Airrosti Red River, Austin TX

Dr. Jameson was very helpful. He helped me get my forearm tendonitis under control. It still is an issue for me but I am able to manage it with at home exercises.

Highly recommend Dr. Shepard. She knew the exact exercises and massages I needed to recover.

I visited Dr. Westbrook after being in a car accident last summer and having constant lower back pain. After several sessions with her I found relief and could go back to resuming my regular activity without the constant pain. She made me feel very comfortable and explained the treatment process and timeline. I have gone to Airrosti for all my PT needs in the last 5 years.

PT care at a Airrosti
Dr. Ryan Jamison

To begin, a little bit about myself, and the injuries I presented. In my youth, I was a competitive swimmer at the highest level, competing in and medaling in both the 1977 and 1979 World University Games, Collegiate Championships, US National Championships, and the National High School Championships. While accustomed used to good health and relatively few injuries, during Covid, I neglected my health and diet, resulting in more susceptibility to injuries. During the severe Austin freeze last February, I fell on black ice, injuring my left hip and shoulder trying to brace fall on cement steps. The result was severe and long-lasting pain, essentially halting any meaningful movement or meaningful exercise. Discouraged and depressed, after six months of self rehabilitation, I sought help from some top Austin Orthopedic Surgeons: Dr. Randall Schultz, for my hip, Dr. Seade for my shoulder and Dr. Bunch for my back. It was Dr. Randall Schultz who suggested I call Airrosti for possible help with some alternative therapies. I Googled Airrosti and learned there was a location within a mile of my residence.

What happen next was nothing short of a miracle. When my therapy began, Dr. Jamison began working on my left hip. My left side was so weak and my pain was debilitating, I questioned my ability to do what he was asking. Dr. Jamison began working on my soft tissue the first half of my appointment, explaining everything each step of the way. He then sent me to do excruciating physical therapy exercises. I went home with homework (a series of exercises accessible through a mobile app). Faithful to my therapy, I improved rapidly. The pain in my hip has nearly gone away so I continue doing the PT exercises.
Next came my shoulder, and thankfully my United Healthcare policy covers 20 visits per year with a small deductible. The shoulder improved quickly and dramatically. Because I didn’t exercise much during the pandemic, and subsequently injured both my shoulder and my hip, I was unable to enjoy lap swimming any longer. My biggest disappointment was being unable to do the butterfly which requires tremendous shoulder, mobility, and strength. Within a few weeks of diligent, physical therapy and homework, Dr. Jamison had my shoulder in surprisingly good shape. I have yet to get back in the water, but cannot wait to do so.

Lastly, being a bit overzealous in my physical therapy program, I tried an advanced yoga, move, causing back pain so excruciating I couldn’t move. The following day a friend drove me to Dr. Jamison‘s at Airrosti (ironically I already had an appointment scheduled for my shoulder). Dr. Jamison was surprised to see my level of immobility and dedicated that entire visit to my back spasms.
I HIGHLY recommend this AIRROSTI method of therapy. Excellent professionals, results, and follow up. Dr. Jamison called me at my home following up on my back. Many orthopedist might have suggested injections or even surgery with the amount of pain I was experiencing in my hip. Instead, because his daughter sustained a serious volleyball injury and he searched for less invasive therapies, Dr Schulz discovered Airrosti. What a great gift he gave me and I would like to spread the word as well!

Staff was amazing and very professional, they helped me with lower back problems very quickly.

I recently visited Dr. Shepard at Airrosti Red River with intense head and neck pain that had been plaguing me for an extended period. Prior treatments and medications from urgent cares had been ineffective, leaving me in constant agony. On my first visit, my neck was so stiff, and the pain so severe, I was unable to engage in normal daily activities, including work and driving.

However, the experience with Dr. Shepard was nothing short of miraculous. Astonishingly, after just one session of her expert chiropractic adjustments and physical therapy exercises, I felt a dramatic improvement. The excruciating pain that had been my constant companion was gone, without resorting to any medication. Her approach to loosening tight muscles and tailored PT exercises brought immediate relief.

In just four visits, what had been a chronic, debilitating condition was resolved, and I was discharged. Beyond her evident professional expertise, Dr. Shepard’s manner is commendable. She is not only exceptionally skilled but also genuinely nice, making each visit enjoyable with her pleasant interactions and conversations.

