After two knee surgeries in eight months, I have spent a lot of time at Elite. I highly recommend the facility and Adam C. for all your PT needs. I’m closer to getting back to running than I could have ever imagined. Thank you Elite for all of your help and thank you Adam for pushing me to do all the things that have made me stronger.🩷

I was extremely fortunate to be introduced to Elite Health Services and Adam Czaplinski after months of research and recommendations from my PT in Palm Beach and local running groups in Greenwich.
Rewind 18 months - I broke my right foot in a mountain bike accident in Thailand and shattered all the metatarsal bones in my right foot.
Surgery was necessary then started the healing and recovery process.
This is where I was introduced to this absolute guru and superstar of a person - Adam Czaplinski.
2-3 PT sessions per week whilst being in a boot with mobility and plenty of scar tissue!!
Through Adam’s intelligence, tireless efforts and dedication for house calls (sometimes after hours) I was back running at my full potential within 6 months.
I feel like my recovery was text book due to the above and it even shifted my views on how valuable PT is/can be.
I have continued to use Adam’s services since!

I have dealt with intermittent difficulty with "air hunger," feeling like I cannot get a deep breath past the back of my throat for over 40 years. It became progressively worse with no one able to correctly diagnose or treat the problem. I now know that it led to the past 12 years playing "medical whack-a-mole" with symptoms of organ dysfunction but without clinically supporting evidence. Over the past year, breathing became so difficulty I could not stand and talk at the same time - it was too much for my respiratory and cardiovascular system to handle. I could not carry groceries up the stairs without taking 4 breaks on the way up and having a heart rate of 180 when I got to the top. I am 60 years old and danced professionally and semi-professionally well into my 40's and was accustomed to doing interval running with ankle weights prior to this past year. I was referred to an outstanding pulmonologist who was finally able to properly diagnose an extra-thoracic airway restriction - my trachea / windpipe was reduced to 5 mm in diameter - it should be close to 15 mm. The interventional pulmonology team was able to address the tracheal stenosis with an interventional bronchoscopy to excise the extra tissue and dilate the airway to its proper size. As I am also a physical therapist, I knew the importance of treating the disordered breathing patterns that had developed over the past 40 years, and knew the importance of reaching out to someone who knew more than me about airways and breathing disorders. I reached out to Brad Gilden and met with him via telehealth recently. He was able to provide education and clinical reasoning for the important places to be addressed and gave me exercises to address the initial goals of widening the airway, improved motor control in the back of the throat, improved diaphragm doming and rib cage function. I cannot thank him enough for taking the time and energy to learn and implement training in breathwork in his physical therapy practice. Such an amazing experience to have this clinician on my team. My long term goal is to run a 10K this spring/summer. Thank you so much, Brad!

Posted is a picture of the stenosis which has now been dilated to a normal patent tracheal opening. My long, long, long term goal is to never have to go back again.

I love EHS. I've been working with Alex Blank who is incredibly knowledgeable and talented. I've been to other local PT's in the area where I didn't get the support I get from Alex. It's a true one-on-one experience using up the entire 60 minutes with complete dedication to healing my body. The approach is thoughtful, well-researched and personalized. Thank you!

I've been working with Alex Blank on resolving tennis elbow. I've been so happy with the results. It's been about 5 weeks of work, and it's much improved. Highly recommend!

I'm a devoted client of Elite. I have worked with several of the therapists, including Adam, Brad, and Katie, and found them all incredibly knowledgeable and skilled. I train with Beth, who has steadily increased my strength and mobility, and kept our sessions fun and interesting. And I do pilates with Corey, who is such a special person, and has helped me tremendously with core strength and alignment. This place is amazing, and will help you become a stronger, better version of yourself!

I have seen multiple physical therapists for the same issues, but Liz helped me more in one session than any of the other physical therapists I have seen. I have been incredibly impressed by both her breadth of knowledge and creative thinking in terms of treatment recommendations. She is passionate about her work and cares about her patients and their concerns.

Liz also recommended I start pilates with Cory, who has also been wonderful, and both communicate to ensure they are both addressing my areas of concern in a way that is customized to my needs.

I have been extremely satisfied with my care at Elite Health Services and highly recommend both Liz and Cory.

I highly recommend EHS. I have been under the care of Alex Blank at EHS since September 2019 for chronic pain and and post surgery PT. Alex is a knowledgeable, insightful and caring therapist who has gone to great lengths to identify and explain the proper treatment for the various issues I have faced. During each one-hours session, Alex works with me 1:1 and all his focus is on improving my well-being. The office staff at EHS is friendly, professional and attentive, and dedicated to making sure they can schedule PT sessions that best fit your schedule. I decided to try EHS after being treated at two other PT offices, and can definitely say that EHS provides the best personalized PT service!!!
