After having chronic pain from arthritis for more than 25 years, when I experienced debilitating back pain for several months, it was difficult to have hope in its improvement. After 8 sessions with Dr Groves, the pain was gone and I could return to all my previous exercises (body pump, water aerobics, Pilates). He is Great!

I would recommend Groves PT to others because of their training and clear instruction with research supported information on exercises as well as dismissing various myths and unsupported approaches.

Other PT places I’ve gone to were unfriendly and cold. At Groves PT, I laughed at every visit. They were friendly, down to earth and actually made PT enjoyable.

Since coming to Groves PT, I have achieved greater strength in my body. My legs feel stronger when walking. Dr Garrigues is a fun therapist to work with and the home exercises help me too! In the past, Dr Garrigues worked on my shoulder with equally successful results.

Orthopaedic physical therapy practice emphasizes the prevention, identification, assessment, minimization, and correction of pain and disability due to acute or prolonged musculoskeletal impairment. This includes post-surgical as well as non-surgical conditions. The goal of treatment is to promote optimal health and function. A physical therapist may use a variety of interventions to diminish pain, impairments and disability associated with orthopaedic disorders.
Examples of some commonly used interventions include manual physical therapy, therapeutic exercise as well as ergonomic intervention and education. Therapists who are board certified as Orthopaedic Clinical Specialists by the American Physical Therapy Association are optimally trained and educated to effectively deal with orthopaedic disorders.
Who Will Benefit?
Patients who have acute and chronic low-back and neck pain, muscle-tension headaches, general arthritic complaints, hip and knee osteoarthritis, shoulder pain, and muscle strains and joint sprains will benefit from orthopaedic physical therapy intervention. In addition, post-surgical rehabilitation is critical for successful recovery from operations such as anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, total hip and knee replacement, shoulder decompression, and a variety of spine surgical procedures to name a few.
Where To Go?
At Groves PT we specialize in non-operative and post-surgical orthopaedic care. Our physical therapists are leaders in the field and include board certified and fellowship trained specialists. Most importantly we tailor our expertise to meet your needs and goals for health.
