PTSMC provides physical therapy treatments that focus on musculoskeletal, orthopedic, and sports-related injuries. Our physical therapists create personalized plans for each patient, ensuring the fastest and safest path to recovery.
PTSMC clinicians provide their patients with personalized attention, thoroughly evaluating their needs and spending time with them from the beginning of treatment to the end. They emphasize educating patients about their injury, treatment, and recovery, and utilize a combination of manual care and advanced techniques and tools to provide the best possible care for each individual, tailored to their deficits, requirements, and goals.
Physical therapy is an excellent choice for anyone suffering from muscle or joint pain, regardless of age or ability. It can be used to treat sports injuries, back or neck pain, vertigo or balance problems, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) jaw pain and headaches, arthritis, knee pain, foot and ankle pain, pre and post-natal concerns, post-operative care, fitness needs, or any type of pain that prevents you from enjoying your day or sleeping at night.
In Connecticut, the "Direct Access" laws permit most people to go directly to a physical therapist without needing to get a doctor's referral. This eliminates the need to spend time and money on a doctor's appointment, and instead provides an opportunity to be seen by a specialist in musculoskeletal problems who can identify the cause of the pain and create a customized plan to get the person back to optimal health.

Fantastic experience: Staff there is friendly and knowledgeable. I would recommend this facility to anyone in need of Physical Therapy. They have many great therapists AND are able to accommodate the busiest of schedules. I have been there a couple times for different issues (back pain, hip tendinitis) therapy at this location has made a positive difference !!!

Fantastic experience: After two hip replacements and two rounds of physical therapy, I can honestly say the PTSMC in West Hartford played a big role in my recovery. The therapists are quite skilled, in particular, Stephany Rozsa, who worked with me on both occasions. I highly recommend this center for your recovery.
Dawn, at PTSMC we value our patients to the highest degree! We're so glad to hear that you had a positive experience with everyone at the West Hartford clinic, and we hope you continue to choose us as your physical therapists!
Fantastic experience: My P.T. Katie is knowledgeable and has helped a back problem that others couldn't. I would recommend her to family and friends.
Wonderful to hear, thank you so much Tom!
Fantastic experience: Very impressed! So much better than my last physio experience. Affordable, professional, and en pointe with exercise regime. It has only been a month and I've already had signifant improvement with increased mobility and lowered pain level for my excruciating shoulder injuries. I highly recommend the tender but strict ministrations of Katie, the lovely, kind therapist.
Hi Kerry - Wow, what a pleasure to read your review! We are so glad to hear about your improvement and thank you for sharing your experience. We will be sure to pass your kind words along to Katie!
Fantastic experience: My treatment has been through Tom and he is amazing!
David, we're so glad to hear you had a positive experience with our PT Tom! Thank you for taking the time to review us and for the 5 stars.
Fantastic experience: I've been undergoing physical therapy for several years (severe spinal stenosis, total hip replacement, etc.), with therapists ranging from disengaged and/or incompetent to outstanding. It's my good luck that I found PTSMC while searching for physical therapy and read the enthusiastic reviews of every physical therapist there. The comments about Stephany and Katie particularly caught my attention, so I asked to work with one of them. I'm happy to report that Stephany is great to work with and as expert a physical therapist as I've encountered. We are working on pain from my spinal stenosis as well as an extremely painful shoulder that I injured in a fall. Stephany's work with me as well as the exercises that she's assigned me are already helping quite noticeably. It's a welcome bonus that she's very pleasant and patient, even with an old man babbling in her ear. The facility itself is bright and clean and inviting.
Hi Harvey, we are thrilled you found us too and happy to hear you are having success by working with Stephany! Her and all the clinicians have a high-level of clinical expertise and truly care about our patients. We are so glad you received this level of connection and thank you for sharing your experience with us!
Fantastic experience: Professional work. Attentive care.
Serge, thank you for taking the time to review us and for the 5 stars!
