Thank you all for giving me my life back!” – John
” I went someplace else first and had very little improvement. Coming to PTC has made all the difference in the world. Each week I could see and feel improvement. They didn’t just tell me what to do and send me home, they actually did hands on manipulations and massage. They pin pointed where the pain was and worked it out. I’m happy to say that my shoulder feels great and the movement is back to normal. All of the staff here are wonderful. Stephanie McEvoy was my main therapist along with Max Madrid. I will never go anywhere else!” – Linda L.

“Physical Therapy Connections staff provided me with the physical and psychological tools and support to diminish my back pain and help me back to a more active lifestyle.

Additionally, I know I have a team at PTC that will be there for me if I need them even if it is just a quick question. Thank you to the team at PTC for your extraordinary expertise and support. Best wishes!” – Sharon

“After 3.5 years looking for help, I received a level 2 artificial disk replacements at the C 5,6,7. The surgery was a success, though it will be a long time for the nerve issues to completely dissipate, if ever. The therapy I received was some of the best I have ever had. The approach was different than other therapists I had seen over the years. They worked in different muscles to achieve the ultimate goal of being able to move my neck and relieve the shoulders tightness I experienced. In time, I was able to rotate my neck without the sharp pain and my shoulders have never felt better in a lot of years. Thank you!”- L. Boshcke
“As I was to doing physical therapy it was a very enjoyable experience. Everyone that treated me was very nice. I’m glad I was able to get through therapy. It took a lot of work out of me because I didn’t really want to talk to anyone new. Yet it was great, not only did my shoulders get better, but I was able to meet some new people. Thank you for having me as one of your patients.”- Larimee B.

Of course, they didn’t find anything but my doctor recommended physical therapy. My boss had used Physical Therapy Connections in the past and told me to try them. They made it so easy for me to work around my busy schedule and attend my appointments.

“When I first st heard about FMS at Physical Therapy Connections, I thought it was for athletes and younger people who were real active. After about four weeks of physical therapy for some tight muscles, i thought I didn’t need any more and that and that I could do my exercises at home. But after I tried the Functional Movement Screening, I realized that the muscles I was working on were still weak and affected the balance. I am 67 and pride myself on my level of fitness which turned out to be not as good as I thought. I’m glad I got screened and learned my true fitness level and were my weaknesses were. FMS was a good measure of my progress. It has given me a new goal and a way to achieve the fitness I wan for my lifestyle. Thanks Physical Therapy Connections!!” – D. Behringer

“I truly feel that I have benefited from doing out-patient therapy. I just couldn’t believe how weak my surgery leg (left hip) was after the surgery. I was so ready to get back to everyday life that I began to come off my strong medication to normal over the counter medication. My goal was to also get off the Rx medication so I could drive on my own. And doing the in-patient therapy helped to just get me moving again and PTC added to the strength needed to get back to walking normal again. I had walked with a lip for so long, it was time to learn how to walk normal and healthy for the rest of my life. That is what I thank PTC for!” – Cindy Polk

Clean environment, congrats to all–keep up the great work.” – J. Roseman
“Thank you all at PT Connections! I definitely had a positive experience at PT Connections. From the office staff to the therapists, everyone was friendly and listened to my needs. I was encouraged to keep up with my exercises at home for which I was given the exercises on paper so I didn’t forget what to do. That helped a lot. I was asked to do a little more each time I went to therapy so to me that proved the therapy was doing what it should to help with the movement of my knee. The therapy showed that the therapist cared and worked with you. Any questions I had were answered right away in reference to my knee. I have referred other people to you. I know because I think all the work you do is great. My doctor said you were the best and he was right!” – Debi Genova
“I certainly saw much improvement in my lower back from the pressure point therapy. Before my pain was about a 9/10. During and after therapy it’s been reduced to a livable 3 or 4.

I perform every day. And it was fun as I gained strength and mobility and confidence. Thank you!” – Judy Stucki
“The staff (Chad and Max) provided me with needed therapy for a knee replacement surgery that I had in January. Samantha at the front desk made therapy scheduling convenient and made it easy to adjust the scheduled appointments. It was important for me to have a scheduled therapy session and I know added my recovery from knee surgery. It is very important for those recovering from injury or surgery to make sure they are committed to a progressive physical therapy program. Physical Therapy Connections provides for those needs. I would highly recommend PTC for those needing physical therapy.” -Dick Schmaltz
“When I hurt my shoulder I expected workman’s comp to quickly get the surgery and recovery done so I could get back to work. Four months passed before surgery happened. I was pretty upset but the PT I received from PTC I believe helped with a very good and pain free recovery. I’m back to work now and have met others who have had or are going through the same surgery I had. Some have not near the use I do with my right shoulder. I credit PTC for my great recovery and your staff is great at what they do. Thank you for putting up with me and my stupid jokes!” -Curtis Smith
“When I first started coming to PT, my right knee hurt most of the time and especially turning over in bed and getting out of the bed when I bent in a certain way.

