Our PT Docs are experts in biomechanics or how the body is designed to move. They use manual therapy techniques to move and assess your joints to make sure they are operating at full capacity. They detect the source of the problem and create a plan to fix it so you can get back to LIFE! Anyone can Google exercises to strengthen areas of the body but not everyone has the clinical expertise that our PT Docs have!
Armed with advanced education in biomechanics, nothing compares to our abilities to customize your plan. Please contact us directly with any questions, comments, or scheduling inquiries you may have.

Her son, Keliikoa, goes to Nawahiokalaniopuu, a Hawaiian immersion school and he speaks fluent Hawaiian and English.

Summer is the manager of our Hilo clinic - by far all around kind of gal. From the beginning to the end she does it all not only in the clinic but also at home with her Ohana. This crazy mom of six loves spending time/being out and about cruising the island spending time with her Ohana, going to the beach to BBQ, fish, and look for shells.
When you call either of our clinics, chances are you'll speak to one of these lovely ladies. Sweet, professional, and they also keep you accountable! Naiya is our front desk receptionist; she is the first face you'll see upon entering our clinic, as well as the first voice you'll hear when you call our clinic!

I am an active senior with arthritis issues in my legs accelerated by prior multiple surgeries due to sports injuries. My Medicare would no longer cover on-going physical therapy that I feel I need. However, I was able to work out a program with Shauna, the owner of Big Island Physical Therapy that works within my budget, but also keeps me active and enables me to do more activities. Shauna is so supportive and enthusiastic and creative as she comes up with new plans each time for me to enhance my physical conditioning. And now with Covid 19- we have been doing on-line video program which works

It's was so nice ro walk-in for my appointment and feel positive energy. So welcomed and smiles on other patients and the staff. I was listened too and everything was well explained before it was done or I was even touched. The owner is an amazing, caring and even took time to listen to my concerns and problems for my health.