Fantastic experience: I was referred to PTSMC in March for a running-related knee issue that had me sidelined for close to a year. After working with Spencer LeBel for only a few weeks, my knee was feeling better and I was up and running and training for a November marathon. A few other foot and leg issues cropped up throughout the course of my training and Spencer was able to quickly and effectively diagnose and treat the issues without having to alter my training program. Now a month out from my marathon, I'm feeling very confident in my ability to finish in my goal time, something I could not have said before I started PT. Thanks Spencer!
Fantastic experience: Attention all runners! I acquired a hip injury while training for my first marathon. I was nervous it was going to effect my training schedule and make my goals unobtainable. I was referred here by my pcp and I am so glad I listened. I had never done PT before so I had no idea what to expect. I was told by the very helpful front staff that I would be best paired with Spencer LeBel as he was their running specialist. He was very professional and set me up with a training regiment to both help strengthen my injury and reduce the interruption to my marathon training. I was honestly skeptical that such simple movements could help and also allow me to be ready for a 26.2 mile race. But now that I have officially finished PT, and I have accomplished every single running goal I had this year which includes finishing my first marathon at the pace I was training for, I feel I have the responsibility to tell other runners about this place and about Spencer. Any runners out there. Stop running injured. Pt will help you accomplish your goals. Spencer has been incredible.
Hi Daniel - Thank your for such a glowing review! We are thrilled to hear about your positive experience with Spencer and most importantly, that you accomplished your goal of finishing your first marathon. Congratulations!
Fantastic experience: Very professional staff. Katie is exceptional. This is my 2nd time receiving PT from Katie. I have been very lucky to have therapy guidance from Katie.
Thank you for the positive words. We are so glad to hear your sessions with Katie are going well, she is fantastic!
Fantastic experience: By far the BEST place P.T I've ever been to. The entire staff is AMAZING and truly caring individuals. Liz is AMAZING. I definitely recommend this location.
Hi Lulu - Thanks for sharing your experience. We think you are amazing too!
Fantastic experience: Can't say enough good things about Tom and his team. They truly care about their patient's successes and that's why I continue to refer clients to them!
Fantastic experience: EVERYONE at the facility is AWESOME! They all make you feel comfortable and welcome. My Therapist Tom is wonderful. He explains things and answers any questions I have and he does it in a way I can understand what he is talking about as opposed to using medical terminology I might not understand. Going to physical therapy is like going and hanging out with family (at least the ones you actually like to hang out with). I would recommend 1000 %!!
Fantastic experience: I was recommended to PTSMC West Hartford when I started having knee troubles. I have never been to physical therapy, so I wasn't sure how it would work out. After 3 consecutive weeks of going and working with Spencer, my knee has been feeling much better to where we are now going to every other week visits and pushing it a little more in the gym. Cannot recommend this location enough!
Fantastic experience: Best and most appropriate PT I've ever had. Katie is masterful.
Fantastic experience: This is, hands down, the best PT experience I have ever had. I went to Spencer LeBel just 8 weeks ago with an leg injury that has kept me from running for 9 months. Even going up stairs was painful. I cannot believe that I have progressed to the point that I can now run shorter distances pain free. I have no doubt I will be back to where I was very soon. He was so positive and encouraging. On my first day I felt better! That has a lot to do with his attitude....."you will be running again soon". The whole vibe of PTSMC is really outstanding. They know your name after one visit! And most importantly, this is one on one care, not someone working with 3 other people at the same time. I will need to ask Spencer for lots of business cards to pass out to anyone who needs a good Physical Therapist.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review, Lynn! Spencer is an expert at running injuries. We're so glad to hear that you are back to running, and we wish you the best on the rest of your recovery. We're sure you will be back to where you were soon! We pride ourselves on our patient-centric care and making sure that patients hit their goals and feel comfortable while doing so!
Fantastic experience: I chose PTSM because Stephanie Rozsa is there. She previously treated me for other issues when with another practice. Was happy to find her. She and all of the PTs are great, are the front desk staff. They schedule appropriately so your get the attention of your PT. Good facility with appropriate equipment.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic center for physical therapy after my PRP injections. Katie was amazing and followed me through each exercise to help me improve my fitness recovery. Everyone there was willing to help each other out too, quite a team here.
