“Vivian, thank you for insights and guidance. You are intuitive, observant and effective. I had torn my long head bicep and you helped me understand the factors that contributed to my injury that I could correct and how to correct them. Based on my progress to date, it seems like I may be able to avoid surgery. Thanks, again. ”

“Thanks to PTPT, I won my office's Weight Loss Challenge
I have been using the Turbosonic Whole Body Vibration for 20 minutes a day, 4 times a week since April 2nd and I'm thrilled to announce that I lost 36.5 pounds (18% of my body weight!) in just 2 months.
Yes - of course - I also exercised and ate a healthy low calorie diet, but I've done that before without these extraordinary results.
The only added element was the Turbosonic.
I just sucked in my stomach, tightened my butt and listened to my ipod while the machine did its thing. Embarrassingly passive.
I don’t know exactly what the Turbosonic did.
Based on my results, it feels like the Turbosonic helped me to tighten up, loosen my cellulite and fat and help to drain my lymphatic system.
I’m back to my pre-baby weight and I feel great.
I’m inspired to keep going for another 10 pounds.
Thanks Vivian.”

“I had the privilege of getting physical therapy and massage from the owner, Vivian, and not only my neck pain was eventually gone, she converted me into a physical exercise fanatic (well, I do my exercises regularly now!). It seems that she knows a few secrets to good physical health and I'd definetely would go to her again and again, if not for pain therapy, just for any old physical therapy. She is so good! Too bad I can only do it when visiting . ”

“I first went to see Vivian at Prevent The Pain Therapy in the fall of 2004 with significant lower back pain that stemmed from two badly diseased lumbar discs. I had already had a micro-discectomy the year before which didn't help and I was preparing to have the new disc replacement surgery in the spring of 2005. My problem was severely mechanical. I had examined all the options and was pretty sure that I was not going to be fixed by therapy, so I'm not going to tell you that Vivian fixed me or saved me from surgery. I imagine she would be able to do that for many with back problems, but mine was significantly more complicated.
What I will tell you is that her methods and approach were perfect. She got me strong and ready for the much needed surgery. I was also taught a new way to think about my spine, back and the core muscles in and around the abdomen while being given very specific techniques and exercises to strengthen my back and correct my posture. These exercises, approaches and treatments are what got me strong enough -- both mentally and physically -- to be ready for the surgery. I implemented much of what I was taught following the surgery and due in part to her help, at 6 months post operative, I am feeling better than I have in five years. Thanks, Vivian to you and PTPT.”

“Prevent The Pain Therapy is worth it's weight in gold! I waited a long time to write this to see if my time and money really paid off; and it did. Several months have gone by, and the healing is still holding strong. And a bonus: My experience with Vivian was like being with a Master Healer or Shaman. I improved on many levels, and the healing was immediate with no side effects. I even got a special relationship with my Healer; loving and appreciating Vivian's "6th sense." and expertise.”

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

“I had a great experience with PTPT, it's a super relaxed, open atmosphere that instantly puts you at ease. I'd never been to physical therapy before and was pretty nervous about it, but I was diagnosed with patello femoral syndrome and referred to a random HMO therapist. I decided to see Vivian instead, having found her through research of my own. She worked very quickly on my leg and then adjusted my spine and back, as well...wasn't expecting that, as I've never had any chiropractic-type work done either. Well, here I am almost a week later, and my knee doesn't hurt, I can walk, I can kneel, and I can stand up from sitting on the floor without using my hands to push myself up. Haven't done that move since Pilates class. Happy side benefit is my back isn't hurting anymore...whatever she did fixed years of working at computers and the two or three times I've been rear-ended on the freeway. Thanks Vivian, I'll be back! HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”
