As we celebrate over three decades of dedicated service, we invite you to join us on a journey of innovative rehabilitation and fitness. Our expertise spans a wide spectrum, from performing arts medicine and pilates physical therapy to sports injury recovery, surgery rehabilitation, aquatic physical therapy, pilates fitness, and pilates certification.

Here's the exciting part: You don't need to be a dancer to experience the incredible benefits of pilates physical therapy. We firmly believe that movement is medicine, and we're here to help you harness its power. Our team specializes in treating all orthopedic conditions, and our patients span a wide age range, from 7 to 100. 

 

I'm Dr. Melinda Bryan, PT, DPT, the Director and a Certified Principal Master Pilates Teacher Trainer, and I'm thrilled to welcome you into our community. Let's embark on this journey toward better health and well-being together. Your transformation begins here!
