“Steven helped me with a recurring back injury and was able to provide guidance, support, and information to help me recover. I went from being afraid to lift weights again to having confidence and breaking personal bests by 20+ lbs in only a few months. He catered his services to my needs and is respectful, professional, kind, and skilled.”

Steve is without a doubt, the one you should hire. I was skeptical when I first met him at a fitness event. We had a great conversation. I signed up for a full evaluation so at least I had information I wanted. His professionalism, wide breadth of knowledge in many areas, his warmth and enthusiasm is why I hired him instantly. I have been working with him for months now. Steve holds me accountable, keeps me on track with my goals, encourages me during my setbacks and communicates regularly so I stay the course. I’ve seen huge improvements and growth in a short amount of time. I feel privileged to be his client and I hope more people take advantage of his skills. Plus he’s an incredible human and we need more of those in our lives. Hire him!!

I came to Steven back in February with some pretty severe neck pain desperate for relief, it got to the point where I was very limited to be able to do things I enjoyed. Pain was disrupting my sleep, I was unable to workout, and had constant pain. I was seeing the chiropractor and a massage therapist once a week
I have nothing but great things to say about Steven! We initially met and he did a 90 min intake/assessment. He really took his time and listened. I was given exercises to do and we checked in weekly. I am 100% pain free now and back to normal activities.
One thing that I did love most about Steven’s approach was that he focuses on athletes and people who enjoy being in the gym. We went over exercises that I couldn’t do because they would cause pain, he showed me variations and created a workout plan for me to train! No other physical therapist I’ve seen had done that before. He is very dedicated and passionate about his work. I would 10/10 recommend him to anyone!

I've been working with Steven for about 5 months and I could not be more pleased with my progress so far. Ever since my back surgery several years ago, I've struggled to load my squat and deadlift because if it got too heavy, I would start having pain again. I was nervous about the idea of pushing it, but really wanted to be stronger overall. Steven helped me adjust my form and my load, and now I am stronger than I've ever been and don't have back pain with heavy lifts anymore! He has so much valuable knowledge about injury rehab and exercise programming, is always quick to respond to any questions or concerns I have, and is always an awesome cheerleader when I succeed. If you have an injury history that has prevented you from exercising, or just want to get in better shape and reach your strength goals, Dobson Strength Rehab and Performance is the very best choice!

I was struggling with shoulder discomfort and pain in every day life but especially lifting. I wasn’t able to sleep on my left shoulder and I couldn’t bench or do any overhead movements without pain that would last at least the rest of the day but sometimes longer. I didn’t think it was going to be an easy fix and thought I would have to stop lifting for awhile to get it to heal. Steven was able to access some potential issues and work on stretching and strengthening the shoulder. We adapted range of motion and worked in what I was able to do. Within a couple weeks I was able to sleep on that shoulder and lift without pain. I still had mild discomfort but nothing compared to what it was. I definitely noticed a difference not doing my stretches/strengthening exercises throughout the week. Steven worked on keeping the exercises quick as to not make my workouts too long. We were able to pivot to focus on my back (issue that came up after the shoulder started getting better). I would highly recommend to work with Steven, especially if you have ever been told you would have to give up lifting for your injury to heal.

Steven is awesome!! I came to him just a few weeks before a powerlifting meet because I was having shoulder troubles and nerve pain down my leg and foot. He helped me navigate through the shoulder problems so that I could still compete and with less pain. We continued to work on shoulder weaknesses and mobility and he helped with the nerve pain too! As an athlete himself, he understands the challenges and the deadlines of competition, and I found that to be refreshing. He also has a great way of listening and really trying to understand how his clients are feeling- pain, discomfort, stress levels, etc. Highly recommend!
