The quality of Physical Therapy is based on the individual therapist assigned to you. Reviewing PT establishments is akin to reviewing a hair salon. The evaluation is molded by the person working with you. At Vita I was fortunate to be assigned to Joe. He is cerebral and knowledgeable with an eclectic array of skills. His multi-faceted approach is ideal for someone such as myself, as templates never fit. I am not the norm. Joe understands movement, strength, body manipulation, and the gestalt of health. My aches, inflexibility, and aging are handled with analysis, searching for what in his bag of tricks will work best. Joe is like a Zen Master, and I leave Vita feeling exponentially better.The facility itself is clean, modern and comfortable, with enough space to feel private. Jennifer, Barit, and Gina, the front desk staff, greet you with a down to earth welcome, but they are also worldly, in a refreshing manner. My conversations are always enlightening, plus they are organized and keep the scheduling together. They use technology to make everything seamless.I have encountered PT in an array of cities throughout the United States. Vita is the best of them all.

Vita has made a difference in my life. I have been to multiple places for P.T. through many surgeries and nobody compares. Their dry needling has given me more movement in my neck and shoulders than I've had in decades. They take the time to listen, and come up with plans specifically for me. The therapists are wonderful and caring. I can't imagine where I'd be today if I didn't find Vita. Thanks for helping me get my life back.

Very friendly and helpful staff, Laura was always very welcoming and genuinely interested in my well-being. Brad is a skilled Manual Physical therapist,I had a good time working with him to manage my back pain issues. Upon being discharged from therapy I felt confident that I knew what I needed to do to manage it on my own. I also had a chance to work with Julie, a personal trainer who is very knowledgeable in the area of running gait analysis and general physical fitness. She covered goal setting, nutrition and metabolic processes that are at play with my personal weight loss and fitness goals. A very knowledgeable group.
