Why Patients Choose The Physical Therapy Zone!

Lori is a lovely person with wonderful skills and experience.

I was one of Lori Alexander’s first patients and knew from the beginning she was the right therapist for me. Not only was the location perfect, but the facilities were charming and Lori is a lovely person with wonderful skills and experience. Her sweet, kind manner always made me feel welcome and anxious to perform my exercises. Her continued work with me prepared me for major back surgery and an early release from the hospital.

Lori Alexander is the best physical therapist ever and I am so grateful to have found her!

The Physical Therapy Zone and Lori Alexander have worked miracles on my back and neck. After several appointments at The Spinal Institute and refusing injections and/or prescription drugs recommended for pain, physical therapy was prescribed.

I literally went from not being able to walk to running a half marathon.

Lori spends time with her patients and truly listens to you. I literally went from not being able to walk to running a half marathon in 7 months, all thanks to Lori and her team at The Physical Therapy Zone. I can’t thank The Physical Therapy Zone enough for giving me my freedom back and helping me to recover from my first surgery!

If I ever need a PT again, she is on my speed dial!

I had to have rotator cuff surgery. Lori runs her own shop – she is one on one with her client and I loved that!!! She knew just what to do, when to do it, and how to do it! Within a few weeks, I was moving my arm – I was lifting things – and I was getting back in this game they call life! If I ever do need a PT again, she is on my speed dial!

- Greek M.
I highly recommend The Physical Therapy Zone!

Excellent care! I have been treated for my hip and my knee over the last year with wonderful results. Lori owns her own shop and pays individual attention to you during your appointment. She really knows her stuff based on her background at the Mayo Clinic. On top of that she and her staff are personable and very caring. I highly recommend The Physical Therapy Zone!

Thanks Lori for being awesome and helping me patch myself back up!

I was looking for a great place for physical therapy, a convenient and good location. I found Lori. S he worked great with me and within weeks my ankle was feeling 100 percent better. I just returned from the Dr. for My knee and they said try some physical therapy. I will call Lori tomorrow.

I will never go back to the other guys.

When I suffered a recent neck injury I decided to try The Physical Therapy Zone. What started as “trying something new” is now “I will never go back to the other guys” — Lori is kind, attentive, and knowledgeable. With her help, I have been able to go from pain that prevented me from functioning in my everyday life to nearly pain-free in a matter of days.
