The Method Performance and Physical Therapy, LLC

"Before working with Jaxie, I had been dealing with chronic and debilitating leg pain for 2+ years due to a combination of overuse, reactivating an old quad rupture, and a poor work from home setup. I felt like I had exhausted all of my options in an effort to manage my pain and return to exercise: physical therapy, shockwave therapy, acupuncture, cupping, trigger point injections, massage, and complete rest. Even after trying what felt like everything, I still couldn't find relief and was utterly defeated. When Jaxie's approach was described to me ("she's someone who loves taking on clients who have exhausted all of their options. Her strength is recognizing how everything is connected and figuring out the missing puzzle piece"), it resonated because I saw my experience and struggle in this description. Jaxie has completely lived up to this description. She has an exceptional and unparalleled understanding of how the musculoskeletal system works. Before working with Jaxie, even the most basic daily tasks (wearing shoes, driving, sitting on the couch to watch TV) produced pain. Through a self-directed, comprehensive strengthening program, Jaxie has gotten me to a place where I no longer navigate life with pain. More so, I am beginning to incorporate running and Pilates, things that feel integral to my identity, back into my routine. This truly felt impossible a few months ago. Another unique aspect of Jaxie's approach is her commitment to working with clients for ~45-60 minute sessions. So much of my healthcare experience has been rushed, transactional interactions with providers, but I feel cared for with Jaxie. The entire environment and culture of The Method is also unlike any healthcare experience I've had. The physical space cultivates a palpable sense of community; everyone there is collectively striving toward the common goal of achieving a pain-free, active lifestyle. I couldn't recommend Jaxie or The Method more! They changed my life!"

"This is my fourth PT relationship. Hands down, the Method team is in a league of its own. I love the combination of PT with functional and strength-related movement. My recovery from surgery related to a nasty injury is beyond complete, and I've gotten to a new level thanks to Rachael and the team there. If you're motivated to improve and recover, this is the place for you. Sean"

"Recently I started treatment at The Method on a strong recommendation by another top Boston based PT. I have really enjoyed working with Rachael - she gives each session her all! In a short time, she has taught me how to improve my core, pelvic and lower torso strength in many new and effective ways. I am really pleased with my progress because I am building strength and flexibility that makes me feel much healthier. The Method is the best of the best!"

"I've had various issues come up from training for a half marathon this fall, and chose The Method because of its small, female-owned, one on one vibe, and because they do dry needling which I think is the greatest muscle treatment ever. I've worked with Elyse for a month now, and all of my physical issues (pain with feet, calves, knees, hips) have been resolved, I am building strength which is making me a better runner, and because of this I am trusting my body more than ever. Running without pain, especially when I have a very specific goal, is priceless. I am leaving Boston in a few weeks, but will take everything I've learned and built with The Method with me as I train for future races. If you want to support your body in supporting you, go see these women!"

"Cannot say enough good things about Jaxie, Rachael and the entire Method team! I’ve had a long-standing back injury for the better part of a decade and thought the lingering pain was something I’d have to manage forever. I’ve been seeing Rachael once a month for almost a year and she has been the perfect combination of compassionate, knowledgeable and motivating! I just got married and spent my entire wedding day in heels, standing and dancing completely pain-free all thanks to her :)"
