Kimmy is awesome! They are not your typical PT. They go over and above taking extra care to get to the root problem for a permanent solution! read more

I've had PT at other facilities and none compare to Empower. You are seen 1 on 1 throughout your visit. Therapists are highly qualified. It's not "one size fits all". read more

I cannot thank Rachel enough for her expertise, kindness, compassion, concern and personal empathy that has gotten me to the other side of a long and chronic cycle of pain. Other PTs and doctors provided medications and cookie cutter therapy. Rachel has created an individualized program for me and in the last 7 months the changes have been transformational. A former gym rat, I'm now approaching the gym with Rachel's guidance and am working out in a realistic and healthy manner. She is my hero. Adrienne P read more

I can not say enough good things about Empower and the treatment I have received from Rachel. After dealing with back pain for years, and having numerous doctors point me towards ways to help the symptoms but not treat the cause, I was fed up. My initial exam with Rachel was more thorough and informative than any I had received previously. After performing an array of tests she felt the majority of my issues were muscular (and not disc as I had been told) and I would benefit greatly from her treatment. Within a week of starting I began to notice improvements, and now 3 weeks in, the daily pain I was dealing with is virtually gone. Rachel is incredibly smart, caring and encouraging. From my first visit on she has shown a real interest and motivation towards improving my quality of life. I actually look forward to my appointments! I am very grateful for finding Empower and Rachel - I highly recommend their services. read more

Have gone to Rachel for about 11-12 years off and on. She is the only PT that I would go see - no one else would compare! She is knowledgeable, funny and genuinely cares about her patients. She can be a bit tough at times, just like a personal trainer would be....holds her patients accountable for what they do/don't do as part of their recovery. That being said, you sometimes need that push forward. The office is very nice and bright; office staff are also very friendly. Great location too. read more

I wanted to write about my experience with scoliosis and working with Andrea at Excel Physical Therapy in Exton, PA with the hope that my experience can help other people. I have scoliosis and have been in pain for the last 20 years. Over the last 2 years, the pain has become excruciating to the point that I didn't know how to go on. The pain was taking over my life. I found physical therapy somewhat helpful, but felt that the help was temporary and even caused other problems. I became increasing involved with yoga and found that the pain was minimized while I was in the poses, but I would have more pain afterwards. I have spent a lot of money seeking out medical professionals for advice on how to get out of pain. I tried countless sessions of normal Physical therapy as well as Pilates, and yoga. I even considered surgery. It was by a chance conversation that a relative had with a medical professional that I learned about the Schroth method. I did some research and found that one of a very few Schroth trained physical therapists was less than 20 miles from my home, so I decided to try it. Finding Andrea at Empower Physical Therapy was a Godsend. Andrea is a caring person, supportive, empathetic, understanding and incredibly knowledgeable in the field of scoliosis. She really knows how to help you. For the first time in a very long time I do not have pain in my back. Of course, it is a challenging journey, full of hard work and dedication. I work out in front of a mirror every day where I am forced to confront my spinal deformities. I have an effective daily routing and the only time I am bothered by my back pain is when I skip my exercises. Thanks to Andrea, I can now perform not only daily activities, but activities that I love, but had to give up because of my back pain. I am now swimming, exercising regularly, and ballroom dancing. Pain Free! If someone told me that I could be without back pain before I met Andrea, I never would have believed it. Andrea is amazing. I couldn't recommend her more highly. I would recommend Andrea and the Schroth method to young and old, anyone who has scoliosis and wants to improve their lives. Empower Physical Therapy itself is a facility in Exton Pa. The facility itself is clean and well equipped for the Schroth method of PT. The staff is very courteous and caring. I highly recommend it. read more

I have been suffering with endometriosis and pelvic pain for over 10 years but this year I was no longer able to manage it. I never knew pelvic floor PT existed until my doctor referred me to Empower. I started seeing Gina this month and she has been amazing! She's always asking how I'm doing and we focus on what's bothering me the most at that time. She's recommended things for me to try at home and I can see a difference in my pain levels. I'm so happy I started coming to Empower! If you are lucky enough to have Gina as your therapist, you won't be disappointed. read more

I have had the pleasure of working with Theresa for the last several weeks, and I have learned so much about my core muscles that I wasn't even aware of. I had pretty major stomach surgery 12 weeks ago, and was really in need of help making everything work properly again. I am a very active person, and wanted to be sure that I was building myself up in the most safe manor, and not just how I thought I should in order to get back to my activities. Theresa was so patient with me in explaining concepts that were new to me, and she spent a lot of time showing me things that I can incorporate into my routine long after I'm finished with PT. She was always encouraging, even when I wasn't always excited about the things she was having me do. The facility is extremely neat and clean, and I am ridiculously impressed at how timely they always are, and the fact that you work individually and directly with the PT the whole time you are there. Thank you, Theresa, for making this difficult recovery easier, and for giving me the tools to help me continue on toward my goals. read more
