PROGRAMS DESIGNED FOR LONGEVITY: Above all else, the goal of offseason and in-season performance training should be injury prevention. When you focus on longevity first, the performance improvements always come easier.

Jake’s the best and helped me get back to feeling good after a bilateral hernia repair. Highly recommendPosted on Stephen Hooper IITrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Posted on Matthew CaseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I came to Jake with multiple issues, and he’s stayed committed to helping me with each one. Each session he gives you his full undivided attention, and he’s always updating my plan to reflect what’s been working best for me. I can’t recommend him highly enough!Posted on Erwin RauschendorferTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jake has been great, his physical therapy skills are wonderful. He has helped my sciatica issues. He has been able to get me back into working out and I feel that now I’m making real progress.Posted on jaden bennettTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been going to see Jake at SOUVA For a month now. I went to him for upper back and shoulder pain as a competitive power lifter. Week one of starting physical therapy my mobility was not very great and I only felt 50%. After a few sessions, my whole upper body is feeling back to its 90%. Jake is so kind and he has treated me with nothing but kindness. He gives his full attention to each one of his clients and gives us all the resources we need. Jake gave me an app with my rehab program so even when I’m not at physical therapy I’m still able to do my exercise exercises from home or at the gym! I couldn’t recommend SOUVA and Jake more!Posted on Carrie LittlefieldTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jake is an outstanding physical therapist! He worked with my daughter on her knee injury, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. His knowledge and expertise were clear from day one, and he took the time to explain each step of the process so both my daughter and I understood her treatment plan. I especially appreciated the one-on-one attention he gave her and the consistent communication with us as parents. Jake was patient, encouraging, and genuinely invested in her progress. Thanks to him, she has healed well and feeling confident again. We had a great experience and highly recommend Jake to anyone needing a caring and skilled physical therapist!Posted on John RodriguezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jake is awesome! He pays attention to what you are looking to get out of Physical Therapy and really helps you reach that goal. I went to him for knee pain after surgery. I first went to another therapist and I did not really see much progress. Jake offers individualized approach to your recovery and only a few sessions in I have noticed improvement! I highly recommend him!Posted on AngelaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jake is phenomenal. I have a herniated disc at my L5/S1 and he's been incredible to work with over the past several weeks. I've been in between getting surgery and trying to heal on my own, but within the first two weeks working with him, I had already noticed my strength starting to come back and pain decrease - a complete 180 from working with other PT places I've been at. The 1:1 hands on support and knowledge you get is unmatched. I'm a personal trainer myself, so movement is a huge part of my job/life and he's helped build my confidence in re-introducing different movement patterns again. I can't wait to continue to work with Jake on my healing journey!Posted on Leeza FortnerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As an athletic trainer (ATC) who is recovering from an Achilles rupture, I highly recommend Jake Souva. He is filled with knowledge and has helped me achieve more success than I thought I could get at this point in my recovery. Choosing Jake for PT was definitely the right decision.Posted on Sarah HomerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jake has gone above and beyond helping my son recover from knee injuries!
