Sports Medicine in Palo Alto

“I’ve been seeing Marcel for Rolfing sessions for a number of years, and his work has been nothing short of transformative for my endurance training and overall physical well-being. As someone who pushes my body through long hours of running, I’ve inevitably dealt with my share of injuries—some acute, others the slow build-up of repetitive strain. Marcel’s skill, deep anatomical knowledge, and intuitive approach have played a major role not only in helping me recover from these setbacks, but also in preventing new ones.
One thing that sets Marcel apart is his philosophy of quality over quantity. He focuses on precision, effectiveness, and understanding what my body truly needs in the moment, rather than simply working through a checklist. This has made our sessions feel purposeful and impactful every single time.
Over the years, I’ve noticed significant improvements in my posture, flexibility, and body awareness, which have translated directly into better endurance performance and more efficient recovery.
If you are an athlete—or simply someone who wants to move better and feel better—I can’t recommend Marcel highly enough.“

“Rikki has helped me so much over the years. As an amateur triathlete, endurance Cyclist, and Master swimmer, I occasionally get over use injuries and Rikke always speeds healing, provides helpful exercise exercises, and dynamic stretches to address the area and is enthusiastic about new research, nutrition. She shares important lifestyle habits for overall longevity and wellness. Her positive approach to recovery and rehabilitation is one of her superpowers.“

“Kurt is the best: very professional, friendly/calm, patient. If you don't understand he will explain you again how to perform the exercises. He shapes the exercises based on your pain level and your progress.
All the staff and the atmosphere are very nice/pleasant: they make you do different exercises, sometimes with unexpected/unusual objects.
I went to three other different places for PT and they are the best!
Camille is also great: she found out something that two doctors did not realize.
I definetely recommend them 100%!!!“
