“After trying physical therapists for years, I have been doubtful. I was amazed that aqua therapy helped. I had a lot of limitations, but after starting PT, I made a lot of progress and was able to slowly get back to my activities.”

I’ve been suffering from back pain for many years and I’ve tried many therapies before, but nothing gave me the results I needed.

My neurologist recommended to try Physical Therapy Specialties, so I decided to go and see if anything would be different.

After trying physical therapists for years, I have been doubtful. I did not think that this time would be different from what I’ve tried in the past.

I was amazed that aqua therapy helped. I had a lot of limitations, but after starting PT, I made a lot of progress and was able to slowly get back to my activities.

Now I can be active again and spend time with my loved ones without any limitations.

I highly recommend Physical Therapy Specialties to everyone willing to try new approaches to get better.

RECOVERED FROM BACK PAIN AFTER 5 YEARS

“It was terrible for me, I couldn’t bike, hike, and do other activities I love. After some time, I noticed the progress as I was able to cook for longer, walk for longer, and do more activities gradually.”

After suffering from back pain for many years, I had to undergo spinal surgery to get better.

I’ve been told to start physical therapy to recover faster after the procedure.

When I tried other therapists, it wasn’t getting any better. It got terrible for me, I couldn’t bike, hike, and do other activities I love.

As an outdoor person, my life got really affected and I wasn’t able to enjoy doing things I love.

Eventually, I found Physical Therapy Specialties and I am so glad I did. After some time, I noticed the progress as I was able to cook for longer, walk for longer, and do more activities gradually.

I recommend them to anyone with back pain problems whether you’ve already had surgery or trying to prevent one.

RECOVERY AFTER BACK SURGERY AND SCOLIOSIS

“I’ve never had anyone that compares to the quality of care I receive from these excellent therapists.”

I’ve had many problems with my back in the past and severe pain due to my other health problems like scoliosis, osteoporosis, and arthritis. I’ve had three surgeries for my neck in the past, but this did not stop my back pain and help in any way.

Over the years, I’ve been going to many physical therapists to find solution to my back pain problems, but nobody was able to help me get pain relief I needed.

I was skeptical when my doctor recommended yet another physical therapy, but I decided to try Physical Therapy Specialities and see whether they’d be able to help me.

I’m so glad I gave them a try. I’ve never had anyone that compares to the quality of care I receive from these excellent therapists. I am still with them and hope to be for years to keep improving my back and living the life free of pain.

I highly recommend them to anyone who’s looking for physical therapy and wants to get the expected results.

HEALED LONG-TERM BACK PAIN

“I could no longer run and walking was painful. After a few weeks of working with Physical Therapy Specialties, I have gone from zero miles of running to now 5 miles and pain free.”

When my back pain stroke, I was unable to do most of the things as the pain was excruciating.

As an active person, I was really upset that I could no longer run and, at some point, even walking was painful.

I was ready to undergo surgery to get back to living a normal life again, but my friend recommended I try therapy at Physical Therapy Specialties first, and I couldn’t be more grateful.

After a few weeks of working with Physical Therapy Specialties, I have gone from zero miles of running to now 5 miles and pain-free.

I highly recommend them to anyone who’s desperately looking for a solution to their back problems.

AVOIDED BACK SURGERY

“In January, I didn’t think I could ever walk normally again. By about the 5th week, the pain was almost completely gone. I am thrilled to be able to easily walk again and put on my own socks.”

I’ve been suffering from agonizing back pain that’s been stopping me from enjoying my life as I used to.

The pain was so bad, I couldn’t do the simplest activities and socialize with my friends or family because all I could think of was my back pain.

I didn’t think I could ever walk normally again. I am very pleased to share that by about 5th week, the pain was almost completely gone. I am thrilled to be able to easily walk again and put on my own socks.

My life is back to normal, I can finally enjoy all the things I used to before I got my back injury.

I recommend physical therapy to anyone with back pain problems who thinks their only option is surgery, it really isn’t and you should try and see for yourself.
