Corvallis Healing Motion Physical Therapy

Fantastic experience: I worked with Dr. Alana Chaplin Arey at Healing Motion from September 2023 - January 2024. I entered PT at one of the lowest points in my life. At that point, my arm injury had caused me pain every day for six months. My lifestyle had changed, and I wasn't sleeping for more than four hours a night. I was lethargic, depressed, and hopeless. I can say Dr. Alana at Healing Motion helped empower me to take my life back. I've never encountered anyone like her within the medical field. She met me where I was with such amazing compassion and empathy. She is personable, genuine, intelligent, caring, and encouraging. She made me feel heard and seen every time I worked with her. She was also realistic when it came to the healing process. From day one, she was upfront about the length of time it would take for me to start to feel better. She gave me exercises that I enjoyed, and even looked forward to doing. If I didn't like an exercise, then she would find an alternative that I liked better. All the exercises are uploaded onto an easy-to-use phone app. Once my arm started to improve, she worked with me on issues I was having with my hip. She even offered her email once I completed PT, if I had any questions, or concerns. Overall, my life looks very different today. Thanks to Dr. Alana and Healing Motion, I now have the tools and confidence to continue strengthening my body and manage any pain.

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough good things about this practice. It’s like no other. They don’t use physical therapy assistants. You get to see your doctor of physical therapy for the whole session. I am treated as a whole person instead of a sum of my parts. I’ve had a great experience all around.

Fantastic experience: When my daughter had a great experience with Healing Motion I knew that was where I needed to go. Emma Bowman has helped me regain mobility and strength in my arm and gave me a routine to address my injury. The office staff and new facility has exceeded my expectations. They are so kind and helpful. I actually cannot think of a critique. Thank you Healing Motion… you are the place to go to for our physical therapy needs.

Fantastic experience: I've worked with Healing Motion for a couple of years now on various physical therapy issues and every one has been great! They seem to have specialists in many fields, I highly recommend them!

Fantastic experience: Excellent staff and customer service. They really try to work with your schedule. I was able to get in on a cancellation list a few times. Michelle Tyndall is a very skilled physical therapist and she will teach you about the muscles in your body as she is helping you to heal.

Fantastic experience: I'm so grateful to have my good health back. Everyone at Healing Motion was helpful,beginning withhe front office keepers.The amazing Dr. Alana took me through a series of treatments that brought me back to flexibility and pain-free days. This physical therapy practice group was recommended to me, and I would heartily recommend the same to anyone needing physical therapy.

Fantastic experience: I saw Cassie for pelvic physical therapy after recovering from a hysterectomy and excision surgery for endometriosis. She was incredible. She took things at my pace, provided me with tons of resources and suggestions, and taught me life-changing information about my body. I truly don't believe I'd be feeling as good as I do today without her treatment. In addition, Cassie was warm and heartfelt in her care, and took the time to get to know me beyond my medical conditions and struggles. The whole team at Healing Motions is wonderful and I received nothing but good customer service from their front office. Really a phenomenal group of people taking good care of their patients. Highly recommend Cassie for anyone struggling with pelvic pain and related issues.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic Clinic if you love: punctuality, great customer service, and excellent individualized attention to your rehab needs. I highly recommend! Michelle is a fantastic PT too!

Fantastic experience: Post hip replacement rehab. Careful attention to details. Strong support AND advocating for you with health care/insurance issues. Great staff. I’m back to all the things I love doing thanks to Dr. Alana and the rest of their staff!

Fantastic experience: I have had two appointments so far, and I am very pleased with the help I am receiving. I had been very discouraged, but my work with my physical therapist has given me hope that I will see positive changes.

Fantastic experience: If you're looking for evidence based practice with folks who really made you feel heard, this is the place to go. My provider is incredibly knowledgeable about the most recent scientific rationale and research about my injury and ways to recover. 10/10 would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Staff is friendly and helpful. Facility is clean and well kept. Dr Cassie McDonald-Ross is awesome and I look forward to continuing my journey working with her.

Fantastic experience: Excellent service. The PT is personal, well tailored to individual needs and abilities, and they make sure that you are fixed or on the path to fixed before you leave. Dr. Tyndall was a 10/10.

Fantastic experience: My therapist Alana was excellent in her attentive to my specific issues and prescribed the exact exercises which improved my condition. The rest of the staff were excellent as well.

Fantastic experience: I am very happy with my first PT appointment with Dr. McMillan! He was open to hearing what I wanted to get across, his ideas make sense, and his therapeutic touch during assessment felt knowledgeable and respectful.

