“Vivian is a lifesaver! Her meticulous attention to detail is the key to quick recovery, proper healing and developing the right muscles. Her belief in skeletal and muscular alignment and her amazing adjustments make her a one-stop shop! As a high level athlete with 2 foot surgeries and a shoulder surgery she was able to put my body back in place and get me to running better, faster and more efficiently in a few weeks after seeing her. I am currently using her as my "Secret Weapon" to help me train for the 2008 Olympic trials in the marathon. Additionally, PTPT has modalities such as whole body vibration, detoxing purifiers, and products/supplements that are helping me to be one step ahead where every second counts. Thank you Vivian, for helping me to make my dreams come true! ”

“As I am writing this testimonial, I just want to note that I am sitting up straight in my chair, my butt is out, my feet are straight in front of me, and I am not straining my neck. I started working with Vivian about three months ago after injuring my back moving furniture (I wish I had hurt myself in a more swashbuckling way). I was referred to her by two of my friends, who in my opinion do not make referrals lightly, in other words, they don’t like anyone. The fact that they would recommend Vivian says a lot about how much she helped them recover from their respective back injuries. Granted, I cannot say my injury was that severe compared to other people I know. I did not require surgery, hospitalization or other invasive procedures. But in my case it was very debilitating. I could not sit or stand for long periods of time, could not exercise, but most importantly could not chase my two young kids around. That is what hurt the most. At first I was skeptical. I had been to other physical therapists for a variety of ailments and none of them approached therapy in the same way as Vivian. Her techniques are innovative. Tugging, stretching, thinking, concentrating are a big part of her sessions. There is no easy ice, ride a bike, stim, and go home. Additionally, she made me do homework, every day, multiple times a day, all movements tailored to my weaknesses and meant to improve my physical lifestyle. But you see the results immediately. You also hear her voice every time you make a movement. That is a gift that is like a gift that keeps on giving. Another step in her healing process is the fact that she has the expertise to review how your body works in unison. She has helped my ankles, my knees and my neck. Last week she had me visit a podiatrist to help my arches. All of this has helped my back immensely. I can honestly say that Vivian is the best physical therapist I have worked with and would recommend her highly. Be prepared to work, be prepared to listen, and be prepared to do your homework. Best of all, be prepared to feel better than you have in a while. ”

“I love getting an adjustment from Vivian. When she puts her hands on me the healing that takes place comes from multiple levels. She has been able to reach places in my body where I have been holding on to stuff for decades. I am discovering a new lighter me. My pain is reduced. My range of motion is improved. I can breathe better and walk better. Please, we all need more love and self-care.....give yourself the gift of a session with Vivian.”

“I was referred to Vivian Eisenstadt and Prevent The Pain Therapy after a car accident. I was a bit skeptical because I had been treated by other physical therapists and chiropractors before and was still in pain. They were always just treating the same spot in my neck. With Vivian, it's a total body experience. She is very smart and intuitive and understands the body very well and knows that you have to take an integrative approach to healing and treat the whole body. She was able to isolate a connective point in my neck/shoulder area that no one else had and treat that. I have already recommended her to friends and would feel comfortable referring her to anyone. And I love the total vibration machine! ”

“I've been to a lot of physical therapists, and it doesn't get any better than PTPT. Vivian truly cares about her patients. Since I've started seeing her I've cut back on my pain medication by over 75%. I feel like a new person with a new body! It's wonderful. Her massage therapists are fabulous too.”

“Vivian Eisenstadt has worked wonders on my back. She has allowed me to enjoy the last few precious months of my pregnancy. I was suffering from a severe nerve pain in my back as a result of pregnancy. I was in so much pain I could barely walk. I tried yoga, stretching, and exercise none of which helped. Desperate, I asked my OBGYN for help. He referred me to Cedars-Sinai Spinal Institute. The first doctor said I was pregnant and there was nothing they could do - that I would just have to deal with it until the pregnancy ended because I couldn't take drugs or get epidurals. I refused to give in and argued for a solution. He brought another doctor into the patient room, Dr. Berkeley. After a short discussion, Dr. Berkeley referred me to a Physical Therapist, PTPT run by Vivian Eisenstadt. Thank god for that stroke of luck. After a few sessions with Vivian, I can now walk completely pain free! She is quick, direct and efficient in her diagnosis. I cannot tell you how grateful and relived I am to spend the last few months of my pregnancy without constant pain. I can now enjoy these last few weeks of pregnancy and send loving peace to my baby. Vivian is a godsend.”

“The REAL DEAL! NO BAND-AID SOLUTIONS HERE I'm a 31 year old woman who was diagnosed with kyphosis and lordosis as an adult. I wore a $5,000 back brace that was aggressively adjusted every few weeks and was only allowed to take it off to eat and shower. It was very painful and although my condition improved for a short while, it eventually returned to its original state. As an adult, I was told my only option was surgery. While researching orthopedic surgeons online, I came across PTPT. My intuition guided me to schedule an appointment and it was the best thing I could have done! At my first appointment I was shocked and relieved to hear that I didn't need to wear the back brace or have surgery! Shortly after beginning my comprehensive treatment plan I tossed my brace in a dumpster and began the healing process. Vivian is the real deal. She is a truly gifted physical therapist and healer who uses her intuition, experience, knowledge and humor to get to the root of the cause. She doesn't believe in short cuts or half-solutions which yields lasting results. Of course, you are expected to do your part with simple at home exercises. Vivian and her amazing team are completely dedicated to your health and well-being. Highly recommended!”
