Hands On Physical Therapy

Alison was great in figuring out where my pain was and what I needed to do to take care of myself...with home exercises and no medication! The atmosphere here is stress-free and the office staff is very friendly! I highly recommend Hands-on PT!

This is the right place to find precious professionals. I was referred to Hands on Physical Therapy after a car accident that injured my lower back, mid back and neck. I recommend both Lena and Christine Keller. I had the pleasure to receive treatments from Lena right after my accident and she was amazing helping me and working with my car insurance. Unfortunately I had to interrupt the treatment to go to Brasil and had to restart physical therapy again later on. Every time I saw Lena I felt so much better! My pain level decreased tremendously with the use of her ultrasound machine to reduce the inflammation. Her sequence of exercises were all great and very effective. Lena is very kind, caring, skilled and professional. This last time I had to interrupt my sessions because she went to Sweden to visit family and continued with Christine Keller. Christine Keller is another precious physical therapist. She has a very wide and profound understanding of the mechanics of the body and uses many techniques to access, release and adjust. She was very helpful to make me more aware of the way I was breathing and using my lungs, diafragma, pelvis muscles. She is helping me a lot releasing the stress my body experienced along the years with this injury and has been working on my psoas, strengthening my pelvic floor and deep muscles, holding my overstretched ligaments and releasing my muscular spasms. I feel new every time I walk out of this place!

. First visit here, today. Feels pretty good.I like physical therapy. I'm sure I will recover soon. Alison Aldcroft  is the owner of HANDS-ON who worked with me.  She has good energy; power in her voice and her actions, and she is very funny.  The one-hour session went by very fast. After the session my leg felt very good. Also I didn't take any painkiller pills.!! After three months of constant pain, this was such a relief.  Basically, the first day was mostly counselling. Also, she gave me some stretching to do at home. Even though she didn't do massage or hands-on manipulation that day, my body is clearly changed. It was amazing! I will take physical therapy with Alison two times a week. Now, I have confidence I will recover from my leg pain.  If she will work with me, I believe my pain will be healed. If I will say complain, I have one. It's very difficult phone connection. All the time voice message, so if I need change my appointment time, it is very difficult...hopefully front desk phone system should be always possible to pick up phone from customers. Would be great!!オアフ島に戻って初めてのフィジカルセラピー。第一印象グッド!! 私はフィジカルセラピー受けるの好きなのできっと直ぐに回復するはずです!! オーナーのアリソンはパワフルで面白いので1時間のセッションもあっという間過ぎました。第一日目は直接のハンドワークではありませんでしたが其の夜は強い痛み止めを飲まずに済みました！彼女が教えてくれたストレッチをしただけなのに驚きました！！さぁこれから週2の割合でフィジカルセラピーを受けたこの憎き脚の痛みから一日も早く解放されたいと思います！( ´｀) handson #physicaltherapy #positive #recover #mylife #hawaiilife

I want to start with the good: Both Lina and Jolene , who treated me, are fantastic people. They treated me well and were extremely supportive and kind. They both have excellent bedside manner. They also referred me to a physician who was able to refer me to a,more appropriate physical therapist. I was looking for a specific type of physical therapy to continue care when I moved to town. I was told Hands On could do it.I had so many problems with their administrative staff, I almost gave up before I started. They didn't seem to understand my benefits, couldn't answer questions or give directions. On my first visit, I got lost and called hoping for help. I gave the woman on the phone the address where I was (just a few numbers off ) and her solution was to give me their address. I already had it , otherwise I wouldn't know I was close . I made appointments with Lina 2-3 x per week and while she was very nice, my pain only got worse. She finally admitted she was not able to do the specific work needed and referred me to Jolene, who has more experience. I had to cancel all the appointments I had scheduled and start over, but I was happy to be moving in the right direction . I signed a release and my former PT sent all my records , including what worked. They said " we don't do that. "Jolene was nice and personable, but focused on yoga poses rather than treating my myofascial scar tissue that was causing my pain .In the end, I wasted 3 months going to to PT that didn't even begin to address the cause of my pain. Fortunately, they referred me to a great physician who was able to help and refer me to an appropriate PT.This office has a shared bathroom and it was dirty EVERY time I came in .

Who likes to admit that they are anything less than youthful, strong, beautiful, and smarter than the next guy? Every now and then we are faced with the frailties of our humaness and must allow ourselves to be confronted with that cold bitter truth. After a minor injury recently I was sent for physical therapy. Asked by my doctor if I had a preference in companies I didn't hesitate. Hands On Therapy had helped me before and they were the best I had ever experienced. The name says it all, these PTs specialize in manual therapy...unlike many who put you on a machine and just walk away. Joleen, one of two Therapists specializing in my type of injury, was assigned to my case. And I couldn't have asked for a better Therapist; strict as a drill sergeant, knowledgeable as a wise sage, yet kind enough to laugh at all my jokes as well as my occasional whining...she didn't even remind me how unyouthful I was anymore. Just as mean, funny, and witty was other Physical Therapist Chantelle who took great care of me when there were schedule conflicts. Seriously, my team @ Hands On Therapy...THE BEST. It's obvious these women and men are passionate about their work. They get a big thumbs up from this greatful client!And thank you to Physical Therapist, Martin, who also took excellent care of me prior when I had injured my hip while mountain climbing... well, more like hill walking; Even if he did seem to insinuate my older age might have played a factor in my injury. I refuse to get old! The good people at Hands On Therapy will help you to get over your delusions...and physical limitations ! They might not make you any more beautiful or any less clumsy, tho they can make you a little smarter and stronger...Can't recommend them enough !!

Alison from Hands On is extremely knowledgeable and professional. It comes through from her work that she enjoys helping people get better. I found a big relief thanks to her knowledge and routines, If will I need any type of physical therapy in the future I know where to go.

I am a senior citizen and have been a martial artist for over 60 yrs. I've needed phys therapy from time to time due to injuries. So, I have had many phys therapists. Recently I was treated at Hands On. My therapist, Tim Waters, is a genuine genius. He is simply and without question the most awesome therapist I have ever had. I'm just so lucky I saw him. His techniques for dealing with phys issues are beyond compare. How he manages to be so precise and perfect is beyond my understanding, and I am a certified Physical Trainer and 2 times black belt. If you are in Honolulu and need PT, run dont walk to Tim Waters. You will be in the hands of Brilliance and Genius that will astound you and, best of all, you will get better. Guaranteed. Tim is also a phenomenal human being.

I saw Allison for five sessions and highly recommend her. Getting in and out was easy, treatments were explained and were helpful, insurance piece was well handled. Very good and Allison is highly personable and made me feel comfortable and safe!

Martin is an excellent PT and skillfully treated my shoulder. His care was professional, caring and he was invested in my well being. Highly recommend Hands On PT. Ivy, office manager, was sweet and helpful- a pleasure to get to know!

Alison Aidcroft is the best PT you could have. She really cares about her clients and the staff is great.From Patient FH
