WHO WE ARE

Who We Help

Athletes & Chronic Pain

High-intensity training often leads to physical setbacks. If persistent pain, restricted movement, or stalled progress is hindering your goals, you deserve effective solutions. We support cyclists, runners, and weightlifters throughout the Worcester area on their journey.

Connective Tissue

Managing HSD, POTS, MCAS, or EDS requires a specialist who truly understands. As Massachusetts' top clinic for connective tissue health, we offer profound expertise because we don't just treat these syndromes—we live with them ourselves every day.

How We Approach Recovery

Recovery isn't just about the injury that brought you in. We want to know how you train, how you sleep, what your days look like, and what you're working toward. That's the only way to build something that lasts. That's also why we don't take insurance. Insurance decides what gets treated, how many visits you get, and how fast you should heal. We don't think a billing code should have any say in your recovery. We treat you as a whole person — your body, your lifestyle, your goals — for as long as it actually takes.

Nicole and her team are thoughtful, knowledgeable, and skilled providers. As an individual with a chronic condition, I appreciate their willingness to connect their patients to wider chronic illness communities, doctors, tips, and tricks. The practice is different (and better imo) because you spend your entire appointment time with the physical therapist, rather than an assistant or tech. This allows for a deeper relationship and faster progress as things are truly customized to your needs. I’m so glad Recovery Sports exists and I get to benefit from their knowledgeable staff!

Niki has been fantastic to work with during the handful of visits I've had thus far. She has helped me rehab an elbow surgery, and assist with other "aches and pains" that come along with EDS. She is incredibly knowledgeable and aside from feeling better physically, I've come away feeling so much more informed about EDS and how best to manage symptoms through diet and supplements, etc. Niki is kind and easy to talk to; the booking/intake process is simple, and her facility is great!

I have really enjoyed my Dry Needling sessions at Recovery Sports Therapy, Inc. Nicole is kind, attentive, skilled and knowledgeable; she has taken time to uncover my specific needs, and explain solutions in detail. The space is clean and organized, with many useful tools. 10/10 recommend!

Katie Waitkevich

Nicole is incredible! She was attentive to my needs after my shoulder surgery and really helped me regain movement and strength. I always felt like she took her time with me and genuinely wanted to help! The dry needling was a game changer for me too! The space is clean and I felt very comfortable during my visits. I highly recommend Recovery Sports Therapy.

We were referred to Recovery Sports Therapy after my daughter was experiencing TMJ issues. Owner Dr. Dumas was able to schedule an intake quickly. The location was very convenient with ample parking. My daughter is highly sensitive and is usually very uncomfortable with strangers touching her. PT Jennifer Molinari was so great to work with and made my daughter feel very comfortable by describing what she was doing, making sure my daughter was ok during manipulation and exercises, and asking for permission before touching her. She was also very thorough in describing exercises to be done at home. I highly recommend Recovery Sports Therapy.

I truly cannot speak highly enough of Nicole!! I started PT with her in the fall of 2022 and working with Nicole has already increased my quality of life. I have lived with pain and flare ups throughout adulthood that I never fully understood until I started at her practice. She is professional and knowledgeable and always listens attentively while providing multiple levels of support. The insight, knowledge, and instruction she has given me is invaluable. I am so grateful and excited to continue working with her!
