What our patients say about us...
"I had suffered from debilitating migraines for 4+ years, and after several neurologist appts, trial and error with different medications, insurance pre-auth headaches (no pun intended) I had almost lost all hope at a quality of life. Steve was introduced to me by a trusted friend in the PT industry and I was open to trying this approach."
"My life has completely changed after just a few visits. Steve has a massive amount of knowledge, empathy, and an incredible skill set. Steve is extremely knowledgeable in his craft explains things in very understandable ways. He introduced me to dry needling and did manual manipulations. After my first session I could already feel such a difference in my neck and upper shoulders/back. I’m not waking up with debilitating migraines that had completely ruined my quality of life. I am so eternally grateful for him and his work and am already recommending him to my friends! Thank you, Steve!!"
Preciosa J.

Dr. Tejinder S.
ACE is absolutely AMAZING. As a professional basketball player I can say steve knows what he is talking about and takes time to go into detail to understand you and your Injury. He’s a great guy and didn’t make PT feel like a chore. I suffered a pretty bad hamstring injury and Steve took the time to understand all my problems so he could create the best PT plan possible for me. Not only did he help heal my injured hamstring, but everything around it to ensure I would be better than before. I feel better than ever and have a lot of thanks to give to Steve for that. I would HIGHLY suggest anyone and everyone that wants be better than they were before GO HERE!
