Who We Help
“We help men and women experiencing chronic pain and long-term conditions by providing compassionate, one on one, Expert Physical Therapy In Deland FL. So they can overcome their symptoms, regain control of their life, and get back to the things they love to do”.
Have you found our site because you’re looking to work with a physical therapist in Orange City, Sanford, or Debary, FL? Have you been recommended to try physical therapy?
If yes, then you’ve come to the right place!
When pain and problems appear, it’s tempting to think “it’ll go away if I just rest” or even pretend like it never happened…
Unfortunately, oftentimes the problem festers, slowly getting worse, impacting your lifestyle and disrupting your happiness.
Things like pain medications, injections, or other services like chiropractic, massage, or acupuncture may provide temporary relief…but then the symptoms return and you feel even more helpless.
Physical therapy, when done properly, not only gets rid of your pain, but also finds the root cause of the pain so your pain STAYS AWAY and so you can get back to your normal lifestyle.
We know you’re skeptical. Likely you’ve been to other healthcare practitioners in the past and nothing they’ve done has helped you or your problems.
We Understand
If that sounds like you, you’re not alone. Most of our clients have often:
- Tried treatment elsewhere, sometimes even at other PT clinics, and had poor experiences and results.
- Thought the pain would go away on its own if they just rested, only to find that it doesn’t.
- Been told by a friend or family member that their pain or problem is just “a normal part of getting older” and to accept it.
- Have been to the doctor and been told that their only options are “painkillers, surgery, or injections”.
- Have tried exercises from YouTube, their personal trainer, or other fitness studios but found they only aggravated the pain and made their problems worse.
- Have had surgery, injections, or used painkillers only to have minimal or even no success.
Do Any of Those Sound Like You?
If you relate, then we would love to help you by setting up a time for you to talk to one of our physical therapists here in Orange City, Sanford, or Debary, FL to find out what can be done to help you. If you’ve tried a lot of things already, that’s not a bad thing. In fact, it’s actually a good thing because we now know what DOESN’T work and are closer to finding out what WILL work for your problem.
