PKP

I can’t understand how anyone could have a negative review of Catherine… I get injured very frequently (i do/​teach a lot of very high intensity workouts). I have been seeing Catherine for about 3 years (for various injuries). she’s not only extremely knowledgable but has honestly been able to pinpoint he LOCATIOn of my injury (as opposed to where injury is radiating from) more than doctors and orthopedic specialists. This has happened twice… once I had abdominal pain and was told 1000 different things and Catherine figured out the pain was actually radiating from a back injury. When she worked on my back the pain went away.
Then again this happened when I had shoulder pain and she figured out my pecs were actually extremely tight and pull on my shoulder… again. she worked on my chest/​pec area and shoulder pain went away.
She is VERY strong, but i have never left NOT feeling better, again this is with several injuries and over several years… she is not a typical therapist that just massages you, does bullshit stretches and sends you on your way. she is going to work you to get the injury healed.

Getting treatment here has proved to be a logistical nightmare. I suffer pain in wrists, arms and shoulders from working on the computer, but Catherine will only work on one body part at the time. She can see no connection between the pain I feel in my wrists and arms and the pain I feel in the shoulders, even though it is all caused by the same activity. So u need to schedule a separate treatment appointment as well as a separate evaluation appointment for each body part. If you don’t specify you need an evaluation and end up with a treatment appointment, she cannot change it to an evaluation appointment on the spot, so you need to come back for a new evaluation appointment. She’s also seeing a lot of patients at the same time as JL points out.

I came to Pro Kinetics because the location was very convenient and they happily took my insurance. I had a pinched nerve in my elbow and wrist injury from work. Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience here. I went for a total of 5 sessions and ended up in a lot more pain than before I started. I think they really set back my healing.
The therapist, Catherine, was very very aggressive and I left the office with bruises and I was in a great deal of new discomfort. It really delayed my healing and I think it did much more harm than good. I have consulted another therapist since, who was really surprised by Catherine’s treatment and how aggressive she was. I am healing really well now since I left this practice.
It also really bothered me that during most of my visits I was one of 3 or 4 patients in the room all together doing exercises with very little oversight or assistance. I felt like I got very little supervision/​help during my sessions, I wasn’t really sure I was doing the exercises correctly. Much of the time Catherine was sitting at her computer, not working with any us in the room. Im sorry to write a negative review but I felt pretty badly about the treatment I got at this practice.
