What Some Parents are Saying
“I sought out the help of the Myokinetix when I injured my hip and quad area running track. Despite the severity of my injury, Myokinetix was able to aid me with a custom recovery plan that helped me regain control of my hip and build up the strength that I had lost. All of the doctors that I worked with were incredibly knowledgeable and knew exactly how to tackle my recovery after a series of tests and questions. They were also incredibly enthusiastic throughout the process and looked forward to helping me.The ENTIRE team at Myokinetix took a personal interest in her recovery to regain normal stability and strength again. She was provided with true one-on-one therapy sessions, along with an EXCEPTIONAL level of care and treatment. Even after a full recovery, their dedication to their patients did not end there. She was provided with post-training exercises to continue to stay fit and knowledge for injury prevention. Simply stated…this place is like no other!!
We are so grateful to this wonderful and amazing team of professionals and will highly recommend them to anyone seeking physical therapy in the future.”

“When both my kids came to Myokinetix they were sidelined with injuries. My son and daughter compete nationally in their respective sports with goals of playing D1. I take their training and rehab seriously and that’s why I chose Myokinetix. The team at Myokinetix immediately put a game plan in place to ensure that they would not only return to competition, but would return to competition stronger and better than before. They addressed all of our concerns and made sure that I understood the rehab approach.
Aside from the great personal care and attention, what I love most about Myokinetix is that they tailor the program to each athlete, and come up with creative exercises that translate to the sports. Injuries are inevitable with serious athletes so it’s important to have the right team in place to get you back on the field.
It’s simply the best physical therapy and performance place I’ve ever been to, and all I can say is that if you are an athlete or have a kid that is a serious athlete Myokinetix is who you want on your team. Smart, kind, compassionate, and knowledgeable. The BEST!”

“My experience at Myokinetix has been amazing. They took amazing care of me while I was in serious sciatic nerve pain. They quickly got me pain-free and back to working out. They also have helped my daughter deal with hip and back pain. They helped to keep her on the soccer field and improve her condition. I have had experience with all the PTs at the facility and they are all knowledgeable, kind, professional, and fun!”

What High School Athletes Are Saying
“I sought out the help of the Myokinetix when I injured my hip and quad area running track. Despite the severity of my injury, Myokinetix was able to aid me with a custom recovery plan that helped me regain control of my hip and build up the strength that I had lost. All of the doctors that I worked with were incredibly knowledgeable and knew exactly how to tackle my recovery after a series of tests and questions. They were also incredibly enthusiastic throughout the process and looked forward to helping me.
Myokinetix was well worth my time and investment as it offers a much more custom and hands-on approach than any other PT I have been to. Would definitely recommend them to anyone searching for physical therapy! These guys are the best in the business!”

“After tearing my ACL freshman year of high school and having reconstruction surgery, I was in physical therapy at two other places for almost a year. A few months after the first surgery, I had to go in for a second touch-up surgery because my knee was still giving me trouble. Months after this surgery I was still having problems and had to have a final OATS procedure. After this surgery, my surgeon recommended me to Myokinetix and I will be forever grateful that he did. I genuinely can’t say enough good things about the staff and facilities at Myokinetix. Before starting with them, my strength wasn’t where it needed to be and I was barely able to run a year after my first surgery. Within 2 months of me working with the Myokinetix staff, I was running again. Compared to the multiple other places I have worked at, Myokinetix makes sure that you know they are working with you to better yourself and get you to where you want to be after your rehab is done. As an athlete, this type of injury is definitely not an easy one to overcome but the team is always working with you to make sure that you are where you want and need to be. I would 100% recommend anyone who is in need of physical therapy to Myokinetix because they are honestly the best around. I am now in my senior year of High School and with the help of everyone at Myokinetix, I will hopefully be returning to the lacrosse field in the spring. ”

“I came into Myokinetix with a partially torn labrum and bicep tendon and was under the impression that I probably would need surgery. This surgery would ultimately have crushed my dream to play collegiate baseball. Once I had my first meeting I had a sense of hope. I previously went to other physical therapists who all took a different approach with my shoulder but lacked an answer to the questions of why. Questions such as Why am I doing this? And why should I do this exercise this way as opposed to a different way? All these questions had been answered thoroughly at Myokinetix. Throughout the past 6 months, I commuted 45 minutes to an hour, 2 times a week because this was the only place I felt genuinely benefited my performance and it was worth it 100%. I went from not being able to throw a baseball at the start, to being back to pitching within 3 months, and I owe it all to the people working at Myo. On top of the insane production they helped me through, it’s clear they build a family with all their young athletes. I would definitely recommend this to any young athlete trying to overcome an injury and get back on the field. You won’t be disappointed with the results and hospitality! ”
