Movement Restoration Physical Therapy

Experiencia fantástica: The best thing about this that I loved was that Eric designed a program for me that was totally designed for my particular needs and not a generic one that would be in general for anyone. I feel that this style of treatment was very important for my quick recovery.

Experiencia fantástica: I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Eric! I came to him with persistent knee pain that had been affecting my daily life and mobility for over a month. From the very first appointment, he was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping me heal. Dr. Eric took the time to listen to my concerns and thoroughly explain the root of my knee issues. He created a customized treatment plan that was both effective and easy to follow. Each session was purposeful, and he constantly adjusted my exercises based on my progress. Thanks to Dr. Eric, I’m now pain-free and back to doing the activities I love. He didn’t just treat my knee — he gave me the tools and confidence to stay healthy and active long-term. If you're looking for a physical therapist who truly cares and delivers results, I highly recommend Dr. Eric.

Experiencia fantástica: I appreciate Dr. Brown having an open mind and helping me with my low back, hip, knee and calf issue. I am able to talk with him not only about my physical challenges but also the energy connection in my body. He understood how 36 years ago the trauma my body experienced is still stored and how together, through exercise, movement and working with the trauma how I can release and heal. I appreciated being comfortable talking about energy and not feel like I'm speaking a strange language.

Experiencia fantástica: I am very thankful for Eric. He is a great physical therapist. I have a connective tissue disorder that causes my ligaments to be loose and my joints to be hypermobile. My jaw dislocates on a daily basis causing severe neck pain, jaw pain, and migraines. Eric has substantially improved my quality of life and helped me to live with as little pain as possible. My jaw rarely has pain anymore and moves much better. Thank you for everything!

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend Eric at Movement Restoration Physical Therapy. I have two kids, each with a serious condition—one with arthritis and the other with a connective tissue disorder. These are very different conditions, but Eric’s extensive knowledge of complex issues has made a significant difference. He has helped both of them maintain movement while reducing pain. We are incredibly grateful for all of his help.

Experiencia fantástica: I reached out to Motion Restoration in a sorry state. My neck and back would hurt severely for a week at a time and clear up for a week or two before repeating the cycle over and over. With the treatment and plan developed by Dr. Brown I was able to overcome my pain, understand where the root of my issue came from, and what I could do about it. By actively following the exercises and stretches provided to me, I successfully completed my treatment and no longer required scheduled visits. I am now in control of my pain, and if I fall off the wagon or experience some other issue that Dr. Eric will be able to facilitate my improvement.

Experiencia fantástica: I have dealt with back pain for 15 years. I have tried many different approaches and worked with many different professionals. Some of those were helpful, most were either incomplete, ineffective, or harmful. Eric's approach has helped me get stronger, move more freely, and minimize flare ups of the herniated discs in my back. In the past two years I have only had one flare up of that area, compared to almost quarterly flare ups in the past. His approach not only helped my body but the methodical progression of exercises he prescribed were designed to help my brain and thinking mind trust my body's ability to move in certain ways again. After years of "throwing my back out" bending over lifting things, this retraining of my mind may have been the most freeing and longstanding gain from working with him. I would recommend working with Eric most highly, especially if you can relate to the experience of frustration that comes from both chronic issues and working hard trying things that haven't really helped yet.

Experiencia fantástica: Eric was able to rehab an old shoulder injury. He is knowledgeable in his field of medicine and I highly recommend Movement Restoration with balance or any other physical therapy needs.

Experiencia fantástica: Had an excellent experience working with Dr. Eric! I found him very knowledgeable and professional. I most appreciated his holistic approach to my health. He took into account my lifestyle while creating a treatment plan. I am very satisfied with the experience & results!

Experiencia fantástica: Can’t thank Dr Eric enough for helping me through my hip injury!! He is easy to talk to, listens well and explains things thoroughly. The exercises given for home were simple to follow and challenging enough to build strength. Dr Eric was realistic with timeline of improvement and made recommendations for other treatments when needed. Thanks Dr Eric!

Experiencia fantástica: I wish I would've found Dr. Eric before I spent time and money at an acute care clinic. On the first visit his review and diagnosis was adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder). He created a plan for me based on my lifestyle. He's very knowledgeable and caring and within 5 weeks I had full mobility of my shoulder back! His care plan has allowed for me get stronger than before. He's thorough, compassionate, quick to respond and has a very pleasant office and PT facilities! Thank you Dr Eric! If I ever need PT again , I'll be going back to Dr. Eric!

