Dr Tia Totura has been PHENOMENAL at helping me with figuring out my semi-recent onset of motion sickness. She is thorough, patient and extremely wise. She answers all of my questions. I am making steady strides and know I am in good hands!

Dr. Tia Totura is absolutely amazing! I have been dealing with chronic back and neck issues for almost 20 years and haven't found much relief, even though I have tried everything under the sun. Tia was the first to truly help eliminate my issues. The way she explains what is going on really helps me understand how what she is doing helps, and the importance of my follow through. Super kind and dedicated! I truly cannot express in words how important she has been to my quality of life!

I began seeing Dr. Tia Totura in July due to an auto accident which caused a slight concussion and whiplash. She was always very professional and informative in treating my injuries. When I asked her questions, she would explain in detail what the problem was and how she was treating it. I was impressed by her knowledge and demeanor. If I need PT help in the future, I will always call Tia first. I highly recommend her to anyone needing physical therapy treatment.

Tia is amazing. She is thoughtful, engaging, genuinely cares about her clients, and demonstrates a true passion of helping people get better. I had two foot surgeries back to back and going to Activcore has been the main contributor to helping me improve my mobility and strength. Tia has taught me not just to get back to where I was before surgery, but more importantly what I can do to be in even better shape. I'd recommend Activcore to people who sincerely want to get better and improve themselves, this has been a difficult commitment but one of the most important investments I could have made in myself.

Dr. Tia Totura has helped me get my life back! She is both knowledgeable and helpful. She has helped me work through many years of injuries and bad posture habits with her personal attention. I am getting back to doing the things I enjoy without the fear of lurking vertigo. I highly recommend her!
