About Pain Management
Pain Management at Active Physical Therapy
Living with pain does not need to be your way of life. Your body’s expression of pain will be different from other clients’ pain. Our team listens carefully to what you’re experiencing, observes your pain areas, and will use manual techniques to better understand what’s causing you pain. We do not believe in the idea of “no pain, no gain.” In fact, it’s our mission to relieve the pain and give you back your life.
What Causes Pain?
- Accident or injury
- Medical conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, or cancer
- May be without any clear incident

Client Feedback
Active Physical Therapy Testimonials
I have went through PT at another location for months and realized I wasn’t making any progress. Coming to Active PT was like night and day – I learned more about my injury/body then I did in months at the other pt. You have to be willing to do the work but I could feel more confident
and building strength so I could function normally. I cannot recommend Active PT enough if you want to regain your life back. They are a knowledge and caring staff!
