Helen Kim, DPT PLLC Physical Therapy

Have lived with chronic hip and back pain for nearly 7 years when I met Dr. Kim. She identified this as instability due to underdeveloped pelvic floor and chronic spasms in the back. Through meticulous guidance and easy to complete exercises at home, I am starting to experience pain-free days. I cannot recommend Dr. Kim highly enough.

Dr. Kim has been instrumental in my recovery for pelvic floor pain as well as chronic head and neck pain. She is extremely knowledgeable, innovative and thorough in her treatments and explanations. She was able to connect my various different issues and treat my body holistically. I’ve recommended her to several friends and colleagues, and would see her again if the need arises. She is excellent.

I feel so fortunate to have found Helen! She is the best PT I have ever worked with (and I have had many over the years). I came to Helen with profound weakness and chronic pain following major spine surgery. I had months of PT before I started seeing Helen and had stalled completely in my progress. Helen was able to locate the problems affecting my spine and address them in a truly holistic way. Her skill and professionalism have led to deep healing, for which I am deeply grateful!

The true definition of a skilled miracle worker. With a focus on retraining bad habits and long term maintenance, Dr Kim has given me tools to live a pain free life. If you put in the work, you will progress, you will graduate, and you will be pain free. Can’t recommend her enough!

I worked with Helen on a range of issues that came up during the second trimester of my pregnancy, including pelvic bone, lower back, and neck pain. I really appreciated the cleanliness and privacy of the space - both of which are very important to me. Getting one-on-one attention in these sessions was great - I especially liked the targeted bodywork, and that Helen gave me exercises I could use at home to continue working on different trouble spots (including stretches and strength-training moves). She always explained how to properly perform the various exercises and made sure that I could do them properly before sending me home to do them on my own. Helen also gave me advice on how to modify my yoga practice given the issues I was having, and generally instructed me to modify different postures to protect my body during pregnancy. We also reviewed several props I could use to help my body as it continues to grow into the third trimester. I enjoyed working with Helen - she is a very knowledgeable and friendly PT!!
