Maximum Velocity Physical Therapy

Went to see Ron after having pain in my shoulders for 9 months. Before going to Maximum Velocity I went to few doctors and none were able to help or treat the pain. During the first visit I understood the level of professionalism of this place. He took his time to really understand the core of my pain and explained to me in detail that caused it, how we’re going to treat it and what needs to be done to maintain. Ron created a program for me and after 4 weeks I felt no pain and was able to climb, lift and do anything else I wasn’t able to before. I cannot recommend this place enough. If you’re in any kind of pain, or want to improve your form, the team in Maximum Velocity will make it their mission to help you. The level of dedication is one that I have never experienced anywhere else.

What a blessing Ron is?!!! After many, many hopeless doctors all claimed that I needed shoulder surgery because of soft tissue injury and bone loss. Ron had me throwing baseballs and lifting weights again after 4 sessions. In 2 weeks with him, I made more progress than in the last 8 years post surgery. If you are hurt, go see him. He will make it better, I promise.

Went to Ron for post knee surgery rehab. When my recovery got to the point of lifting again, my shoulder issue was preventing me from continuing the knee PT. Ron switched gears and got working on the shoulder while adjusting PT for the knee to keep that on track. He’s the real deal and will get you moving again pain free as long as you do your part. Highly recommend.

I started seeing Ron when I was 5 weeks postpartum with my second baby. Ron was so good about strengthening my body and teaching me how to properly engage my pelvic floor but not pushing past what I could handle. Within 6 months I was lifting heavier than I ever was, breaking PR’s on most of my lifts. At that 6 month mark I got pregnant with baby number 3. Ron was the first person I told and we set a game plan to keep me running and lifting through most of my pregnancy. Ron was so supportive and let me listen to my body and adjust lifts and workouts as I wanted but was also really knowledgeable about what my body and my baby could handle. That was very comforting and encouraging for me to keep lifting heavy and running as normally as I could. I was able to continue running up until I was about 32 weeks pregnant and continued to lift heavy up until I stopped seeing Ron at 38 weeks before I had my baby. Now I’m back at Ron’s, 3 months postpartum, 15 pounds lighter and feeling strong. EVERY PREGNANCY IS DIFFERENT but Ron will make sure you feel your best and your strongest throughout your pregnancy.

I run with a group out of a store in Henderson, when Ron was getting his place started up, he offered quick, free range of motion evaluations at the run group. He gave me a quick set of stretches to help fix an issue that had been plaguing my hip for YEARS! By years, I mean, close to twenty plus years. Once that issue was fixed, I realized some of the other issues I have been having may be easily fixed, too. So, I set up an appointment for a full evaluation, and we started working on a full treatment for my hip (and therefore knee and ankle) and shoulder. It only took two and a half visits after that initial visit to fix what was hurting me. Ron got me back up and running pain free, without a lifelong schedule of appointments. I can't really trust a caregiver that has a business model of keeping you returning forever. While it may not be the best way to make money right now, Ron has earned my business for as long as we are both in Vegas! I refer him to everybody I see that appears to have, or mentions having pain in a joint. I highly recommend giving Maximum Velocity Physical Therapy a shot! It doesn't matter if you are an athlete or not, if you have movement issues, Ron will do his best to help you heal!

This will be long, but I feel it's important to know why Ron & his staff is the best in Las Vegas. Back in May, I was in agony. I was in excrutiating pain, and nothing was helping. Doctors were baffled. The pain was in my back/butt/hip, going down my leg, to the point where I could not even sit up, let alone walk. I went to pain management, saw several doctors, and instead of getting better I was getting worse. I couldn't function. I couldn't sit at the table to eat dinner. I couldn't even sit on the couch and watch TV with my kids. The only relief I got was laying flat on my back. This went on for a month. I had many medical issues over the last few years, and this was something new that began on top of everything else. It was torture. Here's what I tried before going to Maximum Velocity: 1. Did CT and MRI. According to the docs, there was nothing alarming. It did mention some bulging discs, which is why we tried some things listed below, but no doctors saw anything too bad. 2. Injections to SI - first one worked for 2 days, second and third did nothing 3. Injections to L2,L3,L4,L5 - none of those did anything 4. Nerve blocks to periformis muscle. The first seemed to help a bit for a few hours, the second didn't. 5. Was in the hospital 3 days - that was useless. They just gave me pain meds but refused a consult to anyone to actually solve and find the source. 6. Lots of very strong pain meds - they don't touch the pain 7. Steroids - didn't help 8. Chiropractor - didn't help 9. Massage therapist - helped a little, but didn't last 10. Acupuncture - didn't help 11. TENS unit - this is the only thing that did help a little, but not enough to enable me to function 12. Massage gun - helped a tad when it was bad, but also not enough 13. Neurologist. Had no idea what it was, and just suggested nerve testing, which was scheduled a month away. 14. Stretching - looked on YouTube and tried a few things, but I didn't really know what to follow because I didn't know the source of the problem. In desperation, my wife posted on a healthcare Facebook group asking for help. Many people responded with suggestions and things to try.... ONLY 1 person physically called us and said "I'm a physical therapist, I'm not conventional and I don't take insurance, but I think I can help". This was on a Friday, I'll never forget that. Ron came in an hour earlier than usual that following Monday in order to meet me. He did a full evaluation - asked many questions, did a full history, and examined me. Within 2 weeks of seeing him, I was functional. Let me be crystal clear, I was not 100% and I was not out of the woods, but I was able for the first time in WEEKS to get around, stand, and sit without excrutiating pain. I got progressively better over time and am now doing a strengthening program and functioning normally. After seeing all those doctors, and trying so many things, Ron is the only one who was able to help. So if you want results and are willing to put in the work, then there is no better place in Las Vegas. Ron at Maximum Velocity is the place you need to go.

Ron is an excellent pt. I came to him after unsuccessfully trying several different doctors and pt's. Not only did he help me with my back injury but he educated me to keep me strong so I don't have to go back. Ron understands athletes and is committed to getting them healthy and strong.

I'm 74 years old and fairly active. Knee problem, see Ron before a replacement, Shoulder problem see Ron before surgery. If you need surgery he will tell you, but give him a chance to show you how to rebuild your body structure first, you will be shocked at the results. Most of all do the exercises he gives you, even after you are well. The best PT I have ever known. No excuses at this places.
