History
Established in 1993.
Unsatisfied with the traditional medical and physical therapy approaches to many pain problems and injuries, Dr. Wade Baskin, Doctor of Physical Therapy, started GT Physical Therapy as a unique practice designed to provide state of the art healing and recovery techniques. State of the Art with a Heart. With his methods , he found he was able to help shoulder problems, neck pain, and low back pain problems where other methods had failed. Now, having researched, traveled, published, and taught, he has combined other's works and innovations with his methods to provide a specialized type of therapy. It is a painless approach aimed at finding the true problem and stimulating actual healing and recovery. "No one wants to go to therapy, they want to live life," Dr. Baskin says. That's what this approach is designed to do...get people back into life and sport ASAP.
Having been well established as a leader and authority in physical therapy, GTPT as it is known, sees patients from all over.
