At Salmon Bay Physical Therapy, we are dedicated to creating a healing environment for everyone who walks through our doors. Our core values help us in achieving this goal. We believe in treating everyone with compassion and respect. In accordance with this, we strive to treat people, not patients, as everyone has their own unique story and life experiences.
Nobody knows your body better than you. That is why at Salmon Bay Physical Therapy we engage in a collaborative care approach, working together to meet your rehabilitation goals. Our primary mission is to provide you effective and high-quality physical therapy treatment.

Physical therapy examines and treats musculoskeletal injuries in order to reduce pain and improve function/performance. We prescribe therapeutic exercises tailored to strengthen or lengthen muscles and/or stabilize a particular set of joints. In some cases we perform manual therapy in order to improve joint mobility, muscle extensibility and/or decrease pain.

My family and I have been working with physical therapists at Salmon Bay PT for about the last ten years through a wide variety of sports injuries. Their staff have been wonderful with our kids as they moved through elementary, middle and high school, and with my wife and I. While we have mostly worked with Grant and Claire, the other PTs we have seen have all been excellent. They take the time to understand the injury each person is rehabbing from, and to put together a clear program for recovery with milestones. We love how they clearly explain why each exercise or stretch is going to help with

Salmon Bay Physical Therapy provides impeccable service in every way. Working with Grant H. has resulted in my making measurable progress toward my goals and has boosted my overall sense of well-being, too! I appreciate the expert professionalism of the providers, the welcoming and friendly atmosphere of the treatment space, and the always-reliable scheduling and alerting processes. Definitely a "5-star" physical therapy experience.

Have been going to Salmon Bay PT for over a year now and couldn't have better things to say about the whole business and specifically about my PT Grant H. From soccer injuries to running injuries - and general 'you're getting old' injuries - I've always felt like I was in good hands, whether virtual or in person as we've had to stay flexible during the pandemic. I'm so glad SBPT is in our community and would recommend them to anyone I know with the forcefulness of a soccer kick from a healthy hip flexor!

Andi has been a joy to work with on my postpartum journey. My original reason to visit was for pelvic floor rehab and she really knows her stuff. She made me feel very comfortable and helped me understand both what my body was going through and how to work with it not against it as I was healing. She provided easy to do exercises at home that worked with the tools I have in the house and didn't overwhelm my new parent life. PLUS - She wanted to know the WHOLE picture! Postpartum recovery is never just one thing and little things crop up all the time. For the past months, she's helped the whole

I’m working with Nick on my lower back pain. Within a couple weeks, he found a simple exercise that immediately reduces my pain. He’s a great listener. We made a practical, sustainable, customized treatment plan. I also appreciate that he never implied my injuries are just because I’m out of shape or have a weak core. Very positive!

Grant did an very through bike fit with me and really took the time to explain in simple ways how and why he was adjusting everything! I essentially know nothing about bike maintenance or fitting and he was incredibly patient with me. Highly recommend he really knows his stuff and doesn’t rush you out the door!

Ishi was my therapist for a fractured right ankle. She provided excellent manual therapy to gain back my range of motion and we worked on regaining my muscular balance between my right and left legs. With a lot of hard work (it's up to you to do the exercises at home!), I have recovered from this injury and am back to participating fully in the sports I enjoyed previously. I also saw Sean as a substitute and he was equally great! Very pleased with my experience at Salmon Bay and highly recommend them!

The staff at Salmon Bay are demonstrated experts in their field. I've visited this clinic in different capacities over a couple of years, and always leave their programs feeling stronger and better suited for my physical activity goals. Their online platform is an incredible tool that makes following rehab PT easy and engaging. Videos, written instructions, and the ability to log your activity day by day makes it simple to stay on track and push your recovery further, faster. Grant always makes himself available to fine-tune my exercises to make sure I'm hitting the perfect balance of challenging
