Personal Training Testimonials
Working with Dr. James Benz this past golf season in 2017 has dropped my handicap 4 points and I recently won the the 2nd flight championship. I attribute my accomplishments to my improvements in flexibility, balance, and strength while working with Dr. Benz. He also was able to modify exercises for me because of my knee and back injuries. I highly recommend Dr. Benz to anyone who is looking to improve their golf game.

Dr. Benz is very knowledgeable. I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia a couple of years ago and have been suffering with a lot of pain. I started seeing Dr. Benz and with his help, I have been able to start an exercise routine that strengthened my muscles and helped to diminish the pain in my body. He is a great Chiropractor and trainer. He understands my symptoms and knows how to treat them differently. He helps my muscles to release tension and to relax with different techniques and stretches. Overall, I have been feeling much better since I started seeing him. I totally recommend DR. Benz!!!

I sought assistance from Dr. James Benz after a pretty painful golf season where my lower back pain was getting progressively worse. James was recommended to me as a Chiropractor who specialized in golf rehabilitation. A golf assessment quickly revealed the issue was caused by my hips being ‘locked’ which in turn was causing my back to take the majority of the stain. Three weeks later, my back is much improved and, more importantly, my drives have gained between 10 and 20 yards!! I would not hesitate to recommend James to anyone who would like to not only improve their back but also there overall game.

I have been training with Dr Benz for the past 12 years. He has been a very positive influence and result oriented person, helping me reach my goals and objectives. As for my golf game, I can honestly say I play better today than I ever have. This is contrary to what normally happens as we age. My flexibility and strength is better than most players who are in their 40's. I am in my late 60s. At 62 I won the A flight championship at Rye Golf Club. Dr.Benz's knowledge of the muscular and skeletal structure is above and beyond any trainer or strength coach you have ever met.
