The 12 Things You Don’t Want To Hear Physical Therapists Say
1. “I just saw this technique on YouTube last night… figured I’d try it out on you!”
2. “Wow, I’ve never seen THAT before!”
3. “This might hurt a little…or a lot…”
4. “I THINK that’s normal?”
5.”I missed my workout this morning, so let’s make up for it right now.”
6. “That is NOT how that’s supposed to move.”
7. “EWWWWWWW!”
8. “According to Web M.D., your diagnosis is…”
9. “Ohhh, this must be that 1% of anatomical variation everyone’s always talking about!”
10. “It’s really a shame we didn’t detect this earlier…”
11. “Hmm. Well. What do YOU think?”

Dr. Jake Berman
After graduating from the University of Florida, Dr. Jake Berman, PT, DPT sought out mentorship first from Bob Seton in Destin, FL and then from Aaron Robles in Jacksonville, FL. Both of these mentors have 20+ years of experience helping people keep active and mobile so they can enjoy high quality active lifestyles. What Jake found was that back pain was by far the most debilitating pain and the highest factor leading to decreased physical activity later in life.
These experiences are what inspired Jake to specialize in helping people aged 50+ keep active, mobile and pain free despite the aging process. There is nothing more rewarding than being able to alleviate somebody’s back pain so that they can get back to living their best life- especially in Naples! Over the years of helping 100’s of people aged 65-75 become stronger and pain free, one thing for sure has become apparent: “he who rests rots”.
Jake is a firm believer that we become stiff then old, not old then stiff. Seriously, think about it...
