    - Aiden

  • The therapists I worked with were knowledgeable, kind, and caring. The assistants took great care of all the patients by preparing equipment and answering questions. The front desk staff were nice and always got all the insurance stuff right. Overall, Richmond PT provided great customer service. And, through the work they did with me, I understand more about my injury and I'm a lot stronger now than when I started."

    - Erica H.

  • "Everyone is very professional, super nice and caring from the moment you call to walking in the door to working with the therapists and the assistants. Everyone chips in once you finish your current exercise to start you on your next task. Highly recommended facility, plus they have very accommodating hours starting early am with some late nights."

    - Brian R.

  • "I had surgery for a herniated disc, but two years later I was experiencing great pain again. The team at Richmond Physical Therapy were fantastic, working in concert seamlessly with my Neurosurgeon to ensure I had insurance coverage. Before seeing them I could not sleep nor walk straight. Geoff Gunther worked out a treatment plan with me, and the entire staff was amazing. (Wonderful people there!) I went from great pain to no pain. No further surgery needed. I have my active life back. They are absolutely the BEST!"

    - Jean W.

  • "I can't say enough about Richmond Physical Therapy! The entire staff is so welcoming, knowledgeable and encouraging. My therapist, Mary Beth Blend is absolutely the best! She understands the whole picture of my injuries and where I want to be when I'm done with PT. When you walk in the door, it's as if an entire team knows exactly what your plan is that day and they just make it happen. It's a supper comfortable environment and I actually look forward to my visits!"

    - Kelly T.

  • "I came into Richmond Physical Therapy for knee pain - the whole team was great and Matt coordinated a great plan to strengthen my knee. I finished my PT and still do the exercises today - I have experienced no knee pain since! Cannot thank them enough!!"

    - Emma M.

  • "It was a really amazing experience around so many lovely people who helped me recover and made me feel at ease. I highly recommend receiving PT here if the location is convenient for you! It was the perfect location for me in distance and because of the staff ♥ I was sent home with 2 tension bands and a whole packet of every single one of the exercises given to me over the 18 weeks so that I could continue at home once I discharged. "

    - Diana

  • "I am lucky that my doctor referred me to Richmond Physical Therapy because I have now been a patient there twice. The atmosphere is very friendly, the therapists are top notch, good listeners and coaches. Working to come back from an injury can be tough at times and this team really helps you through it."

    - Caley C.

  • "Everyone here, from the front desk staff, to the physical therapists, to management is helpful, caring, involved and encouraging. You and your physicial rehabilitation progress and improvement is priority number one. Several sevices are available such as dry needling, which I have found to be very helpful with my current cervical and lubar spinal conditions. I would reccomend R.P.T. to anyone looking for an excellent physical therapy resource."

    - Tom & Bogey

  • "If you have to be in PT, this is a great place to put yourself. My situation is somewhat unique (long Covid), but everyone here does their best to get me going. I have always received the warmest reception from the smiling ladies at the front desk and every trainor chips in to move me through my regimen in a positive and helpful way. When I leave, I will miss all of these folks. I think you'll be happy with this group."

    - Bob B.

Orthopedic Process

Improving patients' mobility, recovery and overall well-being through customized exercises, strength training, pilates, hot/cold therapy, ultrasound and electrical stimulation.

Gait Analysis For Runners

A comprehensive evaluation of the way an individual stands, walks, and runs that helps identify the source of muscle, nerve or skeletal problems. We also offer complimentary screening programs for athletes in order to prevent injury.

Trigger Point Dry Needling

The release of a trigger point with TDN will increase blood flow, oxygen, and elevate the pH level in the affected muscle. This can relieve both local and referred pain and improve function, and TDN can be used to assist in the treatment for a variety of both acute and chronic conditions.
