Healthy Focus Physical Therapy opened in 2004 with the purpose of providing physical therapy care to women struggling with symptoms unique to them.
On the journey to provide better care for women our physical therapists have developed skills to treat problems of the pelvic floor muscles, pelvic pain, bladder and bowel control problems, painful intercourse and breast cancer recovery. Men and women suffer from pelvic floor disorders and pain so through the years we have added physical therapy for men.
In addition to the specialized care we give to women’s and men’s health conditions we offer care for spine and joint conditions, headaches and nerve pathologies as you would expect in a general physical therapy office.
What sets us apart are our manual therapy skills and special training with a treatment approach that integrates the whole body.
Each provider at Healthy Focus PT is dedicated to learning and growing their skills, and has pursued education that makes their care distinct, adding value to our health care team.
