"I first went to Michelle after experiencing a hamstring injury. I went to a traditional PT who told me that I probably needed new shoes, which seemed ridiculous since I had been feeling off for months. Michelle diagnosed the issues almost immediately and put a plan in place that gave me immediate and sustained results. I was stronger after 6 weeks with Michelle than I had been before. I recently suffered a hip injury that felt as though I’d never be able to run correctly again. Michelle came to the rescue again and put me on a great plan that combined in office work and the use of her virtual program. I went from feeling immense pain to, again, feeling stronger than before. I can’t recommend her and her team enough."

"If you need a physical therapist - this is your place. I'm currently doing the hybrid program and have been very pleased. Dr. Tyler spent a ton of time with me at my initial consult to determine my pain points, discuss my goals, and learn about my lifestyle. He was able to create a program for me that allows me to do exercises on my own throughout the week (with the use of an app that keeps you on track, sends reminders, and has videos to be sure I am doing the exercises properly)combined with a few hands-on visits in the office with him. I can also connect with him through the app with any questions/concerns. I'm about 1/2 way through my program and my pain has significantly improved as well as my range of motion. More importantly, I am still able to stay in the gym and continue my normal workouts. The team has been great and I definitely recommend them!"

"I had a great experience working with Funxional PT. I came in four months ago with lower back pain and instead of cutting out all exercise, as I’ve experienced with PT in the past, Tyler created a hybrid plan that kept me active while decreasing pain. My back feels so much better, I’m able to complete workouts with heavy weights and high reps, and I’ve started running again. If looking for a physical therapist, I would definitely recommend Funxional PT!"

"For a while, I was reluctant to do physical therapy for my leg and back injuries but I am now glad I did. They tested my body conditions and set up exercise routine a few days a week for 6 months. I was functioning slowly but now I am working normally and no longer in pains or hinder movements."

Marisa P.

"I experience up slip hip quite often, for many years I suffered with bladder issues and weakness in my hips, lower abs, and pelvic floor. With Dr Michelle’s helps I am able to maintain my symptoms of bladder urgency, lower back pain, and stiffness. I typically see her every month to every 3 months for an adjustment, one on one time to discuss any symptoms I am feeling, needles with electrodes and stretches and any other issue that needs to be addressed in the hour time I have with her. It’s so great to be able to be one on one with the doctor the whole appt. I cannot say enough great things about my experience with functional Pt and Dr Michelle. I am able to go on long trips and places without always looking for a bathroom and gaining so much strength and stability from attending physical therapy and doing my at home strengthening exercises."

Ryan P.

"I was experiencing pain in several areas (low back, shoulder, neck, ankle). Michelle was able to get the pain under control. From there we worked on strengthening the areas with exercises both at the facility and on my own. I’ve experienced significant improvement in all areas of focus. It was different from my previous experience with PT because I was able to get treatment on multiple areas during the same visit. It ended up costing less and was more effective. Thanks!"

Like many nurses, I approached Dr. Michelle with persistent neck and shoulder pain. After trying countless gadgets, I turned to her in-person and online training programs. They truly are the best on the market!
