Chiropractic Physician and owner of Patient First Chiropractic and Physical Therapy in Waltham, Dr Caddoo specialized in the evaluation, treatment and conservative management of Sports Injury. His hands-on approach to care is focused on restoring normal function and keeping athletes active in their sport.
Physical therapists provide services that help restore function, improve mobility, relieve pain, and prevent or limit the permanent physical disabilities of patients suffering from injuries or disease. They restore, maintain, and promote overall fitness and health. Their patients include accident victims, and individuals with disabling conditions such as low-back pain, arthritis, heart disease, and cerebral palsy.
Chiropractic is a health care profession that focuses on disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system, and the effects of these disorders on general health. Chiropractic care is used most often to treat musculoskeletal complaints, including but not limited to back pain, neck pain, pain in the joints of the arms or legs, and headaches.
Active release technique can be used effectively to evaluate the function of the muscles, fasciae, tendons, ligaments and nerves surrounding the affected area. Dysfunctional or abnormal tissues are then treated by the application of proper tension to the dysfunctional area with specific motion. Treat involved structures, by reducing contraction and tension in the muscles, and helping to restore proper movement and function.

To start my mother who is 65+ went here, she had Andrew as her therapist when he wasn't in she had Jess. Her experience was amazing and the outcome was to the best. About a year later I myself had shoulder issues. Upon my time Andrew was no longer there. I was suggested to have Jess. First impression the receptionist Laryssa was sweet, friendly and cheerful.
Always helpful to look into insurance questions and she is on top of her game on knowing what's covered and not covered. Jess was amazing friendly and was great asking follow up questions and suggested Gaston and dry needling for issues and for recovery. She informed me of certain risk (bruising or more pain at first, then should go away). She followed up asking questions of how the types of therapy was helping or not helping.
As any medical procedures or things you have to have a 2 way conversation with your therapist or doctor. They are not aware of how your body is reacting unless you tell them the truth and how you are feeling and the areas that are in pain. Jess was on top of this and was professional to make sure things were improving. She would ask on the pain level to ensure that it wasn't to much. Jess also was very friendly, respectful and caring to how physical therapy can be. This is what you want from a medical office is being thorough, friendly and considerate of your pain level. I highly recommend this practice.

Dr. William Cadoo does amazing work. He is very attentive and takes the time to explain the treatments in a very logical and easy to understand manner. He's been very helpful in giving advice for between visits to help with recovery. Would recommend Patient First Chiropractic and especially Dr. Cadoo to anyone in need of a knowledgeable chiropractor.

Don't let them do the Graston method with the stainless steel bars pressed really hard into you for physical therapy. It hurts like hell, leaves bruises and set me back rather than helping. Don't know about their other services. After my trauma with Graston Technique I did some research online on it. There is a website by the promoter of the stainless steel bars with impressive looking scientific papers posted.
I guess they figure most people won't read the papers and will assume they are favorable since they are posted. I read them. One of them was a meta-analysis where they combine the results of all available literature on the topic. Conclusion: No benefit above placebo. So, hurts you with no benefit. Then sends you a bill. Though I have not tried any of their other services, I have no faith in a practice that would use a discredited, harmful technique.
