Adapt Performance and Rehab

What a Godsend Adapt has been for me. I've had only three sessions with Dr. Patel and cannot believe the difference she's made in my pain levels. Pain that I have been dealing with FOR YEARS AND YEARS. I'm already considering making Adapt a part of my healthy lifestyle along with my gym membership and personal trainer! More...

My sports med doc sent me to Dr Patel to fix muscle imbalances that impact my running firm and are perpetuating injuries. Working with Dr Patel is very different from the regular physical therapy in that she is with only me for the full hour focusing on the smallest detail of how I’m doing the exercises she’s given me . I understand how she’s earned the trust of my sports doc, as he’s a very serious triathlete himself, very focused on the technical aspects of performance. She’s giving me a whole new sense of purpose and confidence that the hard work I’m doing will help me to achieve my goals. More...

The best rehab experience I’ve ever had (and I’ve had plenty). I’m a 48-year old life-long athlete who came to Adapt to address increasing knee pain from ACL surgery 15 years ago. Dr. Payal proved to be extremely knowledgeable and traced my issues beyond my knee surgery and back to college soccer ankle injuries. Between the exercises and Dr. Payal’s massage and cup therapy, I began to feel relief - as well as additional stability - almost immediately. Additionally, Dr. Payal helped me work out alignment issues I had developed as a result of coping with my knee pain for so long. I feel like I’m (physically) five years younger as a result of Dr. Payal’s therapy. I cannot recommend Dr. Payal and Adapt Rehab enthusiastically enough. More...

The only downside to this place is that I don't live closer to it and can't make it here often. But Payal and Cody are incredible at what they do and I can't recommend them enough. I'm an athlete training for American Ninja Warrior and recently suffered a shoulder injury and wasn't sure how to fix the problem. More specifically, I developed bicep tendinitis and rotator cuff tendinitis. I had already been to sports medicine doctor whose only suggestion was a steroid shot and was quite frankly a waste of time, so by the time I got to Payal I was frustrated and at a loss for what to do. I had gone from lifting 30lb dumbbells to being in pain with a 2lb dumbbell and hanging on obstacles or doing anything else ninja-related was completely out of the question. In one consultation and one session, Payal was able to jump-start my recovery through several recovery techniques and exercises in addition to providing me with a ton of education. She was patient in answering my questions, explaining the plan and most importantly, why she was doing what she was doing. She is a big part of the reason I'm back to training full time and feeling stronger than ever. I also now have more confidence that I can prevent future injury. More...

Until Adapt Performance and Rehab I hadn't found any physical therapist that was worth my time. I'd been ignoring a few injuries for around 4 years and just working around them simply because I had been to orthopedics and other physical therapists that were a complete waste. Ignoring these issues for so many years Dr. Payal was completely up-front and provided realistic expectations of the length of treatment but more importantly, there was a real "end date" as well as criteria we could use to measure our success as we went along. In all my visits with other professionals, this had never happened before. Investing in becoming pain free and able to return to consistent exercise has been one of the best choices I've made for my long term health and wellness. The treatment and personalized care that I've received from Adapt has been exceptional. If you're in need of care, and especially if you've been let down by other doctors or therapists in the area, you should make an appointment as soon as possible, there's no reason to accept being in pain.

I can’t say enough good things about Adapt Performance and Rehab and how they helped me get back to competing in weightlifting. When I met Dr. Payal, I was in the end stages of recovering from a torn labrum in my right hip, and was dealing with some problems in my rotator cuff and my knee because I had been trying to “train around” my hip. On my first assessment, Dr. Payal came up with a recovery plan to get me back to my sport in better shape and completely healthy. Through both hands on treatment, and a variety of exercises to specifically work on my individual issues, we were able to stay on plan and get me back to being pain free. I still use most of the exercises she prescribed to me on a daily basis as part of my warm up, and five months later, I’ve not only gotten back to my previous levels, but I have exceeded them.If you have an injury, or are experiencing pain, this is the place to come to. Dr. Payal is the best in her field, and she will help you get back to doing what you love. More...

After months of trying everything I could to make the pain dissipate, I almost could not believe how effective this was. Now we are working to get me back to the shape I was before my injuries. Not only has this been a huge help to getting back to my fitness goals, but it’s been an enjoyable process. Payal takes a genuine interest in helping her clients, and felt like a friend after our first meeting. She’s been flexible with my extremely difficult schedule, and goes out of her way to help in any way she can. More...

I have nothing but great things to say about Adapt Performance. Dr. Payal and Cody developed a training program to relieve my son's knee pain associated with Osgood-Schlatter. His added strength and flexibility were major reasons for a successful and pain-free lacrosse and basketball seasons. As for me, Dr. Payal diagnosed issues with my hips that was ultimately causing leg and lower back pain. Being a frequent runner and in my mid-forties, I assumed it was just normal wear and tear. After a couple of months rehabbing, I have been running pain free for the first time in years. I highly recommend Adapt Performance for anyone who wants to resolve their nagging injuries. More...

I have had a lot of experience with a variety of different gyms and physical therapists, and I can say by far my best experience has been with Adapt. Physical therapy for my ankle injury was amazing.

On the training side, Cody and Kris are some of the most understanding trainers I have ever had.

Hands down the best physical therapy I have ever had. Adapt performance isn't your run of the mill physical therapy. Dr. Payal doesn't just give you simple exercises to sort out your injury, then advise that you avoid movements or activities that caused the pain in the first place. She goes to the source of the issue weather it be a muscular imbalace, structural issue, movement issue...ect and teaches you how to correct the problem so you will never have the issue again. I can't express enough how amazing the work they do is!!! More...

