Manual therapy is a hands-on treatment by clinicians to treat muscle aches, joint pain, and limited range of motion. Surgeons routinely refer pre- and post-surgical patients to our physical therapists to help them heal faster, recover strength, function and mobility. Chronic pain is pain that lasts more than several months (variously defined as 3 to 6 months, but certainly longer than "normal healing").
With the application of the latest clinical research, we can work hand-in-hand with your referring physician/surgeon to help you reach your full potential. Work conditioning programs focus on the activities that are similar to the physical demands required by a particular category of employment. Our fall prevention program can help help lower your risk of falling and getting hurt during daily activities.

Manual therapy is a hands-on treatment by clinicians to treat muscle aches, joint pain, and limited range of motion. It encompasses a variety of techniques including soft tissue mobilization of muscles, specific joint mobilization, and joint manipulation. Mobilization is a slower, more controlled process of articular and soft-tissue stretching intended to improve joint mobility.
Surgeons routinely refer post-surgical patients to our physical therapists to help them recover strength, function and mobility. Our therapists provide one-on-one, evidence-based physical therapy treatment sessions to help facilitate your recovery and return to activities of daily living (ADLs), work, recreational activities and even competitive sports.
Chronic pain is pain that lasts more than several months (variously defined as 3 to 6 months, but certainly longer than "normal healing"). It's a very common problem. About 25.3 million U.S. adults (11.2 percent) had pain every day for the previous 3 months. Individuals with severe pain had worse health, used more health care, and had more disability than those with less severe pain.
If you are a youth, collegiate, elite, or professional athlete, when you are injured, you need a physical therapist with experience rehabilitating sports-related injuries. Athletes place higher demands on the muscles and joints and also require sport-specific training to recover speed, power, and agility.
Patients that suffer from work-related injuries may meet the treatment goals of physical therapy but cannot return to work due to deconditioning (being out of shape). Personalized interventions are also provided to decrease the odds of re-injury upon return work.
Typically, these programs consist of personalized, full-body, intensive training with a focus on the activities that are similar to the physical demands required by a particular category of employment.

I have been to a few physical therapy offices however none compare to NORWOOD PHYSICAL THERAPY. I highly recommend. It was a real team
effort, however Ashley was my main therapist. She is professional, knowledgeable, caring (most of all listens and able to get the best from me).
Thank you Ashley.. thank you all for a job well done.

The therapists at Norwood Physical Therapy are amazing, I have been treated by most of the therapists there but Teri is my regular therapist. The environment is very warm and welcoming, as well as clean and organized. The clinics are very open, which allows for dynamic team treatment, with multiple therapists able to confer on the best treatment for an injury. The aides are always watching to make sure that you complete the exercises, and help you with any thing you need.

BEST CARE ANYWHERE! Great therapist-Ashlee, Teri, Annie, & Mike got me back in the game quickly. Very fun yet professional environment which is obvious as soon as you walk through the door. Many thanks to the entire staff especially the front office staff. They went out of their way to make sure my insurance and co pays were aligned with my coverage and the receptionist went above and beyond to meet and work within my hectic work and travel schedule. Super professional, super efficient and very personal.

This is my second go around with Norwood PT for shoulder and neck pain. I find the staff to be very kind, caring and professional. Annie is my physical therapist now and Teri worked with me in the past. Both are exceptional physical therapists that are knowledgeable and attentive to their patients' needs. Talented group at NPT that treats everyone like family!

I started going to Norwood PT for my lower back injury after a recommendation from a family member. My physical therapist is excellent. Always attentive and asks for symptom updates during each visit to track my progress. She developed a strengthening plan with a multitude of exercises and stretches, which has improved my physical condition dramatically. It is clear that she truly cares about her patients’ outcomes. I find the environment and equipment clean and well maintained. The other physical therapists are friendly and helpful. The owner is a practicing physical therapist, and you can regularly

My daughter and I have both been to Norwood Physical Therapy for treatment. We both could not be more pleased. All of the physical therapists were professional and caring. With my inconsistent work& family schedule, I worked with several of their therapists but I always felt they all were on the same page...knowing my progress and implementing new more challenging exercises. Plus, it was a fun and light atmosphere making it a part of my day that I actually looked forward to! Front desk staff was always very flexible when I needed to reschedule upcoming appointments and helpful when dealing with

This is hands down the best physical therapy around. It's small, relaxed, and everyone is treated as if they are family. If you ever have a concern (like no plan, no goals, or feel rushed) they are kindly resolved by simply asking a question. The staff is extremely competent, although they don't read minds like the poor review would have liked. I will continue to go here and refer people as this place is amazing! Thank you Norwood PT!

My daughter needed physical therapy and we were referred to NPT. I can not express how happy and satisfied I was with the level of treatment she received. They have extensive experience dealing with children's injuries and their upbeat attitude immediately put my daughter at ease.
I wholeheartedly recommend Norwood Physical Therapy for your family's PT needs.

I decided on Norwood Physical Therapy because of the proximity to where I was living and I'm glad that I did. There are several options within the greater Norwood area, however what I like most about N.P.T. is that they give you excellent care and attention to detail. They have the one-to-one feel of a small business, but still have all the latest technology of a large company. I have been too other physical therapy places and I felt like they wanted to get me in and out as quickly as possible.
The staff is very friendly and always accommodating. They are flexible with scheduling appointments
