We worked on so much more than just TMJ to really bring balance and restoration to the whole body. Joy, was an integral part of the team I worked with for a year to bring me to a better place after a dental injury.

I was a patient at The Physical Therapy place in November and December of last year when I was…read morereferred by my general practitioner for short term physical therapy on what was tentatively diagnosed as a torn meniscus. The Physical Therapy Place came highly recommended and luckily was in network for my insurance so I called to make an appointment. Located in an office building at the corner of 42nd and Laurel in the medical / university district, my first appointment involved arriving early and filling out the necessary background paperwork. I then met with Corina Carlson, PT, DPT who gave me my strength and flexibility assessment and discussed my medical background with me. Given I had been dealing with other health issues for the year prior, let's just say there were quite a few limitations. And my strength was next to nil. That didn't dissuade Corina however. We spent part of the 45 minute session working through 3 different exercises at the end of which I was given printouts and shown how to adapt them to home use as needed. Of course each session came with "homework." Which I diligently did almost every evening. We decided on a course of coming in once a week over a period of two months at which time everything would be reassessed. However often due to my work schedule some of those weekly schedules turned into bi-weekly. Which Corina would gently tease me about. Corina has a great personality and was very easy to work with. It was obvious from our first meeting she has her patients best interest at heart. The office is rather small and only consists of 2-3 physical therapists. But the office staff was friendly and insurance was billed promptly. Appointments were fairly easy to make. All in all this was my first bout of physical therapy and I was released for home care at the end of December when my knee started to show improvement. In the event I ever need PT again, I would definitely return to The Physical Therapy Place. And would whole heartedly recommend it to others.

Luckily they had just one open slot and as soon as I finished my new patient forms I was seen. Usually this never happens so I'm lucky to have gotten in the same day to be evaluated. Jeff was very helpful and gentle. He asked all the right questions, because I could not explain the pain I was having on my own. I was given information and exercises to do at home to help myself recover. I'm very pleased with my first visit and am looking forward to a pain free future. I think I'll get that here.

My physical therapist Erin listened to my concerns and was able to further explain some of the issues I have been dealing with. She manipulated a few spots and recommended some exercises to help address the others. This is also one of the few offices that says to show up 15 min early, you actually need to do it. Because there is so much paperwork. I look forward to future visits.

I sat in the chair and got a free rub up and put my name in a drawing for a free massage and my name was picked (Holla!). I made an appointment with the masseuse that was at the fair and extended the massage by a half hour. First time here, so I was impressed by what I saw. There was a physical therapy room with a bunch of workout stuff The check-in area, though small, was clean and had fresh fruit and water. Receptionist was nice and affable. I do not remember golden hand's name but it started with a "Ch". He works here and at the Hotel Captain Cook. I think I will visit here or there again because it was the best massage I've ever had. After I went home I felt high, like ya-know, and really good. Lots of water that evening. So, what is it that I liked about this place? It has a bit of everything, and all the staff seemed professional and courteous. I filled out a questionnaire and discussed body stuff with a clinician before I got the massage. After the massage I was on my way out and I was met by the masseuse with a glass of water. The visit from beginning to end was great and I would recommend. If I needed physical therapy I think I would be happy to come here for help.

It's been a few years, so I've been able to fully reflect on my time in care. The staff desk staff…read morewere amiable, welcoming, and helpful. The office was clean and tasteful. I started going for care because something went out in my neck, but I continued to go back for some low-back / SI joint pain. The chiropractor told me he wanted to see me often, but I was paying out of pocket and couldn't afford to go that frequently. Even with the discount program they enrolled me in, the cost was inconvenient. I would get adjusted, and then it would fall right back out when I stretched the following day. I hoped continued visits would retrain things to stay in place, but it began to feel like a waste of time and money. The chiropractor also seemed to have difficulty adjusting my neck, which I hadn't encountered before, so we left that alone. Frankly, I ceased making appointments. I ended up asking my primary care physician for a physical therapy referral. I figured out I have many muscle imbalances that reared their ugly heads thanks to inactivity during the pandemic. It's no wonder my adjustments weren't sticking, and I felt discomfort with some of the adjustments. I ended up in pelvic floor therapy as well because my pelvis was rotated, and each side was trying to tilt in opposing directions. Hence the low-back / SI joint pain! While I decided to stop seeking care at this facility and moved back to the lower 48, I do remember their kindness.

This business preys on patients, they took clients from a prominent doctor knowing that her care…read moredidn't align with their office standards. They waited just past 3yrs for her to retire and patients to be unable to easily transition back to their previous provider to tell the patients that their plan of care would be changing vastly once she left the practice. I wish i could just say they don't care about their patients and if it was just that alone, I'd be resolute in the fact that it's better that we separated to go our separate ways. HOWEVER, that's not the only issue here, it apparently the office manager has taken it upon herself to breach hipaa laws and patient privacy because she's sharing with other pain management specialists her "unprofessional opinion" on specific patients and whether she feels they're a "problem patient or not" even when there's no documentation in file to suggest otherwise. So in the very near future a lawsuit is likely to follow, and from the similarities other patients have shared ... it might end up being a class action suit. It takes a lot of gaul and moral irresponsibility to speak on people who don't have an active ROI... Recently 3 of 5 pain management clinics have been refusing to serve this patient after having just stated they have openings and accept the insurance. They enquired about previous pain doctors and Alpenglow was only named, but no ROI or paperwork was completed to give a reason for them to come back ready to run in the opposite direction, unwilling to do procedures or medications. So far two have employees willing to admit that negative comments that were shared... so there's that... When you see this clinic, don't just walk in the opposite direction, RUN! Because when it's good, it's fine, but the moment there is a problem, it becomes nasty quick. And the unethical behaviors we've experienced are astounding, and seem to target patients who have an emotional response to bad news, ex. start crying, or try explaining through tears the situation they're facing in their plan of care, or whether they feel supported or not. The other targets are people who refused to take medications prescribed to them that had adverse physical effects. Before you know it, you're looking for a new provider and that's about the only thing i can appreciate is that the people who have terminated or been terminated are at least lucky to be out of there with a better chance for responsible care.