I would unreservedly recommend Dr. Shepard to anyone suffering from injuries or chronic pain. Her ability to effectively diagnose and treat, coupled with her caring demeanor, sets her apart as a true healer. If you're seeking a resolution that goes beyond mere temporary fixes, Dr. Shepard at Airrosti is the answer.

Love Airrosti for fixing those aches & pains that won’t go away & keep you from living your best life. Dr. Ryan Jamison know what he’s doing & strives to help me heal sooner than later. Even though this therapy may not be for everyone, you should give it your best shot. You will be done with therapy much sooner than any other form of physical therapy. Thank you, Doc Ryan!

Dr. Westbrook and Leah are the best! I was only able to have three sessions with them because I was moving - but even after only 3 sessions my Achilles tendinitis pain was pretty much resolved. I left with a toolbox of exercises and new understanding of why the pain was there and where it was coming from. I highly recommend paying them a visit.

Dr. Westbrook and team really helped me fix my hip, knee and shoulder pain and got me back to my daily routine pain free! Via high quality tissue work and physical therapy exercises I felt like we had a outcome-based plan to carefully address multiple areas of pain. Also Dr. Westbrook is an awesome person!

Highly recommend!

Dr. Westbrook is the absolute best! She knew exactly where to target my pain and got me fully healed in just a few weeks! The PT staff there is amazing and are really helpful, knowledgeable, and hold you accountable. Thank you Dr. Westbrook, I am still feeling tons better months after our sessions!

Every time I have a muscular issue I go at Airrosti. They’ve always managed to fix my pain within less than an hour. They know the human body and they always advise great exercises to make sure you keep working at home after the session. What I like the most is that if they can’t help you, they will tell you. They definitely sort out any muscular issue FAST! The best in town for me.

Dr. Westbrook is amazing! I worked with her on a calf strain that was plaguing me. Within two short weeks of treatment, I was pain free and finally healing. She’s a great listener, thoughtful, and thorough. Highly recommend.

Dr. Rachel Westbrook is great! She takes the time to listen, understand and make sure that you get back in shape quickly. Her goal is not to see you for weeks and weeks (unless you really need it) she just wants you to get better and back to a 'normal' life. Thanks to her and her team for the number of times she had to 'fix' me.

Thanks to Airrosti, I learned a variety of simple exercises to combat the effects of my office job. I highly recommend Dr. Westbrook!

I went to Airrosti for sciatic nerve pain and over my 4 appointments learned so much about why I was in pain and how to relieve it! I was a little skeptical but everyone told me Airrosti was the best and they were right! Dr. Westbrook made me feel super comfortable and explained everything thoroughly. Would highly recommend!

This was my second full round of physical therapy from Dr Rachel Westbrook at Airrosti. First time was to get ready for my 2/2023 knee replacement and this last session was for bad hip flexors from a previous hip replacement (15 years ago) and also to help my knee on the road to recovery. I did post-op knee pt at my orthopedic surgeon’s facility (UT Medical) This visit to Airrosti was to ensure the hip and ankle were flexible, thus helping regain full use of my new titanium knee. All went according to plan and I will always use them due to their methods and my success. Love my online portal that I will continue to use. Stretch and strengthen should be their tagline!

Dr. Westbrook was so incredibly kind and helpful in helping me with a pinched nerve. I walked in pretty immobile and after a few sessions, I walked out better than ever. I am so grateful. Thank you, Dr. Westbrook!

The folks at Airrosti Red River are amazing, especially Dr. Westbrook. Over the years, I had accumulated a number of persistent aches and pains, but what got me in originally was an acute lower back pain. After about two months with my chiro, he recommended Dr. Westbrook to supplement the adjustments. After just a few sessions I started feeling a lot of relief. We then began addressing the older issues one by one. In less than 3 months I was feeling so much relief in my lower back, upper back, calf, and ankle. And it wasn't just the direct manipulation that I attribute to my improvement. The physical therapists really know their stuff. I learned ball, rollers, and band techniques, stretches, and exercises that directly address my specific issues. And six months later I am still using those tools when I get flair ups.

As an added bonus, the staff are just so fun and friendly. I loved talking with them and would always leave my appointments feeling not just physically better but also happy from the conversations. In summary, they are all a great group of highly skilled professionals and I highly recommend them!

I was given referral for my knee injury and lower back pain. Dr Rachel Westbrook was very professional, listened and analyzed the concerns and helped me through the recovery process. The staff is also very helpful. Definitely recommend.
