“I highly recommend Kay Kitazumi. She was exceptional and helped me with my chronic pain. She was a great listener and taught me so much to improve my daily life. I'm very grateful for our sessions.”
“I have just finished 6 months of PT with Dean Yoshimoto and couldn't be more satisfied. Dean first helped me several years ago and I was very happy with his services. It wasn't just the overall result of physical improvement but also the personal comfort and care that I received that made a difference. I have worked with other PT's in the past but none compared to Dean. When I fractured my ankle last summer and needed outpatient PT, I immediately only thought of Dean for treatment. Of course, he's really skilled and experienced as a therapist, identifying and explaining problem areas and expertly working on strengthening, flexibility and range of motion. Besides hands on massaging, we also did some machine and floor work. He also patiently and repeatedly showed me exercises to do on my own and helped evaluate the effectiveness of different shoes that I brought in. He also suggested and demonstrated hand-held massagers. The testimonials already speak to Dean's attributes as a highly trained experienced therapist and his thoughtful engaging style. I won't repeat but will instead pass on one anecdote about his unique compassion for his patients and his work. When my current round of treatment started, my first appointment was mostly evaluation and discussion. I was looking forward to the second appointment to get therapy really started. But the only time available was a Friday at 5:00. But I got a call that Friday afternoon that Dean's 4:00 cancelled so could I come in at 4:00 instead. Sure, I could avoid some traffic and start my weekend! When I arrived, I say to Dean something like "you must be glad that you're 4:00 cancelled. Now you don't have to stay for my 5:00 and wait until 6 to leave on a Friday night. You can go home earlier!" No, he shakes his head, "the 4:00 patient really could use therapy on her injury. I wish she didn't have to miss the appointment." Wow, I was surprised and impressed by his dedication and genuine interest in the progress and well-being of his patient! He has his priorities in order for our benefit, even on a Friday night. Dean loves what he does and is great at what he does. We are lucky to have him in our community. Thank you Dean and the Yoshimoto PT staff!”

He’s super organized & takes care of all your scheduling needs. You’re in good hands. From the moment I met Shawna, she’s full of energy, enthusiasm & is very personable. She’s very knowledgeable, patient, positive & has a knack for creating the perfect program for your individual needs. She provides you with tools to help you get to that goal. She keeps you on your toes, just enough to make you accountable. She’s clear, concise & descriptive in her approach & gives you honest feedback. She’s easy to talk to & shows care, concern & a warmth that makes you feel at ease. She also has amazing strength in her massage! I was blown away. From the sessions that I had, I looked forward to them because I was a step closer to my goal with each visit. She really helped motivate me to push myself toward my desired goal. I was sad when it came to an end it felt like graduation. I was where I wanted to be but would miss the camaraderie. Thank you Shawna & Evan I couldn’t have done it without you.”
