Last winter I felt a twinge in the back of my leg, which I thought was a hamstring pull. I stopped…read moreexercising for a month and it felt better, but then suddenly recurred and got steadily worse -- to the point that I could no longer walk more than a hundred yards. I finally saw an orthopedist, who quickly diagnosed a herniated disc and referred me to a PT that he respected. That PT did all the usual visual assessments and thought that it was just a bulging disc, giving me a series of extremely painful exercises that I couldn't get complete. He assured me it was just "my body trying to protect itself", but after four days I decided to seek another opinion. I was familiar with Orthology through several channels, and found a woman in the Eden Prairie office with numerous degrees after her name and a background that seemed in line with my issues. My first PT session was much more hands-on and included some (very painful) massage therapy that seemed to help (my body was so out-of-whack that all sorts of muscles were spasming). I was given a series of stretching and strengthening exercises, along with specific posture recommendations -- some of which were directly opposite what the first PT prescribed. In addition, my PT (Shawn) diagnosed me with spinal stenosis, which I was able to confirm after my own on-line research based on my symptoms. Over the next 12 visits over the course of 6 weeks, my symptoms started to subside and the focus turned from massage to stretching and intense core work. I am now pain-free, but I need to always be conscious of my posture and keep up with my core work. Scheduling was easy and straightforward, with text reminders of upcoming appointments. Payment was very easy (Medicare in this case), and the facility is modern and clean. I'm sure I'll be coming back to address some future issue as my body ages!

I had never seen a physical therapist before but after a ski accident this year I had an…read moreintercostal muscle strain for a few weeks and needed some professional help. I made an appointment with Dr. Eric Koch at Orthology and was able to get in the next day. The office was very clean and they were of course taking proper COVID precautions. Dr. Koch was very friendly and professional, asked me in-depth questions about the pain I was having and massaged out the spots that were causing discomfort. He came up with a personalized recovery plan for me and walked me through several different stretches and movements that would help the healing. The next day I was pretty sore in the areas he had worked on, but two days later my pain was almost 90% gone! I was amazed - after being in pain every time I took a deep breath for almost three weeks, I had gone half the day before I even remembered that I had been injured. Would highly recommend seeing Dr. Koch at Orthology!

Dr. Odom is very patient and incredibly knowledgeable as well! I've been doing physical therapy here and could go on forever about how much my health has improved. I dealt with and neck and back injury and went through multiple providers prior. I highly recommend going here due to the quality care and vast amount of services they provide. I've done physical therapy, the graston technique, and dry needling (it hurts the first time but the relief is SO worth it). They also provide nutrition counseling, massage therapy, personal training, a bike guru, and other services I haven't yet tried. Ps... if you go here you get 50% off your first massage.

Follow up appointments helped to strengthen my back where I haven't had any issues since 9 months and counting. I also have had rotator cuff, calf, nerve bundle issues and they've been able to help me in all these areas. Andrew Moran is my main PT I like to work with but have worked with other PTs and they are all really awesome and knowledgeable!

By the way, I read reviews for both clinics and as a result, chose the Viverant Chanhassen instead of this clinic for my main bloc of 24 appointments. Now I see why TCO Eden Prairie has a low rating. After I gave this receptionist my name and explained what type of appointment I needed and which date I wanted, she rudely asked what kind of appointment I wanted, as if I had said nothing! When I again told her, she said in an accusatory tone" You already HAVE appointments!" I said no, not for the requested date. She then said coldly that she had nothing available for the fill-in date I wanted. Contrast this with the other place ( Viverant) where the receptionist was as nice and friendly as could be, wishing me a great day. Boy am I glad I scheduled the other regular appointments with Viverant instead of this place! Even if the therapy is good I wouldn't go to a place with a receptionist who is a B.

