At Bear, the person treating you is the person who gets to know your goals, watches your progress, and adjusts the plan.
Raja starts by listening. He wants to know what changed, how it affects your life, what you have already tried, and what you need to feel ready to do again.
From there, the work is practical: understand the problem, build the missing pieces, and test that progress against real life.
His goal is not for care to stop when an injury feels better. When appropriate, the continuum can extend into strength training and preparation for sport, lifting, and everyday life.
