Patient Satisfaction is Our Top Priority at Saunders Therapy Centers - Here is What Our Patients Say:. I came in September after suffering a knee injury at work as a ramper for Southwest Airlines. In the beginning I had trouble bending my leg, kneeling, and squatting. After weeks of different stretches and weights I wasn't making any improvements.
Saunders clinicians use sophisticated techniques to treat all disorders of the musculoskeletal system: bones, joints, muscles, nerves and connective tissues. We use hands-on techniques to promote pain relief and improved function. We are experts at detecting movement disorders and muscular imbalances, which are often the root cause of many orthopedic conditions - especially the problems that last a long time or keep coming back.
Saunders Therapy Centers clinicians are experienced in treating the complexity of the spine and provide effective, case-specific management of acute and chronic neck (cervical spine) problems. Cervical spine pain can be the result of a single event or trauma, or the result of a combination of factors including poor posture, declining physical fitness, and/or repetitive activities, including faulty lifting, bending, or twisting.

Ethan and his crew were phenomenal in helping me regain my endurance to return to work after an injury! My primary trainer Ty Z., was professional, knowledgeable and very helpful- Everyone there was very friendly! They dealt well with my "care team", and handled my temporary claim issues fantastically. The facilities were clean and well kept. I definitely recommend them to anyone seeking treatment before returning to work!

I attended Saunders St. Paul for a 3 day FCE evaluation. These people are top notch!! I honestly can't say enough good things about my experience with them. I had already had a bad experience at another facility and I was beyond frustrated when I was referred to Saunders St. Paul, Minnesota location. I actually flew from out of state to attend the FCE evaluation due to the high recommendations I had received from multiple resources. I finally felt hopeful and positive after day 2 of the evaluation. The staff is exceptional! They are professional, knowledgeable, understanding, motivational, patient

I went to the Saunders St. Paul site for a workability assessment after being referred by my physical therapist. I have had workability assessments in the past due to an ongoing medical condition. This one was different, though it had many similar elements. I felt that my evaluator, Ethan, took notable care to develop an evaluative process that took into account the complexities of both my medical history and my employment situation -- both of which have multiple elements that are unique and highly specific to me. I felt that I underwent an accurate test of my abilities and of how they intersect

My mom goes to therapy at Saunders that is located in St . Paul. I love the people there. I have been taking my mom there for about 5 months . The first time I took her there she was in a very bad shape and she was not able to walk. With the help of Ethan Capers my mom now is able to walk . I’m very happy with the amazing job he has done. Great customer service !

The clinic is professional and I have an excellent therapist who is kind and compassionate and truly a lovely person inside. The office staff are also a "class-act" that is so rare to find these days. Thank you!
