Who would have thought I’d be happy to pay money in order to experience pain? I must be a masochist. All joking aside, I can highly recomend Hands On Care for your shoulder, elbow and hand therapy. Saba Kamal is an exceptionally talented therapist. After my nasty moutain bike accident, she had me back in the saddle again within a few short weeks. This was all the more remarkable considering I had virtually zero motion in my elbow and wrist three weeks ago. She’ll bend parts of your body into positions that will make a grown man cry… but thankfully she does know when to stop. Her little evil grins while telling you to “relax” always had me cracking up in laughter. When it comes to physio, she was the best of both worlds… approachable but firm.

The previous reviewer baked Saba a cake. Unfortunately, I have no baking skills, so she will just have to make do with my four star rating and this last little comment …

(I lied about the bike… I had the resistance set to level 8 – not level 4)

Saba Kamal is a fantastic physical therapist. I am a musician who had radial tunnel release surgery performed by Dr. Gordon Brody with whom she works closely. Saba is knowledgeable, supportive, and extremely patient. I believe in her so much that I commuted nearly three hours several times a week to see her. An absolute pleasure to work with and should I have a future injury, I will look nowhere else but to Hands on Care!
