Manual Edge Physiotherapy - Physical Therapy

Experiencia fantástica: Absolute 5 star rating for this company. I saw Tim for my entire 9 month pregnancy with some MAJOR back complications. This was after I had seen a chiropractor, and had several emergency room trips, and seen a back specialist who told me "well you're pregnant so I don't know what you want me to do for you". He seriously made those 9 months of my life livable. I went from not even being able to support my own body weight or able to care for my young child, to being able to walk stairs, and not being crying every second of the day. I contine to see him on a maintaining type of schedule and it's the best choice ive made for my body so far. This a seriously amazing, and professional environment, where you feel truly cared for and that they want to help you. Thank you.

Experiencia fantástica: My experience with Mercedes has been very helpful. She is a wealth of knowledge and I really appreciate all the things that she has done for me in the last past two months Mercedes, you rock.

Experiencia fantástica: The hands-on approach of Manual Edge Physiotherapy is very comprehensive with a wide range of specialties not often found in other practices. The care I received complimented my at-home PT program, and accelerated my healing process with decreased pain, as well as increased mobility. The medical team & staff are professional, friendly, and actually care about their patient's overall well-being. I highly recommend Manual Edge Physiotherapy to all my friends and family. Thank you Manual Edge for helping me improve my quality of life. You are greatly appreciated.

Experiencia fantástica: I have suffered from lower back pain incidents for 35 years. I’ve tried steroids, chiropractors and PTs but have never gotten any relief. The incident I suffered 3 weeks ago was the worst ever - I couldn’t straighten up past 45 degrees, couldn’t walk without the aide of crutches and was in intense pain. I knew I needed to try something new. A friend recommended Manuel Edge Physiotherapy with the caveat that they are very busy and I might have to wait a little while to get an appointment. I met with Dr. Bonack and he has two skills that you’ll note immediately - he has unquestioned knowledge of how the body functions, and he has a great ‘bedside’ manner. He immediately diagnosed my issues based on a short discussion about my history and by observing my posture. He got to work immediately. And unlike my chiropractor and previous PT appointments which were no more than 15 minutes, Dr. Bonack worked on me for more than an hour, all while explaining what he was doing and how it was related to my pain. After the first appointment I was able to stand up straighter and walk with less pain. After 3 sessions, my pain is completely gone and I’m fully functioning. I am even back to exercising. It’s too early to tell if I will ever experience back pain again. But if I do, I know I will contact Manual Edge immediately. One last comment. They are busy because they are very good at what they do. But when I called the office and spoke to Jess, the office manager, she could sense my distress (panic!), and was able to schedule an immediate appointment for me. Somehow over the next three weeks, she was alway able to fit me in for the therapy I required. Kudos to the entire staff for the care I have received. I am grateful for how quickly they were able to relieve my pain and get me functioning again.

Experiencia fantástica: As a bed bound woman in a wheelchair after a complicated injury. I’ve struggled to find specialists who listen not just to my words, but to the unheard cries of bodily dysfunction. ***I know how difficult &complicated it is to find proper HELP & care from a results oriented Physiotherapist. One who listens to you & guides you on a path of healing in the right direction FOR YOU. I DONT USUALLY WRITE REVIEWS. Yet, I feel compelled to share with anyone else struggling to have your physical troubles understood. THE HELP & HEALING❤️‍ IVE RECEIVED AT “MANUAL EDGE HANDS ON THERAPY” has proven LiFE CHANGING for me! I experienced unprecedented results within a few months of treatment& more progress over time than I’ve ever had access to before. I’m a patient of Tim Bonack (for cranial/sacral & cervical spinal PT) to address a complex cervical & neuromuscular injury which ive battled for 20yrs. after a traumatic assault crushed my dreams ADLS & basic physical function of LiFE! Tim is impressively insightful, helpful, sensitive, respectful& PRIMARILY a near-miracle worker in helping me regain cervical mobility, increased dexterity& much more. I am also a patient of Kristina Koche (for women’s health PT & specifically pelvic floor trigger Point therapy, & hip/sacral spine mobility.) Her speciality focus has been unimaginably helpful & I was able to progress with pelvic function/health without taking hormone medications. Both these treatment specialists are exceptionally educated &skilled healers. I have been given a day of sunshine/ HOPE when I thought all chances of ACTUAL relief& increased functionality were LONG PAST GONE. This lovely group of people, including their extremely kind, honestly caring &, respectfully private, office staff. I would & *i DO recommend Tim Bonack & Kristina Koche to ANYONE suffering core body pains, back& neck pain, migraine , limited mobility, neuromuscular spasms/contractions, & female health issues- like painful menses, PCOS, endometriosis etc etc. Even if you have no idea what the problem is, I’m certain the caring providers at Manual Edge physiotherapy can help you find your path to healing. I’ve seen numerous specialists over the past 20 hrs These care providers, well, honestly, They KNOW THEIR STUFF!!! After living in 4 states & multiple cities& seeing Drs all around the country, I can say, (with GREAT confidence), that Tim Bonack & Kristina Koche at Manual Edge are in the TOP 5 most effective practitioners, out of anyone in their specialty whose every treated me. I hope you choose to schedule an evaluation & wish you blessings & strength on your &/or your loved ones path to healing. Sincerely, Zoë Emily

