Formation Physical Therapy + Performance - Richmond

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing PT & Staff! I highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I am so grateful that I found Dr. Allsion! She took the time to understand what I needed and develop attainable goals. We were able to measure my progress from the first to the last visit and the results reflected how much stronger I felt after working with her! She is also just an incredibly kind person all around. 10/10 Best PT experience I've ever had!

Experiencia fantástica: I can't recommend Allison enough! I struggled with knee pain for about two years, which kept me from running and left me feeling stuck and deflated. Every time I tried to get back into it on my own, I’d have to stop after a few weeks because the pain would flare up again. Since starting PT with Allison, I’m running regularly again, and for the first time in years, the hardest part of my runs is catching my breath and not knee pain! I hadn’t even realized how much my knee pain was constantly weighing on me until it was gone. Now, walking around and going downstairs without discomfort feels like a huge sigh of relief. Allison is incredibly knowledgeable and data-driven. From the start, she gave me a clear picture of which muscles needed strengthening and stretching to support my knee. It’s been fascinating to learn how different muscles are interconnected, and her willingness to explain why each exercise matters keeps me motivated to stick with them. Her app makes it easy to track my PT exercises, and she regularly re-tests my strength and mobility to make adjustments as needed. Beyond helping me rehab my knee, she’s also helped me integrate strength training with running so my workouts complement each other. She listens to my priorities and adapts each session to what I need most. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, supportive, and results-driven PT, Allison is amazing!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Allison at Formation Physical Therapy in Carytown offers meticulously organized and individualized physical therapy services out of her private clinic. She is thoughtful, inquisitive, and seeks to understand your body on a deep level in order to provide the best service possible. She will have you feeling like a new person!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a wonderful experience working with Dr. Allison! I've lived with chronic shoulder pain for almost a decade. I thought I would always have it. I've seen many physical therapists over the years, but Dr. Allison was the only one who truly helped! After a full assessment of the problem, we developed a plan to reduce pain, increase mobility, and strengthen the area. With Dr. Allison's support and availability (I could always reach out with questions in between sessions), I felt motivated to stay consistent with the exercises. Moreover, I've never felt fully comfortable in gyms and athletic spaces, but with Dr. Allison's guidance, I've gained the confidence to take up space and lift weights at my local gym! After working with Dr. Allison, not only has the daily pain I used to live with subsided, but I feel so much stronger and able to continue the exercises on my own moving forward. If you need a PT, I highly recommend reaching out to Dr. Allison!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Allison Beale is the best. I've had chronic pain for many years from injury and chronic illness and had been seeking relief since 2017. I've seen other physical therapists over the years and chiropractors, ultimately spending a lot of time and money trying to get better. Within a few months of working with Dr. Allison I have been getting the results I always hoped I could get and my pain level has become so much more manageable. Dr. Allison is kind, funny, and really knows her stuff. She's really worth every penny. You'll leave your sessions feeling more empowered and refreshed because it's truly a joy to have sessions with her. I've also learned a lot about my own body in the process and feel like I have a good, solid foundation for pain management moving forward. The best!

Experiencia fantástica: Allison is so thorough and knowledgeable! She has cool technology to make progress quantifiable. In addition to seeing my increase in strength, I could definitively tell there was a decrease in pain. Allison gives one on one attention and was amazing at helping me achieve my goal of getting back to my workouts without pain. Her new location in Carytown is sunny and a lovely place to work!

Experiencia fantástica: I really enjoyed working with Dr. Allison! She helped me achieve all of my physical therapy goals and was very accommodating with scheduling. Before working with her, I was spending a bunch of money buying insoles, knee braces, massages, etc. and none of it really resolved my issues. When I started playing rugby and kickball regularly, I noticed I was always extremely stiff and achy after practice, my chronic knee pain was flaring, and I always had shin splints while running at practice and during games. When working with Dr. Allison, she taught me how to address all those issues head on and gave me a routine to help with the pain and strengthen my body. After spraining my ankle playing rugby, she integrated my injury recovery plan with my other goals, and has helped me make a full recovery. With Dr. Allison’s help I am now stronger and faster than ever, I’m so glad to have worked with her!

