Testimonials – We get people talking
“I’m more than happy to recommend Dr. Jo and Touch of Life Physical Therapy. What began with an initial consultation to evaluate a torn ACL shoulder joint, has become a recurring, standing appointment to address issues with my lower back, hamstring pulls, corrective spine and posture alignment and to strengthen my overall core. Dr. Jo is highly knowledgeable, professional, patient and dedicated. I often feel as if I’m his only patient as our sessions are always comprehensive and never rushed. Dr. Jo’s positive manner, his concern for my well-being and attention to evaluating my core issues, as well as monitoring my rehabilitation, goes above and beyond any previous physical therapy or chiropractic work I’ve experienced. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Jo without reservation; a hidden gem with a long, bright career ahead.”

“I’ve had an amazing experience with Dr. Jo. I feel my flexibility and strength improving after every session. His knowledge and expertise in trigger point therapy is extremely helpful.
He is great at releasing tight muscles which allows for more productive stretching. I’d recommend Dr. Jo to anyone who is working through a rehab process or even just looking to improve their strength and flexibility as a preventive measure.
He’s also pleasant company to hang out with during our sessions.”

“I had such a satisfying experience with Dr. Jo. The office is conveniently located near most major subway lines.
I was initially visiting to correct my pelvic bone, but he also went out of his way and took a quick look at my shoulder & neck as well. I am going back again to get my neck & shoulder treatment.
The whole session was very soothing and pleasant, and I almost fell asleep towards the end. Dr. Jo was very knowledgeable and friendly and I have been recommending him to all my friends :).”