Before, I would also have pain under the kneecap without any moving and they have decreased to almost never. I really want to thank everyone at and really appreciate what all of you have done for me.” – T. Alley

“My experience having physical therapy was a rewarding one. I had never had therapy before and was a little nervous but that didn’t last long. I have been very healthy much of my life but had a few issues happening that were beginning to bother me. The 5 week therapy connected these problems. I would highly recommend their services.” -Margaret Knight
“I have had therapy at other facilities in the Pueblo area. At one of those facilities I felt like I was just a number and not an individual. At the other facility my treatment plan was so slap-dash that I felt that my injuries were insignificant. I was pleased by the professionalism and empathy that I discovered when I went to PTC for post surgery therapy. I appreciated the interest that each staff member showed and the personal and professional demeanor of each staffer. I liked the fact that I was encouraged to advance in both the amount of difficulty of therapy and I was ‘allowed’ to take it a litter easier on days that I wasn’t feeling well. Thanks PTC for your professionalism, empathy and interest in my healing process.” -Barbara Dwyer
“A little over a year ago I had a bilateral total knee replacement. I had my P.T. with PTC and experienced great results. I later experienced a bilateral arthroscope knee surgery to remove scar tissue. Without hesitation a came back to PTC for my P.T. and have also attended the wellness class this fall. The staff does a great job and are well trained for their positions. I tell everyone I can that needs physical therapy that Physical Therapy Connections is the place to go.

“I had seen a doctor in Pueblo-he said I needed surgery-I called back and left a message but didn’t hear anything. A friend kept on me to get a second opinion and I went to Dr. Shogan in Denver from a referral. Saw his P.A. and she said physical therapy. I was willing to try anything, wasn’t looking forward to surgery. The first week I saw and felt a different. I was amazed I was off the pain medicine and no pain!! I thank my friend and PTC because if that office wouldn’t have called me back, I wouldn’t be in the shape I am today.” -Alice Blue
“I came in last fall with severe pain in my left shoulder and bicep. I attended physical therapy with Stephanie, Adrian and Max weekly up to early April 2014. They provided me with the information and treatments to help alleviate much of my pain and discomfort. They were always patient and encouraging to me. They always were concerned about my well-being and to make sure I was on the right track to recovery. My last session, Max recommended I get a massage therapy session on my affected shoulder and arm. Mike Coffee has done wonders getting my pain to an even lower level. I wish to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart!” -Mike Sexton

If I ever have to have any therapy, I will certainly see you again.” -Larry Hancock

Stephanie, Aubree and Mike you are awesome!” – Paula
“Everyone who works at physical therapy connections treated me great and were very knowledgeable and professional people. When I first began this series of physical therapy, I didn’t really want to start. This was like my fourth time around trying therapy due to my fourth knee surgery.

When I was told it was my last day and I would be graduating, I cried a little, I will miss you people! Tank you for you help!” – G. Trujillo

Your motto of pain free is exactly how you operate!” – John Barker

My goals were achieved pain free and therapy was a very fun, positive experience. I would highly recommend PTC to anyone who is in need of therapy as all of the staff is very professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and interested in you as a person.” – Rosann Curran
“My left knee was replaced June 13th. I am very happy with the knee replacement and will have the right knee replaced June 2014. I would venture to say most of my success is attributed to a good surgeon and the other 50% to Chad and Max for the excellent PT the guided me through. I am very impressed with both of you and your entire staff! Your facility does an excellent job and thank you both Chad and Max as I am feeling 100% better walking tall and carrying myself well.

