All employees are compassionate, courteous, respectful, and patient-focused. The staff was extremely mindful of safety and cleanliness. I mainly worked with Michelle Chin. Michelle pushed me through the hard times to get my mobility and strength back while providing great encouragement. Your knowledge, professionalism, concern and friendliness were much appreciated. There were doubts/questions before PT but now I am a believer. Allison was always on top of scheduling, follow up, and promptness. It was pleasant experience and highly recommended.

Dr. Roz at Empower Physical therapy is amazing, super friendly, kind, caring, compassionate and extremely knowledgeable. I’ve been to >6 different places for physical therapy over at least 5 years now for different problems and this has been the best place I’ve gone to. It’s not one PT to 4 different patients going back and forth between them and they spend nearly the entire time with you. All the staff there is great. If you need physical therapy Dr. Roz is definitely the best!

My name is Duffy Blau. My Doctor sent me to Empower Physical Therapy because I was experiencing extreme pain on my right shoulder. I was unable to play golf which is my favorite sport. I actually thought it was going to be a long while before I picked up a club again. However, to my surprise, my shoulder pain decreased significantly after the second session. By the third session, I was back on the golf course playing with hardly any pain. Now I am playing golf twice a week with no pain at all. To prevent another injury, I am going to them twice a month just for maintenance. I fully endorse this place. If you need anything related to physical therapy, then Empower Physical Therapy is the place to go. These people are professional, friendly and effective. My therapist is Dr. Roz and she has saved my golf career.She is great and I owe her many thanks!!

This place is great. Carlo the Owner and Dr. is very attentive and generous with his time. He really tries to get to the root of the problem when you go to him. He explains everything so you understand what he’s trying accomplish. Then he gives you the exercises necessary to help u correct what’s going on with your body.

Dr Carlo and team are a Godsend. After years of chronic back pain from a sports injury and thousands of dollars spent on several other so called experts, I finally found a place that not only “gets it”, has been effective in treating the pain from the source.Not to mention the great energy and spirit of everyone who works there. Absolutely recommend!

Dr. Roz and the rest of the team at Empower were extremely supportive and helpful throughout my recovery process. I can't say enough about how much I enjoyed and appreciated working with this team.

Dr.Carlo and his team have been working with me to get my strength back after a car accident left me disabled and in terrible back pain. I experienced numbness and nerve pain throughout my back and legs unrelieved with pain medications. My family is amazed with the progress I have made because of Dr. Carlo! I recommend them to everyone. They’re professional, they care about my progress, and they have been able to help me when more traditional treatments failed.

What can I say about Dr. Carlo?!!! He is truly amazing at what he does! I was experiencing lower back pain, more of a dull constant achy feeling for more than 18 months. Finally decided to seek physical therapy for my issue. Through my initial consultation with Dr. Carlo and talking about some of my previous injuries and observed biomechanics, he was able to determine the root cause of my low back pain and within TWO visits, my pain is 80% GONE!!! I can’t begin to describe the enormous sense of relief and joy I feel now, being able to get back to “normal” activities without that constant nagging ache!Thank you Dr. Carlo! I’m eager to continue my treatment for my low back pain and wouldn’t hesitate to seek him for his wisdom and knowledge to getting me back to feeling normal!!!

The staff is knowledgeable, the quality of care is incomparable, and each staff member truly cares for their patients. I can't recommend them enough.

My time at Empower Physical Therapy has been nothing but positive, encouraging, and an overall amazing experience. From the first day, I felt like I was heard and that they understood my issues with both my upper and lower back. I’ve had these issues for years, and I have never seen such progress in my back before coming here. I felt that every employee there, from the PTs to Exercise Specialists to the front desk, was there for me and treated me with so much compassion. I formed a relationship with nearly every person there, and I was only there for less than a month. I am planning to pursue a career in Occupational Therapy, and this experience has showed me how I want to treat my future patients. I would and will highly recommend Empower to any of my friends and family in need of an exceptional Physical Therapy experience!

My time at Empower Physical Therapy was truly a blessing. From the front desk, physical assistants, and physical therapists are amazing. I came into Empower with a torn ACL, meniscus, and a dislocated patella, which resulted in a long recovery process. I was fairly impressed with how attention to detail all the physical therapists are in the recovery process. Every time I came in, it was always a one on one experience working in different areas to improve and ultimately get stronger. After I finally got cleared from the Empower team, this is the most mentally confident I've ever felt from a serious injury. The overall atmosphere at the facility is tremendous, always super friendly and inviting. Throughout my 12-month recovery process, I would highly recommend Empower Physical Therapy if you are recovering from any injury.

