Our Philosophy

At Vitality Physical Therapy, we are pleased to offer you a different experience. Our goal is to provide you with quality and individualized care without the hassles of using an insurance based system. Our model is advantageous for many reasons, including reduced time between injury and start of care and avoiding unnecessary medical visits, which ultimately leads to less health care spending and getting back to pre injury levels more quickly.

Unfortunately, insurance companies have difficult processes, preauthorizations, may not approve needed treatments, declining reimbursement rates, etc. that negatively impacts patient care. This has led to patients being with their physical therapist for short periods of time, use of care extenders such as using unlicensed personnel to deliver care, double booking, being scheduled between several therapists, etc., which reduces the quality of care provided to patients. Ultimately, this leads to suboptimal care and patients not making progress.

At Vitality Physical Therapy, you will always be treated one-on-one for one hour with a doctor of physical therapy for good continuity and quality of care. Your treatment will be tailored specifically to you and your goals, which will allow you to quickly return to doing the things you love.

How Can We Help You?

Our goal is to help you lead a healthy and active lifestyle. We are movement experts who improve quality of life through prescribed exercise, hands-on care, and patient education.

Ohio is a direct access state, meaning you can come straight to physical therapy without a referral. Your therapist is trained to determine if you are appropriate for physical therapy services or need a referral to another provider. Given your consent, we would be happy to communicate with other health care providers on your care.

If you're not sure where to start, contact us for a free 15 minute consultation to see if we can help you by clicking the 'Book an Appointment' button and selecting the phone consultation appointment.

New Patient Physical Therapy Evaluation

You will receive a thorough one hour evaluation to discover the root cause of your problem. We will ask you questions about your injury history and goals, perform an exam, evaluate and discuss the findings with you, and determine a plan of care. This session will include initial treatment and a home exercise program.

Physical Therapy Treatment

Treatment will be one hour and may include: therapeutic exercises, neuromuscular re-education/motor control training, education, manual techniques (hands on techniques), gait training, and dry needling. An important part of your rehabilitation is your home exercise program, which will be updated frequently to help you reach your goals .

Wellness and Fitness

If you're doing all the things you want to do and have no injuries or limitations, but want to improve your fitness then this session will benefit you. This session will include performing a movement assessment (how does your squat, deadlift, overhead reach look, etc.) and prescribing mobility exercises, strengthening, and/or motor control exercises to optimize your movement.
