The Institute for Physical and Sports Therapy

Experiencia negativa: **BEWARE** I took my 13 year old daughter in for right knee pain. Uriah evaluated her and recommended she start 3 sets of 15 - elevated squats, 3 times per day. A treatment plan for anyone, let alone a child to do 135 elevated squats, day one for knee pain is absurd to me. I sought out a second and third opinion, also specializing in physical therapy with athletes, and they all agreed the treatment could cause my daughter more damage and pain to her knee.

Experiencia fantástica: Great practice! I'm glad I came to this clinic while I was visiting my brother for Christmas! It definitely helped in my recovery from my meniscectomy surgery.

Experiencia fantástica: Charles and his team are real professionals they're super friendly and knowledgeable. My exercises were explained thoroughly and they have truly helped. I was experiencing severe neck pain I could hardly look over my shoulder but now the pain is gone and I'm getting stronger in my shoulders and back. I recommend this place of business to all that want to get better and thrive.

Experiencia fantástica: Charles is incredibly knowledgeable & patient with every level of skill & ability! Julie-super helpful & kind! Sharon-an absolute delight to work with! The whole IPT Team: very flexible & generous in the care of their clients!

Experiencia fantástica: Charles is the best physical therapy in town. I called around did my research and I was not disappointed. Not only do they get you in right away, but he is very good at what he does. Extremely knowledgeable extremely friendly and not just that. He's also a local art entrepreneur and his art is amazing... #509art

Experiencia fantástica: I love this place. Everyone is so nice. They work with you and keep you going even when you feel like you can't do no more. I highly recommend this place for working out. Ty. Staff for not giving up on me and pushing me to my goal I need that

Experiencia fantástica: Charles is a very good personal trainer, his crew and him are always listening to your pain problems, in order to find a good solution while treating it there. They are very professional and I recommend them for any sport injuries or car accidents.

Experiencia fantástica: I have gone to several physical therapist’s in the past, but this was by far the best experience I’ve ever had. Charles Gallagher is kind empathetic and very experienced physical therapist. He is a guide and educator during the process of recovery. I was impressed that I was not shuffled from one therapist to another, and that when his assistant Carson was there with me, Charles was nearby too. If you need a physical therapist, you won’t find another of his quality and expertise who would compare!

Experiencia fantástica: Had full knee replacement, started therapy second day . These group of professionals had me walking and bending the new knee in a couple weeks. Great rapport every secession something new. I’ve seen a lot of people come in with pain and leave with relief. 5 Stars great place

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent staff and great facility. I enjoy their relaxed atmosphere with their personal attention to everyone.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to see Charles for a few years to keep myself fit and I love it. Charles and Julie always make me feel like family and are so helpful. I am 66 and work as a server and I’m sure I couldn’t work as hard as I do without their help

Experiencia fantástica: Charles and his team are terrific!

Experiencia fantástica: Charles and his team are great and I can't say enough good things about The Institute for Physical and Sports Therapy. Charles was able to pinpoint the problem with my shoulder and provide the correct treatment immediately. After just a few weeks I am as good as new. Charles does a great job of explaining what each exercise addresses and gives clear instructions. I highly recommend The Institute, Charles and his professional staff.

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic Clinic! Highly Recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I truly am very grateful for all of the excellent Therapy and the open availability of appointments. This facility is very clean and all the staff are very helpful and friendly. I highly recommend this facility to anyone seeking physical therapy.

Experiencia fantástica: Can't say enough good things about The Institute. My frozen shoulder was in great pain. Charles and Julie got me right in. After 2 weeks of therapy both in office and home I am nearly pain free. Charles analysis of my situation was spot on and his treatments and exercises really helped. These folks are friendly and welcoming and did a great job explaining what was happening and how the exercises would help. They sent me home with stretches and exercises to do at home that really sped up the process. I highly recommend The Institute and Charles and his professional staff.

Experiencia fantástica: One of the most effective physical therapy sessions I have experienced. I have been pain free after a left knee meniscal tear and did not require surgery , now after 8 months. Very clean facility, personable and skilled staff as well. Will reurn if needed any time!

Experiencia fantástica: I'd recommend Charles to anyone needing physical therapy.. He has worked with both my wife and me off and on for a number of years. And we've both been extremely satisfied with the excellent therapy and outcomes. The professionalism and friendliness of the office staff is outstanding.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff is wonderful to work with. Had a total knee replacement and they made my experience very pleasurable. I highly recommend this place.

Experiencia fantástica: Great at listening to the patient and working on more than just the injury itself. Nice environment and lovely people, workers and fellow patients.

Experiencia fantástica: Great staff. Great at working with you at your required speed. Going in after Bankart shoulder surgery and making great progress ahead of schedule. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Just ran my first half marathon thanks to Charles and Julies great work getting my knee race day ready. They treat you as if you are part of their family! Thanks for the help! Looking forward to many more races in my future.

Experiencia fantástica: Charles and Julie have created a friendly inspiring atmosphere. Charles has a way of reading people and finding the best way to motivate each person to strive for success. Julie is the glue that holds all the pieces together. And of course I can't forget Diego. He is a PT student from Whitworth and is always ready with encouragement and a smile. Overall a fantastic place to overcome the obstacles life throws at us.

Experiencia fantástica: I was a patient of Charles about nine years ago. Helped me immensely with my shoulder pre and post op. When I injured my back I requested the physical therapy be done at The Institute for Physical and Sports Therapy. Thought I injured my low back. Nope , turned out it was my pelvis . Charles quickly identified the problem . Started treating it. I came in tilting severely to the right at the waste. Walked out standing straight and very little pain. Charles and his staff do a wonderful job and are very careful with your treatment.

