The Movement Therapy Institute

"I saw Aracelly after struggling with ITBand pain. I am an avid runner and this pain left me unable to partake in my favoirte past-time, something which not only impacted my quality of life, but my mood and personal life. From the moment I met Aracelly she was knowledgeable, kind and personable. She listened to what I had to say, performed a thorough assessment and discussed goals with me. As a typical runner, I really was slacking in the strength department. Together we pinpointed areas to work on during our sessions and she gave me homework and exercises to work on at home. Now, over a year later, I still do my exercises at home and I am running stronger and smarter. I ran a 7 minute PR and negative split my marathon this fall and I feel like the sky is the limit. Please consider The Movement Therapy Institute for any of your PT needs."

"Dr.Feliz is a complete expert in her field, I am very thankful she is working in my area. She really goes beyond just the physical components of moving better and feeling better and out of pain, as she emphasizes on the mental side as well. I first had shin splints, the problem was caused by multiple factors, tight/weak hips, and lack of mobility in the lower body as well as a weak core and Dr.Feliz treated all the underlying problems. She is the best when it comes to making someone aware of their body and how their body operates, she gave me better insight into how my body works and what movements works and doesn’t work for which I think is priceless.she makes the sessions feel very exclusive, mimicking a professional athlete, and went in depth with all the root causes of my problems. Truly wish I can give more than 5 stars. 110% recommended, very fortunate I came across her."

"I would recommend Dr. Feliz to anyone looking for an elite professional to make their body and mind feel more comfortable and confident working towards your health, body, and recovery goals. Whether it’s the program, confidence, or even quick response to different obstacles she has it covered. She takes time even when you are not scheduled to make sure you are on track and positive about your plan. I couldn’t thank her more for what she’s done to bring back my confidence as an athlete. I just started working with Dr. Feliz this year on a nagging foot injury to which I saw countless specialist who only could recommend surgery or shots. Within weeks she had me on a plan with a very attainable goal and I saw instant improvement. Recently I injured my back and she was the first one I called and took time out of her schedule to get me on a plan to be ready for my next appointment with her and I am positive that we will get back to feeling 110% in no time"

"The care I received by Dr. Aracely Feliz is unmatched. I've tried a few other physical therapists in the South Florida area and she is by far the best. I experienced chronic pain due to sacroiliac joint dysfunction. For almost three years I couldn't stand, sit, walk, or lay down without pain. The activities I enjoyed before, longboarding and skating, were impossible to do and I saw my muscles atrophy on the affected side. I didn't just need someone to help me recuperate my body, I needed someone to help me recover my confidence and hope. Ara is a provider that adapts to what her patients need physically and emotionally. The combination of massage, mobility drills, and strength training that she put together for me, customized at each session, helped heal my body. And each time my body would try to guard itself in a movement and risk more injury, Ara was right next to me, or would text me, reminding me I am robust and capable. I have connected mind and muscle more in the three months we worked together than the previous 3 years. I went from being in pain about 95% of the time, to 15% of the time over 12 weeks and I'm still working on it. The support Ara gave me is, without doubt, the reason I was able to longboard today and find joy in my body and life again. Ara also did what no doctor did, which was validate that my pain was real and intense despite however it may appear on the outside. Ara has done more than get my body and mental health back to baseline, she gave me skills I can carry forward, and helped me create a better relationship with my body and chronic pain. She is 1/3 physical therapist, 1/3 mental therapist, and 1/3 angel. She's punctual, explains movement well, and set her patients up for success. Seriously, stop looking for another PT and just book her."

"I have been a patient at the MTI for several years. In my honest opinion there is no one better in the industry than Aracelly Feliz. She is the most knowledgeable, caring and supportive therapist one could ask for. She and her team have healed me from all of my sports and non-sports injuries over the years, and it goes beyond just the therapy sessions. She cares about each individual beyond the training room and workout floor. As I say, I hope to never see Ara and her team again, because that would mean I am healthy, but whenever needed, there is no one else I would ever think of going to for my PT needs. She is truly the best in the biz!"
