We ensure that the physics of the body are optimized to get to the reason of why a problem may have come on slowly or something that may have been thrown off by injury or surgery. At BioMechanic Physical Therapy our techniques are founded in your body mechanics; from when your foot hits the ground then up through your knees, hips and beyond. Maybe you just need new shoes – not a knee operation. We can help sort that out. Our Doctors of Physical Therapy ensure that the physics of you are optimized to get to the reason of why you; 1. developed a problem that came on slowly or 2. what body mechanics may have been thrown off by your injury or surgery. We use precise tools to measure, our analytical minds to solve the problem , and our hands to restore you to perfect! Call today to schedule a free screening.

✨ Feeling tight, sore, or stuck with muscle pain? Dry Needling can help.

At BioMechanic PT, Trigger Point Dry Needling (TPDN) is one of the most effective tools we use to relieve stubborn muscle pain and restore movement.

✔️ Reduces Pain – Targets tight trigger points that cause discomfort and tension.
✔️ Improves Mobility – Helps muscles relax so joints can move the way they should.
✔️ Speeds Recovery – Promotes better blood flow and healing in irritated muscles.

Many of our patients notice immediate relief and improved movement after treatment. Whether you're dealing with neck pain, back tightness, sports injuries, or chronic muscle tension, dry needling can be a powerful part of your recovery plan.

If pain is limiting your movement, we’re here to help you get back to doing what you love. 💪

Shoulder pain is never just one joint.

Your shoulder is actually 4 joints working together as one system:
• Glenohumeral joint (ball & socket)
• Acromioclavicular (AC) joint
• Sternoclavicular (SC) joint
• Scapulothoracic joint (how your shoulder blade moves on your rib cage)

If even one of these isn’t doing its job, another joint pays the price — and that’s where pain shows up.

At BioMechanic PT, we don’t chase symptoms.
We assess all four joints, plus:
✔️ thoracic spine mobility
✔️ rib cage mechanics
✔️ posture and movement patterns
✔️ strength, control, and coordination

Because you can’t fix shoulder pain by treating the shoulder in isolation.

If you’ve tried:
– rest
– stretching
– injections
– “band exercises” that didn’t stick

…it’s time for a full shoulder assessment, not another guess.

👉 Your shoulder pain has a reason. Let’s find it.

At BioMechanic PT, continuing education isn’t optional — it’s part of our culture.

This past weekend, we had an incredible time hosting Great Lakes Seminars at our Virginia Beach location. Investing in advanced education allows our team to stay current, challenge our thinking, and continually refine how we care for our patients. Packed house!

Bringing high-level courses in-house means our clinicians can learn, collaborate, and immediately apply new knowledge — all with the goal of delivering the best possible outcomes.

Huge thanks to Great Lakes Seminars and our dedicated team for a great learning experience. This is how we keep raising the standard of care.

At BioMechanic Physical Therapy, we don’t just treat where it hurts — we look at the whole body.

Pain is often the result of compensation elsewhere, so we assess movement, strength, and stability from head to toe to find the true root cause.

Our goal isn’t quick fixes — it’s lasting results. Move better. Feel stronger. Stay pain-free.

✨ It’s one of those rare weeks where traditions overlap ✨

Ramadan, Lent, and Lunar New Year all arrive around the same time — reminding us that many cultures are thinking about reflection, renewal, and balance right now.

At BioMechanic PT, we see this season as a great moment to check in with your body:

• How is it moving?

• Where does it need support?

• What habits could use a reset?

Whether you’re fasting, feasting, or simply trying to keep up with daily life, mindful movement and good mechanics help you stay strong and pain-free.

Wishing everyone a season of health, intention, and forward momentum. 🌙🎉

Why we are here

We opened this location in the Oceanfront area of Virginia Beach in the spring of 2019 because we felt we needed to bring a new style of Physical Therapy to the area. A style of physical therapy that has earned us top awards in Northern Virginia since 2006! The owner, Dr. Lisa Allen, PT moved to Virginia Beach in 2015 and after listening to people’s stories of their experience of physical therapy here, decided that she needed to help these people by providing a better type of physical therapy. At BioMechanic we do not just give “packaged exercise plans” -- we focus on the entire physical condition and mechanics of the patient and use our hands. Yes, we actually touch our patients to restore proper joint kinematics (small and large motions needed for normal movement) and work on soft tissue by using massage. In addition to using both ancient and modern technology. We schedule one person per hour with a specific physical therapist so you see an actual licensed physical therapist every visit. Our Doctors of PT work with you themselves -- they don’t supervise 5 helpers and 5 patients all at once! That isn’t the way it is supposed to be! And that is why we get better results. One of the hardest things is to get people to believe that we really are different and we really can help you. So many people have tried so many places and so many things that they stop believing they can be helped. Well, try one more. We do offer Free 15 Minute Screenings, so it won’t even cost you anything to check us out. Call today 757-917-7857.
