"I had complete knee replacement surgery and my physical therapist was Dr. Dobbs. He did a great job and I can honestly say I was up and walking around the block within just a few weeks because of him. At each session he would show me new exercises that I needed to do which really helped in my fast recovery. Plus he’s a great guy, very nice and very patient, and has a great sense of humor!

"As a massage client for decades I realized that Niko not only had an innate talent I imagined that with education and time he would just get better beyond words. When you work with Niko you can feel and experience the difference of a doctor in physical therapist combined with the mastery of an expert masseuse that he is.

"Niko is a skilled massage therapist. In my experience with him he uses a variety of techniques to provide relaxing, therapeutic & effective treatment. My body always feels more mobile & relaxed after a 60 minute massage, which I try to schedule at least once a month. I have been to many PTs & massage therapists throughout my life.

"I saw Niko after an achilles repair surgery. He was a crucial part of my recovery and I really liked working with him. Whether it was range of motion or strength exercises I felt very comfortable with the workouts he planned out. He was also very good about charting the progress we were making throughout my recovery, it was very encouraging!
