Ascend Physical Therapy

"I started seeing nuha after years of neck pain and two years of traditional pt with multiple X-rays and scans with a mild disc bulge and military neck being diagnosed. I got 4 dry needling sessions over 3 months and my pain is 99 percent better ! Along with being more careful how I lift weight at the gym and strengthing my neck and upper back muscles with my trainer I am no longer in pain! I really appreciate that nuha is not easy on me it helped release a lot of my neck and shoulder tension which was a big plus since I thought I had tried it all! A lot of practitioners are a little bit too gentle and after years of seeking pain relief I need something that would provide faster relief. she dry needles in areas no other provider had done including areas of the bottom of my head whereas typically dry needling was being done on my shoulder and upper trap areas at other physical therapist offices that I had tried. This made a tremendous difference! Every time I would come back the needles would go in with less resistance and now I may just come back for a maintenance session every couple of months just because it feels so good!! If you're new to dry needling she's extremely personable deeply knowledgeable and most of all extremely kind which is what you need when you're coming in with a lot of chronic pain and frustration! All that to say: try her out you won't regret it!"

"Dr. Hasan is the best. I've been having major issues with my back and jaw, and through TMR and dry needling, the issues have greatly decreased. Even if you are having mild tightness in a muscle, have her take a look. The dry needling she does is incredible. The tension is virtually gone after 1 treatment. She is so caring and compassionate with her treatments. She is also extremely flexible with her hours. Send her an email and she will respond quickly and get you started immediately. I would highly recommend seeing her."

"Dr. Hasan was AMAZING! I hurt my hip/back 2 days before my wedding to the point of not being able to bend down and in severe pain sitting and laying down. She was able to get me in last minute for an assessment and dry needling. I was sore for a few days after but was perfect for my wedding! I ended up going on my honeymoon pain free and I feel brand new!!! I have zero pain, and this is the fastest i've ever healed. Same thing happened to me several years ago but took 9 months to heal. After Dr. Hasan's treatment I felt good as new in about a week. Will definitely be coming back for maintenance!!!"

"I was very hesitant to try dry needling, but my lower back was giving me so much pain that I desperately needed a treatment that will actually help ease the pain almost instantly and also help with preventing the pain from returning or getting worse. I am so glad that I was introduced to Dr. Hasan! She was great with adressing my concerns and explaining the course of treatment. She knew exactly what to look for and the places that she should needle in order to give the most benefit out of each session. The day after my first treatment, I woke up surprised to find that I couldn't feel any pain on my lower back anymore! I followed the exercises/stretches that she gave me to help maintain my back and I didn't have to return for another session for a month (to also address another problem area). I would definitely recommend giving dry needling with Dr. Hasan a try!!!!"

"Dr Nuha one of the best DPT's in the southwest suburbs! She truly is a master at her craft. After 3 knee surgeries, I had no idea my hips were shifted. This eventually caused what's called pudendal nerve entrapment and let me tell ya, that was NO FUN! Dr Nuha relieved my symptoms after just ONE SESSION! After that I had weekly dry needle treatments for a month or so and with the exercises she provided my symptoms haven't returned since! She's amazing, I highly recommend!!"

"Dr. Hasan has truly changed my life. I have struggled with horrible pain and trigger points in my neck and upper back for about 10 years. I saw countless doctors, nurse practitioners, and other physical therapists who dismissed my pain and offered no solutions. Meanwhile, my pain worsened to the point that I almost couldn't use my right arm. When I initially reached out to Nuha to schedule my first appointment, she responded within just a few hours. She's incredibly responsive and accommodating, and I was able to see her within less than a week! She did a thorough hands-on evaluation of my issues and immediately knew what was wrong and how to help. I felt a massive relief of symptoms even after just the first session. After a few short weeks, I had such a drastic decrease in pain, tightness, and trigger points that I was honestly in disbelief. Nuha has been performing dry needling on my problem areas for a few months now and my quality of life has dramatically improved. Nuha is hands down the most caring, empathetic, and knowledgeable clinician I have ever met. She truly listens and is passionate about helping her patients. If you want to improve your life, you need to see Nuha!"

"I just got my first session of Dry Needling with Dr. Nuha Hasan at Ascend Physical Therapy and I was amazed with the results. The pain was totally gone right after the session which only took less than an hour. And I've been suffering from this chronic lower back pain for more than 20 years. And would like to thank Dr. Nuha Hasan, she is very professional and friendly too."

"A year ago I had a stroke and did a lot of rehab but I was still not making all the recovery changes I needed. I turned to Dr. Hasan to try and make a few changes in my function of my left side to increase mobility and reduce my pain and discomfort. Dr Hasan was very compassionate in are first meeting she said we can do some dry needling therapy to see if we could make any changes. Well the changes have been taking place it's been 4 mo. And the improvements has helped me return to work everyday. I believe the body sometimes needs a tune up and the direction of Dr. Hasan and the Dry needling and active Manipulation Has helped start the process."
