Onward Physical Therapy's Online Review Report Card

Dr. Zac's exercises and routines have been essential in treating my back pain. After trying medication and a different PT, I was pretty much resigned to living with a constantly aching back, but this has massively improved my situation.

Professional environment. Unlike any other physical therapy place I have been to! They want to see you succeed and meet your goals. Would highly recommend!

I can’t recommend Jessi highly enough—she is truly an exceptional physical therapist! From the very first session, Jessi demonstrated not only deep expertise but also a genuine passion for helping people heal and thrive. Her ability to explain complex body mechanics in a way that's easy to understand made me feel confident and informed throughout my recovery process. What really sets Jessi apart is her personalized approach. She took the time to listen carefully, tailor each session to my specific needs, and continuously adapted the plan as I progressed. Her positivity, patience, and encouragement created a supportive environment that made even the toughest exercises manageable. Thanks to Jessi, I’ve regained strength and mobility far beyond what I expected—and I actually looked forward to each visit! If you’re searching for a physical therapist who combines skill, compassion, and results, Jessi is the one.

Dr Amanda was amazing!! She is so knowledgeable, breaks it down into manageable steps, and is so kind! Will 100% be back!

Needed help getting back to playing Pickleball regularly. I had been in pain and not able to play for several months and decided I needed not only professional help, but someone who understood the game and how I wanted to move and also forward thinking with their approach to resolving the issue. That's when I discovered Amanda Ayala at Onward Physical Therapy. I had my free 15 mins consultation and I explained my issues and I wanted someone who understood the game of Pickleball. Within 3 sessions I am now back playing Pickleball daily and staying pain free. With her help and guidance and recorded stretches and ways to help my calves I have no excuses to forget what I should do. She also introduced me to cupping and dry needles to help with the recovery. The best part is that although its an hour session once a week I can always message her with any questions or concerns and I know they will be answered within 24hrs.

Amanda is an amazing physical therapist! She listens, truly cares, communicates constantly and even reply’s and helps on her days off. When I called her, I literally could hardly get out of bed. I came in with persistent lower back stiffness that had been building up for weeks and eventually led to a painful back injury. My recovery was slow, and I struggled with tightness, flare-ups, and discomfort when sitting or standing for too long. Amanda helped me tremendously by relieving pressure and is helping improving my mobility. Since starting PT with her, my stiffness has decreased, my movement feels much better. I’m not 100% yet, but thanks to Amanda’s guidance, I’m making real progress and finally starting to feeling like myself again. Highly recommend!

Ali has been phenomenal to work with! I started working with her for birth prep around 20 weeks and I am currently 34 weeks. She has worked with me to completely eliminate my hip pain and has helped significantly reduce my back pain. I can’t wait to continue my work with her post partum!

I saw Dr. Jessi Witherington on Feb. 14th after injuring my knee a couple of weeks before. She did a very professional assessment asking detailed questions about my health, fitness level and the injury itself. Jessi then took me through exercises with bands that along with icing to reduce the swelling she believed would give me relief. She actually video taped and explained the exercises that she had me perform so that I could do them easily once I got home. Jessi immediately relieved my anxiety with her caring, professional disposition. She took time to answer my questions and to go over everything so that I felt comfortable by the time I left the practice. I would highly recommend Onward Physical Therapy and Dr. Jessi Witherington! Gratefully, Mary Ann M.

So thankful for Zac and the team at Onward! Zac developed a rehab plan that allowed me to heal while also continuing to do the workouts I love. I cannot recommend Onward more!! My only regret is that I didn't seek help from them sooner.

Jessi was incredible! Could not believe how thorough she was and how she repeated back everything that was going on. She didn’t miss anything! She was so focused on my feedback and I feel confident leaving about the treatment plan we came up with. 10/10 recommend Onward!
