About Eric

Eric is a skillful physical therapist who prioritizes his patients’ success, combining expert rehabilitation with compassionate, personalized care.

He works with people through the whole arc of a recovery — out of pain first, then back to full capacity, then back to the training that makes it stick. He founded the Kauno Post-Op Run Club, which brings patients rebuilding after surgery back to running together. Outside the clinic he runs, lifts and plays basketball, which is a large part of why he is good at getting people back to those things.

Every visit at Kauno is one-on-one with your therapist. No aides, no doubling up, no being handed a sheet of exercises and left in a corner.

What a first visit looks like

  1. 01One-on-one from the start, beginning with what you’re trying to get back to.
  2. 02A movement assessment — we find what actually reproduces the symptom.
  3. 03Hands-on treatment plus your first loading work, done the same visit.
  4. 04You leave with a plan, an honest timeline, and two or three things to do.

He diagnosed the root cause, walked me through mobility and strength exercises, and answered all my questions. I'm back to playing sports pain free.
