"I am feeling so thankful to have 4 pain-free days (so far)! I fell back in August and have had issues with neck pain since then. I went to the doctor and to a chiropractor, but nothing gave me more relief than the therapy I received at Natural Bridges Rehabilitation. I have a wonderful doctor of physical therapy there, Jeff Shoup. If you need some PT, he is your guy!!" - D.A.

“In just the short month that I have been getting PT, I have experienced significant relief of pain, and a continued general atmosphere within my body of it  just, 'letting me go'.  After all these years of chronic tension, stress, pain and constriction, I am beginning to feel a real sustained release, and it is such a welcome, happy experience. . . .  I have been happily surprised by the sustained benefits I have been experiencing thru your much gentler yet specific methods of treatment as opposed to what the chiropractor and massage therapist were accomplishing.” -S.S.

“Jeff is not only a physical therapy mentor but a life mentor with his positive outlook and attitude as a professional and colleague. He is always willing to learn along with you as a student and establishes open communication from day one to provide the best experience. Natural Bridges provides a comfortable learning environment for students while advancing knowledge about the human body and the physical therapy profession as a whole. Jeff is a wonderful teacher and has developed a fun and welcoming practice for all types of students and patients!” - Ashlyn (Elon Student)

"While working here I gained valuable practical experience in the physical therapy field. It was a great learning environment to work in as a student, between the patients and the staff, everyone was very helpful and encouraged questions to facilitate learning. This experience helped to develop my knowledge of the profession as a whole, while also developing my bedside manner and interpersonal skills." - Cassandra (Elon Student)

"Interning with Jeff massively improved my development and knowledge as an aspiring physical therapy student. First hand, Jeff taught me great amounts about how the human body functions and how to assess, mobilize, and strengthen the body. Jeff empowered me as an intern by allowing me to teach a weekly balance and fall prevention exercise class. The relationships and energy from these classes have been especially inspirational to me. He opened my eyes to see the reward in helping others maintain their health and independence through physical therapy. It was a privilege to work with Jeff and a variety of clients at Natural Bridges." - Jack (Elon Student)

“I worked with Dr. Shoup for my first clinical experience as a DPT student. Working with him not only improved my understanding of the physical therapy profession and my ability to perform hands on skills, but improved my confidence and helped me to grow both as a clinician and as a person. We established open communication throughout my clinical experience, allowing for me to learn consistently and comfortably and make adjustments to my practice  WITH some fun along the way.  I am so thankful for my experience at Natural Bridges and would do it again in a heartbeat!”