Fantastic experience: I'm honestly very impressed with the staff at Physical Therapy & Sporty Medicine Centers of West Hartford. I have worked with several of the staff over the last few weeks and they all seem very knowledgeable, competent and concerned about me as a client and my recovery
Lillian, thank you so much for your review! We're glad that you are feeling better and that you enjoy your experience.
Fantastic experience: Had some acute swelling on and off over the Summer and Fall from strenuous activity and overuse. Doctors recommended physical therapy. For several weeks now I've had the good fortune of working with Stephany Rosza, a therapist with PTSMC West Hartford. Stephany's dedication and professionalism has really helped to improve the strength and mobility in my feet, ankles and knees. I've found all the staff at this location to be very friendly, competent and professional. I would highly recommend!
Joseph - thank you for your review! We're glad to hear that you've enjoyed your experience with Stephany and the PTSMC and that you're improving.
Fantastic experience: Experienced an acute back injury from lifting something too heavy. Came to PTSMC West Hartford and saw Katie. She is amazing! She completed a thorough evaluation and my back started to feel better on that very first visit. It's only been a few visits and I'm already walking around, doing my usual activities pain free! Thanks Katie and everyone at PTSMC for their help.
Fantastic experience: A very good place for PT. Instructors are not only well-trained pros, but kind and compassionate team players.
Thanks Roger, we pride ourselves on both our high level of clinical treatment and developing a team that truly cares about our patients' wellbeing. We're happy to hear to received both!
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Spencer LeBel to anyone looking to come back from a running or sports-related injury. I have seen a drastic improvement in my recovery in the past month since I have started worked with him, and am confident that with his assistance I will be back to my old self in no time.
Hi Michelle - thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review about your experience with Spencer. Congrats on your improvement, we're happy to be able to help!
Fantastic experience: I have been coming here for various injuries over the past three years and have undergone successful treatment for each. They tailor treatment to your activity of choice and, importantly, take the time to explain the mechanics of each exercise and why it will help you physiologically. I have left each session feeling confident that I am one step closer to pre-injury health. Overall, the warmth and expertise exhibited from the staff and service providers are second to none and I actively recommend their services.
Thanks so much David -- making sure patients feel confident they are on the right path to recovery is such an important part of PT. No one wants to experience multiple injuries that need rehab, but we're happy to hear our team has been able to help along the way!
Positive experience: The therapists and staff operate as a cohesive team. Therapists are knowledgeable and readily explain details about the course of therapy.
Thank you Jim!
Fantastic experience: I have been receiving post operative treatment twice a week for 11 weeks now for a torn bicep and Rotator Cuff. Treatment has been very effective and my recovery has been a bit faster than normal. My surgeon was also impressed with the rate of recovery. The staff is very professional and knowledgeable. The facility is kept very clean and well equipped. Everyone is very friendly. I would recommend without hesitation.
Hi Stephen - thanks for taking the time to leave this review, and congratulations on your recovery!
Fantastic experience: Amazing crew of therapists and staff. I had Vlad as a PT; he was very knowledgeable and helped me get back to hitting some absolutely colossal squat numbers in the gym. Overall 10/10 experience, I wouldn't want to get physical therapy from anywhere else!
Thanks Jake - we will make sure Vlad sees this!
Fantastic experience: Vladimir has been a great help to my husband. My husband enjoys his sessions very much and is feeling better with each visit. Thank you to Vladimir and the staff.
Thanks Marcia, we're glad Vlad and our team have been able to help!
Fantastic experience: I’ve never received the level of personalized care anywhere other than PTSMC WeHa. Everyone, from Amy and Heather, to the Physical Therapists and Aides are all focused on patient care and outcomes. Liz is an incredibly thorough and knowledgeable clinician. She addressed all my concerns and answered my questions so I understood everything that was going on which is truly invaluable. I am looking forward to coming back!
Thanks so much Mary Kate for your thoughtful review! We are proud of the level of care our patients receive and happy to hear about your experience with Liz and our team!
