book, and didn't really help me at all. She cares, and will help you! On a scale of 1 to 10, Prevent The Pain is a 20! I'm a new person since I saw her, and can't thank her enough!”

“Vivian has the personality and experience to make you want to recover. A pleasure to be treated and the results were amazing. I would happily recommend PTPT to anyone. Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere in the treatment rooms and if you're a dog lover, there's another plus! Don't just take my word for it. Have an accident! Pay her a visit!”

“I went to PTPT seeking help for an unbelievably painful shoulder. I experienced an injury to my shoulder from playing tennis. Before visiting PTPT, I visited multiple other doctors for help. None of them worked...not even slightly. However, once I began PTPT, I instantly noticed improvement on my healing. Since I started PTPT a rough three months ago, my shoulder has recovered about 70%, possibly even more. While I used to have difficulty using my shoulder and arm when dealing with the most simple tasks, I am now able to use my shoulder without much worry. I would recommend anyone with an injury or chronic pain to visit PTPT, because it has proven to be remarkably effective.”

“I am only in my thirties, but being 6 foot 3, and working behind a desk for 10 or more hours a day, my back began to hurt, so I went to Vivian. I had seen chiropractors and other physical therapists in the past. But Vivian works with a unique and different approach. My back pains are now gone. I feel much better. And she taught me stretches and exercises so I can keep it that way. Thanks Vivian, even if it probably cost you a regular patient. Sincerely, Joshua P. Friedman, Esq. Joshua P.

“Two doctors, two x-rays, two therapists and an MRI but there was no progress with my shoulder until there was Vivian!”

“Vivian is a true healer! After suffering a near death experience from a bowel resection that took a wrong turn, I came to Vivian with hopes of healing from the trauma of Peritonitis, numerous surgeries and recovery from a colostomy reversal. At the time, I was living with tremendous pain and suffering psychologically from the trauma of my ordeal. I had a lot of hesitation and fear.. Vivian was intuitively understanding and gentle yet effective. She got me moving. She had me working through the pain and my recovery was amazing! She was my “Green Mile”. Today there’s not an activity I can’t do. I’ve been off pain meds for over two years and I thank Vivian for initiating my wonderful recovery. I have nothing but positive things to say about Vivian and her healing ability and wouldn’t hesitate to refer anyone into her healing hands.”

“I do not know where to begin about the therapy treatment I received from Vivian and her staff. Everyone on her staff melts together like they have been knowing each other since birth. The treatment I received made me feel as though I should have been here ten years ago when I first injured myself while working. I feel the treatment I received would have saved the worker's compensation some money by me not having the surgeries I did have. The idea of learning that to walk correctly by holding the stomach muscles, tightening up the buttocks and walking with the alignment of my shoulders made the pain go away. The exercise in Pilates and stretching every part of my muscles made a difference in the level of my pain decreasing. The massages were great also, more manipulations than I have ever received from any physical therapist just great in my recovery from pain. I needed a whole month with this group but five days told me a lot about myself and how I could reduce the pain with me. I believe if you are a person who really wants to get rid of the pain go to Prevent The Pain Therapy. The pain you receive during therapy is nothing like the feel of no pain after visiting this group of fine people.”