“My coach, Stephanie, was patient and kind and gave me a lot of exercises to help scoliosis. This is relatively new or it seems there’s more awareness of this condition. Now if I can just work at these exercises I know I can improve. (Mike also helped). It’s interesting that one doesn’t work on the ‘bad’ side but the ‘good’ side so that will help with the bad side in some cases. I find I feel good doing the stand and twist, pushing against the wall with one hand, then bending my knees back and forth. I need to work more on the bridge and I need to walk more! The experience has made me feel so much more hopeful. I just need to stick with it. And I may come back in the future.” -Phyllis Fairchild
“When I first went to PTC, I was experiencing pain, sometimes severe, in my lower back and hips, it was almost 24/7 pain for me. After my 6 weeks of therapy with them any pain levels were down to 0-1 instead of 8-10. I hadn’t felt this good in a long time. My therapist taught me many exercises to do at home and even at work to keep my muscles strong in my back and hips and to help me strengthen my core muscles. He taught me how to list, push, pull and bend safely and without causing strain on my muscles. I would recommentd PTC to anyone having neck, back, hip or knee pain or anyone who needs physical therapy for any reason. You will be treated with respect and understanding and will definitely benefit from what they do for you. I thank them all from the bottom of my heart.” -Kathy Walker

“My therapist, Chad, was friendly, listened to my physical problems and laid out a plan to improve the mobility of my shoulder. Each session he introduced a new set of exercises that I could do at home, so I would only need to come to therapy once a week. The hands-on activity to extend my mobility, plus working on pressure points really helped. All this was done with a minimal amount of pain, giving me the tools to continue working at home until I have full shoulder mobility. I am grateful for this very positive experience.” -Pearl Gurule
“Did exercises you requested and my knee pain got better every visit. No pain now. Your diagrams and instructions both verbally and written were east to follow. Your company is outstanding. My wife’s hip surgery got better with less pain every visit. Thank you. We wished you had a representative come to the hospital after her hip surgery to recommend we come to your clinic. It would have made it easier than making a choice from a list of clinics. Your staff is a class act and a class act IS a hard act to follow.” -Robert Levy

My future goals include working, running a marathon and enjoying my life with my wife, family and friends”. -Gerard F

I plan on coming back antime I need physical therapy”. -Paula O

Thank you so much Stephanie and Physical Therapy Connections”. -Dorothy C

“I came in with a knee issue, only to have Michael take one look and decide it was really my hip. Through the course of treatment my hip, knee, and an old ankle injury improved greatly. I didn’t want to come at first because I wasn’t sure therapy would help. It did immensely. I still have strategies I can and do use at home, which is also proven very helpful. I did like the less intense style. My last physical therapy experience was like boot camp, this was much more enjoyable”. -Suzanne E
“I had both knees with TKR 6 weeks apart, and started outpatient PTC therapy around 5-6 (after home health therapy). I appreciated every PT session was different to deal with current pain or ROM needs. Michael and my MD said I am way ahead of most people at my current time frame and I contribute that to my own committment of home exercise 2x daily and all the various assessments and changes from Michael for me to address each need for myself during every phase of my recovery. Thank you so much Michael for giving me my ROM and function back in both of my knee and allowing me to judge how much ROM or reps per my pain tolerance”. -Linda R

Before I started I was in pain all day everyday. By the time I graduated I was pain free and able to move around easily without pain at all. I work at a prison so there is always a chance of inmate contact. My PT was designed around me having to potentially fight an inmate. All of the moves, stretches, and exercises were geared towards helping me thrive at work. I’m so thankful for everyone who have helped me at Physical Therapy Connections and appreciate all of the caring staff”. Caitlin P

“I would like to take the time to personally thank the entire staff of Physical Therapy Connections fory your generous welcome, and care. Having been through numerous physical therapists, this facility and staff made you feel more than welcome and want to attend your sessions. The safe and pain free philosophy “works”. Most PT that I attended was like boot camp and very painful. I was very pleased with the knowledge, care, concern, and encouragement from all the physical therapist. A very special thank you to Chad Clark. Most owners of a business do not engage personally in the work themselves, Chad was my therapist in the rehabilitation of my left knee replacement. I couldn’t be more satisfied with my progress and my total outcome. The basics of what Chad taught me are still and will be a daily part of my physical care and life. I continue to do the work and rehab on my knee, and the progress that I have made is unbelievable. I could not be more satisfied and happy with the decision of a total knee replacement, thank you Chad and staff of Physical Therapy Connections”. -Phil

“Being a couch potato and living life revolving around food has a negative effect on our bodies but is very Italian. My results landed me at PT Connections. It was a stroke of luck that Michael Flores became my PT. He is marvelous. One time after another I had to come to him for a different set of muscles I hurt while trying to improve the last set of muscles that I hurt. He has been patient, kind, and comforting through it all Michael has more than exhibited his abilities. He has a heart for all the people that I believe is second to none. Michael is a great person and physical therapist and will go far. And I, like so many others, come to physical therapy with a lot of trepidation and Michael put me at ease the very first thing and instead of not wanting to go to PT I look forward to it. Now I have so much more in movement, I’ve lost some weight and feel like I’ve pushed the clock back. I’m thankful for all the things I have learned from Michael and he has given me the tools I need to better take care of myself. And Michael Coffee’s massages are heaven. I have been in Adrian’s wellness class since March and besides being fun and social it keeps me grounded in my self-care. Adrian is really good coach.He has a gift for encouraging others and works very hard to help all of us achieve our goals. All of this has been a life changer for me. Everyone at PT Connections is the best. They’re dedicated to their patients’ well-being and work to that end besides being friendly, fun, and first-rate.” -Micki D.

