Faith Reynolds

I had back pain that just kept getting worse. No results after 2 months of physical therapy. One visit with Dr. Barcomb and no more pain. I told him he is a miracle worker.

Our Physical Therapy Evaluation Process

During your first physical therapy visit, you can expect:

Comprehensive history and goal setting – We discuss your pain, function, and what you want to get back to doing.
Movement and posture assessment – We check how you move, stand, sit, and walk, identifying compensation patterns.
Strength, flexibility, and balance testing – To pinpoint specific deficits that need attention.
Review of imaging or reports (if available) – To ensure your therapy plan aligns with medical findings.
