Healthwell Physical Therapy Group

I can't say enough good things about Sonam at Healthwell PT! She is hands down the best physical therapist I’ve ever had, and I’m so grateful to have found her. As someone living with chronic conditions like POTS, hEDS, CCI, and migraines, I’ve encountered many PTs who aren’t equipped to handle such complexity—but Sonam is different. She welcomes me in with open arms and treats my conditions with a holistic, interdisciplinary approach that truly works. She’s always up-to-date with the latest therapies, modalities, and technologies, which gives me so much confidence in her care. Most recently, I received shockwave therapy for a long-standing Achilles tendinitis injury, and I felt a noticeable improvement after just one session. It’s been a game-changer! Sonam is not only incredibly skilled but also such a kind, compassionate person. She makes every visit a positive experience, and I genuinely look forward to seeing her. Thanks to her, I’ve regained my quality of life and can’t thank her enough for that. If you’re looking for a physical therapist who truly cares and knows her stuff, Sonam at Healthwell PT is the one!

Sonam is the absolute best. She notices things that the best doctors miss because she takes the time not only to listen but to thoroughly test and evaluate. If you want a therapist who truly cares about getting you better, go to Healthwell

I've been working with Sonam for a month and a half now and it's been really great. I've had a 3 year chronic pain journey that has included multiple surgeries and many different injections, PTs, and different approaches. I recently learned I am hypermobile, and Sonam has been helping me with PT and shockwave therapy. It's still early, but I'm starting to see results I haven't for years. I'd recommend Sonam and Shockwave therapy for folks who have chronic issues sue to hyper mobility

I mostly worked with Emily during my time at Healthwell PT. I won't repeat the praises of other reviews, as a lot of it is true. Instead I'll be the rare patient who talks about their shortcomings. Healthwell seems to put all of their hypermobile patients through the Muldowney protocol. There's nothing wrong with this. I came in with a handful of recurring aches and pains, but my primary was an issue with my left SI joint popping in and out of place. After completing the core strength section of the Muldowney protocol, I felt somewhat better. My flare ups were milder and spaced further apart. I continued on to the upper body portion of the protocol. Eventually I got frustrated that my SI joint was still in pain so frequently, and I asked if there was anything we could do to directly address the muscular imbalance causing it. My initial assessment identified those issues but I was never given any targeted exercises. The response I got back was no. No, they don't do anything to address one-sided body issues. No, there is nothing we can do aside from a bit of cupping and massage. This is when I decided to leave. I found a massage therapist who has helped me understand my body in a way that Healthwell did not. I've made even more improvement with his help, and it sucks to realize that the cupping/massage at Healthwell hadn't been targeting the root cause of my SI pain. I think I was an atypical patient for them because I'm already somewhat strong from weightlifting, just not in all the right places. The core strength protocol was something I sorely needed, but the upper body parts were mostly way way below my ability level (ex: I can do 15lb bicep curls but it starts you at 1lb) and I wish there was more flexibility on what they expect you to practice. I also was slightly miffed when my initial assessment caused a diagnosis of POTS to be placed on my file, even though I don't meet the criteria for it.

I come to Healthwell for my hypermobile EDS and everybody I’ve worked with is amazing! Janica, Sonam, and Emily are all wonderful to work with and very knowledgeable. I recommend it to everyone I know with hypermobility or EDS.

I am beyond grateful to Healthwell and my PT, Carolyn Ferenz! Carolyn has been the first provider I’ve ever had to truly work collaboratively with me. Aside from being an expert in her field, she brings a degree of compassion and care I simply have not seen elsewhere. I have been in treatment at Healthwell for the past 6 months and can confidently state that I have seen incredible improvement in my overall physical health and mobility.

Rafaela is amazing. When my back was in dire straits, she helped me find relief with exercises and sitting/standing/horizontal positions. She is empathetic and compassionate, and it's clear she really cares about her patients. I would recommend Rafaela to anyone needing physical therapy!

I had such a positive experience at Healthwell! Rafaela had so such extensive knowledge and is just overall such a kind person. Not only did she tailor my exercise program based on my needs, but she also validated my pain and hesitation around certain exercises. I learned so much from her, and my body is in a much better place because of it!

Sonam Patel and her staff at Healthwelll provided me with the most skilled and effective physical therapy care that I have ever received. Sonam conducted a thorough unrushed assessment of my injuries and crafted a thoughtful home progrram of exercises. She is skilled in a wide range of approaches and strategies drawn from both Western orthopedic models and other models such as Chinese medicine. Equally important, Sonam takes the time to explain her treatments and answer questions. The atmosphere created by Sonam and the support staff is friendly, gracious and caring. In this age of rushed impersonal healthcare that seems driven more by concern with insurance reimbursement than concern for patients, Sonam Patel's and Healthwell's warm and skilled services stand out as a remarkable exception.

I have received the best care from Carolyn at Healthwell. It’s been about a year since I started and she has helped me so much. Part of my need for therapy comes from being hypermobile. It’s not common to find someone that understands how to help those with hypermobility. Carolyn understands this arena of physical therapy better than any other therapist I’ve met. She always listens to what I have to say, asks if I have more to say, and has answers to all of my seemingly minor issues I mention. During every session I feel heard, get great support, and learn new ways of helping myself through movement. She’s amazing! And I have had zero issues with the company as a whole. I highly recommend Healthwell.
