What is a Physical Therapist and what do we do?

Physical Therapists are neuromusculoskeletal specialists who are able to access the root cause of your problem and address it effectively. Addressing a wide variety of issues and diagnoses, we are able to apply a conservative, holistic approach to treatment, saving you time and healthcare dollars. While we have professional relationships with our local healthcare providers, you do not need a referral to be seen by one of our Direct Access Certified Physical Therapist.
