Paramount Performance & Rehab in Newton

Over the course of my 69 years I’ve had cause to seek out physical therapy for practically every part of my body. I can honestly say I haven’t had a therapist as good as Samuel (Sam) Barros. A good listener, intelligent, knowledgeable, thoughtful, compassionate and gentle. I would recommend this facility on that basis alone.

I am a long—time client of Paramount Performance simply because whenever I have an issue with my aging body, I go to this Needham Street facility. Most recently, I was having severe back pain and when My doctor gave me a prescription for PT, I sent it directly to Russ. It took maybe 3 months with Taryn and Mitch, and I no longer have any issues with my back. I went back for PT a couple weeks ago after a reverse shoulder replacement. Taryn has been so supportive and gentle with therapy because I still have extreme pain. I can already move my left arm well and am back driving. Russ always has the most skilled therapists on his staff. I won’t go any place else,

My experience with Mitch DeAmbrose at PPR was excellent. He addressed my needs and goals after hip replacement surgery with knowledge, care and expectations for improvement at a pace that was right for me. He changed things up and always incorporated new exercises to keep the PT less monotonous and always slightly more challenging, if warranted. He is very affable and easy to get comfortable to work with. Definitely recommend seeking your PT care here!

Russ has been so helpful on my fitness journey. As a full time RN and mother of twins time is super limited and Russ always finds time to make sure I take care of myself. Recently I needed to add PT to my routine due to crushing back pain from work. The relief I get from my sessions is amazing.

Russ, Mitch and Taryn are fantastic! I had a surgical achilles rupture injury and they helped me a lot with the recovery process. Each of them shows a lot of care and compassion and willingness to tailor and customize rehab program to my specific needs. Would certainly recommend them to anyone who is recovering from an injury or simply wants to improve their physical fitness

Mitch, Russ and Taryn are amazing! 3 out of the 5 members of our family are PT patients of Paramount! All the PT's are well trained, caring, and diligent at making sure we are get results! The atmosphere in the facility is friendly and everyone has made us welcome from day one. And our health is improving and we are getting stronger so we can can improve our physical health!!!!

Fantastic place to get physical therapy. Very attentive, excellent listeners, and very talented staff. Russ is excellent at connecting patients with the "right" team member. Zach helped me avoid quad surgery, thank you!!!!! Never will go anywhere else. Try PPR you will be pleasantly surprised.

I’ve been working with Russ for almost three years now, and I’ve never been stronger or more fit. While he is a physical therapist and owns the gym, he is also a terrific trainer who is deeply knowledgeable about the body and how to heal and strengthen it. I always walk out of his gym feeling like I had fun getting my butt kicked, and know I’m healthier for it.
