Joe Fabio2024-04-09Back & Body is a great place for PT! Very clean facility & equipment. Everyone, from the physical therapists to the front desk are very friendly & caring. Thanks to Dr. Perna, Jordan, Tracey, Chris, Rob, & my man Neel!Fani Zavolas2024-04-06The team at Back and Body saved my quality of life. I came to them at the end of February with knee pain that took my breath away and brought me to tears. Dr. Rob prescribed me with a treatment plan that helped strengthen the muscles around my knee and alleviate pain. It’s now April and my pain is almost nonexistent. I cannot thank them enough.Venessa White2024-04-02This place is AMAZING! I started with Dr Rob and his team back in sept for knee/meniscus pain where I couldn't even kneel down. This is not good as I work with children, am a runner, and was training for a half marathon. I thank God that I found Back and Body. Within a few weeks, the pain was gone, and I was able to get back to the things that I love. I continue going to PT to do further work on my knees and hips and keep things working correctly. The team is knowledgeable and very personable! They go above and beyond! Highly recommend!Nathan Lynn2024-03-30Dr. Perna and his staff are AMAZING!

In trying to locate a place to have Physical Therapy done, God blessed me with locating Back & Body Pain Relief located on route 22 in Springfield New Jersey… The staff is incredible. Very caring and concerned about all of their clients… The one on one service you get is extremely helpful to all.

They make sure I’m well informed before and after every visit and make sure I’m taken care of. I would not have had the recovery that I did without them. I have been in judo for almost 14 years and with my recent injury I haven’t been able to preform. After working with the team for a couple of months I’m able to preform in my sport PAIN FREE! Thank you too Dr. Perna, Neel, Chris, Eileen, Dr. Rob, Lyndzie, Zeel, Lyaman, Justin , and the rest of the staff for helping me through my road to recovery -Alexandra RLuis Gonzales2024-03-14Great service, they explain everything I needed to know and the all the staff were very friendly.
