    John was highly recommended to me by a good friend and he has more than lived up to that recommendation. He has provided the best physical / trigger point therapy I’ve ever had. Most recently I had a flare up of lower back and glute / piriformis etc tightness, cramping combined with neuropathy from sciatic aggravation/ inflammation. He demonstrated deep knowledge of the affected muscles and nerves and great skill relieving the muscle tightness and cramping. In one session provided enormous relief to the muscle tightness and heat and aggravation of the sciatic by the next morning.

    So lucky to have found John and Motionwise. His experience coupled with his engaged attitude have made a huge difference in my daily life. He took the time to truly understand the whole of my individual situation in order to come up with a successful therapy plan. He is professional, available and approachable. Trifecta! I would highly recommend John to anyone in need of his services.

    John is an absolute healer! I went to him for chronic pain and he was able to get me feeling better after just one session. He is a master at his profession and a true grift to anyone struggling with pain.