Experiencia fantástica: If I could give Formation 20 stars, I would in a heartbeat. I'm so happy to say that my sciatica is virtually gone. I've dealt with that problem for about 12 years, and with the help of Dr. Beale, it dissipated in a matter of weeks. The custom exercise plans are the key to success. You have hour-long appointments where you are the ONLY ONE in the room getting individualized attention. MUCH different than a normal PT's model where they leave you unattended and you hope you're doing your exercises right. Not only is Dr. Beale a great PT; she's also caring and a great listener. You'll have fun with her and see results, I promise!

Experiencia fantástica: Allison is FANTASTIC! My back hurt after a gym injury. She guided me through a few stretches and poses- I’m no newbie to an injury yet I still benefited greatly! Thanks again!!!

Experiencia fantástica: When I started seeing Dr. Allison Beale, I had been struggling with sciatica and hip pain for months. I had seen a chiropractor, an acupuncturist, and another physical therapist, but none of these offered lasting relief. I was frustrated and ready to give up, thinking I'd never be able to work out or even just exist without pain again. Within a few weeks, Dr. Allison had me doing strength training specifically targeted to help with my injuries. I was able to take walks again and go to the gym. She created a custom workout plan for me that she adjusted as my symptoms and needs changed. After a few months, I was getting stronger and my symptoms improved drastically. I am so grateful to Dr. Allison for her support and expertise. She is knowledgeable, professional, honest, and warm. Working with her has been a pleasure. If you're in the Richmond area and looking for a physical therapist, contact Dr. Allison asap. I cannot recommend her enough!

Experiencia fantástica: Doc Allison is fantastic. I came to see her for lower back and knee pain so bad I could barely do anything besides lie down. Seven sessions later I am this close to feeling 100%. Quite literally life-changing. She is kind, hilarious, warm, and, most importantly, brilliant at the science of PT. If you are looking for both excellent “bedside manner” and exercises that will dramatically decrease your pain and improve mobility, go see her immediately. I cannot say enough good things about Allison; she treats the whole person and finds the root cause. And Tater, her adorable dog, is the X-factor (he attends appts for those who enjoy dogs). Come for the expertise, stay for the quality of care and the pupper! Literally owe this woman my mental and physical health and can’t thank her enough. ❤️

Experiencia fantástica: Just finished my last session with Dr Allison to help with my chronic back pain. Dr Allison was attentive, personable, and caring during our sessions, and her personalized PT plans were well thought out to target my exact needs. After working with her, I no longer wake up from back pain or have it interfering with my daily life. Couldn't recommend Dr Allison more! She'll listen and dive deep into all your needs and concerns while ensuring you feel safe and educated on the what's and why's of your PT plan!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Allison has helped my recovery and return to activity tremendously. She approaches our sessions together as a committed collaborator in my path to recovery; her investment in catered and customized processes for her clients is deeply evident. As I start to see positive results within the first few sessions, I look forward to continue working with Dr. Allison into the future, knowing I’m in good hands. Five stars.

Experiencia fantástica: Allison is a fantastic Physical Therapist! I am a former college athlete and felt like I had a strong tool box of exercises to help reduce my pain but found myself at a road block unable to get better. Allison broke down exercises to a point that was accessible to my level of movement and explained that the ones I may know are geared more towards folks that are not experiencing the level of pain and limited mobility I was experiencing. I appreciate her clear explanations of everything from exercises to daily habits. At our first appointment she gave me an exercise and treatment that immediately gave me relief, something I wasn't expecting to find until later! I highly recommend seeing Allison if your someone with a sports background that is looking for someone fun, engaging, clear, and motivating!

Experiencia fantástica: Allison at Formation PT is nothing short of a miracle worker. She instantly identified the root cause of a many-years-long knee problem and put me on a steady path to recovery. After just a few sessions, I was seeing measurable improvement. Feeling good about the future of my knees for the first time in a long time.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent physical therapy experience. Highly recommended.

