RE-HUMANIZING PHYSICAL THERAPY

THE PT PROJECT EXPERIENCE

YOUR GOALS START HERE

The mission of The PT Project is to redefine the Physical Therapy experience. We believe Physical Therapy should be performed by skilled Physical Therapists, with advanced certifications, not by PT aides or assistants. We feel your treatment should be determined solely by your needs and your goals, not by insurance benefits. We are an evidence based practice and utilize the latest treatments and technology to both shorten your recovery time and work on injury prevention. Our effective care combines skilled manual therapy and therapeutic exercise. Whether your goals are to mow the lawn again, improve your golf game, or run a marathon, we believe with the right care, you are capable of anything! We want active people to stay active! Let us help.
