Give your body a quick boost before you go.
A short warm-up and a little strength work can be the difference between an epic day on the hill and feeling wiped out afterward.

Did you know you can actually save big by choosing a privately-owned physical therapy clinic over a hospital system?

Here’s the deal: Hospital-based PT visits often cost 2–3x more than the exact same treatment at an independent clinic.

Why?
Some hospital-based facilities charge additional fees, such as facility fees, in addition to the actual treatment.
Privately owned clinics keep it simple, efficient, and patient-focused.

So, if you love Black Friday deals, skip the inflated prices and choose care that’s better for your body and your wallet.

Now that’s a real Black Friday win in our opinion.

You show up with grit, humor, trust, and a whole lot of heart, and we never take that for granted.

We’re grateful for every laugh, every “wait…you want me to do what!?, and every milestone you let us cheer for.
You make our work meaningful.

Wishing you a cozy, joyful Thanksgiving with the people who fill your cup (and maybe a plate of something delicious, too).
