I sought help for back, neck, and shoulder issues, and Dr. Jessica Calderon went above and beyond to target the exact areas causing pain and mobility issues. She is extremely attentive and genuinely cares about her patients’ progress. After just two sessions, with a combination of dry needling and targeted exercises, my pain and stiffness have dramatically improved, and my mobility is noticeably better. I am very grateful for all the help!

I had a cervical fusion done a few year ago and a lot of issues after with tightness/muscle guarding, etc and Jess and Primal are the only place that can get me relief. I highly recommend.

Dr. Thomas is amazing. I’ve had back and hip pain for almost five years that has significantly impacted my life. I went to traditional PT, chiropractor, acupuncture and always plateaued. I had actually grown depressed about it and thought I’d have to live with the pain. Dr. Thomas applied her innovative approach that over the course of about four weeks resulted in significant relief. Now after about 6 sessions, I’ve been pain free.

JJ and her team are the best in the game, especially for combat sports. Been through a number of reputable PTs who can help alleviate immediate pain and symptoms but Primal is exceptional at finding that root cause and helping you manage it through in person sessions and at home workouts. The staff is also super friendly helpful, and clearly super knowledgeable about what they do. Bonus material for JJ having the best workout app around so check it out if you haven't yet.

I've been to Primal several times and after each visit I have an immediate and noticeable difference in my mobility. It is quite amazing actually. After an explanation of the problem a careful evaluation was made before treatment (which for me was dry needling). I have never had dry needling and while, depending on the location, can be a little uncomfortable, it is well worth it for the results. After the treatment, a follow up evaluation is performed to see/confirm the effects. I am gaining mobility I have lost over the years almost instantly. This is not only improving my athletic performance, but also improving my daily life (something as simple as more easily putting on my socks!). I highly recommend Primal Physical Therapy!

I was at wits end with a rotator cuff/elbow injury from a professional grappling match. JJ’s treatment, knowledge, and aftercare fixed me up faster than I could have possibly imagined. I owe a huge amount of my success in this sport to her and the whole Primal Physical Therapy team!
