“I have been to the clinic the last several months and it has been amazing, and such a healing experience. I have been working with Dr. Martin Lai for my postpartum recovery and I couldn't recommend it enough. As a new mom with diastasis recti it has been amazing to get specialized work as well as a specific program, it's been a game changer and I have seen incredible results. Our whole family goes to the clinic and we are always greeted with kindness and warmth, they have created the most inviting space!! I am so grateful to be working with Martin, he has so much knowledge and has created the perfect plan for my postpartum recovery. I am especially thankful for Martin creating such a peaceful and encouraging space for me as a new mom. Highly recommend to any new moms!!!!”Read moreShow less

“I'm a dancer who tore my meniscus (knee cartilage) last year quite seriously and had to stop dancing. It was crushing for me. Dr. Martin Lai was the first person who really understood the complexity of the problem--how different parts were overcompensating, causing pain, and how to improve it. I was amazed at his sophisticated level of knowledge. After just 4 sessions with him, I am now able to do a full squat--which I could not do before. I am also dancing (bachata) 2 hours a week, which is a miracle. I'm excited now for the future. I cannot recommend him enough.”Read moreShow less

“If I could give The Hip Joint more than 5 stars, I would. I can’t express how grateful I am to have found this place and to have met Martin. A few months after giving birth to my twins, I threw my back out and was in so much pain that I was unable to even sit up, let alone stand. After two days of being unable to even get up off the floor, I contacted Martin at The Hip Joint and he came to do a house visit that very day. Before he left that first day, I was able to stand -it was amazing. Each time I saw him my pain would decrease and my mobility would increase significantly, and I was back to normal pretty quickly. I can’t thank him enough. I have been recommending The Hip Joint to everyone I know. Martin is an incredibly skilled doctor and a just an overall wonderful human.”Read moreShow less

“The Hip Joint Clinic is one of the best rehab facilities I have gone too. The service is always exceptional and outstanding. I have been in treatment with them for around 2 months since I busted my knee and couldn’t even place my knee on the floor, today I’m almost back to normal, I even stopped using any kind of brace or help for my knee. I feel extremely satisfied and happy. Dr. Martin and RMT Flavio have been amazing. They have been able to accommodate to my busy schedule, had lot of patience and caring to my problem. I’m seriously thankful for all their help since no doctor knew what I had, and didn’t know how to treat it. Thank you for giving me my life back!!”Read moreShow less
