What makes SpineScottsdale Physical Therapy different?

SpineScottsdale is a physical therapist-owned and operated clinic specializing in the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of spine and orthopedic conditions. Unlike many general physical therapy clinics, where evaluations may lack evidence-based assessments, our expertise is focused specifically on spine and orthopedic care. In general clinics, therapists often treat a wide range of conditions daily, which can limit their depth of knowledge in managing complex spine issues. At most, a general physical therapist may have completed only a few courses in spine and orthopedic physical therapy.

At SpineScottsdale, you will work with a physical therapist who possesses advanced clinical expertise and exceptional qualifications. Our physical therapist holds the following credentials:

• Doctor of Physical Therapy degree
• Licensed Physical Therapist
• Certified in the Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy of the Spine and Extremities through the USA branch of the McKenzie Institute
• Board certified in orthopedics through the American Physical Therapy Association
• Certified in Athletic Training through the National Athletic Trainers Association
• Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist through the National Strength and Conditioning Association
• Certified Ergonomics Assessment Specialist through the Back School of Atlanta
• Certified Osteoporosis Physical Therapist 
• Certified Postural Physical Therapist through the National Posture Institute 

With these qualifications, our therapist provides unparalleled care tailored to your specific needs, ensuring optimal outcomes for spine and orthopedic conditions.

SpineScottsdale Physical Therapy is a locally owned and operated clinic led by a dedicated physical therapist committed to delivering the highest quality rehabilitation. We prioritize relaxed, meaningful appointments, strong physical therapist-patient relationships, and an exceptional standard of care and service.

In many productivity-driven clinics, physical therapists are pressured to increase patient volume and rely on therapy techs due to declining insurance reimbursements. Unfortunately, this often leads to rushed, superficial appointments, weakened therapist-patient relationships, and a reduced quality of care.

At SpineScottsdale, we reject this compromised standard of care. We exclusively utilize licensed physical therapists—never techs—in an environment where the patient’s needs and well-being are our sole focus.
