Patrick is trained in the [specific] method, which was recommended to me by physical medicine. He was thorough, patient and really was able to change my therapy depending on my progress. He restored me to my previous life within 2 months of therapy. I am grateful. Easy going personality, listened carefully to what I had to say as well. Cannot recommend enough

Patrick listens well and responds accordingly. He identified some exercises and stretches that provided an immediate reduction to some of the pain I was experiencing.

He has done excellent work. I feel little to no pain as my therapy sessions are coming to an end. The work he has done has actually fixed my back issues to where I feel they are nonexistent. My posture has improved, the big knot nerves I once felt cripple me with pain are not there anymore, this man is a miracle worker as well considering the level of my recovery. I am very very happy with the results and my recovery, and that’s all thanks to Patrick Nielsen. I am more than happy to recommend Northwestern Medicine along with my recovery story.

This was my first session with Patrick. He was very professional and explained his approach to my therapy for my back pain. He responded when I expressed an increase in pain through some of the exercises. I was pleased when several of the exercises didn't exacerbate the pain. I look forward to investigating how his method and approach can help less my extreme back pain.

When I relate and indicate the difficulty I have with movement and pain, the therapy workout stretches the muscle in the area that eases the pain.
