Eric has a vast knowledge of how to alleviate pain with a variety of tools and methods. Every session helps with my chronic pain and I always have a better understanding of how to avoid triggering it. He has been a lifesaver, 5 stars!!!

Last year, in September 2020, I fell and injured myself. I was diagnosed with a concussion. IT CHANGED MY LIFE! Although I had heard the term concussion I knew nothing about it. Therefore, I did not know what to expect from this injury.

My symptoms began to get worse, and my life was turned upside down. Everything was different. The way I walked, the way I talked, the way I thought, my sleep pattern, the way I interacted with people, all was different than what I was accustomed to. It was a scary situation and very confusing because no one was giving me the right answers or helping me. That is until I began physical therapy and met Eric Deakins. When I began physical therapy I had very low self-esteem and thrive. The tears began to flow and I began telling him exactly how I didn't feel like myself. I was depressed, had daily crushing headaches, blurred vision, extreme bouts of dizziness and nausea. I FELT LIKE LITERALLY GIVING UP ON EVERYTHING! I had no hope of getting better.

From that moment on, Eric promised me that he would help me and that I would get better. Eric is truly a man of his word. He worked with me for two months. During that time he always made himself readily available for any questions or concerns I had. He explained what to expect, what to pay attention to, and what to do to better my situation.

I can write a book about Eric Deakin, and his expertise in not only concussions but also HUMANITY. He helped me to regain the ability to walk, talk, think, and how to regain positive relationships. He taught me to hope again, to love myself again, and most of all to smile again.

I am now back at work and in the process of starting a business.

Thank you, Eric.

I found Eric Deakins through a friend of mine who had seen a number of doctors and therapists and had given up on playing golf. He had not played golf for over a year until he saw Eric who had him playing golf in three months. When my doctor told me to see a therapist for my knee, I called my friend and asked for the name of the therapist who was able to get him playing golf again. I called Eric and explained to him about my knee and also told him about some back issues I was having. He worked on both of them through therapy and after the first couple of visits, I could feel a difference. In a couple of months, I was playing golf pain-free for the first time in over a year. I have told my friends about him and if they should ever need someone, I highly recommend Eric. Eric's knowledge and approach to therapy make you feel comfortable. Eric also sends you home with a number of exercises to help you as well. I know if I should ever need any therapy in the future, I will go to Eric. Now if he can only fix my golf game that would be great. LOL.

I've been an avid golfer for years and had to give it up for almost a year due to back pain. Visits to a chiropractor and two noted pain clinics during the year were not able to provide any relief or help. I was starting to think I might not ever golf again. Luckily, a friend who is an athletic trainer gave me Eric's name and I set up an appointment. After evaluation, Eric told me he could have me golfing in a few weeks with treatment and exercises. Eric is very knowledgeable and designed a personalized program for me based on my situation and goals. He was committed to getting me back on track in as little time as possible. I started therapy and followed his directions for home exercises to the T, and was soon able to start golfing again with no pain! Two years later, I'm still doing my exercises, and still golfing! Eric's help absolutely changed my life for the better by enabling me to once again enjoy my favorite sport and the great outdoors, as well as feeling much better overall. I'm very grateful that I made this connection, and highly recommend Eric! Thank you, Eric!

Dr. Eric Deakins has greatly helped improve my quality of life through physical therapy in amazing ways. When I had my first visit I was walking on a cane with a bad limp and a very stiff back. He has done dry needling on me and it has worked wonders! After just a few sessions I was back walking upright again and feeling so much better. He creates a positive atmosphere and it feels just like visiting a friend. Dr. Eric has made the healing process a really enjoyable experience.
