Motive Sports & Physical Therapy

My experience with Motive Physical Therapy has been nothing short of incredible. From the first point of contact with Kristen to my therapists first Mike and now Tyler every one of needs have Ben painstakingly addressed and professionally attended to. I know I am in good “hands” pun intended.
Thank you for your wonderful care.

I have gone to PT off and on for 20 years and they have done more for me in 7 months than any other therapists I went to for longer. My therapist there Mike C really cared for my health and well-being. I have a more difficult case than usual and have had a lot of complications. Mike was patient (no pun intended) and came up with new plans every time it was needed. He is the best physical therapist I have ever had and I cannot imagine going to anyone else. He pushed me to limits that I didn’t even know were possible. He is tough and pushes you to be your best which i couldn’t be more thankful for. No matter who your therapist is though, Motive is a great and supportive atmosphere to be in and I highly recommend!

Motive was recommended to us last year when my son wanted to get in better shape. We wanted trainers who could teach him proper technique to avoid injury. Who better to train him than a physical therapist and his highly knowledgeable fitness trainer brother! Our son has seen tremendous gains through weight lifting and agility work at Motive. Mark is always ready and willing to assess any injuries he (and our family) suffer, and is so thorough before formulating a rehab plan. Mark and Paul are both so generous with their time and always prioritize community outreach. We are happy to recommend Motive and give them a 5 star review!

Motive Sport & Physical Therapy is the best place for recovering athletes! I personally have been to multiple physical therapy offices and they do not compare to the great treatment your receive at Motive Sport. All of the physical therapists are amazing! I worked with Mark and he was the best! He helped me recover from my quad strain and helped get me stronger from my past 2 ACL reconstructions. Mark is so personable and really cares about the outcome of his patients. I 100% recommend Motive Sports!!!

I severely sprained my ankle last year and chose Motive Sports & Physical Therapy for my place to do PT (first time doing PT for me by the way). Part of the reason I chose Motive was it is close to my home but also because of a Google review that said this was the first PT place they went to that made them sweat. That might not sound appealing to everyone, but I’m a very active person and I had a lot of activities I wanted to get back to as soon as possible so that was music to my ears. And the reviewer was right, but what is great is that it doesn’t mean they are overly aggressive at your treatment either. When I started out working with John right after my injury he had me do very little, and I now see that was all I should be doing because my body was in the early stages of healing. As I healed and got stronger John and Mark both definitely did get me moving and made me sweat, John especially as he was my primary PT for my treatment. Most importantly they got me to trust my ankle again, which took quite some time. And I learned so much talking to them as we did our sessions. I definitely trusted their knowledge and experience and even when I wanted to do more because I was feeling better I listened to them if they said I shouldn’t (though thing for me to do 😊). I was back to my activities later in the year and back to full speed ahead this year and the ankle is feeling great. I very strongly recommend Motive to anyone seeking physical therapy. I saw them treating people of all skill abilities and ages with great professionalism and compassion.

I could not be more pleased with my experience at Motive and with the whole team there. Before Motive I was experiencing major neck pain, poor posture, and tension headaches, all of which I could not get under control no matter what I was trying. My time at Motive and specifically working with Lauren significantly improved all of these areas! It isn’t an exaggeration to say that finding Motive and putting in the hard work over time was life changing. I wholeheartedly recommend Lauren and the whole team at Motive.

Motive Sports & PT provides a personalized plan of action. When I initially met with John, he tested my strength and flexibility, documented specific measurements and noted my strength and stability. He then asked me for specific goals which influenced the treatment plan. In addition to eliminating the hamstring strain, I wanted to resume my regular exercise routine of spin classes, Body Pump and running 5-6 miles 2 times per week. I was impressed that John was not providing a "cookie cutter" approach, but developing a plan that met my objectives. In 6 short weeks, I was better than 100%.

The treatment plan was varied, building on my previous session's success. John patiently demonstrated how to perform each exercise and stressed good form. The personalized attention and friendly atmosphere is a refreshing approach to sports PT. I left with a series of stretches that I have been following both pre and post workouts.

I love this spot. I really messed up my knee on a water slide and Mark helped out big time, he’s a very knowledgeable guy. They also have a machine that wraps any part of your body and massages/compresses it 360 degrees around with ice cold water that passes through. I’m going to miss that machine... so cool!

5 stars for John & Mark at Motive Sports! I went to them with almost 2 years of lower back pain that I thought would never go away. John explained to me why I was having the pain and built me a program that has allowed me to workout and do things I enjoy with little to no pain. I am so thankful for Motive Sports and I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for results from a knowledgeable, friendly team.

Could not have had a better experience. I had been experiencing some lower back pains from being in the gym and had been looking for a place to go. I learned that Mark had opened his own business and started Motive and so glad that he did. I was greeted by a young woman named Lauren who welcomed me to Motive with a warm greeting and helped make sure I was all set while I waited to be seen by Mark. The waiting area is very comfortable. Once Mark was ready to evaluate me it was a great experience. Mark was very personable and professional and making me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. In the end, I left with an abundance of information and a game plan towards resolving my pain. Thank you so much! Cant wait to come back!

