TJ is an outstanding therapist. I’ve been dealing with chronic neck issues for a while, and every time I see him, he knows exactly where to focus to relieve my pain. He has an incredible skill to release tension, improve my mobility, and help me function better in my daily life.

TJ and Sergio at Belden PT are awesome. They helped me get back from a torn ACL and MCL. Very personable and caring, clean shop, and great service. Would definitely recommend.

I came across TJ's name 2 years ago actually at his previous clinic, where I was rehabilitating post knee surgery. My colleague went to TJ post his knee surgery and said amazing things about Belden. Flash forward couple of years, I was having a difficult time recovering from my long runs training for my first marathon. I decided to visit TJ and Sergio for some guidance. Right when I stepped in, I wished I came here 2 years ago. There was no stim or ice machine in sight. I was first seen by TJ who diagnosed some muscle imbalances, taught me how to properly foam roll, and worked on my muscles manually. When I say 'manually,'-- MANUALLY, hence 'physical' therapy :). He worked to soften my knots and release tension in my muscles. While he worked on it, he showed me what a muscle that was massaged out feels like and what more I can do to relieve muscle tension at home. Furthermore, this guy rock climbs after a hard day's worth of work!! So impressive. Beyond the quality of the treatment here, Sergio always responds to my calls and questions about insurance in a timely manner. He works seamlessly with TJ, helping patients with their exercises. I have enjoyed getting to know these guys as well and they are super funny and friendly. I look forward to seeing them for injury prevention/rehabilitation as I continue my active lifestyle.

I came here for help with a sprained ankle (repeated injury) with a recommendation from a friend. I can see why she spoke so highly of TJ and Sergio. They got me back up and running in a couple months. TJ is thorough and knowledgeable. Your first session he not only assesses your primary issue, but highlights areas for improvement for your overall physical well being and to prevent other injuries. His use of manual therapy--while extremely uncomfortable at times--really helped the healing process as I had some persistent swelling. They gave me a great exercise/stretching plans which Sergio ran through with me in the office and emailed to me immediately following each session. Sergio is incredibly helpful with all of your insurance and scheduling needs. They're professional, friendly, and caring which made the sessions enjoyable rather than a pain. They also want to get you healthy as efficiently and safely as possible rather than trying to keep you coming back forever--though you may want to because they're just so amazing. Tip: They can tell when you skip stretching.

This review is long overdue! I have known TJ and Sergio through my numerous injuries and ailments. From my frozen shoulder to post rotator cuff surgery, my fractured ankle and then my sprained other ankle, etc., I have received the best care and treatment from TJ and Sergio! TJ was my 3rd physical therapist and is now my go-to person. He is extremely knowledgeable and has been great at helping figure out what other professionals have struggled to diagnose. Though I miss my therapy sessions with these two, I am glad that I have been able to keep my injuries at bay and my ailments in check. Knock on wood!

TJ and Sergio did an amazing job helping me recover from a torn Achilles' tendon. I tore it a couple of months before my wedding, and somehow they were able to get me walking in time. It was a challenging process, but they were very helpful and pragmatic. I've recommended Belden to several colleagues and friends as well.

After suffering a potentially game-changing severe ankle fracture I was recommended to try TJ Nguyen after Kaiser PT proved low-quality and unavailable. From the beginning, both TJ and Sergio offered a professional, high-quality experience that helped me to recover as fast and safely as possible. They guided me through a really scary post-operative recovery where I had to learn how to stand, walk, and finally run again. Each session was followed by an email containing a downloadable PDF that I could refer to for my home exercises. Every session built upon the last one in an efficient but SAFE way. Their PT studio is also top notch with an expansive exercise floor, treadmill, and multiple massage tables. TJ's use of manual therapy is second to none and I am amazed at how he can work with so many clients given the physical exertion it takes. I have recommended two other people to him with chronic back, neck, and wrist issues and they all had a great experience as well. More than a few times, I asked TJ if I could ever run comfortably again and thanks to him, I was able to more than a month ahead of schedule. My orthopedic surgeon was floored by my rapid progress. Tips: the location is challenging as parking is impossible. Plan on arriving a few minutes early so you can use the nearby parking garage (valet is mandatory). Your insurance company may fight you over reimbursement but Sergio will patiently work with you through the process. Overall, highly recommended!

I have been coming to Belden PT for about a year to help with the issues of getting older and still trying to push my body through running. Sergio and TJ have been incredibly helpful in developing exercises that will help strengthen, balance and engage muscles that are needed for endurance running activities. I now visit them about once a month to make sure that everything is working correctly and to work out any "niggles" before a major run or race. I highly recommend them to keep you healthy or to bring you back to health. Sadly the only negative thing about this review is I think TJ loves making me squirm when he is digging into a deep muscle tissue on my leg, however I do love it. :) Thanks for all that you do guys!

I have survived Belden Physical Therapy Boot Camp. TJ and Sergio are the best. I told TJ his sessions were worse than having a baby. They have prepared me for my upcoming Total Knee Replacement in June.
