Vince was extremely approachable and made sure I was the main decision maker in my therapy.

I started seeing Vince for a wrist injury I had been dealing with for around 6 months. He was extremely approachable and made sure I was the main decision maker in my therapy. He asked me about my goals for therapy, how often I would commit to exercises (on my own) and when we should do follow-up.

After the initial consultation he uses an app (True Coach) that lists all the exercises (frequency and duration) specific to your recovery. Videos can be attached to demonstrate each movement. He is also great about following up with how the movements are going or if anything needs to be modified.

I had been to PT before (for other injuries) and hadn’t had success. The injuries continue to nag and usually they tell me to stop doing whatever aggravates the injury. Instead, Vince collaborated with me to get healthy so I could continue with my activities! I would recommend Vince to anyone who is looking for a physical therapy program. His goal is to get you healthy and back to your active lifestyle!

Vince is a knowledgeable, collaborative therapist. In a few weeks, my pain decreased, range improved, and pull-ups returned.

“Vince is fantastic to work with. Not only is he incredibly knowledgeable, he listens and he is collaborative. I have felt like I am a partner in my journey to get better, not just a patient. When I first came to see Vince, I had pain in my shoulder every day, my range of motion was lessened, and I had lost the ability to do pullups. After working with Vince for just a few weeks, the discomfort has decreased, my range of motion has improved, and I got my pullups back. I would recommend Vince to any athlete looking to repair an injury or recover a performance deficit.”

Vince understands the demands of CrossFit and provided effective exercises. My pain went from 7 to 1 within a week. Highly recommend!

I’ve been doing CrossFit for years now, a few months ago some elbow pain popped up and had just been dealing with it. Eventually it got to the point where I couldn’t do that anymore. Went to Vince and he was great! He does a lot of the same things I do so he understands the demand that it could take on the body and what things could help. My pain was at about a 7 or 8 for months, after visiting with Vince and doing some of the exercises he gave me, within a week the pain was down to a 1. He’s very knowledgeable about what he does and gives very actionable steps to deal with whatever might be ailing you. Holy recommend his services if you are in need!!

Vince thoroughly broke down every muscle to build my foundation back up.

I came to Vince for plantar fascia which stemmed from the calf, hamstring and hip after peeling back the layers. Vince actually sat down with me to get to really know what I was dealing with and how it affected me on the daily! He completely evaluated me head to toe to try and peel back the layers! Vince thoroughly broke down every muscle to build my foundation back up! I am back to running and continuing my work to build my foundation to be a stronger me! I highly recommend working with him- he is very professional- kind hearted- has an open door policy- and checks in with you during the week in between your visits to see how you are doing.

Seeing the quick progress was a great feeling.

I was doing running intervals when I felt a little something tweak on inside of my thigh. Turns out it was an issue stemming from my bunion, which irritated my adductor. The exercises Dr. Vince prescribed to me made total sense. There were two of them. They were not challenging at all, not even tedious. They were very easy, simple, and basic. And, as the pain lessened, the exercises progressed in a very linear way. After just four days, I was able to complete my exercises totally pain free. I started squatting at bodyweight just five days after later and deadlifting on day six. By day seven, I was rocking and rolling again in the gym! Seeing the quick progress was a great feeling then and I feel great now!

Is CrossFit Dangerous?

Yes, injuries can happen in CrossFit, just like they can happen in weightlifting, bodybuilding, running, and almost any other sport or physical activity. But for some reason, CrossFit seems to get an unfair reputation as being particularly dangerous.
