 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Aarathi is an exceptional Concierge Pediatric Physical therapist. She helped us with our daughter’s delayed walking. From our very first session, Aarathi put both our daughter and our family completely at ease — and the convenience of having her come directly to our home made the entire experience so much smoother for our toddler. Aarathi’s approach was nothing short of exceptional. She was patient, encouraging, and incredibly skilled at making every session feel engaging and fun — which, as any parent knows, is no small feat with a young child. She took the time to explain each exercise, the reasoning behind it, and what we should be reinforcing at home between sessions. Her guidance was clear and practical, and having sessions in a familiar home environment helped our daughter feel comfortable and confident from the start. What truly set Aarathi apart was how she connected with our daughter. She genuinely looked forward to her sessions, and that trust made all the difference in her progress. If your child needs pediatric physical therapy, I cannot recommend Aarathi enough. We are so grateful. 🙏

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Aarathi Srinivasan  is an excellent physical therapist. I highly recommend her because I’ve seen her work with two different families with children who have different needs. She is very professional, and her wonderful character helps each child make great progress. Each child has specific goals, and she has a clear purpose to help them achieve meaningful advances.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Here I would like to write a review of my son’s PT with Dr Aarathi. She has a lots of ideas to help baby to reach their milestones. She helps my son from sitting to walking. If one therapy is not working she apply lots of other plans. Actually she is not doing therapy but she plays with child and help them to reach their goals. She is good with nature too so we can tell her easily if we have any problem or confusion for baby related to her field. In my case without her efforts it was very hard for my baby to reach his milestone. She gave her 100% efforts to help me.Thank you so much for your help Aarathi ma’am.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked with Dr. Aarathi for about a year for my two young adult sons who have overall low muscle tone/IDD, and the progress they made in strength, mobility, and confidence was incredible. She introduced weight work in a safe and effective way that made a real difference. She was the perfect balance of patient and firm, always joyful and motivating. My sons genuinely looked forward to their sessions. Her communication with me was clear and consistent, and she was truly dedicated to their success. We are so grateful for the impact she had and would highly recommend her to any family needing pediatric physical therapy.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My son had torticollis and needed physical therapy as a part of his treatment plan. Aarathi worked with him from 6 weeks old until he was about 8 months old to make sure his neck mobility improved and he didn’t fall behind in his milestones. We absolutely loved working with Aarathi and would recommend her to anyone in need of a great PT! Update: Adding to this post because my daughter also found herself in need of physical therapy after many bouts of daycare illness left her behind in her gross motor skill progression. My son and daughter are very different individuals with different personalities and motivators. Despite this, Aarathi figured my daughter out in no time and quickly got her caught up to where she needed to be with her movement progression. Again, I highly recommend!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had some issues with my left leg starting from my hip all the way to my knees. My symptoms became diversified and was not localized. Aarthi was kind enough to help me over a phone call on a Sunday evening and she suggested me some excercises and stretches over a video session that which immensely helped me to get instant relief. On continuation of the same, my problems went away. It was very timely for me to get ready for a family vacation that involved a 8 hour plus car drive. I have had many Chiripractor appointments over the years here in the US, this is at the very top of my experience in terms of relief and getting the issue resolved. Now I know where I should go for all my therapy and wellness needs. Big Thanks!
