Sound Familiar? You're Not Alone.
I've Tried PT Before and It Didn't Help
You spent weeks at a clinic where you waited your turn, worked with a tech, and did the same generic exercises on a table. You left feeling like PT just wasn't for you. We hear this all the time — and we do things differently.
I Keep Managing, Hoping It Gets Better on Its Own
Whether it's pelvic pain, leakage with exercise, or discomfort you've normalized, waiting rarely makes it better. The good news: most of our patients feel meaningful progress within just a handful of visits.
I Don't Even Know Where to Start
Pelvic health is an underserved area — and conversations around it can feel awkward or stigmatized. Our pelvic health specialist, Alison Colussi, DPT, is passionate about making these conversations easy, empowering, and completely normal.

What Our Clients Say
"I had pretty much written off PT as it never helped much before. Then I started working with Dr. Ben at GOAT and not only did he help me get rid of my pain, but he helped me get stronger and reach some of my strength goals. He spends the entire time with you one on one. Don't waste your time with mainstream physical therapy. Go straight to GOAT."
— Natalie W., GOAT Patient

"The staff at GOAT PT are absolutely wonderful — patient, encouraging, kind, and they really listen to you. I came in with back pain that was keeping me from my normal activities, and Dr. Amy was able to get the pain managed in just one appointment. I've been able to get back to doing what I love. I couldn't recommend them enough!"

"I like the GOAT concept of one-on-one PT for a one-hour session. I did ten sessions for hip pain. Ben provided a variety of exercises using no equipment or things I already had at home. I had my last session in mid-December 2024 and have continued with the exercises at home. Thank you, GOAT, for helping me manage my hip pain!"
- - Michael Kilburg

They provide a functional fitness class that is fun yet challenging, to help build strength and balance — run by physical therapists who make sure you're doing it correctly. Highly recommend."