Experiencia fantástica: I loved the education and techniques I received from Valerie. Everyone is friendly and professional. Thank you.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been overwhelmed with the skills of Valerie and Mary Therese. Both ladies are very professional and knowledgeable about manual therapy. I feel well taken care of with both ladies.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing help after back fusion when no other pt could help. Val is amazing.

Experiencia positiva: I have suffered with a chronic cough for a number of years and after many medical tests, MRI's, CT scans and the like, no formal diagnosis has been found. So we were referred to Dr. Tim for some alternative treatment and though we are only two weeks into the process, he is pretty confident that he will be able to find the relief I've been searching for.

Experiencia fantástica: I have used Manual Edge twice now and am very pleased with Mary Therese. She discussed my current situation with me and we decided on the best approach! Super knowledgeable! Best therapist I have ever been blessed with. From the front desk to therapy, everything was extremely professional. Facilities are clean, and the staff is amazing. Mack.

Experiencia fantástica: I was referred to Mercedes for pelvic floor therapy by my doctor. She was fantastic! She worked on me and educated me on the inner workings of the body and how they related to my issue. She taught me skills, that once practiced, made all the difference in the world. She is also sweet and compassionate. I highly, highly recommend her as a physical therapist.

Experiencia fantástica: An amazing office! The staff is friendly, supportive and punctual. Dr. Tim is incredibly therapeutic, knowledgeable, and informative in his approach. I have experienced significant improvement in my TMJD pain and improved mobility. This was unachievable without his help and I'm beyond grateful. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Wonderful, and effective alternative to G.I.s inability to help. Mercedes has been incredible at finding solutions for mobility issues, which has also improved my back pain. Highly recommend her and this practice for their genuine care and listening and finding answers.

Experiencia fantástica: At 43 I've seen more Physical Therapists than most people would in multiple life times! I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, hypermobility type, amongst a bunch of other stuff...most of which are chronic issues. So reguler subluxation and dislocations are a big part of my life, but I also suffer from chronic headaches...omg, crippling headaches! So, that's me in a nutshell, now let's talk about Manuel Edge!! A godsend..truly a gift to those that physically struggle in daily life. Talk about Hands-on, it's not just in their name...from the Jess at the front desk to the person at the top (Tim), they are beyond professional and really put the patient first. Always welcomed with a smile and checked in before you even open the door, and never have to wait long...always brought to a private room within minutes! I have been working with both Tim and Ethan...I really am so grateful for them. They listen to everything I say, talk to me about what's going on n what they are doing (to me)...and why things are happening. There is no rush in my goals, listening not just to my words but my body as well. They have helped so much with my headaches, its truly miracle work they do!! I highly recommend to anyone with extreme headaches or difficult medical history....I can promise you, you have never been to a PT like Manuel Edge!!

Experiencia fantástica: Mary Therese is amazing. She is good at listening and addressing the issues at hand. I am going forward in such a positive way already and so glad to be at Manual Edge. Without hesitation, I recommend them highly.

Experiencia fantástica: This office has helped me a ton to feel better and function better, especially related to my pelvic floor health and chronic pain. I greatly appreciate the staff's variety of expertise. I've been going to this office regularly for several years now and seen multiple PTs within this practice, and I've been very happy with the services provided to me.

