Orthopedic rehabilitation is the foundation of what we do. Utilizing a global integration/movement based approach we can address complex factors restricting your ability to perform the activities you want to perform.

If you're recovering from surgery, a work, repetitive use or sport related injury, our thorough evaluations and treatment approaches to rehabilitation get you back to the desired level of function and reduce pain in the most efficient manner possible.Efficient, authentic and proper movement patterns are key in orthopedics.
Augmented Soft Tissue Mobilization treatment is provided by a certified licensed professional.

This review is overdue, but my gratefulness to Eric and his attentive team will never expire. I was in need of PT and knew my experience elsewhere had not been successful. To my surprise upon my first visit, my heel injury was diagnosed accurately and treatment began that day and continued for 5 weeks; at which time I was healed, released and back to running. Eric is extremely knowledgeable and has the ability to explain how and why the injury happened and the weaknesses in the body that need strengthening. If another injury should occur, APT will be my go-to clinic, offering many modalities of

New to the Ahwatukee area and recently pulled a hamstring walking in the icy parking lot to the mountain in Colorado skiing. My physician referred me to Ahwatukee PT. Taylor scheduled me in for the following day with Gary Goss. We got right into evaluating the injury and developing a game plan. Recently retired and no spring chicken at 67, things started off slowly but with regular sessions, 4 weeks later I’m back at the gym on my daily workout routine.
Thank you Gary, Dan, Kaylee and all the support staff at Ahwatukee PT.

All the staff was highly professional, knowledgeable and friendly! Eric provided an accurate assessment and treatment plan which he could explain clearly. Under his leadership, I received regular checks and evaluation of my progress. I definitely felt better in my knee after treatment here.

If you're looking for a great physical therapist in Ahwatukee, look no further than Eric Burness at Ahwatukee Physical Therapy. I was having a lot of problems with my back and then my knee. I went to another physical therapist for several weeks and was getting nowhere. I cannot thank him enough for getting my back and knee problems straightened out. Eric can do adjustments, manipulations and customize your PT to get you feeling better.

I feel I had some great therapy there and will highly recommend any of you to anyone that might need it! I have also been working out with my gym and they were the ones that recommended APT to me and also they have been working with me to strengthen the shoulder area and also recuperate. W/out the therapy though, I doubt it would have been as expeditiously healed as it was! Truly awesome.
Thanks all of you for the wonderful therapy! Please extend the kudos to everyone; Connor, the front desk receptionist, was also very kind and pleasant!!

My primary care physician referred me to Eric to treat hip pain from an old injury. I have returned to him from time to time for many years to help me get back on track when needed. Eric is knowledgeable, professional, pleasant, and intuitive. I appreciate that Eric and his team provide personalized attention and employ a variety of techniques to promote comfort, strength, stability and mobility.

I highly recommend Ahwatukee Physical therapy if you need physical therapy! Eric and his staff - Julie, Kaeli, Stephanie, and Connor - are outstanding! I was made to feel welcome on my first visit. They listen to you and address your needs in a compassionate and supportive manner! My primary doctor recommended them to me, and I am so glad that she did! Such a personable, dedicated, and professional staff!

My husband has done remarkable with Eric, Julie and staff. After his aretial hip replacement, the results have been super. Should you need physical therapy, I strongly believe in the attention and support given to your specific needs. Thanks everyone. We could have not done it without the entire team.
Many of us have choices, make the right choice.

Couldn't ask for a better experience with caring, knowledgeable, and thorough staff. Eric and his group are incredible. My daughter has done so well under their care. They are consistently on time, sensitive to how she's feeling, and responsive to her needs as she gets stronger. Our pediatrician recommended this group and I can see why!
