I am running again with little to no pain!
Dr. Machado is personable, knowledgeable, professional and operates with an elite level of care. When I started working with him, I was recovering from achilles surgery and couldn’t even walk. During our time together, we progressed in my recovery to the point where I’m running again with little to no pain. He showed me an immense number of exercises that I can do at home or at the gym on my own to accelerate my recovery and build my strength back.

Can I continue seeing a therapist even when I feel better?
The short answer is–Absolutely! In fact, at Aurelio Performance Physical Therapy, we actually encourage you to continue seeing your physical therapist even after your symptoms appear to have resolved.
Why? Because often, even though you feel better, you may still not be fully rehabilitated. Furthermore, regular physical therapy can prevent future injury or pain while helping you optimize your overall physical performance and function.
Physical therapy is a comprehensive and ongoing process, not a one-and-done. Even after you’ve completed your initial round of treatment, our therapists can help you develop a personalized maintenance plan that ensures you’re continuing to maximize your potential, even after your recovery.
Here’s an example of maintenance plans that allow you to continue enjoying physical therapy’s many benefits:
- Your therapist assigns you a series of specialized at-home exercises so you can continue to strengthen your muscles and improve your range of motion.
- You come in for a re-evaluation after a month to ensure your home exercise program is working as intended.
- You schedule check-in appointments at regular intervals (such as every six months) to ensure you haven’t regressed and to address any new developments.
Our therapists will also develop a return-to-activity schedule so you can safely return to your favorite sport or workout program without risking reinjury. A return-to-activity schedule involves gradually increasing the intensity of certain movements until you can operate as usual.
The physical therapists at Aurelio Performance Physical Therapy are here to help you succeed–even after you’ve completed your treatment. To get started, request an appointment today!
Can I choose any physical therapy clinic for treatment?
Absolutely!
The Patient's Bill of Rights empowers you to select the physical therapy clinic of your choice. You are not obligated to follow a physician's recommendation; no medical practitioner, insurance company, or other entity can force you to attend a specific clinic.
We provide a proactive, results-oriented environment with well-trained, knowledgeable staff. We’re confident that Aurelio Performance Physical Therapy will provide the highest quality care to help you achieve your goals.
Can I go to any physical therapy clinic I want?
Absolutely! According to "The Patient's Bill of Rights" law, you can choose what physical therapy clinic you want for your care. While physicians or insurance carriers may recommend a specific clinic, you are not obligated to follow their suggestions. Your fundamental patient rights protect your ability to make informed decisions about your treatment and ensure you are treated with respect and confidentiality.