Experiencia fantástica: Just successfully completed physical therapy for rotator cuff repair, thanks to Dr Eric! He helped me navigate preparation for surgery when my pre-op shoulder pain continued to increase and helped me recognize when surgery was my best option to recover pain free function. The office location is near my home in Sioux Falls, making it convenient for me to attend sessions. Flexible scheduling was super helpful.

Experiencia fantástica: Great results getting help with lower back pain. Everything was explained very well during each visit and the exercises I was given helped immensely!

Experiencia fantástica: As a recreational pickleball player, I started experiencing pain and locking in my knee. My physician referred me to Dr. Eric Brown, physical therapist at Movement Restoration in Sioux Falls, SD for therapy for knee pain and meniscus care. This was the BEST referral I have ever had. Dr. Brown worked with me on a weekly basis with stretching and exercises to strengthen movement and flexibility. My questions were answered as well as knee healing.

Experiencia fantástica: As an avid pickleball player, I was having arthritic knee pain which was greatly restricting my movement on the court. I was referred to Dr Brown to take a look at my situation. He analyzed my conditions and developed a progressive physical therapy program for my knees. After 6 weeks of continuous therapy, I was able to move about the court without the restriction that I had before. I’m continuing the progression to add strength under Dr Brown’s guidance. I feel Dr Brown has to be one of the best Physical Therapists in Sioux Falls based upon his knowledge, the quality of specialized care, and the demeanor in which he interacts with his clients. Based upon my experience, I would recommend him to anyone who needs any type of physical therapy.

Experiencia fantástica: When I went to see Dr. Brown I was in extreme pain, something had ‘popped’ in my back. His wholistic approach of using the entire body to aid in the rehabilitation of my injury had amazing results.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Brown is the best physical therapist I have worked with, hands down. I have seen him for help with plantar fasciitis as well as a recent total knee replacement. He is an expert in the field, and I appreciated his kind, encouraging and thoughtful approach to my care and recovery. I would and will recommend him to anyone seeking a PT. The atmosphere in his office is highly conducive to an attention to and focus on your movement. There are no distractions, and he is careful to watch your every move on each exercise. He never makes you feel badly if you struggle or miss a few home exercises. Not only is he an excellent practitioner, he is truly a good person. His primary concern is for you and you healing!

Experiencia fantástica: I was having problems with shoulder pain and after talking with my primary doctor and trying injections I was referred to an orthopedic surgeon. The ortho doctor recommended physical therapy after determining there was no rotator cuff damage. I found Movement Restoration Physical Therapy on my insurance network and had a consultation with Dr. Eric Brown. Dr. Brown's evaluation and coarse of treatment has given me fantastic results. He explains the anatomy of the shoulder and muscles involved and how the exercises will improve strength and mobility. Be sure to do your homework and hopefully you get the results I did. Thank you Eric, I really appreciate your help with getting me back to being pain free.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Brown is very personable and professional. He takes the time to listen to your concerns and creates a PT plan based on your individual needs. He also personally returns calls/emails when you have questions. I would highly recommend seeing him for any PT needs.

Experiencia fantástica: Very friendly and thorough. Took time to get to know me and my issues before any pt. Was knowledgeable and helped me understand what was happening with my body. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: When I moved to Sioux Falls in September, 2021, I selected Dr. Eric Brown for physical therapy for rehabilitating my right leg after a total hip replacement which was done in another state in August, 2021. My right knee was also painful and I had difficulty bending it following a total knee replacement in 2018 and physical therapy. Dr. Brown showed me the exercises and assigned home exercises, explaining which muscles and ligament were effected by each exercise. Gentle massage and stretching were also part of the therapy. I am very pleased with my strength, balance, and progress, but most importantly I don't need pain medication and am free from long standing pain in my right knee for which I am so grateful.

Experiencia fantástica: I was diagnosed with "adhesive capsulitis" (frozen shoulder) last summer and had never been to a PT for anything. Dr. Eric helped me get full motion back in less than 6 weeks. I now have full range of motion for tennis and pickleball along with my daily activities. I was expecting a much longer recovery period. Eric is very knowledgeable in his profession, eager to adapt a plan that is goal oriented to reach the outcome that you desire, and all while being very caring. Do not hesitate to contact Eric. Thanks Dr. Eric!

Experiencia fantástica: A year of working from home in a pretty much non-ergonomic environment was making my neck and shoulder pain almost unbearable. Dr. Brown prescribed a series of easy to do at home exercises that restored my mobility and relieved my pain immensely. For me, it was life changing. You'll like him!

His professionalism and mannerisms were the best!

I would recommend Movement Restoration and Dr. Brown to anyone who is looking for an attentive, knowledgeable, and caring physical therapist in the Sioux Falls area.