It has been a month since my final session at Empower and my workouts are back and better than expected. There has only been one reminder that I ever had an injury and it lasted for a nanosecond. I now have the strength and the confidence of full mobility in my shoulder. My ortho specialist was also pleased two weeks ago during my follow up appointment. I highly recommend Empower. At 54 I am now a believer in good physical therapy. Thanks Empower for empowering me. - Maurice

TLDR: This place is amazing with knowledgeable and attentive staff. 100% recommend.I went to Empower Physical Therapy in search of a longer term PT due to being a highly active individual. I worked with Michelle DPT and from day 1, she was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and highly attentive. I've been to other PT offices before where they give you an exercise and come find you 10 minutes later. Michelle will keep an eye on you and make sure your form is perfect before watching from a distance. The PTAs were also amazing and very helpful as well. Scheduling was made very simple with the highly responsive coordinator, Sarah. Theyre very understanding when it comes to changing or canceling appointments. I 100% recommend this place and will definitely return when future injuries occur.

I had right knee total replacement in November of 2019 I began preoperative care at Empower about a month out from surgery and I did all of my post operative PT with them as well. I highly recommend them...they all do an amazing job. My primary therapists were Michelle and Rosslyn and they are both amazing very encouraging and supportive while at the same time pushing me hard so I could recover strong and quick. Sarah does an outstanding job of running the front office and all the logistics involved she was very helpful when I ran into small insurance issues. With all their help I was able to return to full duty as a firefighter with in 6 months of surgery...I recommend them 100% !!

I came here after a ski accident (torn ACL) right as COVID hit back in March. I required surgery but everything was placed on hold due to the pandemic restrictions. The team at Empower was able to improve my mobility back to a full range of motion and allow me to return to full daily function as I prepared/waitied for surgery. They were flexible with my work schedule, the front desk is amzing to work with, and the attention and care you receive from the PT's is amazing. No one LIKES to go to physical therapy but working with the team at Empower made it sooo much more enjoyable than past PT experiences. If my family and I weren't being forced to move I would 100% be back to rehab here after surgery. Going to miss you guys!

I Met Dr Carlo at a church event. I went in for an evaluation, not really knowing what to expect. I’ve had a herniated disk and have suffered from mild to severe back pain. I had been unable to sleep on my bed and slept on the floor instead. Thanks to Dr Torres and the rest of the staff there who helped me with my therapies, I am now in much less pain, and able to sleep on my bed. Thank you Dr Carlo and team, for empowering me!

Finding a place to rehab my knee was easy, as soon as I came to Empower Physical Therapy I didn't want to look anywhere else. From the front desk to assistants and doctors, the level of professionalism and knowledge was top notch. I was back to work in a short time. They gave me the tools needed to further strengthen my knee and continue to lead an active sports lifestyle at 40 years old. The people at Empower gave me a very positive outlook on physical therapy.

Empower Physical Therapy has been one of the best places I ever went to get physical therapy. Thanks to Dr. Carlo and the rest of the crew I was able to get back to doing physical activities as soon as possible without any problems. Thank you guys so much!!

I had ACL reconstruction surgery in August 2019 and started PT in September 2019. From Day 1, the staff at Empower has been AMAZING! Sarah helped me get my initial consultation appointment almost immediately after being cleared to start PT and since then has accommodated my schedule to make sure I get in all my sessions. Dr. Carlo and his team, Dr. Michelle and Dr. Roz together with their awesome aides, Lauren and Elijah, have really made sure that my recovery and my eventual return to my active life has been smooth and essentially pain free. The exercises that they have given me in and out of the office have helped my knee to get stronger every day. I initially thought that my recovery would be long and daunting, but with their help has been shorter and easier than expected. What’s even better is that they are all such wonderful, genuinely caring individuals who care about their patients. I’d recommend Empower Physical Therapy and Wellness to anyone in need of overcoming pain from an injury or surgery.

In February I got into a really bad car accident and I noticed it messed up my back pretty bad to the point I couldn't bend down at all. I was going to a least 5 different chiropractors but NOTHING was working out for me. I honestly lost faith and I was frustrated because I had plans to leave for the military this year. Not until my mom found out about Empower Physical Therapy!! its been about 2 months since I have been going and honestly I'm so happy noticing the progress and results. After a year I'm finally being active again!! Starting in January I'm joining boxing boot camp and training to leave for the military this upcoming year! I totally recommend this place!! Everyone is so friendly, they work with you, and motivate you to do your best!

I've been going to Empower Physical Therapy for approximately five months. The staff is professional and care about me and my wellbeing. In the past, my son, needed physical therapy for his sprained ankle and he said the staff were nice. I took this as a sign that if my son felt comfortable, I would feel the same. Dr. Torres, and Dr. Nava and staff are the best.

