At Integral Physical therapy we are passionate about keeping our community healthy by bringing integrity, transparency and social responsibility back to healthcare. We are proud to offer our patients expert advice, detailed education and evidence-based/patient centered care. We work with everyone - from professional athletes looking to enhance their performance, to those with chronic pain who have been let down by the medical system.
Physical therapy involves any care that is delivered by a physical therapist. This scope of care ranges from health promotion, wellness and fitness services to rehabilitation of musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, cardiopulmonary, genitourinary and integumentary disorders. The primary goal of therapy is to help individuals optimize function without the need for surgery, medication or other expensive medical procedures.
With exceptional service and evidence-based care we serve everyone within our communities in a warm, comforting environment. We provide the highest quality professional physical therapist services with consideration for all of our stakeholders. We believe in caring for the under-served and promoting wellness and self-efficacy.
Pain is the most common reason people seek advice from their physician and one in five adults suffer from chronic pain (persistent pain). Despite these staggering numbers, the healthcare community has struggled to provide effective treatments to address the chronic pain from which millions of people suffer.
Neurologic physical therapy involves detailed examination and evaluation of the human movement system to identify and address impairments related to illness or injury to the nervous system. Physical therapy can help to restore mobility, function and independence. Physical therapy can even increase your safety by improving balance and reducing fall risk.

Dr. Paul Bernard is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. When I stated Physical Therapy I could barely look over my right shoulder. Dr. Paul is very passionate about his work and is very compassionate about his patients. Tonya who works the front desk is amazing as well! I would highly recommend Dr. Paul Bernard and staff.

My son-in-law had experience with Integral Physical Therapy and encouraged me to give them my business. He had high praise for them and I can attest to their professionalism, courtesy,, and genuine interest in clients. The entire staff is top notch from the front desk to students in training. I give them a well deserved A+ and will use them again if in need.

I have extreme vertigo, once I went into your office I received the most outstanding care and I've been to physical therapy in my past years. This place is phenomenal I have to make sure that somebody in management recognizes Scott knoll. He is my main therapist and he blows me away Paul Bernard and Angie rowlett also need recognition. I've never ever looked forward to see a doctor or a physical therapist or anything like that. I enjoy going in there and they are doing miracles with me I don't even know how to think I'm going to. I hope management thanks them greatly for me.

I can’t say enough good things about this office! From the moment you walk in and meet Tonya, she makes you feel welcome. She is such a kind woman who has such a big smile ( even under her mask) and quickly learned my name.
I had the opportunity to work on my back and shoulder issues with Paul and Ian. They were phenomenal! Many of my issues seemed to have stemmed from a sensitive issue but they were always so professional, easy to talk to and made me feel comfortable. They always asked and included me on my treatment plan, opposed to just telling me what to do to get better. They are amazing

I came to Integral Physical Therapy for Hip and Back issues. I had back surgery (L5 A1 fusion) and had a set back with hip and back strength. Ian helped put together a program that got my strength back. I can now incorporate this into my regular exercise routine. Everyone was great at Integral Physical Therapy and Ian was awesome and made PT fun. If I need PT in the future I will be back to Integral Physical Therapy.

I had injuries to both feet last summer, and was prescribed physical therapy when I was able. I chose the location in Firestone. I am very impressed with the facility and staff. Gloria scheduled my appointments so they were both convenient and timely. Paul was my therapist, and made it possible for me to gain strength, flexibility, and reduce pain. I am well on my way to recovering my previous ability to carry on a normal life style thanks to them.

Great team, great service!
I've looked to Chris Edmundson and his team twice now in the last couple years and they have come through for me both times! With both injuries, I was in a bit of a rush to get back to normal activities. Chris provided excellent spot treatment, and he also gave me an exercise regimen each time that helped me get back to par as soon as possible. I agreed to several dry needle treatments for a muscular hip injury most recently and was pleasantly surprised at how effective they were in speeding my healing process. Thanks for the great work, Chris and team! I highly

What a blessing to have such a wonderful staff of physical therapists right here in Firestone! Suzie and Scott took excellent care of two of my kids when they were experiencing back pain and knee/hip pain, while Gloria took care of us in the office by being one of the nicest people one the face of the planet. We finished up our care a couple of weeks ago and the kids were just saying how much they miss seeing everyone at Integral...not that they want to be in pain, again, though!

Chris, Monica, and Jennifer are the most passionate physical therapists that I've ever been to. April 2016, I had my coccyx ( tailbone) removed. Without the help of this team, I may not have been able to heal properly. They understood the long road that I had ahead of me. For the next several months, all three from this team were there for me. I had major ups and downs. In February 2017, I fell on black ice and had tweaked my body good enough to not hurt my sacrum from the fall. Instead, I ended up falling on my arm and having two inches of my bicep cut off during open surgery. I have been

Chris Edmundson started treating me after a serious injury. I'd previously seen 3 physical therapists (each highly recommended by my doctors) and still was struggling to walk without a limp after a mile or so. After a few weeks of seeing Chris my pain had seriously decreased and now over a year later I can hike 12 miles without limping and am planning a backpacking trip this summer. I also have been able to restart other physical activity like rock climbing that I had not been able to do because of the constant pain. It has been such an enormous difference and I am so so happy to be living
