Method—Ryan in particular—is fantastic! Great program, great customer service, and an all-around great experience.
The Method Athletics team are fantastic! My daughter had a fractured vertebrae and thought her cheer season was over. After 9 weeks of PT, she has no back pain and is fully back participating with her team. Highly recommend everyone at Method!
Method athletics has been wonderful for my son coming back from a shoulder injury. He’s pain free and stronger than ever. My son is now doing the sport’s performance program twice a week and loves it. I strongly recommend method.
All the Method Staff are amazing! They strengthened our children and taught them how to stretch to avoid future injuries. Method has been so kind and understanding, and we are forever thankful for them.