I went from very limited mobility to full range mobility. As my pregnancy advances I will have the tools to help me manage the growth and changes. Thank you!” -Emerald O.
“After my reconstruction surgery, my left arm was not able to function properly. I had gone to physical therapy before but left with little improvement. Two years later I was referred to Physical Therapy Connections. My first phone call was from Samantha. She was friendly over the phone and when I met her she was just smiling and made me feel at ease. She set me up with Dr. Stephanie McEvoy and I just felt I was in good hands from the start. I started this in June of 2016and Dr. Stephanie measured my motion and then began stretches and arm lifts. After every session she gave me work to do and walked me to the front. It is now Sept. and I am on my way back to feeling myself again. Thank you all for such a wonderful experience.” -Laura S.
“If you want to achieve your therapy goals, this is the place! I am a 51 yr old woman that needed a double knee replacement, I researched, read reviews, and asked any one who had any type of joint replacement who they recommend. Chad and the amazing crew at Physical Therapy Connections, was the overwhelming answer. Even my Dr. requested them!. I needed to return to work as quickly as possible after surgery. The caring staff worked with me in ADVANCE to strengthen the muscles I would need after surgery. What an INCREDIBLE difference the physical therapy made! I was able to work part time the third week and full time the 4th. At 5 weeks I am at 140 &131. These numbers are typical after 4 months!! I know that with the wonderful care and support I receive at Physical Therapy Connections, I will continue to achieve and surpass my goals. Thank you all!” – Anonymous
“At my first visit when making appointments with a therapist, she (Samantha) made me feel welcome and comfortable. After finishing my PT, I joined Adrian’s wellness class and it is always a pleasure to be greeted warmly by Sam – What an asset she is to the office. I asked to be assigned to Stephanie because my sister had great success under her care. Steph is a great therapist who demonstrated knowledge, skills, and patience. This was my first eve PT experience and under her guidance, I learned techniques to strengthen my leg which I will continue to delay knee surgery. I had some opportunities to work with Max who encouraged and, under his direction, greatly assisted me in attaining my personal goals. After graduating from PT a month ago I joined Adrian’s wellness class. Since that time I have felt more energized and under his guidance, I have improved my confidence to do physical things I thought were well behind me. His classes are fun but challenging.” -Anonymous
“I accomplished what I went there for, and that was to help get the foot I had sprained get better and get me walking again without pain. The therapist was able to correct other issues they had found to be noticeable, such as aligning my hips which were slightly rotated from compensating for the pain I had in my foot. They really addressed more than I had expected. Very satisfied with my overall experience. Thank you!” – Anonymous
“I injured my ankle about 9 months ago, I kept thinking it would eventually get better, but it never did. I saw my doctor and they referred me to PTC. I was scared going to set up my PT sessions but was warmly greeted by Sam, and scheduled for my first session in 2 days. Dr. Flores was wonderful to work with and would explain to me why he was doing what he was and how it would help make my ankle strong. He taught me exercises I could do at home and we went over them to ensure I was doing them correctly. As a teacher, I greatly appreciated that he did this and I was confident to do the exercises at home. If I injure myself again, I’m definitely going back to PTC!” – Alysia Trujillo

I will always send people to your place.” Loretto E.
“My first experience with PTC was almost 6 yrs ago. MY elderly father had a total knee replacement. The hands on work they did with him amazed me, He was 80 yrs old and was soon back to doing his daily walks. When I had a total knee replacement, I went to PTC. They developed a personal program for me that became more challenging as the weeks went on. The benefits to my knee (Also my other knee, hips, and back), came quickly. They treated me like a valued friend but never lost their professional focus. I would (and have) recommended them to everyone for any surgery or aches and pains.” -Virginia
“What a life changing experience! I am now able to do all the things I set out to do. I am able to do grocery shopping, and household tasks I was unable to perform 2 yrs ago.

