I have a yet to be explained, gradually progressive lower limb neuropathy with bilateral loss of sensation, position sense, and some degree of neuropathic pain present for many years but recently of more trouble causing me to seek advice from my primary care doctor which resulted in some testing, referral to a neurologist (pending) and referral to Spirit winds. I am greatly impressed by this facility, primarily staffed and run by young women, as well as a kind older man, versed in various modalities of learning about, recording, and helping one learn to deal with such problems as mine. I think I have seen, over the two months or so I was in attendance there, all of the Physical Therapists there and each seemed very well qualified to treat me. The clinic has a well run front desk that makes sure I did not miss any appointments and which has a friendly sitting room where one can wait to get in for treatment that is very pleasant. The initial eval (indeed, each tech does his or her own evaluation each time you present to make sure you understand what you were supposed to do since the last treatment and to add to the educational/treatment process) was, in my opinion, very effective for me. That eval talked about what I hoped to achieve, and gave me very specific treatment there to try to effect some improvement at once as well as over time. They very clearly and immediately update (on computers) what they do and what the patient is instructed in each time one is seen and they review each others notes at each visit. You should expect exercises to take home and they expect you to do them as well as checking at each return visit how you are doing the assigned "home work". The secretary at the front desk is a highly competent woman who has sheets of instructions ready for you after each class and who engages each patient each time they come in with kindness. The clinic is laid out in a way that both offers privacy, if needed, and an open environment. They have many tools immediately at hand and are adept at when to use them. I would recommend this facility (as a very much retired Physicians Assistant) to anyone needing physical therapy. They are even sending their notes to the neurologist seeing me in a month to let that doctor know in what manner I have progressed and what they have observed. My opinion? First rate physical therapy given by very caring professionals well versed in their craft. They also wish the patient a happy birthday;-).

I first started seeing Michelle and crew a few years ago for a bum hip - before and after surgery. Their patience, caring, and dedication are just as amazing as their knowledge about how to help you heal. Im seeing them again currently for problems with my lumbar spine and, again, they are helping my pain ease and setting me up for a better-working body. Not only do they help my body, but they also listen and help ease the problems that come mentally and emotionally from being in pain and feeling broken. I cant say enough wonderful things about them. Theyre like an extended family.

Ive been a patient off and on for a number of years and return when I need to because of the personnel. There are words such as excellent treatment, considerate, attention to specific problems (and some I didnt know I had) and humankindness that apply to this group. When there is any type of emergency, there is always room made for that patient. I wholeheartedly recommend Spirit Winds to anyone willing to experience the healing process provided by them.

Ive had a lot of PT in the last 10 years for back and hip issues. After having a total hip replacement early this year, I began my rehab with Michele at Spirit Wind. She is smart , compassionate, quickly assesses your needs and follows through with genuine concern and support for your well being and recovery. Her support staff is equally conscientious , helpful. and positive.

After going to a different physical therapist for many months I am so happy to report a marked decrease in my leg and knee pain after just a matter of weeks with Janev Alvarez. She has healing hands, a compassionate demeanor and gave me home exercises to do that have made a huge difference. The office itself is calm and peaceful. I recommend the business and Janev highly.

I love going to PT at Spirit Winds. The staff -- therapists, assistants and office staff -- are caring and knowledgeable. I have learned a lot about my body, how it works or doesnt, and how to work through/around the physical issues. I leave my appointments feeling like Ive spent my time at a spa! Highly recommend Spirit Winds PT.

So happy with the amazing services I am receiving. I love how well rounded treatment. They use a philosophy of having their clients see several practitioners so they get the best treatment possible. I am seeing great results in a short period of time. I actually look forward to going to my sessions each week!

Spirit Winds staff assess your situation throughly and provide personalized therapy programs. They provide 60 minutes of one to one treatment at each visit. I have been to physical therapy at other places many times, but have never gotten the personal, individual attention provided at Spirit Winds.

Spiritwinds should change their name to healingwinds, as the health improvement is so noticeable after treatment. For me this is my first stop when visited by pain