Experiencia fantástica: I saw Dr. Allison for 3 months (12 sessions) after I majorly herniated a disc in my lower back in 2023. Before I found Dr. Allison & Formation PT, I spent 6 months suffering terribly, and got 2 unsuccessful pain med injections into my spine. The constant pain was becoming unbearable. I couldn’t sleep in any normal position, couldn’t drive anymore, lost my personality, and often had to use a walker. Before this injury I was a 38-yr old who could run 10k races and I loved group fitness classes. Now I was considering back surgery, and I’d tried to start physical therapy with two other places unsuccessfully. Within just 2 weeks of working with Dr. Allison I was vastly improved. By just the 5th or 6th visit my sleep was 10 times better. No surgery. She has so much expertise, she listens carefully, and she is assertive but careful with your PT and pushing you the right amount. She also uses a great app to send you weekly exercises & keep you on track. I did go out of network & sent my insurance the bills to partially reimburse - this was SO worth it. If you’ve been suffering and in pain, please meet with her.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Allison is awesome! During my time with her she made me feel safe and she truly listened to my concerns about my knees. I was struggling to feel relief and dealing with aching pain. After 8 sessions with Dr. Allison I can gladly say my knee pain has greatly diminished. I feel empowered by the information she has given me to move forward to continue to be pain free!! I highly recommend Dr. Allison for your PT needs. She is a gem!

Experiencia fantástica: I cannot recommend Allison any higher! I had been dealing with the worst hamstring pain from an injury I got when I was 17 running track. It was so bad I couldn't try to touch my toes without pain. Allison's plan puts the power back in your hands and she is a great guide for returning functionality. She was great to work with!

Experiencia fantástica: I came to Dr. Allison feeling restricted in my body due to injuries and daily pain. She created a personal plan just for me, helping make routines accessable to my needs and body's ability. She focused on every issue I brought to her, even when they were new and she had already planned a full schedule for us. She would adjust on the fly to make sure my body needs were adressed. After working with her, I do not have daily pain. More importantly, I feel much more comfortable in my body. She didn't just focus on my injury areas, she worked with my whole body and now I'm stronger for it. I feel like I can accomplish more things with my body and I'm more connected with it. Now, I'm ready to take further steps to improve my health and fitness in a way I wouldn't of thought possible before working with her.

Experiencia fantástica: Allison was so great! She was able to help me with neck and shoulder pain that I was dealing with for years. She was able to provide a tailored exercise regimen that worked for me. I can't recommend her enough if you are dealing with any kind of "body work" issue. Such a joy to work with!

Experiencia fantástica: I have had one assessment session and one physical therapy session and Dr. Allison is so friendly and knowledgeable and curious, which I appreciate because she uses that curiosity to help diagnose and treat her clients like me.

Experiencia fantástica: When I came to Allison at Formation, I was in the process of training for a pretty demanding hike through the jungles of South America. I had started to experience pain in my hip when running and I was worried the pain would get worse. When I first met with her, she did a complete workup of my movement (which was really cool) and by the end of the session she had a couple of theories as to what the problem might be. She said she thought we could resolve it in about 4 sessions. I was EXTREMELY skeptical that we could get it done in that short amount of time because I had seen other PTs for the same issue before and wasn't able to resolve it even after 10 or more sessions. But, I took her at her word and followed her instructions. We met every week for 4 weeks and by the last session my pain was gone! I still can't believe it. I had no trouble with my hip at all during my jungle trek. It's been 6 weeks or so since my last session and the pain is still gone. Allison is a miracle worker.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Allison changed my life for the better. Years of lower back problems led me to completely avoid any weight training that involved the lower back (deadlift, squat...all the best stuff). Allison found the issue, set a treatment plan, and basically cured me within two month. By the end of our time, I was deadlifting 20% beyond my previous max. She's passionate, energetic, and supportive. I couldn't recommend her any more highly.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Allison is the best!!!! Her approach is 100% custom tailored to your needs and she spends every minute of your appointment working directly with you. She has helped to eliminate my knee and shoulder pain - but most importantly, I have learned how to check my form during exercises to prevent relapse and she’s given great exercises for me to do at home so I can continue to be pain free.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Beale was extremely thorough helping me with two injuries and ruling out root causes. It's great to be able to continue exercising while also making needed repair. I highly recommend her for your PT and performance needs!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Allison Beale was wonderful to work with. I came in with a lower back injury due to deadlifting badly and could not sit or bend over without experiencing pain. After working with her for two months, I am finally able to deadlift from the ground again. I haven't had any experiences with more traditional PT, but I definitely like the personal and tailored experience that you get with Dr. Beale. She made sure to understand the state that I wanted to get back to, and we were able to make great progress towards it. The app that she uses to give PT homework is really useful as well. Glad to have been able to work with her!

