M3 PT Review

As we get older we look for solutions to solve our nagging body aches. Whether you are coming off a recent surgery, or just need to strengthened your body, M3 Physical Therapy is the best at what they do.

Working with my therapist, Therese Palad, I was able to bounce back from my recent hip surgery, feeling stronger then ever. Therese worked with me, taking me through the exercises that I would need to do to get back my strength and mobility. Therese took her time and carefully explained the reasons why I needed to do a certain exercise. Her patience was never ending and much appreciated.

I can’t say enough good things about M3 Physical Therapy. They are the best! And of course it helps when you have a caring and knowledgeable therapist like Therese. She knows her stuff and it shows, as her main goal is to get her patient feeling good again.

Thank you M3 Physical Therapy,

Therese was a wonderful therapist. She was compassionate, understanding and very knowledgeable. I was amazed at how we advanced incrementally from my near total incapacitation of my right arm after breaking my shoulder, to steadily gaining strength and lessening pain through my exercise program. Seeing steady results kept me motivated to practice at home. The office was always a fun and welcoming place to return to.

Thank you, Therese and M3 Physical for helping me heal so well after breaking my shoulder!

I went to M3 for physical rehab and my therapist, Gigi, was absolutely phenomenal as well as her assistant, Steven! Immediately, you can tell the staff take immense pride in their work. Their attention to detail and hospitality for my specific case assured me I was in good hands because I could see how much they care for their patients and want to see them recover as healthily as possible by performing key exercises during visits and establishing an at-home plan for the patients to complete independently. Gigi was kind enough to go out of her way several times to ensure my recovery was running smoothly, displaying how much their team cares for their patients.

Therese Palad is a wonderful physical therapist. She is kind, pleasant, professional and knowledgeable. She helped me relive my knee pains, improve my balance and posture. The M3 office staff are helpful, polite and friendly and the facility is clean and well organized. I would highly recommend Terese and M3 Physical Therapy. Thank you M3 PT!

I went back to M3 when my back pain (for nearly 3 years) did not resolve with my personal trainer. The pain became intolerable as my role as caregiver to my mother became much more involved. The strain also caused my hernia to burst, requiring emergency surgery by a trauma surgeon.

Therese Palad was assigned to me for my back pain. I wasn’t sure if she was going to be able to help me since I assumed all my private training should have helped. We started slowly following clearance by my surgeon and wasn’t sure the few exercises were going to help. I quickly learned that Therese’s knowledge in kinesiology is what enabled me to strengthen specific muscles that were not healing through typical exercises over the 2 years with my personal trainer.

Over time, I found that Therese’s exercises that targeted all my weak muscles. At first, several exercises appeared similar to traditional exercises for core, back, glutes, hamstrings and quads. I quickly found that her exercises (modified in form) gave me relief from the pain, and a higher level of strengthening in a shorter time than I’ve experienced before, either with my trainer or at other physical therapy companies. Within weeks, I was free of the constant pain I was in.

I’ve been to other PT companies, and I’ve only seen the typical exercises. Their therapists aren’t with you the entire time to ensure your form remains consistent. You’re typically left to do the exercises on your own once you’ve been shown how to do them.

M3 Therapists often have a doctorate in physical therapy, some specific to bone structure, and formal training in Kinesiology making them far more effective in creating exercises that will relieve your pain and strengthen your body. Aside from receiving high quality training, Therese is very communicative. Taking time to learn of any new changes from visit to visit, always keeping you in good form, explaining how one modification will work better than another, and maintaining constant feedback to give you the best results.

This was my 2nd time at M3. My first time was 4 years ago and equally successful following a full knee replacement!! Also, a terrific therapist who also had his doctorate degree.
Highly recommend this place.

We always have a great experience at M3. The care they provide truly makes you feel like you are their only patient. We are returning patients and the care and service they provide was great years ago and still is. We will always come back to M3 for our physical therapy needs.

The staff at M3 are always professional and polite. I worked with Gigi for pelvic floor PT while pregnant and now postpartum. Gigi is a prize to work with and learn from! Her knowledge, positive energy and encouragement have been so welcome during this journey into motherhood. I’ve seen great improvement in my strength and trust in my body post c-section thanks to Gigi