I've been coming here for physical therapy with Payal for about a year and I'd strongly recommend it to anyone looking to rehabilitate (or "prehabilitate") an injury. Personally, I came here primarily to rehab an ankle sprain and preemptively address some shoulder pain. Payal and Cody are both very knowledgeable and committed to getting you to 100%. The fact that they are both athletes themselves is nice since they avoid giving you instructions like "do not workout for the next 2 weeks" (unless it is absolutely necessary). I think that coming here has been benefitting both present-me and future-me. More...

I've had chance to work with both Payal and Cody when I came in about 5 months ago with a re-injured hip labral tear. My injury wasn't going to go away without surgery and I wanted to continue to play my sport at a high level without going that route. Payal was able to explain to me exactly what about my lifestyle and the injury itself that was causing the pain and re-injury, and take me through various exercises to help realign, stabilize and strengthen my hip even with the tear still there. I was feeling much better after only a few sessions and then transitioned into a personalized strength training program. I've now been going for several months to strengthen that area so I can continue to play at a high level multiple times a week without any more pain. The results have been incredible and I have been playing better than ever! I highly recommend Adapt for high level athletes who need solutions for active lifestyles that can't be sidelined by injuries. More...

Do a pull up3. Catch a Giant Blue Fin Tina (I'm going on a fish trip Summer 2018 to Canada and I knew I had to get stronger)Cody was more than up for the challenge! He slowly introduced me back into weightlifting by focusing on simple exercises, on my form, doing movements properly, and adjusting and modifying when we needed to. He understands that every day of every week I can't go as hard as I want to. When those days happen, he is always willing to adjust my program. He always says rather have a client come in and do something, than nothing at all. I love that mentality!I have been pain free for the past 6 months, still working towards that pull up, and more than confident that I can reel in that GBF Tuna this August!!! More...

A couple of years ago, i injured my back doing squats and later injured my glute doing weighted lunges. Even after resting, trying a chiropractor, and going to a different PT, I wasn't back to 100%. I improved a little bit, but I was unable to do yoga or run for a long time without pain, and had started to resign myself to the idea of reducing my activity level as day-to-day activities were beginning to hurt. This was devastating to me as a fairly active person, so I decided to try PT again when I moved to NJ. When I was searching for a PT, I was looking for two things: (1) someone specializing in back pain because I had scoliosis and (2) someone who was focused on performance rehab and getting me back to the fun activities I love. And that's where Adapt came in and Dr. Payal Patel did not disappoint. She worked with me to increase the stability and strength in my back and core for my back pain and also worked with me to increase my stability and mobility in my hips and glutes for my glute pain. I've gone from pain every day to almost none and I am getting better every day. She worked with me on both injuries and would focus on one or the other depending on how I was feeling. Dr. Patel explained why were doing each exercise which has allowed me to continue to get stronger on my own. I know what exercises I should be doing if I ever feel a little unstable and I am needing the exercises less and less each day. This is particularly great because she makes you take ownership of your own health and you don't feel like she is making you sign up for unnecessary sessions. I'm now able to run interval sprints without pain and before I was barely able to walk or sit for a long period of time without pain.PT itself was super enjoyable. Dr. Patel spends the full hour with you which is great and much different than other PTs I've been to. Payal and Cody are super fun and nice and are great to chat with during therapy. They also have great hours and was flexible with my crazy work schedule. I would refer everyone and anyone to Payal (and Cody) if you have something you want to work on or feel like something just isn't right in your body. They are so knowledgeable about how to get you the strongest and healthiest you've ever been. More...

I came across Adapt Performance in one of my social media accounts one night. It sounded great by their advertisement, but it did not do the establishment any justice! It was the best experience I’ve had working out. I’m 35, a mom of two far apart in age. The baby weight from the second one has been a real struggle. I had been working out, trying to maintain my diet, but it wasn’t enough. I wasn’t challenging myself and I didn’t know how to. I didn’t know exercises that would give me the biggest bang for my buck. Going to Adapt was the best thing I’ve done for myself. The entire team there is beyond awesome, patient, encouraging, but tough too. They know your individual potential even if you don’t, but they help you get to the point to see it in yourself. The class sizes are really small (like 5 other people there besides you and everyone going is there for different reasons) and it’s like having a personal trainer. I was really intimidated by the trap bar and kettle bells, but now I’m not. Load on the weight! LOL but in all seriousness I wish everyone would experience for themselves what they have to offer. It’s the most comfortable environment, no judgement, you learn a lot, and you’re getting fit. They take into account any injuries or weak areas to rehab them and strengthen them to get you back to even better overall performance. I witnessed all ages, all performance levels (beginners to serious athletes), all with separate needs and all of which were being met by the professionals at Adapt. I’m so grateful to them all!

Being an athlete has been part of my life since I was little. From softball, basketball, and tennis to running marathons and completing triathlons and everything in between, I’ve put my body through a lot. After running the NYC marathon in 2015, my hips haven’t felt the same. I thought my running days were over. A simple 5k or 10k left me sore for days and getting up from sitting cross legged on the ground left me limping in pain. I’ve seen some sports doctors who gave me cortisone shots for a “quick fix” and prescribed relatively ineffective stretches or exercises to gain mobility back in my hips, but nothing ever felt “right”. A few weeks ago, I found Adapt Performance and Rehab and they have changed the way I view running and helped me learn how my body should really feel during it. During the first session, Dr. Patel was able to identify the source of my pain (which was incorrectly identified by other doctors), introduced me to exercises and stretches that target the problem areas and help me to set goals along the way. Within days, my pain has subsided and I’m ready to get back to what I love! I highly recommend Adapt to any athlete of any level or to anyone who may not be getting the results they want from physical therapy or other fitness programs. Your consultation is free and the way you feel after your first session is invaluable! More...
