Ara was amazing in helping me recover from sciatica. She’s very caring, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. I’ve seen such a huge improvement in my pain and mobility thanks to her. Highly recommend!

I came to Dr. Feliz after an ACL tear (and a stubborn attempt at self-rehab), and I’m so glad I did. Early on, even sitting with my knee bent for too long was uncomfortable and running hurt. Now, months later, I’m back to running short distances, lifting weights, and feeling stronger than I was before. Dr. Feliz takes a comprehensive approach, combining smart, functional rehab with mindset coaching that taught me patience and grace through the process. Her method is thorough and effective. As a healthcare provider, I really value that whole-person approach. Highly recommend her practice.

After a recent car accident earlier in the year, I made the mistake of not properly nursing my injury. I was then referred to Dr. Ara & Dr. Ashley who have been nothing short of amazing. They are so attentive and knowledgeable, making me aware of how much the pain I was feeling was both attributed not only to my physical but mental wellbeing. I like that they incorporate different healing practices to help get you back to feeling like yourself.

I first met Dr. Ara when I needed help with my diasasis recti 1 year postpartum from my 37.5 week twins. 14.5 lbs of baby will do that to you. I was having back pain and intense discomfort in my abdomen; my OB-GYN gave me a list of plastic surgeons to repair the 1.5 finger-width divide in my abdominal wall. As a registered nurse, when the doctor tells you the only solution is surgery, you resign yourself to that route. I researched the best surgeons in that specialty when my brother recommended I see Dr. Ara. When I saw Dr. Ara, she throughly assessed me and came up with a comprehensive plan of exercises to rebuild my core and retrain my all muslces to work in harmony. In less than a year, I saw my OB-GYN for my annual and I told her I closed my diastasis recti solely with PT (not just PT, Dr. Ara's expertise!) My OB's jaw dropped. I don't know what the equivalent to a mic drop in an OB's office would be, but I think that's pretty much it. Dr. Ara gave me my core back! That was a few years ago and now I absoluely trust Dr. Ara's knowledge and expertise. More recently, I experienced intense 10/10 sciatica pain in my left leg and glute and felt bewildered and scared. I could not pinpoint what caused it and was unable to find relief by changing positions and felt concerned that this was my "new normal." I was unable to exercise and not sleeping well. I was encouraged by my friends to see a spine specialist to get steroid injections and to "nip it in the bud." No way, I had to see Dr. Ara first. She assessed my range of motion, came up with a plan, and I followed it to a tee. My pain levels subsided, and I felt hope that I could continue that downward trend. We worked together and I followed her exercise plan to build strength safely and without further inflamming the nerve. I am now happy to write that Dr. Ara has done it again. I am completely pain free without steroids or other invasive treatments. She is such a genuinely talented professional in her field. Her depth of understanding of the human body never ceases to amaze me, and if you're ready to feel better, go to Dr. Ara. It's the best thing to have your movement back. I highly recommend her to everyone. She's the genuine article!

I came here and saw Dr. Feliz for an ankle injury and I was having difficulty with volleyball. I was having pain when running and jumping. When I was at MTI I learned specific exercises to strengthen around the areas of my injury. These exercises helped me get stronger and improve my game and prevent injury. I also learned how to take proper care of my body when I get tight and over use it. Overall my experience was great and Dr. Feliz would explain things to me, took her time, was patient with me, and helped me understand.

I came to Dr. Ara with a tore up knee. Playing hockey and golf was not possible until she got me back on track. Dr. Ara not only got me back playing but made me stronger then before. She also gave me the tools to maintain on my own. I have sent her many referrals and will continue to do so.

I had two herniated disc and had an extremely hard time bending over, moving, and enjoying everyday life. But through my time at the Movement Therapy Institute, I was able not only improve my condition but be better than I was before. I was provided with exercises and advice that has brought me to the best shape of my life. I highly recommend anyone with physical injuries to try the Therapy Institute out to get back to a better way of life.

I had a grade 3 high ankle sprain and extreme swelling from a basketball injury. I was desperate to get back to playing as quickly and possible. Thanks to Dr. Ara’s expertise and guidance my recovery was fast and smooth. She had a perfect balance of patience with the injury while also testing what my ankle could handle. Thanks to Dr. Ara I as bad playing a bit ahead of schedule and feel great. I would highly recommend Dr. Ara to anyone in need of physical therapy.

I had been struggling with my shoulder for a while and my trainer recommended me to go to Dr. Ara to have my shoulder evaluated. I have only been working with her for over a month now and it has been a very good experience so far. Her treatment is very good and the exercises she gives me to do have been key in me making a quick recovery. She is very personable and is very honest and right to the point about what needs to be improved as well. She also gave me a timeline on how long she thinks each stage of recovery will take and she has been spot on, showing her knowledge and expertise. I plan on continuing to work with her as long as possible and am very grateful that she is able to help me!
