Your visit will be personal and specific to your needs and goals.

You will have a full hour with a licensed Doctor of Physical Therapy.

Your visit will include a complete examination of your symptoms, and together we will create a plan to achieve your goals.

 Your visit will likely include a mix of treatments, including:

• Hands on manual therapy
• Strengthening and flexibility exercises
• Cupping, taping & trigger point dry needling, among others as appropriate
• Assigning of homework–exercises and advice–for continual recovery

This boutique, one-on-one style of physical therapy saves time and money in the long run. What would normally be multiple visits at a PT office can fit into one focused, productive session. It is perfect for busy professionals, parents, or anyone who–often because of their injury–finds it hard to leave the house and drive to an office. This practice affords you convenience and anonymity.

We are glad to include doctors and medical practitioners every step of the way. However, in most cases, you can be seen without a doctor’s prescription.
