Action Reaction Physical Therapy

I broke my pelvis when my horse reared and went over backward. After 10 weeks in a wheelchair, I had to learn to stand and walk all over again. My muscles had atrophied, and I had no balance. Ms. Machtley and Dzuka Lin designed a plan that got me back walking and re-built my balance. They are terrific! Very calm and soothing yet tough. The exercises and stretches they taught me will stand me in good stead for the rest of my life. I'm incredibly grateful to them!

Pros: Ms. Machtley and Dzuka Lin taught me how to walk again.

Cons: none

I have had a great experience. I recently tore the MCL in my left knee skiing, and over the course of eight visits Dr Lin has been instrumental in helping me recover my range of motion and maintain the strength of my leg. The staff and service are excellent, and after visiting lots of different health providers over the years, Action Reaction stands out as exceptionally excellent healthcare.

I very much enjoyed my physical therapy sessions with Dzuka Lin. He helped me after a soccer injury to my leg. His sense of humor, kindness, and knowledge of physical therapy really helped the healing process. He spent a lot of time analyzing the problem with my leg, and had new exercises and treatments for each visit. The other employees in the clinic are also wonderful. I highly recommend Action Reaction Physical Therapy.

Pros: Friendly, Service, Convenient location

Dr. Lin's has a very calm and reassuring demeanor. I genuinely got the feeling that he cared for my well-being, and it showed in his treatment of my back injury. He recommended the least stressful exercises for my particular injury and was very informative about how the exercises work and what they're intended to do. I feel that I had control over the progression of my regimen/therapy, and Dr. Lin's attitude was very supportive. I've come away with a lot more knowledge about how to prevent further problems. Thank you Dr. Lin.

Pros: Caring, Empowering, Professional

Posted 08/13/06

Mr. Lin was very kind, attentive, and knowledgeable about his work. My appointment was last minute, but he made time to see me. My injury healed very quickly, and without much pain. I had a great experience at Action Reaction Physical Therapy, and would highly recommend them to everyone!

Pros: Overall great experience

Cons: N/A

Posted 08/04/06

If you need physical therapy, I would highly recommend Action Reaction PT. I randomly chose the group based on their proximty to me and the general convenience of their location (right next to greenlake very close to the UW). I needed a good place to go on my way to work. Boy did I luck out!
Now I would drive out of my way to get therapy at this clinic!

Pros: Great location, great people!!

Cons: None

Posted 08/04/06

Dzuka managed to help me fully recover from what could have been quite a dehabilitating experience with great optimism and a positive attitude. His ability as a physical therapist is a marvel! I felt immediately confident in him.

Pros: Positive attitude and great ability

Posted 08/04/06

Dr Dzuka is the up most professional. He keeps you focused on your therapy to ensure the most success with his time. Hes absolutely compassionate.

2 thumbs WAY up!

Pros: Thumbs WAY up!

Posted 08/04/06

Dzuka Lin is the best! He is more than just extremely knowledgable. His gentle demeanor and ever-present smile will set you at ease immediately. He's very patient and supportive, and due to his encouragement, I leave every session feeling great about myself and my progress. I can't imagine that you could possibily find someone else half as good!

Pros: knowledgable, professional, caring

Cons: none that I've seen

Posted 08/04/06

I don't know many doctors, especially office physical therapists that run appointments from 7am to 7pm. Dzuka really values his patients, and we value him in return.

Posted 08/04/06

Finding a physical therapist who gives individual attention to his patients and who brings experience and genuine caring to the treatment of each patient is a highly valued yet seldom realized goal. Dzuka Lin at Action Reaction Physical Therapy has given me the personalized treatment that has helped me recover from a serious leg injury. He is known for his thorough knowledge, careful examination and patient explanations during therapy sessions. He shows obvious concern that each patient receive the time and attention necessary to lead to a speedy and thorough recovery. I highly recommend the services of Dzuka Lin at Action Reaction Physical Therapy.

Pros: Personalized care and appointments that are not rushed. Careful explanations.

Cons: There are none.

Posted 08/04/06

I have never experienced such kind and gentle physical therapy. The therapist I had at action reaction PT was such a kind, gentle soul. I was truly scared to start any therapy, but after much persuading, I decided it was something I should do. And it was the best decision. My therapist, Dzuka, knew just how much to push me, but more importantly he helped me to push myself.

Pros: Gentle, compassionate

Cons: Absolutely None

Posted 08/04/06

I just wanted to thank Dzuka for his treatment! I stopped seeing him a couple months ago, and it was such a wonderful experience to work with him. He is very caring, and I am surprised by how much better I feel even after a long period from last seeing him.

Pros: So nice, so effective

Cons: none

Posted 08/04/06

Dzuka was recommended very highly and apporiately to me by my chiropractor, and I am so glad he was! Not only were his exercises very clear, efficient, helpful and easy to do, but I am actually glad to go to his appointments because of his cheerful, funny, and easy-going attitude. He always has a smile on his face, and that is so important in a successful recovery. I am feeling so much better because of Dzuka!