Fantastic experience: Katie and Vlad were amazing! I had a knee issue related to trail running which they discovered was actually a hip strength issue. They took me from pain when walking 2 miles to finishing my 50 mile trail run with flying colors! They also helped my strength/coordination so much I’m not easily able to do skills I couldn’t do with my “bad” side before, like clipping into my bicycle for rides. Thanks, Katie and Vlad!!!
Thanks Allison, and congrats on your 50-miler. What an accomplishment! We are happy to have been able to help.
Fantastic experience: Great experience with the PT team at PTSMC !!
Fantastic experience: Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. I felt comfortable immediately and my therapist clearly knows her stuff. She communicates her techniques and goals clearly and takes her time to make sure I understand what she’s trying to do and how she intends to get there.
Thanks Keith, glad to hear our team in WH has been able to help get you on the path to recovery!
Fantastic experience: Made an appointment on a referral, excellent professional staff from top to bottom. Great care and knowledge from PTs. Will miss them when I am done.
Thanks Sharon - hopefully you won't need us again for a while, but we will be here for you!
Fantastic experience: Tom and Miguel and the staff at PTSMC West Hartford are knowledgeable and dedicated to their patients, going the extra mile to find the source of your pain and empower you to help yourself thru lifestyle changes and home exercise.

Fantastic experience: Friendly doesn't begin to describe the folks at this place. They are super nice, efficient, professional, thorough ... all summed up, a great experience for anyone who is looking to relieve the aches and pains of injury or chronic conditions.
Thanks Katie - glad to hear you not only received great care, but had a positive overall experience!
Fantastic experience: Excellent facility and top notch staff, I recently started PT with Vladimir and the experience has been great so far. He is very knowledgeable and competent. The care and empathy he has for his patients is evident. I’ve had some past physical therapy experiences that don’t even come close to this place; where I felt like just a number and quite rushed in the past. I’ve had a great experience from the office staff who answer the phone to the physical therapist Vladimir. I am so glad that I am getting excellent care & I would recommend this place to anyone.
Fantastic experience: I love showing up for my appointments. From the moment I walk in the door I am always greeted with a smile. Miguel has done wonders for my neck pain and shoulder pain which I have dealt with for years. Not only have I received relief from chronic discomfort but I have gained strength and been given a number of exercises and stretches which I can use daily to keep tension and pain at bay. I trust Tom and his team and was beyond happy to recommend them to my father for PT after a hip replacement. True professionals at the top of their game!

Fantastic experience: I am pleased to write about my therapists. First. I give credit to the office representative Who is a pleasant, professional young Lady named Amy. Second. I need to express honestly how I felt and still feel about my treatments from day one with my Therapist Tom. I have been to other therapists but never seen an individual like Tom Who is 100% professional, caring and Very knowledgeable of his work and most important the passion he has in what he does, Tom really cares for his Patients, he takes the time to explain everything about the treatments and answer any questions you have.

Fantastic experience: One of the best physical therapists I’ve worked with hands down. as someone who works in the healthcare field, my standards are super high and often not easy to meet, but Tom exceeds my expectations every time.
Thanks for your review Sarah, glad Tom and our team in WH were able to exceed expectations!
Fantastic experience: I wouldn’t want my care in anyone else’s hands. Amy has gone above and beyond for me at the front desk, helping me understand the insurance side of my process. Tom is a one of a kind physical therapist and I will definitely be recommending him to any and all of my friends, family, and co-workers.
Thank you Rachel, your review and recommendations are very much appreciated!
Fantastic experience: Tom Kassan was amazing!!! I came to him with a knee injury from running and after two weeks I was back on the road feeling great!!!
Fantastic experience: I have worked with Tom Kassan and his team and they are excellent! Very knowledgeable and experts in increasing flexibility. Very clean facility.
Fantastic experience: Tom is extremely knowledgeable, personable and a wonderful physical therapist. He spent time to understand my condition and to develop a treatment plan to ensure I obtained optimal results. I’m back on my feet and can’t thank him enough. He’s just fabulous!