Experiencia fantástica: I saw Dr. Beale for years long chronic back pain from childhood spinal fusion and new shoulder/neck pain. I've tried multiple different avenues of pain relief and different physical therapists and Dr. Beale is the first professional who's made me feel confident that I have the tools to manage my bad days. I went from literally not being able to sit or stand without pain to being able to do that and more. She's also rad and funny and the gym location she's in has immaculate vibes. Honestly I was kinda sad when I graduated from physical therapy with her!

Experiencia fantástica: came to Dr. Beale early 2022 because i lost the ability to squat and had significant knee pain pretty much every day. she diagnosed my problem in a much more specific way than a previous physical therapist had been able to, and gave me the most bespoke treatment plan of soft tissue work, exercises and stretches that immediately made a difference. Nov 2022 i am now able to fully squat again!!!! 1000/5 stars she will change your life for the better

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Allison is the real deal! I’ve worked with her for foot pain issues as well as for a back injury- and she knows her stuff! I have been back pain free since working with Allison- which is the first time I’ve been able to say this since having kids! If you want a PT who will customize a plan that you can actually follow- I highly recommend Allison. She’s the best you’ll find :)

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend Allison at Formation Physical Therapy! She is truly amazing at was she does, she is knowledgeable, passionate, caring and extremely supportive. She did an amazing job personalizing my treatment plan so that I can not only heal but thrive in my personal and work life after an injury impacted both. I had been dealing with frequent back injuries for years, with chronic pain. I have not only been pain free after working with Allison, but I feel stronger, more confidant, and safer in my body. I truly can not say enough about her! If you want want to get better and pain free Allison at formation PT is your person (plus the gym she practices is really funky and unique with a great environment!)

Experiencia fantástica: Appreciate the time Alison took with me. I started with pretty intense pain and felt limited in movement. She pinpointed areas that needed attention, felt relief and gave me a game plan moving forward. I whole heartedly recommend her not only for her expertise but because she clearly is a great listener and I felt heard during the entire time under her care. 10/10 great experience.

Experiencia fantástica: If you are a lifter of any kind or ability, I highly recommend Dr Allison. She has gotten my shoulder back after a rotator cuff injury!

Experiencia fantástica: Before seeing Dr. Allison, I was struggling with significant upper back and neck discomfort and pain. She quickly realized what I needed to work on. At times her ability to pin point my issues and make small adjustments in my movement seemed almost magical. She taught me great stretches and exercises to work on, that had kept the pain away months later. I can’t recommend Dr. Allison enough.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been working with Dr. Allison for several weeks and was unsure (and a little skeptical) about the process at first. I can honestly say that deciding to work with her has been the best decision I could have made! She’s knowledgeable, thorough, kind (yet firm!) and an absolute pro at what she does. I highly recommend her and Formation to anyone because my back has gone from me being in constant pain to very rare twinges of pain-and we’re not even finished with our sessions! And the progress that we’ve made continues to improve pretty much daily. It’s Amazing!

