The Center for Physical Therapy was opened by Dr. Tourage Rafeei in 2000 after a back injury inspired him to go after physical therapy as a career. After learning his back injury would need spinal fusion surgery, Dr. Rafeei asked for a second opinion and was referred to a physical therapy program that successfully treated his injury without surgery.
As an orthopedic clinic, our therapists provide physical therapy evaluation and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders and injuries. We also provide sports medicine and evaluations. Dry needling is a technique used by physical therapists that uses needles to stimulate muscle trigger points in order to help heal and rehabilitate dysfunctional muscles and the surrounding area.
Whether you are recovering from surgery or suffering from a sports or work-related injury, physical therapy focuses on treating or rehabilitating your musculoskeletal system to improve daily functioning and activity. Physical therapy can also help decrease pain and increase flexibility, mobility and strength so you can return to recreational activities and sports.

I made an appointment after suffering from a weight lifting injury that had been lingering for > 4 years. Dr. Rafeei (and his team) helped educate me on how I could change my exercise routine to help the injury heal. Along with a routine of icing, stretching, scraping and rolling, I was pain free within about 3 months.
I would highly recommend this business in it’s entirety!

I am practicing dentist who was starting to develop some neck soreness due to years of working a busy schedule every day. An orthopedic surgeon I know recommended I meet with Dr. Rafeei at the Center for Physical Therapy. His staff was able to answer my questions and get me scheduled the same week that I called. Dr Rafeei was excellent from the first appointment. He was thorough in his examination and also took time to listen to my symptoms and personal situation. Once we began treatment I noticed an immediate improvement and over the course of several sessions I was able to move on to a home routine

I can't say enough good things about my experience! The therapists and staff truly listen to their patients and treat them like family. I was referred by my chiropractor for a pinched nerve in my neck as well as vertigo symptoms. Dr. Rafeei communicated with my chiropractor often and I felt like my care was a team effort. My 13 year old daughter was also referred for back issues related to scoliosis. Janie took excellent care of her and made her feel comfortable from the very beginning. She also communicated with our chiropractor often. Dr. Rafeei and Janie educated us throughout our treatment

If you like to receive personalized treatment you should choose this place. All staffs and therapists treat you with respect and you provide you excellent care. Unlike other chain therapy centers, you are their patient here and not the visit. This place is great for post op rehab as well as chronic pain. I have been here twice for post knee sugriers and once for overall weakness and I have gained valuable independent after being discharged.
Thank you to Dr. Rafei and his staffs.

I was referred to the Center for Physical Therapy and could not be more appreciative of my experience regarding my overall status and changes in my knee- I am very grateful for this opportunity as the staff take their time to evaluate thoroughly, are courteous and friendly, and take time to advise and work with you as you work towards the end goal of restored functionality and healing. Rating 5 stars.

I had knee replacement surgery in March 2019 and was referred to the Center for Physical Therapy by my orthopedist. I started April 1st and went twice a week for about 14 weeks. I was back to work after 6 weeks. I must say John and his crew did an outstanding job of coordinating the therapy, instructing me on what exercises to do at home and the gym and they greatly assisted me in a speedy recovery. Was it easy? No, I had major surgery and my knee hurt like hell. Did they do everything possible to help me? Absolutely! The reception staff, therapist and assistants were all great, they knew me by
