Norfolk Integrative Mnl Therapy

Fantastic experience: Krysia was the first and only specialist that was able to identify and treat my neck injury as opposed to other doctors, neurologists, and physical therapists seen before. She is calm, professional, and adamant in explaining what she is doing and why to correct my injury. She also noticed the severity, and took the extra time to get a jump start at what I expected to be a long process. Before her, I was told it could take over and year of therapy before surgery, but she was able to correct within 4 months! I recommend her (and her team) to everyone - worth the wait for an appointment.

Fantastic experience: This place is phenomenal! The caliber of knowledge and care is unprecedented. After one session with Krysia my body is recalibrated and realigned in ways that a decade of bodywork has never achieved. Cannot recommend more highly––and fear that recommending highly will lead to difficulties in booking sessions, but sometimes the wait is worth it. Integrative is the Best.

Fantastic experience: I had facial nerve pain after Mohs surgery. One manual therapy session helped symptoms subside! I had another visit for shoulder pain after a fall. Again, after one session I felt some relief. No cortisone shots, no rushed visits. Comprehensive, hands-on care. All medicine should follow their model!

Fantastic experience: If you're in search of a highly skilled and profoundly knowledgeable physical therapy group, look no further than INTEGRATIVE Manual Therapy & Wellness. Hard stop. As someone who has struggled with chronic back and neck pain for 20+ years, finding a provider who truly understands multiple unique needs can be challenging - until I found INTEGRATIVE. I have never encountered such unparalleled professionalism and expertise! From my very first appointment I knew my concerns were being attentively listened to and that my condition(s) were being thoroughly assessed; the tailored and personalized treatment plan(s) developed to address my specific need(s) has quite literally made all the difference in my daily life.

This ain't your grandma's physical therapist y'all. INTEGRATIVE employs a diverse range of techniques and modalities - from osteopathic, holistic manual therapy, musculoskeletal exercise programs to deeply researched educational tools - and they communicate complex concepts in a clear and understandable way so that you're completely engaged in your treatment. But even beyond the tangible results, the encouragement and positive reinforcement over my 1+ year there as a patient there has instilled so much confidence in me, and has greatly motivated me to push through challenging stretches post-surgery.

Her entire team's dedication, expertise, and genuine concern for their patients' well-being make them a true asset to the field of physical therapy.

Fantastic experience: Referred to this business by a workout partner from my gym after trying four other physical therapy places in Norfolk with poor results. I am most pleased with my experiences to date. Krysia and team are fantastic. From the initial phone contact with Maureen who goes above and beyond with great customer service to hands on work with therapist, results are happening. Krysia's expertise and genuine passion for getting people well shows up in every session. Highly recommend starting your PT joinery here!

Fantastic experience: The distinctive atmosphere that depicts a spa like feel with the herbal essences captivate my mind upon entering. The quality care and professionalism given to my daughter is above par. I highly recommend this place!!!

Fantastic experience: First of all the place is beautiful! It’s like an art museum which is awesome! All the people I’ve dealt with with are amazing, kind and very professional! Very effective treatment! Highly recommend this place!

Fantastic experience: This place is fabulous! Not only is the treatment excellent, but the atmosphere is wonderful. The entire staff has been fantastic and 100% professional. They have good hours and are very helpful. I was referred by another client to this location, and I will absolutely recommend to anyone needing physical therapy. I have been using IMT for a few years now and have not been disappointed one time!

Fantastic experience: I was a regular runner getting around 100 miles a month. After an extended layoff from running I had severe pain in my lower legs. I could max out at about 2.5 miles and if I ran any distance I could not run for almost a week. I tried rest, getting advice from a running store on shoes, and other suggestions from the internet, nothing worked. After about 6 months of trying I talked to Krysia and she very clearly explained what the issue was and what was causing it. She gave me a few exercises to do and suggestion to change the heel drop in my shoe and explained why. In a matter of weeks I was running better. I recently ran 5k three times in a week for the first time in over a year and a half. Krysia was excellent, knowledgeable, and caring. I'm so happy that I went to her!

