Most of our patients experienced poor quality care at other clinics prior to Balanced Beast due to working with PT students/aides/assistants (many times thinking they are working with a licensed PT), PTs untrained in advanced level orthopedic care, or PTs under the pressure of poor working conditions that juggle multiple patients at once and see 20+ patients a day. Do not let that experience stop you from experiencing the best investment in your health that you can make.
Not Your Typical Physical Therapy
Investing in the health of your body is the most important investment you will make. Don’t settle. Spend a full hour with a Doctor of Physical Therapy.
Physical Therapy school only scratches the surface of what is needed to know how to walk someone from pain and limitations to pain-free and better than before in the most efficient way possible. This takes extensive continued education beyond Physical Therapy school. This is the level of care that you will experience here.