Pros: Kind, Smilely, Funny

Cons: Street parking was a little difficult, until the receptionist told me about the free Greenlake Park and Ride

Posted 08/04/06

He has a lot of skill for someone his age. He is generous and patient, and he is creative in his understanding of physical therapy in relation to various problems that patients have, so they have a different type of insight to their bodies.

Pros: Skillful, insightful

Posted 08/04/06

I very much want to express my gratitude to the therapist and wait staff at Action Reaction Physical therapy for bringing me back to health.
I can run again after being benched for the last year and there are really no words to express how wonderfully that makes me feel.
Thank you so much Action Reaction

Pros: Truly the best care i've ever had

Cons: None

Posted 08/04/06

Dzuka is professional, and he really seemed to care about making me better. He was always pleasent, and his staff was very helpful and curteous.

Pros: Long hours!

Posted 08/04/06

I work a 6-5 shift and it is about impossible for me to make appointments anywhere for anything. At ARPT I found their hours to be exceptionally easy for me to work around. You can get an appointment from 7am-6pm 5 days a week. Most places I know are closed by 5pm so the convenience of this system was just what I needed.
Now, on top of that...unbelievably nice therapists and wonderful service made this such a pleasure to come to therapy each week. I felt like I was amongst friends.

Pros: Best hours!!

Cons: None

Posted 08/04/06

Action Reaction Physical Therapy brought me back to health after many years of being taught the incorrect way of doing most exercises. The education I got here was worth every hour of sweat. Plus the environment rocks! I love this clinic.

Pros: Best Therapy

Cons: None

Posted 08/04/06

Fifteen years ago, I sustained moderate injury to one of my knees that ultimately varied my level of participation in extracurricular activities. I've received numerous pieces of advice and have had a number of professionals evaluate my condition. Action Reaction (AR) was recommended to me by a friend and former client. My goal, though, was to test them without offering too much information on my history (not necessarily recommended). But AR far exceeded my expectations by promptly (and accurately) diagnosing my problem and structuring a program and schedule to not only return my knee to adequate health but also to promote its continued health and strength. They went the extra mile by explaining why they were suggesting certain treatments and exercises as opposed to others commonly practiced and helped me to understand more about knee function and its role in the type of lifestyle I want to live.

Action Potential has gone beyond the current standards of professionalism and practice. Its apparent that they've chosen to focus on the quality of care they deliver rather than the number of patients they can squeeze in. This has won me over as a client and has restored my faith in members of the professional community who address our health issues; that they're mission is based on being of valuable service to us, rather than vice versa.

Pros: Informative, Professional, Worth Every Dollar and More

Cons: N/A

Posted 08/04/06

I highly recommend Action Reaction, with its caring and competent staff. Dzuka is a very friendly and professional therapist--go see him!

Pros: Warm, professional, and courteous staff

Cons: none

Posted 08/04/06

I had a serious injury a few years back and had seen more PTs than I would have cared to see, but Dzuka prescribed the exercises that helped the most. On top of that he was also the most pleasent to work with and most patient. I've already recommended him to six of my friends and colleges, and they have all concurred that he is the best.

Posted 08/04/06

I love the whole environment. It is housed in the Seattle Healing Arts Center which is a place of well-being and nurturing. When I entered the clinic it seemed like everyone had smiles on their faces which put me immediately at ease not having ever had therapy before.
The care and treatment I got was far and beyond the best I have ever received in a medical environment. I felt like the staff actually cared about me. You definitely will be challenged, but that is the only way to getting better and I did! Plus the exercises I have learned here have changed the way I think about my everyday activities and how I approach them.
I highly recommend this clinic.

Pros: Definitely environment, parking, and the best of service.

Cons: Really none that I can think of

Posted 08/03/06

I have been to many Physical Therapists to deal with a recurring injury. Action Reaction was by far the most professional, friend, courteous and knowledgable Physical Therapist I have been to. The staff keeps appointments running on time, and ensures you get the attention you need.

I felt very comfortable and well take care of there. Thanks!

Pros: Professionalism, Knowledge, Friendly

Cons: N/A

Posted 08/03/06

Mr. Lin is a supberb physical therapist. He is knowledgeable, caring, and competent. He combines a thorough understanding of physical therapy with excellent interpersonal skills. It is rare to find a first-rate professional of this calibre who is also such a pleasant person. I recommend him very highly.

Pros: competent, caring, professsional

Cons: none

Posted 08/03/06

I can not say enough good things about action reaction! I feel like family each time I go there. You are treated with respect and kindness and you can trust you are getting excellent, knowledgeable care. They go above and beyond the norms relms of service to help you, fit an appointment to your schedule, and make you feel better! I recommend action reaction to anyone that needs physical therapy treatment!!

Pros: knowledgable, friendly, caring

Cons: can't think of any

Posted 08/03/06

It is so important to me, especially when seeing people in the medical profession, to find people that are not only are experienced but also express a real concern for whatever my situation is. I think you'd be hard pressed to find another Physical Therapist or Chiropractor for that matter in the Seattle area that can beat Action Reaction on this. I would recommend them to anyone!

Pros: Personable and Attentive

Cons: I have nothing negative to say