Fantastic experience: I followed several DPT's over to HMPT when they opened their facility. Peter has been very professional & accommodating with my jaw issue.

Fantastic experience: I have established treatment with Peter and Michelle, and could not esteem either of them any more highly. I feel so well informed, and optimistic, about the future of my injuries, and the office and staff are also phenomenal. Very grateful!

Fantastic experience: My PTs here have been so patient and kind to my situation. I am improving to a point that I never thought I could before. The holistic approach to continuity of care and cluing in all providers to needs and specific issues for each person is excellent. You'll be in great hands.

Fantastic experience: I’ve had plenty of knee injuries (3 ACL tears, and a few others), and Healing Motion has been by far my favorite PT clinic. Their attention to the whole body and its connectivity has helped me heal in a way that I haven’t been able to before. I couldn’t be more grateful for the support I’ve received from the several therapists I’ve had the pleasure of working with. Highly highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I was very impressed with the professionalism and knowledge of Dane at Healing motion. He listened to me and gave me specific exercises for my shoulder and hand. Even on the waitlist, I was able to get in in a timely manner to get going on my healing. I highly recommend Dane!

Fantastic experience: Dane is an outstanding PT in all ways! He is great at evaluating what is going on, extremely organized in his treatment plan and communicates it very clearly, provides awesome background education along the way, and he's super personable and kind. Healing Motion PT rocks!

Fantastic experience: Very professional, very caring. Michelle has walked me through both spinal surgery preparation and now recovery. Her hands on and her assigned exercises have been very helpful in pain reduction and flexibility.

Fantastic experience: Thank goodness that we have the good folks at Healing Motion, to get us through the rough patches. The therapists are informative and "professional" in their practice. I am getting better, faster than I ever imagined. These folks are great!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Alana is an amazing PT. She gave clear instructions and was super helpful in walking me through my various exercises. She modified the ones that needed to be so that my core and lower back could get stronger without hurting myself in the process. Thanks for all of the sessions!

Fantastic experience: Cassie is amazing. Very attentive, kind, understanding, and welcoming. I don't know how her and her team could do better. It is very clear that they care and have taken the time to make the patients experience the best it can be. I felt safe here. I can't recommend this place enough! ❤️

Fantastic experience: I have seen several physical therapists and chiropractors in the past for back pain and Alana at Healing Motion was by far the best. She carefully listened to me about my pain and designed a program that has my body feeling better than before my first back injury. The front desk staff was great and it was always easy to schedule appointments. I highly recommend this business if you are in need of PT!

Fantastic experience: I've been through Physical Therapy a couple of times for various issues, but my experience with Healing Motion was definitely my favourite - and most successful! Doc Bowman had great energy and really worked out a care routine that worked for my life. I really appreciated how she explained why we used different exercises and what purpose they served. Additionally, I found the front desk staff to be really welcoming, and appreciated how communicative the office was overall. I think that Healing Motion is a great place to get your therapy done if you're in need!!

Fantastic experience: From Peter Erskine I am 81 years old and have tried three different physical therapy offices in Corvallis. Only Healing Motion gets my 5 Star Review. In less than a year, Michelle Tyndal and Dane Happeny helped me get over 90% improvement with chronic fallen arches, chronic leg and lower back pain - and even dental TMJ! 1. Fallen arches: For years I had used $400 custom orthotics which only worked for a year or 2 then had to be replaced with something even more corrective. In 9 months of working together Healing Motion solved my 20 year fallen arches problem with an exercise routine I still use. No more foot pain, even with long walks. 2.Chronic Leg and Back Pain: I’ve had chronic leg an back pain from an accident 50 years ago. Over the years I’ve I tried PT, Chiropractic and Osteopaths, with only minor and temporary improvement. Michelle and Dane worked with me over the past year, and those nagging pains have also 90% lessened with only occasional flare-ups. And they help me get those under control with a “touch up“ visit. AMAZING! 3. And finally Dental TMJ - of all things: I recently got a tooth implant from my dentist which caused some nerve problems and TMJ - Jaw pain and immobility. My dentist had no answers for me and suggested I see and orthodontist. Again Dane fixed it in 2 weeks with some in-office massage and take home exercises! In 81 years, Healing Motion is the best PT I’ve ever had. Also, they give me appointments very quickly so feel better quicker. Peter Erskine Corvallis, OR

Fantastic experience: I completed a self-referral back in November after experiencing discomfort with running. I requested to see Dr. McMillan and was so grateful I did. He took the time to evaluate and discuss what was causing the discomfort. He is very knowledgeable, attentive, and caring. Without his help, I wouldn’t have been able to reach my personal training goals. Thank you, Healing Motion Physical Therapy. I highly recommend coming to this office.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Cassie was amazing! With her help I was able to have a successful to sports. She came up with a customized work out plan that fit my postpartum needs. 100% recommend

Fantastic experience: Suffered from Sciatica and these guys were able to help me by "Coaching" me out of it. Their staff is very informative and easy to get along with. I felt comfortable the entire time and felt like progress was being made each and every appointment. Definitely would recommend Dr. Happeny as a PT.

