I went to see Josh for dry needling after a major spine surgery to help with some stiffness and discomfort. The benefits of increased blood flow and mobility are really important for my continued recovery.  I highly recommend Josh at Side Street Physical Therapy for dry needling!

I have had pain in my neck and shoulders due to a herniated disc.  Dry needling has given me relief from the pain.  I have gone in about once a month when I felt an increase in pain, but the needling has helped keep it to a minimum.

I am a lifelong runner with 2 knee surgeries...thus far! I have known Josh for many years and was very pleased when he offered dry needling as an option for my ongoing knee discomfort. I have found the technique to be very helpful in alleviating both pain and swelling. I recommend Josh and his services highly!

I went to go see Josh for an elbow issue of two years. Two treatments later and pain has resolved. I’m a big fan of dry needling.

Josh is such and amazing physical therapist and his dry needling has been instrumental in reducing pain for some hip and back pain that I have been experiencing. In addition to the dry needling techniques he also alway gives me tips on stretches to also use to help alleviate my pain. If you are experiencing pain please give this technique a try.

I am so grateful to have found relief from my IT band pain from Side Street Physical Therapy!! As a PT myself, I knew that I wanted someone that was knowledgeable and professional. Josh Whitney did a fantastic job and if my pain returns, I know where to go! I highly recommend him!

Josh is an amazing therapist.  I've had sciatic and psoas pain for a long time and went to Side Street this past winter. The dry needling provided immediate (and almost complete) relief for the psoas pain.  He did dry needling with electrolysis for the back, which is a more chronic condition.  The pain relief was more gradual but that combined with the increased mobility was a game changer.  I really appreciated the time we took during the evaluation to educate me on both the bio-mechanics of why I was experiencing pain and how the needling would help.  I highly recommend Josh and Side Street! It made such a difference with my pain.

I herniated a disc in my lower back and was in severe pain with very limited mobility. Through Josh’s incredible work, he helped me navigate the injury and empowered me to recover naturally.

My experience at Side Street Therapy has been nothing short of transformative. I don't make the statement lightly—this therapy has genuinely helped me regain mobility and alleviate pain in ways I didn't think possible.

From the first session, I felt a significant difference. The therapist's expertise in addressing multiple issues related to my back and spine has been remarkable. Specifically, the dry needling treatment on my neck has proven incredibly effective. It has not only relieved the tightness and tension I’ve been experiencing but has also significantly diminished the pain, delaying the need for surgery.

In addition to addressing my neck issues, I appreciate how the therapist successfully helped me recover from a torn rotator cuff without the need for surgical intervention. His approach has always leaned towards less invasive options, which I highly value.

I wholeheartedly recommend Side Street Therapy to anyone struggling with pain or tension. The level of care and commitment to finding effective solutions is unparalleled. I wouldn’t let any of my friends or family consider another place for therapy. Thank you for helping me feel like myself again!

Josh does amazing work and I can definitely recommend him for dry needling therapy! As a former soccer player, I deal with chronic knee, hip and consequently back pain. I have had several knee surgeries along with emergency back surgery. After a year following the back surgery, I still had some residual pain that kept me from certain activities and compromised my sleep. Josh took his time and listened. He targeted those troublesome areas and provided some much needed relief. If you have never tried dry needling, I highly recommend it for pain relief!

I can definitely recommend Josh for dry needling therapy!  I have chronic neck pain and headaches that leave me with stiff, sore muscles. Josh was able to help me gain some much needed relief.  He took the time to listen to me and targeted the exact area that was bothering me.  If you have never tried dry needling, I highly recommend it for pain relief!

Josh does AMAZING work! As a competitive weightlifter I’ve run across some nagging injuries… elbow pain, low back pain, and upper back/neck pain. After trying several different types of injury relief, I spoke to Josh who told me he knew exactly how to fix my problem.

Josh’s dry needling expertise has provided me with pain free training for years now! If you have a nagging injury, that just won’t heal or nagging pain that won’t go away… go see Josh!

And I PROMISE you… even if you’re afraid of needles… you won’t even know you’re being poked. Josh is a magician! If you hesitate to see him, you are surviving ONE more day with pain you shouldn’t have anymore!

Josh is amazing.  He explains the entire process along the way and never tired of all my questions.

I never tried dry needling until I had a pinched nerve in my shoulder.  I was amazed at the quick results.  It saved my summer vacation. 

Then when I pulled a tendon in my arm and was in a lot of pain, I called Josh again.  I hurt every time I used my hand or arm.  After a session with Josh, the pain was bearable. 

I definitely recommend Side Street Physical Therapy.

Josh helped my son who was having back pain. He helped to alleviate the tightness and pain in his back enabling my son to participate and win his regional track championship. Cannot recommend enough.

I had been struggling with knee pain that was at times almost debilitating for nearly a year. I had two dry needling procedures with Josh and the pain was significantly reduced! I couldn't believe it. I went from being a skeptic to a true believer in dry needling!!
Josh also gave me exercises to work on to strengthen my muscles and they've been so helpful! I'd recommend this to anyone who's experiencing constant pain and having trouble findings relief!!
