I found this place because of an Instagram ad. I am a dragonboater but had many of the specific difficulties mentioned in the ad directed for fighters. I tried the traditional PT route and found it to be not helpful at all. I went into this thinking "what do I have to lose?", especifally since the first session was free. (Also helps that Ventus has all 5 star reviews.) It turned out I had a lot in common with fighters. I got assigned to Yoshiya aka Josh. Yoshiya never paddled before but he took the time to speak with me to understand my stroke and watched videos of me and other people in action so he could better understand what was going on. Traditional PT never did that. He told me he could "fix" me in 4 sessions and that I didn't even need to come in every week. Traditional PT recommended coming in 2x a week so that almost seemed too good to be true. He gave me home work which took more than an hour to complete and I had to do it daily. I had other issues arise when my coach tried to change my stroke or when I slept on the wrong pillow and Yoshiya was very helpful in helping me resolve these unexpected things. I cannot say enough good things about him- he never makes you feel rushed to leave. In the sessions, he really gives you all of his attention and makes sure you, the patient, fully understand your situation and the logic behind all of the exercises he gives you. He speaks with a lot of PT lingo and about muscles that I didn't know existed but you can really get the sense that this guy knows what he's doing. After session 3, the pain disappeared. It was a miracle. After all the bumps along the road, Yoshiya delivered completely on everything he had promised. Things that he predicted would happen basically all came true. I was in disbelief, even as the patient. He gave me more work to do at my final session despite my expectation of it being a goodbye. I really feel like Yoshiya wants me to get even stronger, beyond just recovering and living without pain. He doesn't cut ties with you after because you are no longer a paying customer and he said this isn't a transactional relationship. Yoshiya, in my opinion, is going to change the world of PT and is a pioneer in many ways. He's running his practice the way he thinks it should be and doing all the things that got him in trouble when he had worked at a traditional PT place. He's ambitious and he wants to do so much for the world. And honestly, I believe he already has.
All of this being said- Yoshiya is not cheap. He does not take insurance which was my major source of hesitation to do this. However, he can take away your chronic pain and, can you really put a price on that? He doesn't talk like a used sales car salesman and doesn't keep trying to up sale you or have you pay for more sessions or add-ons. He's just clear in the beginning about what to expect and does what he says he's going to do. There are no gimmicks here. Just straight forward honesty.
Thank you Yoshiya, for doing what I did not think was possible.

After engaging with their social media page which was easy to set an appointment, I was followed up by Chackman. He asked about my issues thoroughly. He elaborated what I should expect.
The appointment went amazing, I was greeted by Russel at the door. The ambiance was aesthetic and modern.
*I came in for shoulder DISCOMFORT, which later showed up to be MORE serious than expected.*
We briefed about my history and I performed movements.
Russel not only informed me of errors on my fundamental mechanics, he explained how to prevent them. He spent a generous amount of his time treating me, informing me, and I feel better than when I walked in.
These people are excellent communicators!
Physical Therapy is so underrated and helps prevent pain and hefty expenses down the line.
PLEASE do yourself a favor, invest, and get your pain or discomforts taken cared of! ‼️
Why not support our local businesses while at it? Cheers!

