Clinical knowledge is iof itmost important in the physical therpay setting and they have lots of it! Treatment options are tailored but not before doing a full body mapping to find the issues to tackle. Activ Axion is my go-to. Anoush Gundjian2025-07-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Mario to anyone looking to clear up their physical ailments. My daughter was suffering from long-standing shin splints. Mario was very detailed and conscientious throughout his investigation and manipulations which not only healed her injury but also pin pointed weaknesses to be worked on. He sent us graphical and video demonstrations assisting her with at-home exercises. He did not force more treatment sessions than she actually needed. We feel very lucky to have found Mario as an Athletic Therapist! susan mourad2025-07-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't thank my athletic therapist Mario enough for the incredible care and expertise. After struggling with shoulder pain, he not only helped relieve my pain but guided me through a full recovery. His knowledge, attention to detail, and tailored treatment plan made all the difference. I'm now back to doing what I love, pain-free. Highly recommend Mario to anyone looking for real results and long-term healing! Jamie Elalouf2025-07-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Highly recommend him to others Trina Sarin2025-07-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently spent a couple of months being treated by Alexis Boosamra at Activ Axion. Her service was very friendly, professional and thorough. I felt like I was in great hands from the first session. My knee injury was preventing me from doing the physical activities that I loved and Alexis helped me get back to those activities, cautiously and with a lot of support and expert treatment. I followed her recommendations and regular communications for exercises and home care of my knee, as well as for the timing of my return to physical activity, and I'm so thankful that I did! My knee is doing great and I couldn't be more pleased. I highly recommend Alexis and her service! ---------------------------------- Excellent, thorough and professional service, with fantastic follow up care. Mario is very knowledgeable and good at what he does. Additionally, he goes above and beyond to make sure his patients are doing well, even after treatment has been completed. My daughter suffered a concussion from sports and Mario was pivotal to her recovery - throughout the multi-week treatment plan, she always felt comfortable and secure, reassured by the regular progress she was making thanks to Mario's methods and protocols, as well as his regular communication and support. We highly recommend Mario and his service! Sritharan Mahathevan2025-07-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