Fantastic experience: The fixed so much in my knees and feet it was amazing. ! Listen to them and you can't go wrong

Fantastic experience: Going to Integrative Manual Therapy and Wellness is the best health move I have made in decades. I have always done things fast and risky, and although I am good at falling, there was a day when I couldn’t get up. (And not like, “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up” - while body surfing, I almost broke my neck.) Combine that with skiing, snowboarding, running, doing my own housework, wallpaper removal, spackling, painting all the rooms in two houses and apartments, landscaping (including tree climbing and pruning), and a knack for walking where a dip suddenly comes up and knocks me out of joint. Not to mention back in the day, doing the Twist and using a Hula Hoop, both badly. Finish it off with the classic getting out of the car the wrong way. Or “sleeping wrong.” Nothing but sitting around to regain strength from illness, a lucky but brief encounter with a Navy Doctor of osteopathy, , leftover narcotics from surgery, or the 800mg of ibuprofen ever dulled my pain. (Oh, and one time after Yoga at the “Y,” I had a good day.) Two shoulder repairs, one spinal fusion, 70 plus years of age, and scores of falls and missteps from all the above have left me with recovered range of motion, recovery from a brief paralysis, and excellent physical therapy practices. On the other hand, there are age-related bone spurs, osteopenia, spinal stenosis, the spasms from the cervical fusion, tightness from jiggering what was left around my rotator cuff to repair, constant lower back pain, neck tension, and the near inability to take a really deep breath. After hundreds of chiropractor visits, six shots for lumbar pain, exercises, and more, my neighbor told me about the wonderful magic of Krysia Witkowski, osteopath and head healer at Integrative Manual Therapy. She and her staff, as the name suggests, integrate the alignment of “every bone in your body”, (and muscles, ligaments, tendons, and nerves) with the science of the body’s reactions to slow, painstaking, gentle, expert pressure, and repositioning. I may not have the right medical terms, but since I first visited Integrative Therapy, I have had days after rigorous shoveling, lifting loads, and strained movements when my back kills me. I know now to stretch and ease my body or move in ways I learned through the genius of Catherine, who does what I would describe as fixing one’s pains through tightening or relaxing the right body parts in the right poses. Krysia and Catherine practice their own specialties, tender examination and manipulation, and follow-up postural work, respectively. They have soothed me and taught me how to continue the correcting behavior I need, so I can feel better despite the abuse of time and being human.

Fantastic experience: Everyone here is so wonderful. I feel lucky to be their patient. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I have been to about 10 different physical therapy clinics in my life and I have NEVER received treatment as effective as I do here. EVERY single therapist who works here is unbelievably knowledgeable and caring. I wish I could give more than 5 stars.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Integrative manual therapy for a few months now and couldn’t be happier with the results. I have EDS and some other chronic illnesses that Krysia has helped me with tremendously, she is truly magic!! I’ve gone to a lot of other physical therapy offices and have never found one that has made such a difference in my healing. They are amazing!!!!

Fantastic experience: I have been in physical therapy for nearly five years now. I’ve tried 7 other PTs, before getting referred to Integrative. I can honestly say that this team is the best, hands down. 100/10 recommend. Krysia has so much training and experience, she is able to recognize other variables that can lead to the pain you’re experiencing. She’s more like a detective than anything. She was able to identify the true root cause of my pain, where no other doctors could. She is absolutely more intelligent and experienced than any of the physicians and surgeons that I have had before. Catherine has taken the exercise portion of PT to a completely different take that I’ve been used to getting from the military. She takes everything from Krysia’s analysis and develops a movement plan that helps develop strength and balance. I immediately recognized a difference, and found myself making these posture corrections instinctively now. And Maureen at the front desk has been so helpful with assisting me with all of my scheduling and documents. I love this team, and will recommend them to everyone!!

Fantastic experience: Night and day difference than the typical Navy physical therapy experience. The level of attention and care given here is unmatched. Very confident that I’ll have increased range of motion and minimal to no pain in my shoulder by the time I’m done with treatment.

Fantastic experience: I have had an absolutely wonderful experience here. The providers are extremely knowledgeable and attentive. They truly want to treat the "root cause" of the symptoms. I have never received physical therapy that takes such a holistic approach. Cured my chronic back pain!

Fantastic experience: I've had therapy before and it was not a positive experience so I have been hesitant to seek this type of care for a couple of years now . . . even though multiple family members recommended Krysia and Integrative Manual Therapy. I am so sorry I waited this long. One of the issues I have been dealing with for over 2 years is severe pain in my tail bone. I broke it and never sought care figuring there was nothing that could be done. My first session with Krysia and the pain was gone!! I had not realized how much the pain had affected me - my attitude, my moods, and energy level - but now that I don't live with that pain any longer, I feel like a new person. I still have quite a ways to go as there are several areas that need to be addressed but I have never been so optimistic that the care I am receiving will change my life for the better. THANK YOU, KRYSIA and Integrative Manual Therapy!!! You have changed my life! My family thanks you tooo :)

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy and appreciate the practitioners, customer service and facilities at INTEGRATIVE. Top notch team dedicated to helping us feel better through a whole person, holistic approach. I’m grateful that TRICARE referred me for physical therapy and related care at such a great place! Highly recommended, particularly for womens health!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful patient care. Awesome staff. If you need PT, this is the place.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful staff and comfortable atmosphere! I will definitely go back if I need more PT!
