Client Testimonials

"Having been through Physical Therapy before, Sara is the first therapist who truly understood my injury & helped design a program to mitigate future injuries."

-- Shaun

"Had a short but very positive experience with everyone at Duffy & Bracken. Came in to work on knee issue pre-Boston Marathon & feel very confident going into race.

Questions were thorough & explanations as well, especially appreciated that exercises were given to do at home & that new exercises were mixed in so sessions were not repetitive. Would come back if future problem came up. Thanks!"

-- Elizabeth

"I feel a lot better after coming here. I learned stretches that help me not crack my back & shoulders. The massages were great too! Helen was awesome!"

-- Allison

"My experience at Duffy was positive. I can say that I have measurable improvement in pain levels (almost non-existent now), mobility (no limping) & flexibility."

-- Darlene

"I am so happy to be restored to pelvic floor health with the help of my P.T's at Duffy and Bracken. My condition is a chronic one, and I know my first choice would be to return here if I face this problem again."

-- Donna

"I am more than surprised at how quickly a tear in the middle of my rotator cuff healed. Helen is an extremely gifted & supportive PT. The exercises were very therapeutic & were taught patiently. I felt like she really understood my body & my injury. She was positive & very encouraging."

-- Catherine

"I just wanted to take this opportunity to write and say what a remarkable experience I had with Steve as my PT. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable and caring- and for the first time in 15 years I feel literally 'back' to normal. Thank you so much!"

-- Anjelika

"In the last week I've sneezed without leaking, laughed deeply without leaking, and walked briskly without leaks."

-- Jeanne

"After spending several weeks recovering from shoulder surgery and having many appointments with several Physiotherapist it was a revelation to be treated by Ann Duffy. Her level of insight into my condition was truly 'head and shoulders' above anyone else's.

In our first session I was manipulated in many more ways than I had been in the past. I was left wondering, "why hadn't anyone else done that"? The technique is effective, intense and challenging while at the same time I felt I was treated with kindness and respect.

No other therapist has spent time looking at my posture, ergonomics on the job and overall health the way she has. Again I was impressed that it was not enough to simply twist me in a few directions from the outside and e done with it, She needed to get inside the problem to be sure everything would be working right a year from now not just a few days from now."

-- Joe

"I am very grateful for the help Steve gave me with my shoulders. I had adhesive capsulitis and tendonitis in my right shoulder for over a year. When I came to see Steve, the pain was almost gone, but the mobility was not back to what it needed to be. Steve did physical therapy with me for about 6 week, and I would say my shoulder is now at 99% mobility, and the pain is 99% gone, as well. Steve is very professional and serious about helping his patients get better. He is not interested in keeping people in PT for months and months, when that is not necessary. He pushed me to do things I wouldn't have done otherwise and didn't know I could do, and it really paid off."

-- J. Kinnett

"I have been working with Sara for many months to get my bladder muscles and pelvic floor back in shape after several bad UTIs. I was miserable for months, but gradually I have started to feel better. I'm finally able to live my life again- go out, travel, eat normally. There were a lot of weeks where I had forgotten what that was like. Sara taught me a lot about the way that part of my body works-helped me understand how to stretch and relax those muscles- and generally gave me excellent advice. Her patience, calm and optimizing really kept me going week after week during a pretty awful experience. I am so grateful!"

-- Catherine

"This is my second time here and both experiences have been very positive. Helen is very good at explaining what would help and what would harm my back. The exercises and stretches helped me immensely. I am saddened by the fact that this was my last visit for this particular issue, but I have great stretches and exercises that they taught me so that I can continue to get better."

-- Ki

"Everyone at D&B was very helpful and knowledgeable. They definitely knew how to push me enough to help build my confidence. I know now that my knee is strong enough to resume my normal activities.

Thanks Ann!"

-- Kate

"After 5 months of anxiety and frustration I was diagnosed with chronic pelvic pain syndrome. The therapy I was given helped the symptoms go away in only one month. Combining the exercises, with the hands on treatment and massage helped, in addition treatment and massage helped, in addition to the relief of fear as I realized that I did not have a life threatening disease that no doctor could previously diagnose."