Fantastic experience: I don't usually write reviews but felt I just had to for Michelle Tyndall and Healing Motion in Corvallis. Michelle is so awesome. My first thought was that she's so young(!) as I'm almost 60 yrs old but she made me feel like I was being listened to with the (multiple) issues I have struggled with. She is extremely knowledgeable and answered all of my questions without being condescending or making me feel like I'm crazy, which I SO appreciated. I tend to talk a lot lol when I'm nervous but she was so friendly and has a very caring personality. Even Natalie, her Assistant/Student was awesome and so friendly. The front desk was extremely welcoming and I'm so glad I found Healing Motion. They totally rock! :-)

Fantastic experience: Dane Happeney was my PT and he helped me so much with a neuropathy from a pinched nerve in my neck and a hip replacement that was never pain free. The exercises were clearly printed for me and revised as needed. He is a very knowledgeable therapist and also very personable. The Healing Motion website is full of suggestions and clarifications as well. I recommend Dane and Healing Motion to all my friends!

Fantastic experience: I worked with Dane for a few months after getting elbow surgery. Was super friendly, on top of it, and got me back to pitching and got me healthy again. There staff works really hard to get you in and was very flexible and I was very fortunate to have them. I highly recommend them especially for sport related injuries like mine!

Fantastic experience: A huge thank you to Dr. Emma Bowman for helping me recovery from my foot injury. I went to a couple of doctors who couldn't figure out what was wrong, so I decided to try PT and I'm so grateful I went to Healing Motion! Dr. Bowman made it clear that she didn't want to see me after 6 sessions :) and after my last appointment I was back to playing soccer again! The exercises that she had me do worked wonders and I have a detailed description of the program so that I can continue at home. Everyone there is so caring, helpful, and friendly and I looked forwarded to talking with Dr. Bowman each session! She truly cares about her patients!

Fantastic experience: What a great experience being treated at Healing Motion Physical Therapy! All the staff were polite and professional. I worked with Michelle Tyndall, she is excellent. I entered limping and with a lot of pain and left after some sessions being able to do all the things I enjoy again. She was so thorough; identifying what's wrong, how bad it is and immediately giving me the movements to help fix the problem. She communicates well, teaches you the exercises and sends you home with a printed or online version. It's reassuring to know we have this valuable local resource.

Fantastic experience: This is the place to go for Physical Therapy! It’s very inviting, and all staff are super pleasant right as you walk in the door! Dr. Happeny is so great and knowledgeable! He listened to my concerns and goals, explained everything in a way that was easy to comprehend. He had the start to a great treatment plan lined out before I walked out the door. I definitely recommend Healing Motion Physical Therapy for all your PT needs!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Michelle Tyndall is absolutely wonderful. She listened to all of my concerns and made sure to thoroughly address all of the issues I came in with. She created a great PT plan for me that gradually built upon itself so that I wasn't overwhelmed with exercises. She explained the issues I was having and the exercises in ways that were easy to understand and remember for later. She was respectful, kind, and fun to talk to. If I have another problem requiring PT in the future, this is where I'm going.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic experience here! I've been a patient for 6 months, following a traumatic Achilles tendon rupture. - Ann took my very first phone call to their office, and was amazing at getting me scheduled as quickly as possible after my repair surgery. One major thing that sets Healing Motion apart is that they partner you with one physical therapist for your entire recovery! Dr. Michelle Tyndall was so knowledgeable, professional, and kind. She helped me through so many moments of hesitation and fear after my injury - and we had some good laughs along the way too! She had so many tips and tricks to help me understand my exercises and keep me on track in a completely judgement-free environment. Their offices and gyms are clean, nicely organized, and stress-free. Their scheduling is arranged so that their spaces never felt over-crowded or noisy from other patients. Their team offers digital access to a wonderful app to view and record all of your exercises, if you choose. I'm a visual learner and being able to watch a video clip of the movement was so helpful! Scheduling and billing was also super easy! I am so thankful for my experience here and am almost sad to be done! Thank you again to Michelle and everyone at Healing Motion for an amazing experience and the best recovery!!

