Traditional Physical Therapy Isn't Working for You
Rushed 15-Minute Sessions
You're bounced between multiple patients while your therapist juggles three other people. You never get the focused attention you need to truly recover.
Limited by Insurance Rules
Your treatment is dictated by what insurance approves, not what you actually need. Progress stalls because you can't get the care that works best for your body.
Stuck in the Pain Cycle
You've tried physical therapy before but the pain keeps coming back. Without addressing the root cause and building real strength, you're trapped in endless rehab.

Real results from real people who chose GOAT PT.
-
"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. Over the following few months, we focused on prevention, and I've been able to get back to doing what I love. I couldn't recommend them enough!"

"I had pretty much written off P.T. 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. He has a keen eye for even the slightest deviation from good form and will help you correct. Don't waste your time with mainstream physical therapy. Go straight to GOAT. You won't be sorry."
- -Natalie W.
"I love the strength training class and personalized training. I started going to learn how to exercise safely and better understand pain. I also wanted to feel more comfortable in a gym setting and move past some of my exercise hangups. I ended up building confidence and joy in movement. I love that they found alternatives for moves that made me uncomfortable or just weren't fun. I've never felt more comfortable with a gym setting or working out in public!"
