Physiotherapy Associates

I have long had lower back pain, and as of the past year, had major neck/​shoulder pain. I saw a chiropractor last year, but it was a temporary fix. My doctor referred me here for physical therapy on my back and neck. Dr. Severson has been amazing. She’s very detailed in what is happening and why I’ve been hurting. We started out with a few exercises and built my way up to many more. Now, two weeks later my pain is almost completely gone. It’s been so helpful to learn about my ailment as well as learn how to manage it and make it better. Hands down best decision to finally break down and go see a doctor, because now I am so close to being completely pain free. The whole staff here are amazing!

I started going to Physio Therapy Associate when I broke my wrist. All the workers there are wonderful. They made me feel welcomed and appreciate me as a client. Erin is my primary therapist but everyone helps you. Bobby, Jennifer and Steve helped me also. After the therapy for the broken wrist I went back for my balance problems. I would highly recommend this place.

So, this here genius ignored a knee injury /​some functional deficits for over six years.
See my Orthopedic Clinic Association review, hooray dyskinetic chain and patella femoral malignment!

Had the opportunity to work with Dave Hogarth, the Clinic Director. Well, more like Dr. Cummings said, «See Dave and ONLY Dave. Your athletic career depends on it, missy. Do it for your own good, or your right leg will EXPLODE!»
Joking aside, very nice and knowledgeable guy. Also, I forgive him for being an ANGELS fan!
A former Decathlete (Track & Field for everyone out there thinking ‘whaaaat!?’), I appreciated his more in-​depth knowledge of the hammer throw and its mechanics. Dave «gets it» and when he didn’t, he asked thoughtful questions.
Effective and varied home program, never static, didn’t get bored. Fusionetics Sports Science is a great platform for visual learners, because you can compare your form with the video demos.
While Dave was fun to work with. .. Just thinking about the manual therapy techniques he used on my knee /​foot /​ankle /​hip makes me want to go hide in a corner somewhere. And the FAT stick of doom. *shudder*
Can’t complain too much, because I haven’t felt «injury pain» while throwing, walking upstairs, deep squat in my clean + jerk, snatch, back + front squat in weeks. Plus some gains in range of motion; oh yeah!
What sets this place apart from their competitors? Giving patients a maintenance program upon discharge so they don’t lose their gains. This is the first time I’ve had this happen, and I’m impressed!
Also, pleased to report that Dave turned me loose when things improved for me, and didn’t attempt to capture more co-​pays and sessions. Listen to your patients, PTs.
Everyone from the front desk crew to the techs to the AT’s were always very helpful. Steve Arias and Mallarie Hanna were always fun to work and chat with.
Excellent customer service with a recent billing mistake.
Overall, very nice, no frills, «gets-​the-​job-​done» facility. It’s also nice that I was able to meet a nice variety of athletes from the community, not just a «runner’s club» clinic.
I recommend Dave and Physiotherapy Associates Chandler for your rehabilitation needs, full stop.
Hopefully I won’t have a reason to come back, but it’s nice to know this resource is available on my journey the next three years!