Experiencia fantástica: I came to see Dr Beal walking with a walker. She is very thorough, kind, compassionate and understanding. I felt confidence in her abiity to help me. Upon completion of my physical therapy sessions, I was able to walk without any assistance devices. She conducted a pre-and post assessment and I was updated on y progress at each session. She is very knowledgeable and I would have her as my phyical therapist anytime if needed again.

Experiencia fantástica: I am so, so happy I came to see Allison at Formation! I had been struggling with chronic pain with certain exercises (Olympic lifts) and had just accepted it as normal, but after a short course of treatment I am lifting pain free! Allison was very thorough in her assessment and treatment plan, and was knowledgeable in my specific sport. She has fostered a safe and inclusive environment for everyone. I always felt at ease and comfortable while there, which is a stark difference from more traditional PT services which feel like a trip to a doctor's office. I felt that my needs and concerns were heard and addressed, and I left with a long term plan to keep myself pain free, and a provider-client relationship that has lasted past my course of treatment. I cannot recommend Formation PT+Performance enough!!

Experiencia fantástica: I didn't hesitate to reach out to Dr. Allison after my MD suggested it. As a 48 year-old pro natural bodybuilder, I needed to heal my shoulder from all of the push-ups I did during the initial COVID shutdown. I wasn't having any success with the "just allow time and rest" method, so it was time for her next-level help. Dr. Allison showed me how I needed to work some of my ignored muscle fibers (& with very small weights, who knew?!). I'm so pleased that my shoulder did heal with her help in ~4 months. If you are hinging on healing yourself vs seeking her assistance, do not hesitate! Delaying the *right* help (Dr. Allison!) can delay or even prevent recovery. Invest in yourself, and you'll be so thankful that you did!

Experiencia fantástica: Alison is fantastic! I went to her with neck and shoulder issues and we got to work on improving my mobility and strengthening up weak areas. For years I have had pain in this area and now I know what to do about it. Don't be in pain. Get yourself to Formation!

Experiencia fantástica: After several months of pain, discomfort, and frustration with pain in my hip and glute I enlisted Dr. Allison to help me get back in track with my powerlifting. After seeing her for several sessions I saw a drastic increase in mobility and decrease in pain. She works with you to understand your goals and gives you practical exercises that you can work into daily life and warm-ups. My favorite part is that she didn't try to tell me that I should stop weightlifting and reinforced that I knew what was best for myself, and worked along side my training. Fast forward 3 months later and her work directly correlated to me placing 2nd in my first meet, with confidence that my body was up to the task.

Experiencia fantástica: I hadn't been able to control my touches and pauses on bench presses, but a 10 minute mini session at my powerlifting meet, and I was in full control of all three attempts. She killed it. Definitely highly recommend. She's great!

Experiencia fantástica: Alison was wonderful! She was on time, kept to the appointment time frame, was thorough, professional and kind. She worked quickly but took care and time to explain her thought process. By the end of the session she was able to provide various stretches and exercises to do to alleviate my pain. Would highly recommend! Don't wait to get in touch she is wonderful and it's worth the time and expense.

Experiencia fantástica: Allison’s expertise as a Doctor of Physical Therapy was extremely helpful to me following my husband’s open heart surgery. To prepare for his discharge home, I wanted to be sure that I had appropriate equipment and positioning devices to assist with his recovery. She recommended specific items and exercises that would support his efforts to resume his activities of daily living when he got home. Allison is a very knowledgeable, kind, and compassionate clinician who works hard to help her clients meet their goals. How fortunate we are to have her as part of our healthcare community.

Experiencia fantástica: I have had a number of PT assessments and this one was by far the most thorough one conducted. We have a good plan moving forward and I'm excited to moving - literally!

Experiencia fantástica: Highly recommend Formation PT. I visited after my knee pain kept me from running. Dr. Allison worked with me to locate the cause of my pain and get it to the point where I can now run a couple of miles pain free.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Allison is absolutely fantastic. You can tell that she truly cares about her clients and does everything she can to tailor the appointments to your needs. I have been to a lot of physical therapists and none of them have been as creative and thoughtful when it comes to creating a program to help me reach my goals.