I was seen by two different doctors, on two separate occasions, at the Eden Prairie location. On a Tuesday, I went in with knee pain. I had x-rays taken and a doctor examined my knee. Long story short, he told me to work my knee since my X-rays looked fine. Two days later, I heard a snap/pop in my knee while "working it" I was seen by the second doctor, who ordered an MRI through CDI , I also received a cortisone shot. I was given the shot without being asked about high blood pressure or other medical conditions. My blood pressure went through the roof over the weekend. In addition, my MRI appointment was cancelled because the paperwork from Twin Cities Orthropedics was not submitted until a week after my appointment.

I would highly recommend this office.

They had me…read morecomplete intake paperwork regarding what I wanted to be worked on and it was an easy straightforward process. There is ample parking and a beautiful open floor plan inside. Upon arriving the check in was fast, Katy checked me in, was super kind, and informative. I had a cup of water before my massage and Sierra came to grab me pretty quickly. Prior to my massage she checked in with me regarding what I wanted work on, the intensity of the massage, deep tissue massage, and the use of hot stones. I think she did a good job of informing me of what was happening as it was happening. My one comment would be a little bit of small talk to help ease customers into comfort if they're new to massages. I will say the unique thing about this massage was it felt like she utilized holistic approach (really utilizing the feedback of the muscles / body to find spots of tension or knots) to working with the body and not just massaging at a hard level. I usually leave massages sore and relaxed although I left here not super sore but my muscles and body felt relaxed. I was impressed with Sierra's ability to find the knots or tight spots and to work on them in a way that's wasn't only painful (a few spots were but that's normal). I got a deal on my massage as it was my first one which was extremely affordable and likely started a new little splurge for future me to continue caring for my body in a way which feels productive and healing. Outside of this experience I have also come to Wellspring to do a free yoga class which was extremely helpful in releasing body tension and relaxing. There is also tea and water for customers. Overall, I think that the employees at Wellspring care for their customers and truly want to help. This is shown in how they talk, present, the engagement that's shown, and the hard work they do. I would highly recommend coming here as massages are fairly priced and the employees truly seem to care.

She had been seen at other physical therapy centers but never seemed to improve much. After it was recommended that she seek treatment at Wellspring she had an evaluation and has begun treatment. She says that she feels like they are REALLY helping her and for the first time has not had to take Ibuprophen every moring for pain! Apparently they incorporate a "holistic, whole body approach" using hands on and various tools to also address years of muscles tightening or weakening. She added that she has found the staff (PT's, PTA's, Physician Assistant, front office) work exceedingly well together as a team helping, encouraging, supporting and reinforcing her progress and simplifing scheduling and insurance issues. Based on my friend's experience currently, I would highly recommend the clinic. I will update this post at another date.

No wonder why a large number of professional athletes such as Adrian Peterson, Larry Fitzgerald and many more are treated at this clinic. For 5 years I had an extreme case of Plantar Fasciitis on both feet which got to the point where I could barely walk. I tried it all Night Splints, Casting, rolling a soup can, stretching etc. and all the medical doctors wanted to surgically cut my Plantar Fascia to relive my condition. Month after month I went to numerous doctors including the prestigious Mayo Clinic and none of them had any clue on how to cure my condition. The mainstream medical community doesn't have a clue on how to cure this medical condition and in my opinion should not be allowed to treat patients for this. Even after 2 surgeries of Extra corporeal shock wave therapy they could not improve my conditions. I went to Institute for Athletic Medicine for physical therapy on my feet and they were horrible. It was not until I met Dr. Josh Sandell where after a few weeks of therapy I was able to walk again for the first time in 5 years. Being able to go on a walk with my 3 year old son for the first time was priceless, they had their dad back and was recovering from years of sitting on the couch and not able to play catch with the football. Since then Dr. Sandell has trained numerous doctors and physical therapist the proper methodology to cure and improve this condition. At the Orthology Clinic in Eden Prairie Minnesota I see Melissa Hennes, Kristen Wagner and Dr. Kaitlin Battaglia for treatment and receive outstanding care. Words cannot express my gratitude to this team of hard working specialist that have improved my quality of life. If you are in a place where the treatment you have been receiving is not working for you I highly recommend checking out Orthology in Eden Prairie and meeting with them so you can be on your road to better health.
