After several months of distinct neck pain out of nowhere, my primary care physician referred me to Elite Physical Therapy, and the flexibility of the firms schedule made it easy to promptly set up an assessment and appointments. For starters, Joe conducted a thorough exam of my problem area and began with some preliminary exercises that were well within my realm of movement. He also prescribed some exercises I was perform at home between appointments and provided printed instructions with images to help me be sure that I was doing them correctly. Within the first week, I began to experience less neck pain as well as a greater range of movement as far as turning my head. With each successive appointment - usually two a week - Joe introduced new exercises on site and prescribed others for me to do independently, as well as applied area-specific, hands-on therapy to my neck, back and shoulders, always explaining the logic to whatever he was doing and recommending. Joe also demonstrated a knack for asking questions that would shed light on factors that might be contributing to my neck pain. These questions led to some recommendations that had a profound effect on my issues; these included an ergonomically correct work station in terms of the placement of my computer at a desk and how I position myself and my reading materials when enjoying a book in bed. I can honestly say that I am much more comfortable as a result of all Joes efforts, and am very glad that I was referred to him. His approach was consistently helpful and professional. In the small world department, my schools dance department also retains Joe to work with young artists who put their bodies through exhaustive training and performances all year. I was not aware of this prior to working with Joe, but I entirely understand this choice - he does good work.

I went to Elite Physical Therapy for an injured shoulder. I had been to other physical therapists, but had not made any improvement. Upon the recommendation of a friend who is a semi-pro athlete, I went to Joe Heiler for therapy. Within a few short weeks, my shoulder has improved substantially. In fact, I am almost completely healed, and have no pain After nine months of pain, that is a relief! Additionally, Joe Heiler works with patients to regain lost strength. Over the months I was injured, I had lost significant muscle tone. With the therapists expertise and training, I have regained, and even improved, the strength in my arm and shoulder. I highly recommend Elite Physical Therapy and Sports Performance. Hopefully, I wont be injured again. But if I am, this is the first place I will call.

probably the best physical therapy in all of northern mi, and lower Michigan and trust me with my health Ive used a few different ones. the staff is the best they work around your schedule very friendly and are concerned for your well being. they were able to get me to do something no other physical place could do and that was getting me to almost touch my toes and better movement with my walking. also made it so I was back on my feet after knee surgery much quicker. for your physical therapy needs the only place I would highly recommend is Elite they are the tops in my books enough said

Over the years I have had severe head and neck trauma. I had severe pain and spasms with limited movement. I was referred to Joe for physical therapy. After the exercise program he gave me and the needle therapy, I began noticing significant improvement in neck movement and the spasms diminished significantly. Not quite 100% yet but am looking forward to further therapy with him. I would highly recommend Joe for physical therapy. Thank you Joe for your help. You have been a blessing to me.

I went to Elite PT initially for plantar fasciitis based on my doctors recommendation. She had referred me there specifically for the graston technique. Within weeks Jessi had my foot feeling better. A year later, I was having shoulder/neck pain so I thought I would try message with Jessi. She went above and beyond message and also set me up with exercises. Again, after a few weeks and Ive noticed a difference in my pain level.

I went to see Joe for a headache that was driving me crazy. In the first session, he took me through a thorough evaluation to figure out the cause, provided a treatment, and then explained to me why I had a headache and how to prevent it from coming back. I left his clinic after the first session pain free and feeling good! I highly recommend this physical therapy clinic!

Throughout my military career I have seen multiple physical therapists. Joe is by far the best PT I have been to. As an athlete I felt like he knew my body better than I did. On multiple occasions I have had issues that he new exactly how to fix. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable.

Elite PT has not only helped me become a better athlete through sessions of their Sports Performance Training, but have helped me remain healthy for my collegiate season through the use of Functional Dry Needling and other innovate techniques not found elsewhere in Northern Michigan.
