“When he handed me Nick Rinard’s card, my chiropractor said he sends his difficult cases to him.
I had persistent back pain that didn’t respond to chiropractic treatments or traditional physical therapy.
With pain being a great motivator, I called Nick’s office.
My path to recovery wasn’t a straight one.
To my surprise I need a total hip replacement. Nick was with me every step of the way and provided a personalized treatment plan both pre-and post- surgery.
Nick helped me navigate the path from debilitating pain to regaining function.
I can now about basic day-to-day activities like sleeping, getting out of bed, sitting, standing, going up and down stairs, and making through the entire grocery store.
I feel strong and bolder both physically and mentally.
Nick understands that physical therapy is more than just physical.
It is also about hope.”

“I had seen a previous PT for a few visits and didn’t feel any better – I thought my sprained ankle was a lost cause.
On my first visit with Dr. Rinard, he diagnosed my issue and provided immediate relief.
I had several PT appointments and felt constant improvement.
I’m back to running and playing volleyball and I could have done it without his help/patience/understanding and knowledge.
Thank you so much! ”

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 were great to work with!”
