"I came to Chris with a pinch in my rotator cuff which was a knock-on effect from an injury I sustained the prior year. He was able to diagnose the issue almost immediately and came up with a treatment plan. After 4 visits across 5 weeks and following my assigned routine, the issue was all but gone, but I certainly came out of treatment better than before armed with the knowledge of how misalignment and underdeveloped rotator cuff muscles can lead to shoulder pain, and how to strengthen aforementioned muscles. Working with Chris will change the way you think about sports and injury."

"I was in rough shape when I came to Chris. We started intense dry needling sessions. And it started out painful but I relaxed into it pretty fast. He paid close attention to where he placed the needles so they didn't cause more unnecessary pain. He had me do carefully guided exercises to increase my strength and relieved more pain with stretching. He worked out all the deep tension I felt. I'm so thankful I found him."

"Chris is an excellent physical therapist who combines deep knowledge, experience, and a unique blend of techniques—including acupuncture, stretching, and strength training—to support recovery, and he genuinely cares about helping his patients feel better. I've made significant progress in the two months I've worked with Chris and am now nearly pain free."

Most patients report mild discomfort during dry needling, similar to a quick pinch, followed by immediate muscle relaxation and relief. Dr. Chris Lee has extensive experience with this technique and pays close attention to needle placement to minimize unnecessary pain. Many patients find it highly effective for releasing deep muscle tension in the neck that other treatments can't reach.
