See a Physical Therapist First

PT can help you get your life back again- avoiding painkillers, surgeries, injections, and multiple trips to doctor's offices.

Physical Therapists are specialized in helping people avoid and treat pain, so you should definitely see us first before other interventions. However, it is not a quick fix, and in addition to the therapist, patients also have to put in the work in order to get their desired results.

Here at PRO-Tek, we have a manually-based therapist, who focuses on manual work with a specialty in myofascial release. If you are still unsure and hesitant, give us a call today to speak to our Physical Therapist to decide if PT is right for you.

Recovery begins with a free phone consult, call us today!
