He believes movement is for everyone and works with individuals ranging from teenagers to patients in their 90s.

Penny

Penny is our friendly adult Vizsla and a proud member of the team. With big dreams of becoming a certified therapy dog or adaptive animal assistant, she brings calm, joy, and plenty of kisses to the clinic.

She’s always quick to greet visitors with love and enthusiasm, but she also knows how to respect boundaries. If you'd rather not interact, she’s more than happy to relax in her crate.

Just a little heads-up: Penny is still learning, so she might need a gentle reminder not to jump up or sneak in kisses without permission.

Our clinic is a dog-friendly space, so you're welcome to bring your pup along if it helps you feel more at ease during therapy. We simply ask that visiting dogs are non-aggressive and comfortable in a peaceful, healing environment.

You.

No matter your background, current strength, pain level, or diagnosis, physical therapy is a team effort. It takes expert planning, technical skill, and clinical knowledge from your therapist, but it also requires your full commitment and effort.

Progress happens when both sides work together. When the effort is one-sided, results can stall and frustration can build. That’s why you are an essential part of the process, from setting your goals to driving your transformation.

These are your goals. Your expectations. Your improvement. And we are here to support you every step of the way.
