Physical therapy is a method of treatment focused on both the healing and prevention of injuries and chronic disabilities. Physical therapy focuses largely on relieving pain, promoting healing, and restoring the loss of function, strength, and movement that are associated with injury. Other areas within physical therapy are bio-mechanical evaluation and training, fitness and wellness, as well as education and prevention.

The staff at this clinic were so fun to work with. They were great conversationalists and kept my time here positive, laughing and fun. The therapist are competent, willing to do the work with you and never make you feel stupid if you don't do it correctly every time. I learned that I am independent, my health is in my hands.
The purpose of the clinic is to inform customers of their runner's anatomy, injuries and how to prevent/recover from injuries. Orrock & Mendenhall Professional Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine will also help runners understand their gait pattern and can help determine if orthopedic and inserts are right for them.

The whole team start to feel like friends and family. You’ll learn all their names and they will know yours.

I was referred to this clinic from family friends who were avid runners and got great results. I am a very active individual, but tore my ACL in a hiking fall. I had a patella autograph. I have been SUPER satisfied with my progress. Based upon discussions with friends and family who had the same surgery, I’m already way ahead of where they were at my stage now. I’m m4 weeks out and I feel fabulous! My flexion and extension are excellent! I feel positive about my rehab and outlook on my future activity. They are very fun, professional, and caring. All my sessions have been awesome and never
