"I think the combination of Laura and Troy Vannucci and Bob Bashaw provides a unique and complimentary group of physical therapists. The Palouse region is extremely fortunate to have people of their character and skills. I recommend them wholeheartedly".
Bill Drake, M.Ed., ATC (Assisstant Director of Athletics- Athletic Training Services, Washington State University) -
"Bob Bashaw has helped WSU Athletics with some of our most challenging injuries and complicated rehabilitations. We value his expertise and "hands on" skills immensely. Pullman and WSU are lucky to have Bob and ProFormance Physical Therapy as a resource".
Thomas O. (Washington State University football)
"As a collegiate athlete, I have never once doubted the expertise of Bob Bashaw and the staff at ProFormance Physical Therapy. After suffering two season ending injuries, Bob has been able to use various techniques on my back to not only help me feel better, but also get me back in shape and help me become a competitive athlete again. I highly recommend ProFormance Physical Therapy."
Troy B. (Washington State University football)
"Throughout my four years of collegiate football, I suffered a variety of serious injuries. Many of the setbacks I encountered could have kept me out of action for an extended period of time, but Bob Bashaw's incredible dedication to my health helped me recover much sooner than expected. Bob worked hard to find the core cause of my injury, then worked with me to not only improve my injury, but also prevent future setbacks. After spending countless hours with the staff at ProFormance Physical Therapy, I can honestly say they are not only consummate professionals, but compassionate people as well."
Sue B.
"I tried previous physical therapy and various other alternative therapies which didn't help my problem. I was hesitant to increase my activity for fear of increasing my pain. Bob Bashaw listened to my complaints and addressed each symptom methodologically. He provided me with an exercise program and advanced it in such a way that I felt my body was getting stronger and the pain was diminishing. My body is more 'in balance' now than before. I believe I have the tools to stay pain free for life. I truely believe that Bob, with his background and knowledge, can help many people resume a pain free lifestyle."

"I have had problems with my back since 1999. I choose to see Laura Vannucci because she is thoughtful and explores more remedies for my problem more that any other therapist I have ever worked with. I recommend Laura to anyone with serious unexplained back problems. She truely has a wealth of knowledge and information in back therapy."
Carrie S.
"Laura Vannucci has been working with me on my spinal condition. In addition to treating me, she has also educated me about my back. Laura has taken her time to get to know me, and she approaches my therapy with my specific needs and goals in mind. Laura makes therapy fun."
Carol G.
"I had back pain that was excruciating, so my doctor recommended Laura Vannucci because of her expertise in back care. Laura carefully assessed my symptoms and gently progressed me to complete resolution of my back pain. She taught me how to avoid having a repetition of pain by teaching me ways to take the work load off my back and build up other muscles to alleviate stress to painful areas. She taught me how to make a habit of using my muscles corectly. I am now able to resume my pre-injury exercise regimen without pain. Laura's expertise is outstanding, and her warm and caring approach really helped to motivate me to apply her suggestions. I recommend physical therapy to anyone who has need of it, and I would not hesitate to see Laura for any problem in the future or recommend her as an expert in her field."
Mike Davis (Athletic Director Pullman High School)
"Bob Bashaw and the staff at ProFormance have been an incredible resource to the Pullman High athletic program. Our student athletes have received courteous professional care. Their safety and timely recovery from injury along with proactive input pertaining to conditioning and injury prevention has benefited both coaches and athletes."
Candy D.
"The second of December I had a total knee replacement. A couple weeks prior to surgery I attended a class at ProFormance Physical Therapy on pre-operative knee replacement education. The class was very informative and it alleviated a great deal of the anxiety I was feeling about the surgery. My post-op therapy has continued at ProFormance. They are helping me regain the mobility in my leg as well as words of encouragement when I've faced some tough days. Thank you Troy Vannucci and staff at ProFormance Therapy."
Danny W. ( Washington State University track and field)
"Throughout my career at WSU, I suffered continuous injuries to both Achilles tendons. I sought out help from numerous physical therapists and chiropractors, but non were as helpful as Bob Bashaw. Bob understands the demands of a college athlete and knew I had to get back out there as quickly as possible. His goal was not only to make the tendonitis reside in the short-term but also to prevent it from returning. I am happy to say that I was able to complete my first outdoor track season in four years and I couldn't have done it without Bob and all the support I received from everyone at ProFormance Physical Therapy."
Lamont B.
" I would like to let everyone know what a great physical therapist Troy Vannucci is. I had a double knee replacement in April and went to Troy before and after sugery. He gave me lots of information and exercises to do before the surgery that would help in my recovery. When it was time to go back to him after the surgery he was so great in inspiring me to do everything that I could so I would be able to enjoy life with my new knees. I can't thank him enough for all the encouragement, dedication and friendship that he gave me. I would highly recommend Troy to anyone."

"Bob, The 2006 season was very successful for the Grand Valley State Lakers as we went 15-0 and won our 4th national championship in 5 years. I got to start several games and played almost the entire championship game which was an unbelieveable way to end out a career. I owe a ton of thanks to you and your staff for all the help that you provided helping me get back on my feet as a football player. Have a great and prosperous 2007 and thanks again." Drew B.