I came to Motive for back pain aggravated by lifting workouts and it was affecting my daily life with my kids. John was very knowledgeable about my injury and also the type of movements I was eager to get back to doing pain free. He worked to help me stabilize my back and start squatting and deadlifting without pain. I am so happy with my experience at Motive. John and all the staff were friendly and the atmosphere was always positive. I definitely recommend Motive to all of my friends and family regardless of the injury or activity level. Thank you!

Mark Worrilow was incredible to work with. I had began experiencing daily lower back pain that was also causing discomfort in my leg. I reached out to Mark, and he quickly found time to get me in for an evaluation. During my evaluation, Mark was extremely thorough and took the time to explain exactly what each technique was going to help us learn about my injury. After two weeks of performing daily exercises assigned by Mark and a second session in the office, I was feeling back to normal again. In addition to the high-quality care, the facility at Motive was also top-notch and super clean. I would highly recommend Mark and Motive to anyone in search of sports/physical therapy!

I’ve had chronic shoulder problems for years, so much so that my doctor thought I had torn things in my shoulder. After an MRI revealed no tears, I began seeing Mark at his practice. It’s been a thorough and invigorating process, but my shoulder health has never been better, and my pain level has decreased significantly. No more catching, failures in the joint aren’t happening anymore, and I hope to be pressing back to my original weights soon!

Fantastic care, Mark is a one of a kind guy who truly cares about his profession. Would absolutely recommend to anyone seeking PT.

I couldn't be happier with my experience at Motive Sports & Physical Therapy. I have been dealing with chronic pain fallowing multiple injuries one of which that had resulted in a total joint replacement. After being evaluated by Lauren I was convinced that she was going to be able to help. She was able to quickly identify my problem areas and got to work right away. I have came further in my 30 days with Lauren than I have over the last 2 years of trying different types of therapy. Lastly, Corinne at the front desk is very pleasant to deal with making scheduling easy and answering any questions you may have.

I have so many great things to say about Motive! I was so discouraged with my lower back and hip discomfort and wanted to get back to my active lifestyle. Motive is not your your typical physical therapy, it is individualized and my progress was always at the forefront of my sessions with John. John is knowledgeable and provided me with extensive support and strengthening exercises so that I could climb to peak performance in my daily activity. John is seriously the best and I am so grateful I came across Motive in my endeavors, I better understand my physical progress and wish I could stay forever! Also Gina and Zoe, who work at the front desk are welcoming and amazing too! If you are thinking about Motive sports, 100% do it!!!

I highly recommend Motive Sports and Physical Therapy. I came in with shoulder and arm pain that I have been dealing with for 10 years. John used multiple techniques to pinpoint my problem before treating. The treatment plan included mobilization through adjustments and soft tissue massage followed by strengthening. Every question I asked was answered thoroughly. Both John and Mark are incredibly personable and knowledgeable. I am grateful that I found Motive and happy to be pain free.

I am grateful to have discovered MOTIVE Physical Therapy.  As active women in her 50’s who has participated in Triathlons and other endurance events, I have vast experience with Physical THerapy and other body/injury treatments.  The individual attention to my treatment plan and depth of knowledge provided at Motive has renewed my confidence in Physical Therapy as a treatment option.  John and Mark were thorough in their assessment of my injury and the treatment progress. They do not rush through the treatment and consistently offered their undivided attention. I never had to stop my training and was able to complete my cycling event as planned!

Can’t say enough good things about Motive. Easy to get appointments that work with all schedules, always on time, reception is quick and pleasant, calling to make or change an appointment is easy and most all the they are very competent.
Mark was great to work with when I was rehabbing an injury from running. He gets to the core issue and works to come up with a personalized plan. Such a great experience that even after my injury has healed I continue to go back for recovery exercises and to help prevent future injuries.

I was recommended to Motive sports after getting an old injury checked out and no surgeons wanted to take the risk of repairing it. I ended up working with John who is more than a wealth of knowledge and loves what he does. I can't say enough of how great of an experience I had with this place. Everything is 1 to 1 and it never feels like they are dragging you along just to get more out of your insurance. John gave instruction every step of the way and made sure that I was comfortable with what we were doing to rehab the injury and gave a clear path forward. Zoe who worked the front desk worked with me to iron out any glitches with insurance and always did so with a smile. I don't fear re injuring my pec and if *knock on wood* I ever have an injury again I would feel more than comfortable going back. Thank you John & Zoe for making my experience great. Keep doing the small things.

I can't say enough good things about Motive Sports & Physical Therapy, and the Physical Therapy work that I completed with Dr. John Kokos. It's a fantastic facility with incredible staff and for someone that has had a debilitating lower back issue for a decade, I have been everywhere and tried everything. John took control from the first consultation, and lead me through the entire process with confidence and consistent information on where we were in the rehabilitation. He was always working toward an end goal, and the end goal was nothing short of life changing for me. I have spent years chasing a back issue, and John determined within 15 minutes, that it was not my back, and was a hip imbalance and strength issue.
I can't say enough good things about this practice and have been telling everyone I can about my experience with Motive. Kudos to Dr. Mark Worrilow, Dr. John Kokos, and the entire staff.
