I highly recommend NorCal Physiotherapy to anyone who is trying to make a recovery from an injury. I was experiencing pain in my right adductor and became pain free in only a few sessions. I also highly recommend Dr. Garrett Toy. I made a safe return to sport after several productive sessions with him. My strength and mobility have improved greatly and I feel really good. NorCal Physiotherapy also has an amazing facility with all the right tools to ensure strength, recovery, and mobility. Best in the business!

I can not recommend this place highly enough! Everyone is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and they were always able to accommodate my hectic schedule. I am so thankful to the team at NorCal and specifically my PT Eric Jacques for all his help. Eric is the friendliest person you’ll ever meet, he was incredible with shifting my plan as my goals changed (highlighted below), gave clear instructions for the exercises, and was always so thorough with explaining the treatment plan. If you are looking for a PT, this is the place to go!

I initially went to NorCal Physio as I was having recurring back pain and had a backpacking trip coming up. My back pain was the result of not doing PT after a spinal fusion and feeling the results 12 years later. Eric catered my first couple sessions to get me in shape for my backpacking trip and it made a huge difference. I had virtually no pain for the entirety of my trip.

Returning from my trip we then focused on the long term goals for my back and shoulder mobility. That was going very well until I fractured my ankle mid treatment while on vacation..

So we shifted again, Eric helped me get back on my feet (literally) post ankle surgery while also balancing my previous back/shoulder treatment. My ankle strengthened quickly and eventually we went back to full focus on my back.

Having just finished my sessions with Eric my ankle is back to where it was before the surgery and my back is in the best shape that it’s been in for years. Eric gave me a detailed plan for continuing exercises which has helped me tremendously.

I had the great pleasure of working with Dr Eric Jacques for approximately 4 months and the whole team was very welcoming from the start!

I had been experiencing pain (7/10) in my left knee at the bottom of my squat and when changing directions walking. I also had 7/10 pain at the front of my hip which radiated towards my low back which prevented me from squatting, dead lifting and sitting for longer periods of time.

I went to Dr. Eric specifically because of his experience in power lifting. Upon the consultation he took the time to listen to my need with the understanding that not only did I want to get out of pain, but that I wanted to get back to lifting heavy again and not have these issues flare up again when I was able to get back to heavy loads.

He came up with a plan based on my feedback and his assessments of stability and strength. I was able to progress movements each week which was different from past physical therapists that had repeat the same thing for the entirety of the treatment.

Being a personal trainer myself for the past 12 years I always give props to great coaching and Dr. Eric was both phenomenal as a clinician and coach. He helped to manage my own expectations and ego during the healing process while I continued to train in the gym by offering a different measure of success. The shift in mindset will definitely be something that sticks with me in my career as a trainer and lifter. Still pain free for the past 4 weeks and back to lifting heavy!

I am truly grateful for Norcal Physio and Dr Eric

Worked with Eric for probably 10-12 sessions (can't exactly remember). I'm in my late 20's and super active and I had a herniated disc which was seriously debilitating and affecting my personal and professional life. Wasn't interested in anything surgical (not like I was offered it) and was really trying to reduce my dependence on daily pain medications just to sort of function. Eric helped me get back on track. Although it took time, we were able to make breakthroughs and I was eventually to a point where I could begin loading my exercises again pain free.

Overall the path to being back to normal was extremely long and at many points I thought I would always be in pain for the rest of my life. Working with Eric changed my perspective on physical therapy as well as my overall mindset towards my own physical health goals.

I'm more than 2 years out from my injury now, back to running, biking, lifting, calisthenics, stronger than I was before.

Excellent facility, sports therapists, and communications. They work with a range of people from athletes looking to improve performance to people recovering from injuries. Special thanks to JP my trainer for working with me on injury rehab. Would solidly recommend.

I had the pleasure to work with Dr. Eric Jacques at NorCal Physio and it was without a doubt one of the best decisions that I could have ever made about my overall fitness and relationship to my body. I am no athlete, but have had some emerging issues with my shoulder as well as a cranky hip and knee.

Dr. Eric conducted a full body analysis and was able explain the mechanics of my underlying issues and then work with me to develop strategic and gradual exercises that helped me to understand the importance of each activity.

He was patient and kind as I backslid repeatedly, but encouraging and unrelentingly persistent. He took a whole-person approach, specifically taking my work and day-to-day into account for each plan he created for me. I always felt like he was invested in my success.

If you're even curious about visiting NorCal Physio, I would recommend you go in for at least a consultation. I was interested in preventative care as my body continues to talk to me via new aches and pains, but the commitment they had to my success is why I will go back and encourage everyone else to do the same.

Thank you, Dr. Eric!

I came to NorCal Physio for intense lower back pain whenever I walked for a long distance or ran. From the start, Jessica made me feel heard when I described my pain and experience over the phone, and she helped me find an option that worked for me. Dr. Eric Jacques’ expertise and A+ care allowed me to get back on track to pursuing a life of fitness done right. His knowledge and insight let me learn about my body and provided me with a toolkit I will use forever. Everyone at NorCal Physio is an expert and makes you feel at home—I’ve looked forward to every session I’ve had. Would recommend, 10/10.
