I was having issues from sitting 8-10 hours a day at my computer and not moving enough causing major leg and lower back pain. I went to Leading Edge for 2-3 times a week for 3 months and have had great results! They provide a personalized plan and are very attentive to your status and comments during every session. I learned that you have to be vocal of where the pain is and what movements cause the pain...staying silent or thinking you are being tough by not being vocal will not help your therapist. You will receive 'homework' from them to help with your progress which I will continue to do to

Hands down, Leading Edge is the BEST Physical Therapy office ...from the front office to the therapists to the equipment they use for YOUR results ...Results that you see and feel immediately because they work to achieve what YOU need and they strive for you to get back to living Life with mobility, with flexibility and with strength. The hip surgery gave me a new hip but the real results came from Leading Edge Physical Therapy.
Thanks, Mike, Stacey, Susan, Kim, Hannah and the smiling front office staff, Jodi and Natalie. You all made it happen. Thank you so much!

I would give 10 stars if I could!!! The staff at Leading Edge are simply the best!!! Everyone is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. From the time you walk through the door you feel like you’re a VIP. Their treatments and equipment are top notch. Everyone gets a personal treatment plan and homework assignments. I would definitely recommend Leading Edge should you have a need for physical therapy.

I had injured myself at work and was referred to Leading Edge. From my first visit to my last, I was treated with the utmost respect, listened to and instructed on how to better my wrist.
After completing my visits, I felt so much better and haven't had any further issues. Of course, should I ever need physical therapy in the future, I know Leading Edge will be the only choice for me.

I highly recommend Leading Edge for anyone in need of physical therapy. The staff is world class. They are friendly, compassionate and empathetic. Of course the results speak for themselves. Although my shoulder is not 100% yet, it feels MUCH better than when I started therapy about a month ago and am confident it will be because of the staff at Leading Edge.

Love the staff at leading edge. They took great care of my shoulder in the office and gave me great exercises to do at home that helped me regain my shoulder strength back. Every therapist I worked with was friendly and accommodating! Highly recommend.

Leading Edge Physical Therapy…A professional, highly skilled team that utilizes state-of-the-art equipment and therapy techniques to achieve successful outcomes for their patients' specific physical needs.
During my multiple weeks of physical therapy, I had the privilege of receiving therapy from almost all LE Team members. I quickly appreciated the change-ups because it allowed each team member to assess my progress to ensure that my chances of obtaining the highest level of recovery were the greatest. The entire staff is excellent. A special note of thanks to Brook and Kim for letting me push

I have been to 4 physical therapy clinics in the last 5 years. I completed 2 sessions here, one for knees, one for shoulder. Leading Edge's methodology is unique and worth your experience. Mike Ryan is a dedicated professional who works along side other therapists in the business.
PROS: Therapy robots give massage and did great things for my knee/leg/arthritis issues within a short period of time. No other therapy place combined robot and human massage to the therapy. They are adept at locating the specific muscles & pressure points. There are some talented therapists on board. They
