Tremendous physical therapy clinic! Take it from someone whos had over 12+ surgeries on various joints--this is by far the best PT clinic I have ever used. Ive been at the Ft Lowell location for approximately 4 months. 4 things that set this clinic apart from others: 1-THE ATMOSPHERE! The folks that work here outwardly appear that they enjoy their practice and it reflects into the environment that you work in as a patient. Pushing through pain, whether it be stretching, range of motion, or strengthening exercises is never pleasant by itself, however, these guys find a way to make it as enjoyable as possible. To put it squarely, patients have FUN here! From the office administrator, to the clinic director, to each of the PT Techs, the all have personalities that are supportive (NOT drill Sergeant-like), caring, witty (thats where the fun comes in), and passionate about your improvement and success. I sometimes have a better attitude/mood after PT than before arriving! 2-The Director of the clinic, Lukas. Super knowledgeable, without a hint of being condescending or talking over my head. He takes the time to explain why I perform the rehabilitation exercises that are prescribed, how they benefit me, and what I may have been doing in the past that are not congruent to successful function. He gets it...he understands that if I dont understand and prescribe to better functional exercises and habits OUTSIDE the PT clinic that the twice a week therapy at the clinic is only going to get me so far and Ill probably be back in the future with a related or even worse injury. As such, he ensures patient education that resonates uniquely for each patient is part of the clinics culture. Ive worked with Brittany as well and shes the same way, incredibly knowledgeable and wanting to articulate the educational piece that transcends how other clinics operate with just "going through the motions". Brittany has her own style and personality (as they all do) but is a reflection of the culture and vision that Lukas has cultivated at this clinic. 3-RESULTS! For my current situation, I was full of skepticism and thought there was NO way I was going to overcome my issue without surgery (thats what numerous surgeries will do to you, condition you to think its the only answer). I was referred to Lukas Athlon clinic and arrived convinced that it would be the typical "shut up and do these exercises" experience and that Id do 8-10 sessions without improvement and show my surgeon that he needs to get me on the surgery table to improve my knee issue. Wow, was I wrong! Through inspirational therapy sessions, education, understanding my physiological muscle weaknesses (are you kidding me?!), and functional bad habits, Ive made remarkable improvement and will not require surgery. More so, I now have an awareness to the exercises, motions, and functions that are conscious on my mind that Ill be able to apply in my daily routines that will be preventative, hopefully avoiding additional aggravations over time. Also, the clinic makes your particular program exercises available online (including mobile devices) with videos and explanations so that you easily refer to them on days between clinic sessions. 4-Office administration. Rene is awesome! Works with me on scheduling that works around my job, never making me feel like I have to just take their first available opening. She calls me when the have openings on my scheduled day in the event that I want to come in earlier, etc. You can tell she runs the office efficiently and removes any issues with the paperwork or scheduling of your therapy. Finally, Rene makes you feel like you are valued and greets you with a big smile and courtesy (ever feel like you are troubling someone at a front desk to help you?! NOT HERE!!!)! To wrap it up: This clinic has it together and a fun and fantastic combination of providers and techs. If you require any sort of physical therapy, come to this clinic, YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED!

I just finished a couple of months of therapy at the Tanque Verde office of Anthlon Physical Therapy. Amanda, Aileen, Anna, Claudia, Lydia, Jack, Jonathan and Sam are all such wonderfully compassionate people. I feel 100% better then when I started, all to their credit. I would recommend this physical therapy office to anyone. Go to Athlon, get better physically and make new friends!

As a somewhat injury prone person, Ive been here a few times. The staff is incredibly caring, and fun to be around. At the same time, they are very skilled and will help you recover from surgery or injury.
