We are excited to announce the newest addition to our team, Laura Mizumoto, DPT. Laura recently moved to Gig Harbor from Seattle. We look forward to having her as part of the Grant Spangle Family, and we know you will too. We opened on 9/1/1980, becoming the first physical therapy clinic in the Gig Harbor area.
Forty years later, we are still going strong, thanks to patients like you! We love our Gig Harbor community and look forward to many more years of meeting your physical therapy needs! We are taking everyone's health very seriously and are doing our best for the clinic to be sanitized constantly throughout the day, while also putting into practice social distancing while in the clinic.

Cheri received her masters in sports medicine from the University of Washington in 1976, went on to become the head women's athletic trainer for the University of Southern California, then completed her physical therapy degree from Children's Hospital of Los Angeles. Upon returning to Washington, she started the first physical therapy private practice in Gig Harbor in 1980.
Strain and Counterstrain, originally called "positional release technique, " was developed in 1955 by an osteopathic physician named Lawrence Jones. He is one of the co-founders of the Jones Institute. In observing a skilled Strain and Counterstrain practitioner you will immediately be impressed with how gentle and non-traumatic this technique is for treating the painful patient.

I have the highest praise for my physical therapist, Laura Mizumoto. I came in with severe sciatica and lower back pain and she was able to quickly identify specific issues that triggered my pain. Laura created a personalized plan that over time, relieved the pain and more importantly, showed me how to strengthen my body at home and in the gym to avoid future injury. The entire staff at Grant Spangle PT are dedicated, courteous and super friendly!

I have been going to Grant Spangle for years. After each surgery or injury. They have been so helpful in each recovery. My last visits were for a shoulder injury. Laura Mizumoto was so good to work with. Every visit felt like time with family. I would highly recommend Laura.
The entire team at Grant Spangle is top notch.

I have been seen here for over a year for lower back pain. The therapist are great and so is the support staff. I have gotten the greatest benefit from my therapist Laura Mizumoto, she helped me shack off the morning stiffness and on to a better quality of sleep. I am so pleased with the results that I am coming back for knee rehab after my total knee replacement surgery.

I've been coming here for the last year after a significant foot surgery, and I look forward to every appointment! The team here is caring, warm and great at their jobs. The friendly atmosphere is healing for the spirit as much as it is healing for your actual ailment. I would 100% recommend this place!!

I am 6 months pregnant and I have had sever back pain for about 5 days. Nothing was helping and I was losing even more sleep than I normally do. Everyone inside seemed very friendly and happy to be there. The gal at the front desk was very nice when checking in and while making a follow up appointment. I feel so much better after my visit. I can sit down without cringing and walk normally. My pain went from about a 7 to a 2. Thank you so much! Definitely recommend.
