Nick Rinard Physical Therapy- where patients come to get results from physical therapy!
“I had lower back pain for the past 4 years & previous physical therapy visits & exercises only had temporary results.
After only 6 visits I can go back to my regularly scheduled daily HIT classes.
I’m so confident that if I had another pain issue in the future I can come back to Nick & get it fixed.”

We can get you back to walking, exercising, running, enjoying your sport again….
“I had horrible knee pain that was keeping me from being a mobile as I wanted.
Even just going up and downstairs even hurt.
Dr. Rinard was amazing- best PT experience I’ve ever had.
Exercises were easy to do + only had once/week appointments after the first week.
I can no go down stairs with no pain, one legged lunges without pain, play tennis without pain, + do 5K walks or more without knee pain.
THANK YOU ALL!”

Results from the heart.
Thank you Terry for sharing!
“Sometime ago, I was injured rather severely, causing a constant agonizing nerve pain. A nurse at the hospital where I was examined recommended Diagnostic Physical Therapy; namely Nick Rinard and his associates.
Under Nick’s careful supervision, these highly trained professionals diagnosed my condition and started treatment immediately, and gave explicit instructions for exercises I was to do at home between visits.
Not only did the pain improve, but also my mental outlook, as the world suddenly seemed a worthwhile place to be. Sessions took place daily at first, then weekly, and eventually my condition was so much improved that I can now live a normal life.
Nick and his team of professionals have achieved a level of care and skill I had not previously seen, with a superb knowledge of the human body, especially the arts and sciences associated with muscle, bone, nerve and sinew, as well as an unexpected understanding of one’s mental and spiritual outlook.”

Nick Rinard Physical Therapy: Physical Therapy as IT SHOULD BE!
“I came into the office because of neck pain and lack of range looking most directions.
Nick quickly diagnosed the issue and gave me simple exercises and stretches to re-align my neck and allow it to heal.
In the week after the first visit, I almost fully recovered range of motion and had reduced pain.
After 4 visits, I’m pain free and have full range of motion!
I have easy exercises to continue to hopefully maintain my status.
Nick and all of the staff ere great to work with!”

What a year to review!
Are you having shoulder pain?
“After surgery on my left shoulder I needed a ton of help regaining movement & strength.
I can do pretty much everything that I could do before my injury now – which I didn’t expect would be possible so THANK YOU SO MUCH!“
Amanda
Are you having low back pain?
“I came after severe back pain. I was not able to bend over, walk for extended time, or sit without pain.
Right away I had better results from doing the exercises I was shown then I had ever had with my previous therapist.
I feel like we went at a good pace and throughout my treatment I have been able to increase my overall activity and quality of life.
I have been given the knowledge and tools I need to manage my pain on my own and my back pain has greatly improved!”
Danielle
Are you having knee pain?
“I chose to come here because I read such great reviews.
After reading just a few, I knew this was the place where I needed to be.
I came for my knee, but after completing physical therapy for it, it feel like a lot more than just my knee has improved.
I have better knowledge of mind and body connection, much better balance, and my whole body is stronger overall.
This office has great energy and everyone who needs physical therapy should come here! ”
Ronnie
Failed back surgery?
“I was recommended to investigate the McKenzie Method for my recover, especially as my pain had greatly increased and did not seem to be improving.
The PT folks I was seeing at that time recommend that I check you all out as practitioners of this method. Although eventually we all concluded that a follow up surgery to replace my disk is necessary.
I have much more confidence that I will be able to live a life pain-free, or much reduced.
At the moment I can stand straighter than before, can drives for a short distance if necessary, and better manage my own pain w/o opioids.”
