Patient Testimonials
“I have used the KIME facility in Sacramento. My personal trainer has been Carson Mack, for many years. I am very pleased with his knowledge and experience. If (or when) I need the help of a physical therapist, Evan is someone I trust to diagnose and manage my quick recovery. I highly recommend them!” – Rich
“Kime does physical therapy the way it should be done. Every therapist focuses on making you stronger than you were, not just functional. Evan is the therapist I work with each week and the personal attention he pays to ensure I get the most out of each session is what keeps me coming back.” – Suki
“Like many my age, I have needed physical therapy a handful of times over the years. Kime was in response to a chronically painful back along with wanting to prevent the need for additional Achilles surgery. At my first visit, I learned not all PT is created the same! Their knowledge and patience to target specific muscles and sites was unparalleled, only matched by highly efficient exercises that were recommended as follow up. The results have been real, immediate and enormously appreciated. I recommend Kime as highly as one can.” – David
