Next Level Physical Therapy & Wellness

Next Level is the greatest physical therapy experience I’ve ever had. Allison is knowledgeable and caring. She has worked with me through several injuries and now I’m feeling better than ever. I cannot recommend Next Level enough!

Amazing! After a recent injury i completed 6 weeks of therapy and unfortunately wasnt ready to be on my own. After being released, months passed and I went back to work, I started developing pain and discomfort, had a consultation and found out I needed a lot of repair. NextLevel is amazing since its personalized she spends time really going over exercises, really gets to the route of the problem and is helping me fix the months ive lost. I wish I had known in the beginning going to someone like NextLevel would have been so much more beneficial. One on one physical therapy with next level is definitely the way to go.

I have been a patient since June ‘24. Dr Bragen is a miracle worker. I came in with sciatica and she has helped, not only to get rid of that pain, but more importantly has helped me to understand my own body better!! Be an active participant and you get results!!

Next Level is a phenomenal choice for personalized care and physical therapy for any injury. I had been struggling with chronic neck and shoulder pain for years, trying chiropractic care, massage therapy, and acupuncture without relief. Dr. Allison and Dr. Kayla were so thorough and personalized throughout my sessions, making adjustments specific to my needs and the evolution of my recovery. I felt truly heard in each session and knew they were providing the most customized care plans possible. The personal follow ups were also very appreciated after sessions. They were able to allow me to be consistently pain free without having to change my daily life. These two are incredible providers and worth seeing!

I recently completed a 1:1 Runner's Program with Allison Bragen at Next Level. I am thrilled with the results. I'm an older runner who runs, rows and lifts at Orange Theory 5 x /week. With Allison's customized program I cut 2 minutes off my mile time! The program worked because not only was it tailored to me, it also hold you accountable for doing the strengthening exercises each day, about 15 mins worth, by entering your results via your phone. Allison it was very generous with her time and encouragement. I would recommend this program to anyone who wants to run faster and avoid injury. Also recommended as an "Aging Strong" program for anyone over 50 who wants to increase strength, balance, flexibility and overall sure-footedness. I got much more than I expected from this investment!

Allison is amazing at what she does! She is patient and professional, explains the exercises and treatments so clearly, and she’s friendly and funny so the session goes by super fast! Highly recommend!

I’ve been an athlete all of my life and have consistently worked out; and throughout the many years of straining my body, I have developed back pain, hip pain and very tight muscles which has been impacting my day to day life for roughly 8 years. As my problems increased, I got to a point where I had very limited functional movement ability and had to stop working out and playing sports. I sought advice from my doctors who recommended that I go to PT yet after seeking PT from a few different in-network places, no one could pinpoint the root cause of my issues or provided quality care in their work, which led to worsening pain and frustration as they gave me the one size fits all exercises that did not fit my needs. After a few months, I stopped going because there was no progression and I did not feel valued as a patient. I found Next Level Physical Therapy from one of their events they had done at Kur Wellness in Asbury Park. After going too many other PT practices, I can honestly say that Next Level Physical Therapy is superior in every aspect. Their core values are demonstrated through their work, providing exceptional care, always putting the patient first by making their schedule flexible, ensuring all exercises are clear with correct positioning and mind-to-muscle connection after every session, as well as through providing a full emailed document of the exercises to refer back to. They provide detailed explanations and show diagrams of what the exercises are helping and how it connects to other pieces of our daily functional movements which has allowed me to better focus on my exercises at home and take my recovery out of the office and into my life. Additionally, they work one-on-one with you in their welcoming environment with loads of resources to use during exercises. Through my time here with Allison, she has provided quality care in her work and it has reflected in my progress. I am without pain and very happy at the speed and completeness of my recovery, and have increased flexibility and endurance with building strength and hip mobilization. Between our sessions, she continuously checks in to ask how I'm feeling and how the exercises are going. As I have progressed through my sessions, she continues to refine and guide me through the individualized program that she has created for me based on my specific needs and issues. One of my favorite things about Next Level Physical Therapy is that they do not restrict you or ask that you remove certain activities that may hurt you (depending on your specific issues); one of the first questions they asked is what are the activities in my life that I would like to continue and they work around it. For example, I wanted to continue playing sports and working out, and Allison was more than willing and able to accommodate and exceed my expectations in this regard. I would highly recommend Next Level Physical Therapy for your physical therapy and wellness needs!

I decided to go to Next Level PT because I was dealing with chronic low back pain, especially while at the gym. I tried exercises on my own but could not seem to get the pain to resolve. I was so relieved when I was seen by Allison. I was so impressed with how thorough and attentive she was throughout the evaluation. I've never had such personalized care. On top of that, she spent a ton of time teaching me how to properly complete the exercises so I felt confident continuing my program at home. Since I've been with Next Level PT, I've noticed significant improvement in my back pain and feel like myself again. Would highly recommend their care!
