Testimonials

Julie Scott

After nearly 30 years of living with pain from an injury from my youth and several sessions at other PT centers, I am so beyond grateful that I was referred to Apogee! When traditional PT methods alone proved unsuccessful, it was the combination of these methods with dry needling that gave me my life back. I am so thankful to all the staff at this wonderful facility!

Grace Reinsch

Treatment focuses on helping you regain mobility, improve physical function, and progress safely through rehabilitation.

Depending on your procedure and stage of healing, physical therapy may address:

  • Joint mobility and range of motion
  • Muscle strength and endurance
  • Walking and functional movement
  • Balance and stability