So, in an interesting twist of fate, I came across Ventus on Instagram. Now, considering my posts, it doesn’t come as a surprise that they’d promote any number of physical therapy or recovery offices in my stories. However, what I do find surprising is who this business founder was.
Allow me to explain.
Some years ago, I went to Professional PT because it’s super close and convenient for me. I can’t speak on whether the doctor there was good because I never worked with him, only a subpar underling.
His first statement and a major red flag for me was, “I don’t even need to look further, textbook forward-tilting posture,” and he dismissed any further information that might have helped my recovery early on. “Textbook” anything doesn’t appeal to me, we are individuals and circumstances vary greatly.
In any case, in that practice, I noticed two practitioners that caught my attention. One of them was named Josh. I remember watching Josh work with his people, thinking I needed to work with that guy instead of this textbook goofball. Screw that guy. I quietly asked the staff to assign me to Josh or to tell me when he was in and the other guy was out if we were looking to spare feelings. I’m not an mean dude.
I managed to work with him once; during that one session, I told him we accomplished more than in many weeks with that other trash therapist. However, after that one time, they kept sending me back to that other dude because I was “his case.”
I didn’t like that, and I felt like I was wasting my time with that guy. He never did any hands-on work, and I was burning my hard-earned money. Everything he had me doing, I could do on my own, so I decided to no longer attend PT sessions there as they wouldn’t give me over to Josh.
Fast forward some 3 or so years, and I come across this Ventus Instagram post. Now, at the time, I didn’t make the connection. I was interacting with Josh as a total stranger who caught my interest, and he did the same.
We didn’t make the connection about meeting each other previously until by chance when I mentioned going to the old Kew Gardens location and a guy named Josh that I liked. He told me that this was him, but I didn’t think he looked like who I remembered, but I assumed it was the facial hair and my bad memory. In any case, that’s how we realized this near the very end of our very long and detailed appointment.
Now, after that very long-winded explanation, let’s get to the actual first impressions here.
This location is a bit out of the way for me, but when you find a promising place, sacrifices must be made. Josh appears legit, and whether we succeed or fail, I need to try him out.
I am presently doing everything that I can to avoid having surgery on my neck. I’ve been to many doctors and therapists. So far, with little to no results. Josh and a few other doctors are like my last chance to resolve this with conservative treatments that do not involve major surgery.
Ventus is a pretty nice open space; it’s clean, and Josh is pretty good about the location’s hygiene. They even have bootleg Crocs that you wear to go to the bathroom. As per Josh, it’s a Korean thing. I get it; we take our shoes off at our place, but the bathroom bootleg Crocs are new to me.
Josh spent a good deal of time talking to me about my pain symptoms, what I’ve tried, what has been tried, and what he thinks we could do. He doesn’t think that I need surgery and believes he can help me resolve this issue within 4 or so sessions. After years of being in terrible pain, that sounds pretty damn good to me. Hence why I’m trying him out.
Please note, that these folks do not take insurance, so you are footing the bill. However, I think we can all agree that if he can fix my issues, then this is money well spent! Also, the costs are very reasonable, but understand, there is no copay or insurance here.
We have already established that Josh had caught my attention long before coming here, so I’m super excited to work with him and either resolve this issue altogether or hopefully make some progress towards a solution.

Think of Wolverine’s resilience with a touch of Jiraiya’s wisdom. Bring water; you’ll be sore, but it’s like unlocking a hidden superpower. I was suffering from several old back injuries, tendinitis in all four joints, and neck and shoulder injuries. The practitioner did a great job with bedside manner, attentiveness, and as a knowledgeable practitioner. But most importantly, his empathy and compassion really shine. Thank you.

I just left an initial intake with Russell feeling so hopeful about having my pain alleviated! I have tried Physical Therapy many times and have never had the experience I had today. Russell was incredibly knowledgeable and thorough. He also spent double the time with me than he was supposed to and it did not feel rushed at all. Russell took a wholisitic approach - looking at how my body was operating all together, rather than focusing on just one part. It was clear that he has an exceptional understanding of how the body works, yet explained things in a way that I understood them. It also did not feel "salesy" or "gimmicky" and I didn't feel pressured to make a purchase. Russell's work spoke for itself. I felt like there was integrity in his work and that he was trustworthy. He was also attentive, friendly, respectful, patient and put me at ease. There was a world of difference between my intake evaluation at Ventus Therapy and typical PT evaluations. So excited to continue working with Ventus therapy so I can see where it takes me. Thank you Russell!

Coping with the roadblock of an injury, I was lost among various doctors & practitioners but Ventus is a truly unique facility in today's environment where medical intervention is increasingly corporate, understaffed, overwhelmed, impersonal. Working with a caring professional who will actually listen to my health concerns, take the necessary time to make an honest assessment of where I am in my health journey and respond and adjust appropriately to that information is intangible. It is rare that I offer advice or write reviews but can genuinely recommend Ventus PT without reservation.
