Athletic Therapy

“Kristen was amazing to work with! I dislocated my knee cap and once I got the clear from the doctor to walk on it I went right to Kristen. Her knowledge was very impressive, she pushed me just enough out of my comfort zone to give me the confidence in trying exercise again. She was very reassuring and would look up anything she was unsure about. I would highly recommend Kristen to anyone with an injury.” ~ Cori O

“I got the opportunity to work with Kristen for my right knee pain. After a soccer injury last summer, regular physio therapy wasn't working and it was getting to the point where the next step was "Surgery".  I got in contact with Athletic Therapist, Kristen and my knee has improved enough that I can play sports again with out so much pain.  It's not 100% but it's a step in the right direction. Thank you” ~ Andrew L

"I cannot thank MSPAR enough, in particular Kristen, for all her help after I put my back out. Without her experience and treatment I would not have returned to my normal activities so quickly. Kristen is professional and very passionate about what she does and this reflects in her concern for her patients. Kristen mixes in massages and manual therapy to help relieve the pain and strengthen the muscles.  Kristen also sends emails with exercises that can be done at home. I would not hesitate to recommend Kristen and MSPAR to anyone." ~ Carlo L

"I hurt my shoulder while exercising at the gym February 2018. I went to a physiotherapist and a chiropractor with a lot of severe pain in my shoulder and neck every day. They diagnosed my problem as 1. Impinged shoulder (physiotherapist) and 2. scapula injury(chiropractor). Both told me to rest it, ice it, till better and later gave me light stretching exercises but pain never subsided. I wasn't sure I might be stuck with it and was so down in the dumps. A friend had told me about Dan so I called him and made an appointment. On the first appointment in January 2019 he diagnosed my injury as a problem with my shoulder Labrum and gave me stretches and light weight training to rehab it back and showed me how to massage the injured area to help relieve pain. I have been two and a half months with him and I can not believe how much better my shoulder feels. Most days I have no pain now and it has changed my entire mental feeling of well being and my outlook towards life. I was also having trouble with a previous diagnosed knee injury and he examined it and told me it was my hip not my knee and he showed me how to massage muscle and gave me some exercises to do and it is now healing properly. My ulnar nerve was also a problem and he gave me some flossing exercises and it is completely healed. I am so thankful to Dan for the help he has given me and would highly recommend him to anyone who attains an injury. He is a true professional.

"What a blessing its been to have Dan in our lives. He is phenomenal at what he does!! We have had numerous ailments within our family over the years & Dan has literally been a lifesaver in every case. His professionalism & complete knowledge continues to impress with each & every injury we have had to see him for. The confidence of knowing when you go to see Dan & getting the correct prognosis & rehab along with the personal support is something we cannot say enough about. Thank you Dan for all you do; thank you for your care, compassion & support. You truly are a one of a kind." ~ Marty S

"Luke has been seeing Dan for over one year now. He worked with him to improve strength and he also has worked with him on abdominal rehabilitation and now, back rehabilitation. If you are looking for someone who is knowledgeable about the human body, takes a vested interest in your child, explains programs, injury and treatment plans, then MSPAR is your best choice. Dan's commitment to getting the athlete back at their game is inspiring!" ~ Cindy H

"Dan was able to relieve my SI pain and help me re-work my posture to be able to keep the pain away. I would recommend him!" ~ Rebecca C

"Thanks Dan! Very thorough testing - progress reports every week that were forwarded to our doctor. Gave us a report for school as well, to help integrate Maggie back in to the classroom at the right pace. Highly recommend Dan and the services he provides at MSPAR." ~ Lorrie M

"Thanks, Dan! For looking after Austin's concussion the last few weeks and getting him back on the ice, but mostly for explaining the reasons for waiting until he was 100%. Big thanks also for fixing Jacob up quickly a few weeks ago, so he could get back on the ice without missing any games!" ~ Jodi H
