I have been privileged to consult with her regarding numerous physical therapy issues over the years and she has always addressed each matter effectively.

I unreservedly recommend Dr. Har-El.

I recently had the opportunity to experience a dance therapy session, and it was truly transformative. During each session, I was able to let go of my inhibitions and connect with my body and mind through movement.
I truly enjoy every session, in which Dr. Rivi Har-El, combines physical therapy, dance, and body and mind healing through movement.

Dr. Rivi Har-El is incredibly warm, supportive, welcoming and skilled at creating a safe and nurturing environment. She guided me through a series of exercises that were both challenging and enjoyable. I was amazed at how much I was able to express through movement, and how it helped me to release stress and tension that I didn’t even realize I was carrying. Each session left me feeling energized, centered, and more in touch with myself. I would highly recommend physical and dance therapy to anyone looking for a unique and effective way to improve their physical, mental and emotional well-being.

Dr. Har-El’s attention to detail and commitment to excellence instilled confidence and trust at every stage of my care. She always went above and beyond to ensure that I received the best possible treatment, tailoring her approach to my specific needs and circumstances.

What truly sets Dr. Har-El apart is her unwavering dedication to her patients’ well-being. She consistently created a supportive and reassuring environment, making even challenging moments more manageable. Her kindness, skill, and passion for helping others are evident in everything she does.

I cannot recommend Dr. Rivi Bleach Har-El highly enough. She is an extraordinary physician, and I am deeply grateful for the exceptional care she provided.

Sincerely,

I have a chronic illness (Fibromyalgia) and have been treated by Dr. Har-El for many years. Don’t waste your time with other physical therapists. She was recommended by my Rhumatologist after I’d tried many others without improvement and the only one that was able to help me at all.
Other physical therapists used gym exercises (that did not help and often harmed my constant state of pain and exhaustion) where Dr. Har-El uses hands on manipulation that works on the tissue and muscles. And she always intuitively knows exactly where on my body it is most needed.. She has a God given talent for healing and It is clearly her passion.

Dr. Rivi Har-El is an extraordinary physical therapist. I have been seeing her whenever I have had a problem in the past 22 years. She gives special attention to my needs and excels at all aspects of PT. She has a healing touch and has helped me with a broken ankle, a sprained ankle and back and neck issues. She has a background in dance and movement therapy and recommends exercises that are great for rehab and healing. I have also attended her movement therapy classes, which are very helpful and also very enjoyable. I think she is quite amazing!

I have been seeing Dr. Rivi over several years for a variety of serious spine issues. When all other modalities have failed or made my lumbar and neck issues worse, Dr. Rivi's hands on techniques have been extremely successful in reducing pain and increasing my mobility. Most recently I was diagnosed with a very serious neck injury and was referred for immediate surgery. I chose to have Dr Rivi treat it instead and am now over a year and a half out of pain and have avoided surgery. Her modalities are different from ordinary physical therapists in that she provides dedicated hands on time for the entire appointment. Her home exercise programs are also quite helpful. I credit Dr. Rivi for keeping me moving, out of pain and away from surgery. She is extraordinary!

I have seen Dr. Har-El for several physical ailments and cannot praise her highly enough. She is an extremely talented and caring healer whose hands-on treatment is unique. I first consulted her in 2008 when I had carpal tunnel syndrome. After months of PT and OT at a major university hospital, I was told that I would never regain full movement in my wrists. I was referred to Dr. Har-El by a colleague who was a patient. After treatment with Dr.Har-El, I have fully recovered. Over the years, I have had other issues (shoulder pain, meniscus tear in knee), and Dr. Har-El's treatment has always brought relief. Unlike most PTs, Dr. Har-El treats the whole patient and spends a lot of time both treating and educating patients. I have a slew of exercises that I perform at home to keep various problems under control. In sum, Dr. Har-El is a deeply caring, unique professional.

"Dr. Rivi is a true healer and someone that deeply cares about the well being of her patients. Her professional skills go above and beyond that of a Physical Therapist as she incorporates innovative and customized treatment for each person that walks through her door. Dr. Rivi treated our son several years ago and brought him an unexpected measure of relief. Highly recommended."
