C. CLARKE TANNER, PT, MPT, COMT, ATC, CSCS, FMSC - THRIVE PHYSICAL THERAPY REVIEWS
This review is long overdue. I went to Clarke a year out after having hip surgery. I saw a few other PTs before seeing Clarke but PT was making my symptoms worse. I thought my surgery was a failure. My surgeon and I discussed a revision but I did not want to have another surgery. I decided I would make an appointment with Clarke as a last resort. I am so thankful that I made that appointment. His focus on manual therapy and neuromuscular re-education helped me improve to a place I never thought I could get. I am forever grateful for his help!
My experience at Thrive ended a 3 year battle with chronic neck pain. My misdiagnosed pain involved X-rays, MRIs, many injections and several other physical therapy groups. Thankfully my journey eventually took me to Thrive where I was treated by Clarke Tanner and Chad Goudy. They were not only professional and knowledgeable but also very understanding of how this was affecting me mentally. Through their hands on methods, appropriate exercises and added encouragement I am now pain free!! Thank you Thrive.
I was referred to Thrive by my primary care provider in November. I had heard of Thrive, but that's it. I started going because I had been having hip pains, that were knee pains, that were feet pains. Valerie has walked me through all of it and provided demonstrations and materials to help me improve my stretching and reduce my pain. This has been the best for me as a military vet and sportsman.

TRACEY ADLER, PT, DPT, OCS, CMTPT - ORTHOPEDIC PHYSICAL THERAPY INC. REVIEWS
I was recommended to Tracey after my second automobile accident. I was suffering from a cracked sternum, lower back and still in pain after 7 months. Kristen worked with me for several weeks, PT and exercises to do at home. Tracey followed the same week with trigger point dry needling. In just a few short visits, I was seeing great results with the combination from both Kristen and Tracey. Now, five years later, I was told that I may need shoulder surgery. Before I have that surgery, I am back with Tracey and Kristen. They are working their "magic" again and my right shoulder is improving with each visit. Trust is a big part of my recovery.
Tracey is a very special person. She takes her time in understanding the intricacies of your personal issues. She helped me like no other doctor, surgeon or therapist did in four years of therapy. Thank you, Tracey, for giving me the ability to move freely again!
I periodically develop a painful area in left back and shoulder. Dry needling has alleviated the pain with two visits. The clinicians are very skilled and thorough at identifying the trigger points that need treatment.