Dr. Carlo and Empower Physical Therapy is the best. They are all so friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable. I’ve been suffering from back pain for over 10 years and had 2 back surgeries in between that time. I have been to a few physical therapists and no one has come close to what Dr. Carlo and his team offers. After my second back surgery 2 years ago I came to Empower with fear. Fear that I can no longer do the activities I use to do with my 3 young kids and that I had to accept that back pain will be with me the rest of my life. However Dr. Carlo has build my strength, my confidence and gave me enough skills to overcome all that. I have never felt stronger, felt this long term pain relief in my back in so long and the best part is I am living my best life with my kids. I now no longer need pain medication because all I need to do is go see Dr. Carlo. I’m currently on a maintenance program and highly recommend it, it is truly the best preventative measure I can do for back. Go see Dr. Carlo and his team, you won’t be disappointed. They have become part of my family over the years.

I can’t say enough good things about the Empower Physical Therapy team. They’ve treated me for back, wrist, and knee injuries and I have received the best of care with just the right amount of motivation and encouragement. The entire team is beyond friendly, kind, patient, and caring and helped me so very much! Many, many thanks to Dr. Carlo and the whole team!

After searching my community for a place to rehab my surgically repair hip, I was fortunate to fine Empower Physical Therapy. My first impression was how nice and friendly the staff were, as well as the cleanliness of the center. After my initial consultation with the Doctors, they mapped out a course of recovery that would get me back to the life I enjoyed. The doctors and staff worked with me weekly, and monitored my progress, while encouraging me every step of the way. The personalized attention and pleasant environment made my recovery enjoyable. Thank you Empower Physical therapy! I am truly satisfied and happy with the results of your Physical Therapy and will gladly offer referrals. You guys are the best.Sincerely Jeff S.

I can’t say enough about the staff here at empower physical therapy and wellness. The location is small but what they lack in size, they more than make up with the amount of care and attention they give to their patients. I was involved in a motorcycle collision and needed a spot to do physical therapy. I happened to find this place by luck but I’m glad I did. The staff was so encouraging and easy to talk to that it made going to physical therapy truly enjoyable. I highly recommend this place to anyone.

I was able to apply the stretches and exercises into my daily workout routine enabling me to recover, heal and strengthen my injured body part. Extremely thankful to Empower Physical Therapy for their help!

The staff at Empower are amazing! Michelle, has done wonders in helping reduce the swelling and pain in my hand/wrist and regain both its mobility and strength. She takes my personal needs into account and is quick to make adjustments where needed. Lauren and Paige and the rest of the staff are all amazing and make the environment fun and friendly!

Dr. Carlo, and the whole team, are terrific. I had muscle pain in my right leg and could hardly walk without a lot of pain. Several doctors I visited just gave me pain pills but could not fix the problem. One doctor referred me to Dr. Carlo. He knew what the problem was after a 30 minute visit. He began therapy and within a few weeks most of the pain was gone. Now I can walk normally again. He is helping me regain balance now.The team he has assembled know what they are doing and they are friendly and very supportive.I highly recommend Empower.

The Empower Team is 6 stars so not sure why I have to settle for 5. But at any rate, they are amazing. Friendly, Professional, knowledgeable and committed to your well being. I have voluntarily been coming here for almost 1 year and I have made consistent improvements each and every time. After seeking treatment from several other PT facilities, Empower comes full circle with all my needs and is hands down, THE BEST.

First off I would like to say that I absolutely love this place. I enjoy every appointment I have had so far and I am always excited for the next one.I started going to Empower PT because of a gym accident back in November 2018 that gave me lower back pain. Not only was I in pain daily from it, but I lost a lot of confidence and love I had for going to the gym. Thankfully my sister signed me up for empower about two months ago and I can truly say that was the best thing that happened to me. The staff is incredible, they help you make significant progress with obtaining the recovery you want.Everyone is very friendly, they do their best to make you feel comfortable, and make you feel like you’re apart of the empower family. They helped me tremendously and I highly recommend anyone to go here!

This is my third time using Empower Physical Therapy and Wellness. They got me back to work as soon as possible and enjoy the things I like to do on my free time like working out and playing golf. Dr. Carlo and Dr. Alex have been amazing helping with my back injury. Lauren and Paige were there to help every step of the way. Everyone always has a smile on their face and engage in great conversation while helping with all the exercises, stretching and stim or TENS therapy. Sarah is always on top of setting my appointments or rescheduling when needed. They have a great office atmosphere that's welcoming, easy going and fun - all the while pushing you to get better and reach the goals you set for yourself when you start your PT appointments there. Dr. Alex even helped me get rid of my vertigo when it struck me out of the blue for the first time in my life. What a life saver! Can't say enough good things about this place and would recommend them to anybody who needs physical therapy for a work or sports injury or for any physical therapy you need for any reason.

Great staff and really amazing facility! Everyone is there to help you reach your goals and ensure you recover or improve your health. They also have worked with my insurance companies and made sure I could see them, despite some issues with billing. They were incredibly helpful and made sure I could get the best care possible without any hassle from insurance. Dr. Alex and Dr. Carlos have been very knowledgeable to work with, making sure I understand what I have to do and making it all fun and possible!