Experiencia fantástica: My experience at Manual Edge Physiotherapy has been remarkable. I’ve worked with both Val and with Tim. I’ve struggled with physical issues for several years including joint and muscle damage, a history of several surgeries, muscle spasms, severe insomnia, and chronic pain. When I began this therapy, positive change occurred almost immediately. All in all, a tremendous amount of tension throughout my body has been released. It has truly been life-changing. Chronic pain has diminished considerably. Muscle movement is better. Headaches are fewer. Even anxiety has been greatly reduced. Finally, I really appreciate professionalism of my therapists, Tim and Val, as well as all of the staff at the front desk. Everyone has been thoughtful, respectful, and patient. The genuine hope for more healing, fewer medications, and pain-free living has been refreshing. Thank you, Manual Edge Physiotherapy. ——— I don’t know how to leave a second or third review so I am leaving one here by editing. Just wanted to say again how helpful manual edge therapy is and their staff. I have many health issues and my main therapist, Val, always helps… every session (not just here or there), is impactful to my daily life and discomfort levels. The front staff is nearly always helpful. Today they played a neutral part in helping when someone had a question about my vehicle and dog; so neutrality and keeping me informed. Unfortunately, life can get complicated as quickly as people are judgmental so I appreciate very much the staff that is hired as the face in front of manual edge therapy. Thank you.

Experiencia fantástica: Tim Bonack is an excellent PT. I've seen over a handful but none have helped me as much as Tim. Specifically, he has helped me with my TMJ pain and migraines, as well as mobility issues and pain in my neck and shoulder. It is very important to be consistent with your treatment and your home exercises to really see the benefit, and you will! Tim is also a great guy and I enjoy our conversations. I have also seen Ethan while Tim was away and recommend him, he gave me some exercises and tips that has really helped. The front desk staff have been kind and helpful. I highly recommend Manual Edge!

Experiencia fantástica: Manual Edge is the go to place in Colorado Springs for all your physical therapy needs. Physical therapist Ethan Sedman is absolutely top notch in every regard. He is employing cutting edge technology to assist in my regaining total range of motion and strength following my severely torn rotator cuff surgery. Thanks Ethan and Manual Edge.

Experiencia fantástica: Mercedes is a very warm hearted person. She knows what she is doing and makes me feel comfortable in every way. I would highly recommend her.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been seeing Kristina for some chronic pain issues and she has been a huge help in getting me back to feeling like myself. I'm seeing results after her continued diligence in getting me better. She has also shown me some at home exercises and techniques I can do on my own to help with the situation. Thank you Kristina!

Experiencia fantástica: For starters: a front desk that treats you well. Something that's rare these days. My therapist is Val. She's helped tremendously with my tailbone issues and all the side effects it creates. She's very knowledgeable (best pelvic floor therapist I've worked with) and considers everything in the treatments she provides. Highly recommended.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent service! Felicia takes the time to truly listen and consider any concerns, answer any questions and genuinely wants to not only help in the moment but more importantly, get to the root of the problem. She's very thorough, professional, and easy to talk to. I couldn't be more pleased with my experience at Manual Edge Physiotherapy. Thank you Manual Edge and thank you Felicia!

Experiencia fantástica: Manual Edge is a whole new physical therapy experience that most have never experienced in the US; however, I have had the privilege of experiencing it in Germany. I have had a chronic neck/shoulder issue for 20+ years. Normally, a physical therapy tech will show me a few exercises and then I am given some directions on what I should do at home. Only to forget to do the exercises and go back to my old habits...and pain. Manual Edge actually uses manual manipulation to feel for any tightness or areas that are not level. I walk out of their office every week feeling like a champ. Special shout out to Teresa, my therapist. She is a rockstar!

Experiencia fantástica: I am new to Manual Edge Physiotherapy, and I couldn't be more impressed by the professional, caring staff at the front desk. They were able to get me scheduled right away and are always friendly and courteous. My OT, Mercedes is great! She takes pride in her work as she encourages me to do things, I thought I was too old to do! I actually look forward to seeing what with her help I can do next!! Thank you, Mercedes!

Experiencia fantástica: Ken has been great with the therapy treatments for my right knee following my arthroscopic surgery for a torn meniscus! The progress I have made in regaining flexibility has been easier due not only to his hands-on therapy but also because the exercises he has given have made a huge impact; thanks for all the insight & therapy - it’s having a very positive impact!

Experiencia fantástica: Manual Edge offers great, personal, professional Physical Therapy. I am so glad I found them for my treatment. When I had my second knee replacement they moved, massaged and worked the knee gently to work on the range of motion. The therapist works with you the whole time and doesn't pass you off to a tech to do exercises but instead ensures you are doing the exercises correctly to work on them at home. My right knee is doing well and I don't have continued pain. The first knee replacement, the left, is not doing well. I was treated by two other Physical Therapy places and the results were not good, I have little range of motion and continued pain after 5 years. I am back at Manual Edge to try to get better results for the knee and they are already making a difference. My therapist, Val, is well versed in many therapies and is able to do needling. The needling has helped my pain already. Getting a greater range of motion will be a challenge, but she is up to the task. I have a long way to go, but I appreciate the fantastic therapy I am receiving. I like the atmosphere in the office. It is very friendly and helpful from the moment you walk in. The Therapists work together to achieve the best results. I highly recommend Manual Edge Physiotherapy.

