  • "Dr. Howard is a lifesaver! After being in chronic, soul-breaking pain for 10 years, and too many orthopedic doctors to count, he analyzed my pain on the first visit and put me on a course to being more pain-free every week. From the very first visit, my body started feeling better!"

  • “Dr. Howard has a gift. It’s as if he can see a part of you that is already fully healed and then work with you to get in touch with that part."

  • "Daniel was so wonderful to work with when I completely wrecked my back. It helped that he had experiences with back pain too, so I felt like he really knew where I was coming from."

  • "As a fellow health care provider, I can’t speak highly enough of Daniel’s compassionate approach to assessment and client-centered care planning."

  • "Danny's expertise is found not only in his medical knowledge, but his ability to look at a person holistically."

  • “Danny's help was exemplary. He is a very engaged listener. He doesn't view clients as ‘one size fits all’.”

  • "Not only did he set me on the right path for recovery, but working with him expanded my understanding about integrative medicine, the nervous system, and principles that will have me healthy for the long run."

  • "I've worked with other PTs, but Danny is unmatched in his ability to listen, empathize, treat, and motivate people to recover from injury and live pain free. I highly recommend him!"

  • "With Daniel’s guidance and development of a strength training plan I PR’d in the marathon last year. "

  • "He's very knowledgeable and doesn't just focus on fixing the immediate issue - he's interested in the whole person and wants to help you work towards your overall health, which is a rarity in my experience!"

  • "He was so patient and encouraging and was able to diagnose the issue immediately. He put together a recovery plan for me and followed up to make sure everything was going okay. Happy to report that I am back to running with no pain!"

  • "Danny’s approach to care is rooted in a deep desire to help his patients lead full lives. He’s an active listener, creative in adapting his care to the needs of each individual, and clear in his explanation of the physiology of the body. And it works!"