That’s not usually the case for me and I also was informed that my Parkinson’s by my doctor that exercise with neurological disorders is essential almost every day to keep up your strength – otherwise you lose your strength and progress very quickly. Scary huh! I hope to continue and progress now. Hopefully it will continue. Thanks for all your help.” – Janet M

“I was referred to PTC by my Orthopedic Dr. after I had a right full knee replacement. I had a very helpful and encouraging experience, working with Michael F, Max, and Adrian. They were all very knowlegeable about what exericeses I should do and didn’t lew me over-do it. About half way through my knee therapy, I was also referred for my lower back. They were all friendly and treated me in a respectful manner and made me feel comfortable while doing my therapy. THey are all a great bunch and I will miss coming for the therapy. – E. Alley
“When I first came to see you, I had some doubts that you could actually help me recover from my ordeal of breaking my left femur bone near my hip. Now I’m sporting a titanium ball which had replaced my hip ball and also have a titanium rode inserted into the lower portion of my left leg. Michael Coffee referred me to a medical massage therapist and she is great – helping me a lot! With your patience in helping me to find a safe avenue to use my left leg and without any pain was an eye opener for me. But thankfully you all showed me it could be done. Thank you. You guys are awesome! Thank you. Also, I had a problem with the right shoulder and just graduated from that area of comfort also. Again, you let Stephanie work with me in finding ways to increase my mobility in that right arm and shoulder. I’m very grateful for your help. The rest is up to me and I’ll exercise it every day as I’m able to do so. So thank you so much for your patience and kindness. It works. Just remember to do the exercises and all will be good in the end.” M. Mathews
“My experiences here at Physical Therapy Connections have been most positive. Dr. Mike Flores sat and listened to my issues and concerns. We had a great dialogue on what my problems I had and what and how we were going to address them to get me feeling better. Also it would enable me to get on with my active life. Each session of specific exercises with Max Madrid and Adrian Gomez gave me guidance on continuing these exercises at home. Both Max and Adrian were pleasant, helpful and above all patient. My sessions were great filled with laughter and optimism to get me to feeling better. I would /will definitely recommend Physical Therapy Connections to All! I would definitiely come back if I need therapy again.” – Charlyn M.
“They (Stephanie and Adrian) were easy to talk to. They explained everything very well so I could understand why I was doing the stretches and strengthening that they suggested.” – Laurie P.
“My ACL was completely torn, with a partial tear of the meniscus and LCL. I was always down and dreaded coming to therapy. When I started working with Adrian, it actually became fun. We always had something to talk about and I was really comfortable. I not only became a better athlete and overcame my injury physically and emotionally, but I also made a good friend. I revere Adrian a lot, and I will always be thankful for everything he has done for me.” – Jaylan G.
“We (Max and I) both have great interest in golf – he even helped me with my swing. “Rotation- rotation” and stretching before a round. Stephanie is also a ge – tries very hard to help. You guys are super!” “Thank you, PAC and PTC for a great experience in your facility. My torn rotator cuff problem has improved since attending my sessions, as well as the sciatic nerve problem. I’ve learned a lot about balance, posture, and walking correctly. Also, my golf swing has improved, thanks to Max! What a happy guy and fun to be around!” – Marian M
“Well, started Nov 30th with therapy on my shoulder. Had Stephanie and Max Both as therapists. Came in every Tuesday. 1st time in, never thought I’d be where I am today, Have almost full use of both my arms and back. Still a little ways to go but not far. I can remember going back for my 1st x-rays and being in tears because of having to have my arm in a certain position. Can’t believe Stephanie and Max have brought me this far, and they are such nice people, very gentle and don’t push you. And Max is a real character. I got a kick out of him. Anyway, couldn’t have gone to a better therapy center. Glad my doctor sent me there. Would recommend to every one who needs therapy on some part of the body, be it shoulder or whatever. They’re great here. – anonymous.
I am so pleased with the care I have received. The exercises I have been given have changed my daily living considerably. I am able to reach and move my shoulder and arm to a normal position in most everything I attempt. Thanks again! – Anonymous
Everyone here has been Great. Mike works very hard at helping me with all my workouts. I am walking and doing my everyday life with so much less pain and feel so much more motion. I don’t feel like I am 75 years old. I am back to building Hot Rods and riding my Harley. I would recommend you to anyone. Thank you so much – Terry McDonald
I have been getting severe headaches in the middle of the night for almost 8 years. Additionally, I had severe sharp pain in my shoulder and I was convinced I was facing surgery. Michael Flores convinced me I should give physical therapy a chance for a few sessions and home exercises. Miraculously my pain in my shoulder has all but subsided and I recently went almost 3 weeks without a headache! This is huge for me and something I never thought would be possible but I was forever hopeful. The team at PT Connections not only diagnosed my issues, but worked on correcting them, and they were pretty complex – certainly nothing that numerous doctors and specialists could figure out. I am forever grateful. – Pamela Cress