Experiencia negativa: Owner yelling at people in parking lot. Rude and unprofessional. Honestly look somewhere else for physical therapy.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve had an incredible experience with the entire staff. Charles takes the time to understand what’s going on, explains what is happening in the body and how and why the techniques he prescribes will fix the problem. Julie is wonderful to work with on scheduling and handling insurance issues. I’ve used their services for three different issues over the last several years and could not be happier with the results and way I was treated. Highly recommend them if you’re looking for a place that will treat you right and help you heal quickly!

Experiencia fantástica: I have gone to physical therapy in the past and I never seemed to be satisfied. I recently tore my calf muscle and needed to go to one, so this one was a new place for me. I was skeptical, but I was walking in a week after not being able to put any weight on my leg for 6 weeks! I was given great exercises and explanations on what they helped and within 2 weeks, I was comfortably walking. I am very happy with this physical therapist!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent care and excellent results!

Experiencia fantástica: I had hip and lower back pain at night for the last couple of years. Every night I would lather her up with aspercream hoping for relief. After my very 1st appointment the aches were gone!! I feel better and stronger after every appointment. No more pain medicine/creams. My only regret is that I didn't do it sooner!

Experiencia fantástica: I first came here after a volleyball injury and Charles is such a great physical therapist. He helped get rid of pain and helped me get stronger to prevent future injuries. I came back recently for back pain and I already feel better after a week! Everybody that works here is super helpful and fun and they care about getting you better. Also Julie at the front desk is the coolest. Would recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Julie, receptionist/ office manager is very welcoming and efficient. The institute is very clean with strict Covid-19 restrictions in place. Each piece of equipment is cleaned each time. Charles treated my husband following both of his shoulder surgeries and he has full use of both shoulders. Then, last year he treated him following his knee surgery. Dale said this is the first winter his knee hasn't hurt. I am seeing Charles for bilateral Achilles tendonitis. I feel better after only 4 days of treatment. I recommend Charles and his office highly and without reservation. 2/16/2021

Experiencia fantástica: I have been getting therapy here for the last 3 months after a complete back fusion. Since my spine is completely immobile Charles has had to really specialize my treatment custom to my needs. Charles and all of the team are amazing and helping me gain my strength back. I highly recommend them!!

Experiencia fantástica: 10+ years after a bad fall on the ice which severely damaged my shoulder there were some movements my shoulder wouldn't allow me to do. Charles and his team have helped me regain the movements, plus eliminate the constant pain I was experiencing day and night and I will be forever grateful. Been the best thing I've done in 10 years and I recommend them highly to anyone who needs any physical therapy! An added bonus is you are treated like family!

Experiencia fantástica: Best physical therapy I have ever experienced! Charles is awesome! Every other time I've gone to PT they've just pushed me through the system so they could get to their next client. But he took the time to get to know my file before I came in, then took the time to explain what he was going to do for me AND why and how it would work...in a way I could understand it. I left with a real hope for it to work for once. I went in hopeless and left feeling like I would actually get somewhere this time. It's very nice to know I finally found someone who cares about my health and wants to help me get the treatment I deserve. The others there were also friendly and professional. I will definitely recommend this place to anyone who needs PT in the future. ♥♥♥

Experiencia fantástica: These guys are incredible. The owners Charles and Julie treated me like family. I broke my arm in a side by side accident and they have been awesome to work with. Some of the best people I know.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff are all so amazing. They helped me so very much! I highly recommend this clinic!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve entrusted Charles and his staff with my care (and my sports-injured children’s care) numerous times throughout the years. If you’re looking for someone that knows athletes and can get you back in your game, this is the place. He’s a die-hard athlete himself so he understands. I highly recommend him.

Experiencia fantástica: I began coming here 3 years ago for an ongoing back problem that no other physical therapist I saw previously had been able to help. The facility is immaculate, staff is always courteous and helpful. The therapist is AMAZING! I got my life back! I can now work in the garden, run 3 miles a day, enjoy life with my grandkids! I have made multiple referrals to friends, and none have been disappointed.

Experiencia positiva: Kind, professional, and knowledgeable staff in a clean and comfortable atmosphere.

Experiencia fantástica: This place opened there doors for me. Charles is helping me out with tips and examples of how to become a physical therapist. They are amazing people and I thank them for helping me out. Very sweet staff.

Experiencia fantástica: Great people doing wonderful things for people who are in tremendous need for a better quality of life.

Experiencia fantástica: The only place I’ll go for any type of P.T. The first time I went in suffering from chronic knee pain for year. The staff here made a significant progress in just one appointment and have since helped me with multiple injury’s since and always walk out healed. I’d give 10 stars if I could!!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Nothing but good things to say about this place amd staff.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place with awesome people who are always there to help.

Experiencia negativa: Rude and disrespectful - will post that I have never been there, since after being treated so poorly I choose to go somewhere else for PT. Read all the other 1 Star reviews. Need serious lessons on how to treat humans.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been coming here for 6 months, and have about 4-6 months more before PT is no longer needed. What an amazing place to be taken care of. I always feel like I’m seeing close family friends when I come in, and I leave feeling more empowered. I highly recommend always coming here for your physical therapy!

Experiencia positiva: We all need to get back in physical shape after this winter and this is the place to do just that. Great physical therapist @ The Institute