Fantastic experience: I had a few PT appointments with Healing Motion the last couple months of my pregnancy and then started up again a couple months postpartum. My first physical therapist ended up leaving and I was transferred to Dr. Cassie Ross to continue therapy. She helped as I recovered from my C-Section and then eased back into running again. Great experience all around. The staff are super friendly too. Would recommend this place to anyone needing physical therapy.

Fantastic experience: Helpful with insurance, organized and easy to work with scheduling appointments. After knee surgery my son saw amazing improvement thanks to their care. Decreased swelling, increased strength and mobility and he was able to return for part of his senior baseball season. They understand working with athletes and people who lead active lives. They got to know him and incorporated the knowledge of his goals and lifestyle into his program. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I’ve never had a PT who actually helped me the way Dr. Bowman at Healing Motion has. I have hyper mobility so PT was usually pretty painful but Dr. Bowman not only made the exercises achievable, she taught me how to be more conscience of how I move my body on a daily basis which no one has ever done for me before. Having an incredibly nice and fun PT is essential of course, but more than that it’s the whole staff and the center itself. The moment you walk in you feel good energy and you’re greeted immediately by happy people which just makes you feel so welcomed. I’m glad I’m healed and don’t have to continue going in but I’m going to miss that positive energy and feeling of belonging they give :)

Fantastic experience: Healing Motion PT has been my "go-to" place for several years because the personnel there have always listened to my concerns, been respective of my doctor's orders and help me recover and/or get stronger. They are always cheery and pretty much on time. The new digs are light, cheery, always clean and continually changing for the better. Thank you Dane for being persistent in helping me!

Fantastic experience: I can't recommend Dr. Emma Bowman at Healing Motion PT highly enough...they only gave me five stars instead of the 10 she deserves. The exercises she guided me to do were spot on for my hip and shoulder arthritis, which was limiting my activities. They worked to strengthen the muscles involved in a gentle enough manner that I could do them without pain. She was just wonderful to work with. My shoulder pain is completely gone, and my hip issues are much improved.

Fantastic experience: I am so thrilled to have sought care here. Emma Bowman is the PT I worked with and I can’t recommend her enough. Her explanations (whether I asked directly or she rightly sensed a knowledge gap) are always so helpful, elaborate, and clear. I went in with gnarly low back/SI joint problems (shooting pain in daily activities) and with the information and exercises she has taught me the pain has gone away and I’m now armed with tools for how to address any future flare ups. I love their philosophy that they want to heal themselves out of a job! I have learned so much about my body and I’m just so grateful to be living pain free again. Admittedly my issue was minor compared to others, but the level of care I received here makes me confident to recommend to others and I know who to call if I ever have any other issues. Thanks Healing Motion!

Fantastic experience: Excellent care. After years of other treatments for my shoulder pain, physical therapy was able to improve it significantly. I worked with Michelle Tyndall, she is wonderful! Kind, competent, and able to help you find the right posture and movement for healing.

Fantastic experience: Healing Motion was a great experience. I looked forward to going to my appointments. My PT Michelle Tyndal was lovely! She is genuine and committed to helping her clients heal from injury. I definitely recommend! 10/10.

Fantastic experience: Dane at Healing Motion PT is wonderful to work with! He is fun and personable and very knowledgeable. Dane helped me recover from surgery on my hip, and had the right combination of challenging me but making sure I was rehabbing at a pace that would get me to optimal strength and flexibility. Everyone in the office is very friendly. I would highly recommend Dane or any of the other PTs at Healing Motion. Patty J

Fantastic experience: I sought out Dr. Dane to help me recover from shoulder surgery. He is a great listener interested in understanding the nature of your injury and more importantly your goals for recovery. His depth of knowledge and his willingness to share it was exemplary. I also worked with Dr. Peter and found him to be equally focused. The staff was always friendly and super efficient. I would highly recommend Healing Motion PT. They deliver results!

Fantastic experience: Dane Happeny was able to help get my frozen shoulder back to working in a couple of months and now I am back to rock climbing regularly. I didn't know if I'd be able to get my range of motion back again but I went from not being able to get my arm up over my head to swinging around like a monkey on dynamic jumps! So grateful to Dane. He came highly recommend from my doctor and it was a bit of a wait to see him because he's so good. It was well worth it though to get on a weekly routine and get fixed up! Thanks so much!