Michael gave me the confidence that this will be my last shoulder surgery with no more dislocations because of the assessment and specific exercise program; specific to me. I could notice significant improvement from the ongoing reassessments for my shoulder prior to and after my surgery. I’m in less pain and able to do so much more every day with my shoulder being more stable. Michael and Max are excellent in determining what program is in the best interests for me to return to the best possible function. Both are pleasant, creative, and fun to work with. Thank you so much. – Linda Reis
I attended Chad’s seminar @ PCC and he said all the things I wanted to hear. I was experiencing pain in my thighs and hips – the cause was my back. After 5 sessions my pain was gone except for the groin pain but that soon disappeared as well. Now I will continue maintenance exercises and attend in-house maintenance programs. – Lou Truhlicka
I did not believe I could get better in the time I had. But not only did I get better, I wanted to dance by the time I was done!! This team was wonderful! Thanks for all you did!! – Melissa Westfall
Overwhelmed me with knowledge and expertise. Always working to motivate me to excel and improve. You can tell Michael loves what he does! – Rick Esgar
My therapist was very knowledgeable and a lot of fun. He personalized my treatment, using my interest and experience to maximize my performance as well as showing me safe ways to increase my range and strength. I always felt like an athlete training while I was here. He also had answers and recommendations for all my questions. – Shirley Aragon
You have changed my life by helping me with everything, especially the exercises with everybody. I enjoyed working with everybody. – Duane Keller
I received individual help and care that I needed. Special thanks to Michael Flores and Max Madrid, Samantha for accommodating changing times and dates. Max and Michael Flores never gave up on me, Even when I gave up on myself. – Joan Perez
I was helped on my posture. Since it was my hips, I was shown different ways to walk. That helped me not to limp. The group was wonderful. Everyone really cares and their job means a lot. It’s not just considered a job. Thanks you. – Terri Padilla
I was unable to stand, sit, or walk before I came. My pain was 10/10 some days. Now, I don’t need my cane. I can walk, sit, and stand with less pain. I am 70% better. Chad was educational for me. I understand what to do now because of the skills Chad taught me and the controlled exercises he provided me with for home therapy. I am so relieved. Thank you. – Kathleen Vadnal
Most definitely!! Before my treatment, I would cringe each time I stepped out of my car or truck and also when getting up from a chair after sitting for any length of time. I don’t experience that pain now so I will definitely continue using the exercises that Stephanie provided me. I highly recommend Stephanie. – M Kathy Cozzoline
I always enjoy sports performance. Everyone is friendly and professional. Every therapist is excellent. I thank Stephanie for her time and work to begin with and Max for tying it all together at the finish line. I will truly miss everyone. Sam is wonderful and front desk is most important as she is the first to greet you. Many thanks to all. You make an amazing team. – Joyce Nims
Motivated me to exercise, as a result I am more mobile and confident. Chores at home and work to be done seems within my abilities now. – John Hagen
17 I had a great experience. Staff was amazing and really listened to my needs. Michael was great and really does a great job. I hit all my goals that were set from day one, no pain, and I feel wonderful. Thank you all, I couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you. – Andrea Vigil
I have had therapy at other places in town that produced 0 results. You were and are great and I feel better each day. Larry Henderson
Yes, physical therapy changed my life for the better. It allowed me to regain strength and mobility in my shoulder and get back to enjoying my hobbies that included using my shoulder. All the staff were very nice and accommodating. – Mitchell Ortiz
When I first started at PTC, I was skeptical. My sciatica was very painful and I thought there was no way exercises were going to make the pain go away. I was scheduled for about 8 treatment appointments. On my second appointment I met Max, who was concerned about me and my improving success. Max was funny, I enjoyed being with him and he explained every exercise and how it would help me. After 4 appointments, my sciatic nerve pain went from a high 10 to less than 0.01. Max gave me my certificate of completion and I thanked him for all of his help, and Max said, “I didn’t do anything. I showed you what to do; it was all you. You did all the work.” I was very impressed with PT Connections, especially Max. Well Done. Thank you, Max, and all the other therapists. You are a great team. – Fred Rouleau
Strength and range of motion in (R) knee after knee replacement surgery. Working with Michael Flores and Max Madrid not only gave me back the movement to my (R) knee, but these wonderful people provided me with the self confidence I had lost with to 2 years of pain I had endured prior to knee replacement. There are truly no words to properly describe the benefits and self confidence I have gained. Thank you so much for everything. – Shirley Lewis
Helped with my range of motion and strength as well as confidence with my knees and attitude. Everyone makes you feel at ease at hard things to do for rehab. Their massage I think is critical for the rest of the body, besides the knees. Everyone should do that!!! Steph is Great!. – Craig Shomaker
All my goals were reached and my pain eliminated. I can do things I could not 6 months ago. – Anne Whitfield
I feel that All the staff at Physical Therapy Connections have helped me achieve all of my normal movements on my knee. I will refer whoever I know that might need some therapy to this place. Thank you so much. – Marcos Ortega
After one month my knee felt as good as new! No-pain exercises. I have better range of motion than I had after initial PT at another place – which was longer. No scary props were used 🙂 – Stephanie Snyder
Stephanie was fantastic and all were wonderful to work with. Understands encourages and supports. Always feel good about your progress even when you’re having a bad day. – Dave Ritterling