Experiencia fantástica: My experience with Dr. Alison has been amazing. I can already feel the difference in my mobility after working with her a couple times and doing some at home exercises. I worked with a physical therapist previously that told me I wouldn’t progress any further and never return to 100% after my spinal fusion. Dr. Alison doesn’t believe this is the case and I know that if I keep working with her I can get back to 100%

Experiencia fantástica: Allison is the best physical therapist I have ever had. The progress I’ve made since being with her is remarkable. She really cares and her knowledge of the body is amazing. I feel stronger physically and mentally because of our sessions. Please contact Formation asap!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Trust Dr. Allison, her process works! After months of elbow pain, she helped me find relief without having to sacrifice any of my favorite activities. She even let me show her my hobbies so she could have better insight into how I use body. Throughout working with Dr. Allison, I felt she truly listened to my concerns and needs. All the therapy programming she provided for me was customized and adjusted as necessary. She also made sure we had fun during our in person sessions. When I asked her what I could do to help prevent irritation of a decade old shoulder injury, she made me a warm up routine to use before upper body workouts. Since doing this regularly, I haven’t noticed aaany of the old aches coming back to haunt me. Thank you for getting me on the journey to pain free pull-ups again! I ABSOLUTELY recommend Formation PT.

Experiencia fantástica: Nothing worse than Pain rearing it’s ugly head and getting in the way of you destroying your goals. After a visit to @formationphysicaltherapy Dr Alison Beale has set me on the path to recovery equipped with more knowledge and plenty of practical exercises to help me get back on track. I wasn’t sure what to expect walking through the door but I can say that if you want to treated like a genuine individual free from any of the usual BS she is your go to for care.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Allison was welcoming and extremely approachable from the moment we met! I’ve been suffering from tightness and discomfort in my left lat for quite some time and conveyed this to Dr. Allison. I was immediately met with knowledgeable information and given a thorough fitness recovery session that left my lat feeling the best it’s felt in months! I was able to leave our session and go workout pain free! I highly recommend Formation to any athlete or general gym goer who is in pain when working out! 5/5 from me!

Experiencia fantástica: ‘Had my first PT appointment today with Dr. Allison Beale @ Formation Physical Therapy. I have been training to run a 10k and have started having pain in my knee. She listened to my concerns, did a thorough assessment of my movement and mobility, and provided thoughtful guidance to get me back to going up stairs, and running, without pain. I truly appreciated the time she spent reviewing my specifics and am eager to work through my plan. Many thanks to Dr. Beale! Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I went to Allison for a nagging elbow injury as I didn’t want to consult with an orthopedic doc quite yet. Not only was the vibe welcoming and just down right cool, Allison made me feel super comfortable and validated with my injury. The thing about Allison is she doesn’t just diagnose, treat, and get to the next patient like most PTs I’ve experienced. She took the time to explain why I was in pain, showed me the muscles and tendons that were affected, and did a complete body assessment to really understand how my joints, posture, etc were all affecting my health. She didn’t rush anything and was genuinely interested in tearing my injury. Allison gave me the BEST massage of the muscles and some great exercises to do at home. She also gave me some at-home assignments via her website that were super easy to access and use. I really felt like she cared about my injury and progress, as she still checks in with me about my injury. She’s the best, go see her!!

I ABSOLUTELY recommend Formation PT.

Experiencia fantástica: I was looking for a physical therapist who had a high level of expertise and also a true interest in their patient’s healing. Dr. Allison Beale is all of that and more. She really listens to not only your physical challenges but also all the aspects of your lifestyle that can be challenging during recovery. She develops treatment plans that are smart and innovative with exceptional follow up and modifications when needed. My recovery from frozen shoulder was exceptionally shorter and easier than predicted. I am confident that I would not have had that experience without her guidance.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Allison is everything you would want in a physical therapist. She is welcoming, kind, knowledgeable, and a fantastic listener. Her thorough understanding of the human body and keen eye for movement allow her to design exercise and treatment plans to efficiently get people back to what they love doing. And she’s a fantastic coach to boot! If you’re living with pain or wanting to take your performance goals to the next level, I couldn’t recommend anyone more than Dr. Allison.

