Melissa is my therapist and I just love her! She is compassionate, concerned and genuine. She is tough and gentle as well, she holds you accountable with stance, position, breathing and follow through. I have had nothing but positive experiences here and completely recommend to all.

Ive been seeing Shawna Smith for hip and back pain. The exercises she has given me have helped immensely! She listens as I attempt to describe my pain and has worked diligently to improve my range of motion and decrease my daily pain. The front desk staff are always friendly, attentive and helpful.

I've only been going for two weeks so far (for neck pain), but I've been very impressed by the welcoming atmosphere and the variety of techniques used to help (exercise, massage, dry-needling).

Melissa made my physical therapy experience very pleasant. Her knowledge of the hand, her positive friendly personality and clear instructions were very helpful in getting my hand back on track after surgery.