This is not the first time you have helped me through a session of pain. I am grateful to have you available. – Myrtis Johnson
I had a full knee replacement and Steph really helped me get back to feeling confident and gave me the tools and encouragement to build myself to get back to work full time. I am so happy and I feel great. She was knowledgeable about asking me questions about my work duties and then she would give me exercises to make me feel confident to do my job when I went back to work. She has a great imagination implementing exercises for me. I also had Adrian and Max and what a workout they gave me. And the friendliness and helpfulness your staff showed me was incredible. I will recommend your facility to everyone I know that needs physical therapy. I have returned back to work feeling confident and happy. Thank you all for all you did for me mentally and physically. Thank you again – a friend for life. – Julianna Mora
I’m more aware now of the things I can do to help myself with chronic back pain; as well as hips, neck, and shoulder pain! The staff here was wonderful and extremely helpful. A special thank you to Stephanie and Max. I would recommend PT Connections to family, friends, or anyone seeking help to alleviate pain. – Gwen V. Nickolson
Michael was a great therapist who helped me get back on track after an MS flare-up. With his help, I am able to shower without a chair, grocery shop again using a cart, and stand to cook dinner. Thanks to him I have my “MS” normal body, strength, and balance back. Great to have my life back! – Bernice Zulian
Improved bending of knee after three surgeries to repair broken knee cap. Went from bending 42 degrees to 100 degrees. – Bobbi Reynolds
I was in pain for 2 ½ years before I came to PT Connections, I was in agony and I finally decided to do something about it. I came in thinking it would be torture. IT WASN’T!! I was skeptical at first because the exercises Stephanie showed me seemed too easy to do anything, but I kept coming. Exercises got tougher but seemed to be helping. 1 week before my last session I have no more pain, and the pain will stay gone thanks to Stephanie and the PT crew! Thank you!! – Tracy Thielemier
Not only am I pain free but I now have techniques to use on my own to avoid injury and build strength. The exercises/techniques were explained and demonstrated in a way that were easy to understand and remember when I tried them at home. I would highly recommend the friendly, competent staff at PT Connections! – Lana G. Woodruff
5/31/17I went someplace else at first (for therapy) and had very little improvement. Coming to PTC has made all the difference in the world. Each week I could see and feel improvement. They didn’t just tell me what to do and send me home, they actually did hands-on manipulation and massage. They pin pointed where the pain was and worked it out. I’m happy to say my shoulder feels great and the movement is back to normal. All of the staff here are wonderful. Stephanie McEvoy was my main therapist along with Max Madrid. I will never go anywhere else! – Linda M. Lucier
It helped my knee in every way. The pain is down to a 1/10 sometimes. Range of motion (has improved) to use the stairs and get down and up off the floor. Stephanie and Max were great and very good at their jobs. – Diana Roberts
When I came here I had chronic pain due to multiple injuries over the past 12 years. The pain was so bad I could no longer even lay in my bed and would have to use a recliner to get any sleep. I came in with five different shoulder problems but the rotator cuff is intact. I had steroid shots with short relief. Stephanie assessed me and turned me over to Max and started the exercise regime. He taught me to adjust and revise movements to minimize any pain, Max is a very good coach and helped to keep me motivated. I came here desperate and willing to do PT as I felt my shoulder was hopeless. I worked hard and did what was recommended and after 3 weeks I noticed real improvement and got more therapy prescribed by the Dr. Another 4 weeks and I can sleep in my own bed. I no longer need to use ice 3-4 x per day. I now feel very hopeful that as long as I continue doing exercises I was taught that one day I’ll be completely pain free. I know that I’ll have to exercise my shoulder the rest of my life to prevent a relapse of injury but today I’m willing to, to be pain free. I’m very grateful to the friendly people at PT Connections and that they decided to accept CHOICE VA. Patients must do it! Thanks guys. – David H.
Able to sit through meetings at work and ride my horse pain free.
“I now have a new family and feel like everyone was so nice and friendly there; it was amazing. I am recommending everyone I talk to that needs help to you. Thank you.” – Donna Ingland
“My shoulder surgery was much more limiting than I first thought. Michael Flores and Max Madrid have helped me regain my shoulder function and mobility. They have shown me how to continue making progress as I heal. Follow their directions and suggestions; they work.” – Robert Pettijohn
“When I first came in right after surgery, I was on a walker, hard time walking. Michael and Max worked patiently with me to improve and become pain free. The simple but helpful exercises they showed me literally changed my life. I went from pain every time I stepped to no pain in the right hip. Left hip will also need to be replaced in the next 6-8 months, and I will be back for therapy. I will also continue to do the exercises at home. Thank you all for giving me my life back.” – John Obrin
“My experience was amazing! Stephanie was amazing! Every time I left I felt so much better. First time I came I was limping. I would leave with less pain after every visit. Exercises are easy and simple to do. Everyone is so friendly and inviting. I truly enjoy my massages with Mike. Sam is great and always so accommodating. What more can I say! This is a great facility. Staff is unbelievable! I will continue to come and stay pain free. Thank you to All staff.” – Rosanna Padilla

