Services
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy services address musculoskeletal conditions through evidence-based techniques. We specialize in treating pain, weakness, and mobility limitations caused by injuries, chronic conditions, or post-surgical recovery. Customized treatment plans combine manual therapy, exercise programs, and advanced modalities to restore function and prevent future injuries.
Chiropractic
Chiropractic care focuses on diagnosing and treating neuromuscular disorders through spinal adjustments and manual therapies. Our practitioners use non-invasive techniques to alleviate back pain, neck pain, and headaches while improving overall musculoskeletal function and supporting the body's natural healing processes.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy restores optimal strength, flexibility, and movement for daily activities. We address conditions affecting the upper extremities, fine motor skills, and cognitive functions through tailored interventions that enhance independence in work, home, and recreational environments.
Pelvic Floor Therapy
Specialized pelvic floor therapy treats conditions affecting the pelvic region, including incontinence, pelvic pain, and postpartum recovery. Our clinicians use targeted exercises, manual techniques, and patient education to improve pelvic muscle function and quality of life.
Dry Needling
Dry needling involves inserting thin needles into trigger points to relieve muscle tension and pain. This technique effectively treats chronic pain, sports injuries, and movement impairments by promoting blood flow and reducing muscular restrictions.

Report
I initially really liked the atmosphere at Back to You; everyone I saw was friendly and seemed genuinely caring. I am having treatment with Marie, who is very experienced and very busy. I can see why she is so booked up because every time I see her my body, battered through six years of injuries and cancer treatment , seems to come to life that little bit more. The surgeons told me I would never be able to have a full range of motion in my arm but and already after only two sessions, Marie is proving them wrong! I highly recommend Back to You with its personal, caring approach.

I went to the Royal Oak location after finding out I had two herniated discs. It took a while because I was in bad shape but with this great team we worked together to speed up the healing process , which I am sure would have taken a lot longer without PT. I really liked every single person I worked with. Each member offered a different service which aided in my healing. We did anything from exercises snd stretches, dry needling, cupping, massage and the stretching table ( I dont know what that is called) . The place is very clean, which is also very important to me. Very polite and efficient

After living an extremely active lifestyle I recently suffered a debilitating back injury that left me in tremendous pain with difficulty even walking. My Dr's at U of M understood and agreed with my hesitancy regarding back surgery. They encouraged me to find a practitioner that was up to date, knowledgeable and progressive. With Dr. John and the entire staff at Back to You I have found the best of the best in cutting edge Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation. I drive almost an hour to get there and it is worth every mile. I am steadily improving and my pain is decreasing. I could not be more pleased

Highly recommend! Feeling over 90 percent better after attending PT here. The staff is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. As a neurosurgery nurse practitioner, I prescribe PT for my patients daily. Without hesitation I would refer patients, friends, and family to this facility. I was very impressed!

I have been receiving physical therapy for a worsened Sciatica problem which made it difficult to walk far or stand long. The services at Back to You are high quality and helped to improve my pain level substantially as well as improving walking, which I am enjoying more than I had for a long time! The staff are very knowledgeable, attentive and Kind! I recommend trying Back to You for any mobility or pain problems.