Experiencia fantástica: I have known Dr. Allison Beale since PT school. Allison is a very compassionate individual that wants what is best for every person she cares for. She believes in practicing and providing her clients with the most recent evidence-based treatments to help them achieve their goals. I think it's important to find a provider that wants what is best for you and someone that is going to go above & beyond to fulfill your needs. You will find that with Dr. Allison. Formation PT + Performance will help you reach your highest potential because they care about you & don't treat you like a number as they would in any regular, traditional PT clinic. Invest in yourself and invest in a doctor of PT like Dr. Allison Beale!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Allison was fantastic to work with. She was friendly, compassionate, and knowledgeable. I went to her for help with mystery knee pain that was affecting my daily life & exercise routines. She helped me figure out what the root cause was and worked to strengthen those areas. With her help and guidance I reached my goal of being able to jog again! I would highly recommend Formation Physical Therapy + Performance to anyone dealing with injuries or physical limitations.

Experiencia fantástica: I can't say enough good things about my experience with Allison. I had a life changing knee injury, and after having to be in a locked out brace for 6 weeks, I didn't know what to expect. Allison met me with the biggest smile, and her confidence and cheerful nature made me feel comfortable from our first meeting. She listened to how I felt and was very thorough in her evaluation. In our 12 weeks of therapy together, she helped me to gain the confidence to do the things I needed to get back to a normal life. She pushed me in times when I needed it and watched intently to make sure I was doing everything properly. I had to re-learn how to walk properly, squat properly, and jump again. She was amazing at adapting to my skills and then giving me more skills to utilize for success. Thank you, Allison, for helping me get my life back. Update( 3 years after injury).....Allison was one of the only people who vocalized that I could get back to pre-injury strength. Most others agreed I wouldn't lift that heavy again, including myself. Today, I lifted 500 lbs again. I am so grateful to God who gives me daily strength and for good people like Allison who want to see the best for their clients.

Experiencia fantástica: On July 1, 2021 I had a total knee replacement. 5 days later I had physical therapy. I had three previous knee surgeries and had physical therapy after each one and hated it each time. I was dreading having to do it again! On the 1st day I went with the attitude that I would hate it. The physical therapist changed my attitude immediately. She introduced herself as, “Hi, I’m Dr. Allison Beale but you can just call me Allison!” I was hooked! From that point on I looked forward to my appointments! Allison was able to assess my abilities, both mentally and physically. She was always encouraging, serious when necessary and a lot of fun! The first day of PT she set me up on the stationary bike and I was very skeptical due to past experiences. Allison told me to give it a try and see what I could do. Amazingly I slowly made the 1st revolution. I was so excited that I went to forwards and backwards and was ready to move on to the next challenge. Allison would explain each step, see how much I could bend my leg, how much could I do on a leg lift, could I put any weight on my leg. The results of everything Allison had me do were exciting. My competitive spirit kicked in and Allison would rein me in when needed. There were some things that she would tell I was in control of how much I could do. There were a few times that I’m sure she caught me rolling my eyes! There were a few times that I wanted to quit but I knew I had to keep going if I wanted to do the things I can do today! If asked how I would rate my experience with Allison I would give her 5 stars! Anyone would be so fortunate to work with Allison!

Experiencia fantástica: I saw Dr. Beale 4 weeks post shoulder surgery. I was focused on getting back to playing golf. She worked with me and even had me bring a club in for the last couple of weeks to make sure I had the strength and range of motion to get back on the course. I was super impressed at how my goal became her goal and we worked together to get me back to playing pain free!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Allison Beale is awesome! I went in and she quickly and accurately diagnosed the core of the issue and we went to work fixing it. I learned some great, simple exercises that not only helped make things better during my time going to therapy but also that I have used since then to stem flare-ups. She’s a great practitioner and a great person who is fun to talk to and work with. Which makes going to PT a lot less of a chore. I highly recommend her.