“When I went for my first appt I couldn’t walk, stand, or sit for more than 5 minutes. Chad’s hands-on therapy and at-home exercises have given me my life back. I am improving with each visit. I never use my cane. I can walk for 20 minutes after seeing Chad for 4 months. I am happy to be on my way to living again.” – Kathleen Vadnal
“My experience has brought more awareness of retraining my core to fire when needed. Something needed after 3 pregnancies and feeling like those muscles were weakened and needed to be retrained to work properly. I will take this with me to be able to do the exercises I want in the future without compromising my back and core.” – Kristen Ruiz
“The M&M (Michael and Max) dynamic duo helped me in ways I can’t even begin to count. After having some issues with the incision site, I returned to therapy and both Michael and Max helped me get back to where I was before we had to do a second surgery. Always caring and concerned, they gave me a variety of exercises to strengthen and give me more flexibility in my knee. Both were always encouraging and helpful, explaining what the process of certain exercises does to help me get back to normal. I have received a new lease on life and will be forever grateful.” – Nona Wilson-Trujillo

“I can walk without pain, stand without pain… I feel like a new person. The PT was excellent, Stephanie explained everything and was very helpful” – Ramona Martinez
“The sessions showed me so many helpful exercises and stretches. This will help me to strengthen my entire body. The sessions always start with Sam’s friendly smile and “Hi Don”. The appointments always start on time. Max is a great guy and showed me movements that I use everyday. Dr. Stephanie is so smart, she introduced and taught me so many useful exercises to help my body strength, especially my back and knees. The print-outs, pictures and notes guide me everyday. Dr. Stephanie’s card of thanks was very nice.” – Don Konchenberger
” I became aware of multiple things I could do to help my problems: more stretches, more focus, and how to take better care of myself. I learned I need to take more time and work on me and let the work wait a little. Everyone was well educated in my condition, very kind, patient, friendly and helpful. I have many challenges and they addressed them all. They were comforting and explained things well.” – Joyce Gaya
” I was not afraid to complete my exercises at home. It was helpful to learn the correct way of strengthening my knees to prepare for surgery. The physical therapists are always positive and encouraging.” – Anna Segura

“I had great improvement after a knee replacement! I have my life back again! I loved the encouragement given by Max and Stephanie!” – Barbara Deselnus
“The PT folks are very helpful in how to work upper and lower knees, hips and walking. It was a great experience, I’d recommend to anybody with any physical issues… be it knee, back, hand or falls. Great staff, friendly and overall great experience for myself. If needed, I’d come back in the future.”- Geno Baca
“The staff at Physical Therapy Connections were very competent, friendly and welcoming.

I would definitely recommend this therapy group for anyone needing PT!” – Susan Allen

Stephanie and Max were wonderful. They showed me they cared and were concerned. Everything and everybody was great.” – Mary K Oreskovich