Experiencia fantástica: I greatly appreciate the care I receive from Tim and his team. I deal with very rare disorders that can be a challenge to treat. I am treated as an individual and my PT is tailored for me and my needs. I am listened to with my needs and progress at the forefront of my care. The respect, care and compassion I receive is AMAZING. I highly recommend Tim and his team.

Experiencia fantástica: I've seen Ken, Val, and Tim for treatment for a few injuries and conditions, and they are all excellent, caring, knowledgeable providers! MEP really has a wide variety of skills amongst all their providers, and I highly recommend them for everything from chronic overuse running injuries to visceral to pelvic floor PT.

Experiencia fantástica: My first experience at Manual Edge was very positive. I was able to schedule an appointment that worked in my calendar for a couple of days following my contact. Because my medical issue responded to the initial treatment, I received immediate relief from the pain/discomfort in my knee. The actions I was able to take at home have worked very well and I no longer have any significant limitations on my activities, including playing softball. I recommend this Physical Therapy group to others with pain/discomfort from joint issues.

Experiencia fantástica: I can't say enough good things about Manual Edge Physical therapists. My name is Evelyn and I have been treated by both Tim Bonack and Chris Kaster for multiple issues over the past 10 years. Thanks to Tim Bonack, I was from a able to go to my private practice daily and defer surgery for a torn rotator cuff for several years; likewise for degenerative disc disease in my neck. In the last year I'd been suffering from hip and leg pain. After being told by a spine surgeon that I needed multiple fusions, I decided to opt for physical therapy instead. Since receiving frequent and consistent treatment from Chris Kaster over the last year, I've progressed from inability to stand for more than 5 minutes to walking four miles daily pain free. Even if surgery cannot be avoided sometime in the future, I will be in much better shape to recover quickly. Katy would frequently go the 'extra mile' to offer me flexible scheduling. I'm a retired nurse practitioner and have referred multiple clients over the past 10 years and they too have reported back a very positive experiences. I'm very grateful to Manuel Edge Physiotherapy.

Experiencia fantástica: For years I have gone to Manual Edge Physiotherapy whenever I have injured myself. I have always been grateful that my friend Ava recommended this special physical therapy group to me. They have a special edge over traditional PT. If you have a lingering problem I wholeheartedly recommend you give them a try. I find Tim and his staff are gifted, intuitive and they have helped me with a variety of PT issues over the years. Thank you Tim, JOAN W.

Experiencia fantástica: Honestly it's a great experience everytime I go. The staff is welcoming and receptive. The front desk is always willing to work with customer's schedules. I've been offered excellent fitness and rehab recommendations that are issue-specific and compliment each other. But the best part is when the therapist, depending on who you get, makes recommendations that can be considered out of the box. I was recently offered insight into a book that helps to understand the physical effects some mental/emotional problems can take on your body, and what to do to keep a healthy balance. 2 thumbs way up for Manual Edge Physiotherapy!

Experiencia fantástica: The staff at the front desk at Manual Edge Physiotherapy are all friendly and helpful. Val is a fantastic physiotherapist. She cares and did everything she could to help my leg get stronger and to help with the pain after I partially tore my ACL. I would recommend her and Manual Edge to anyone.

Experiencia fantástica: Most PT places herd you in and out like cattle. Very little personalized care. Manual Edge is 100% personal care, not "go ride the exercise bike for 20 minutes while I drink coffee with the rest of the staff". Teresa is great, but I've heard great things about the rest of the staff from friends and family. This place is light years ahead of other PT providers.

Experiencia fantástica: Manual Edge is wonderful. The front desk staff are super sweet. Val is absolutely amazing! She’s helped so much with my pain. She listens and really tries to find the perfect way to help you out. She doesn’t just give you the routine she gives everyone else. She definitely makes it as personal as possible.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant for 34 years. I had 3 car accidents in my eary 20's and have had neck and upper back pain for about 20 of those years. Many of my co-workers have worked on me throughout the years, although I have never had lasting relief. I have been treated by Valarie at Manual Edge for only a few weeks but have already had great success in lasting pain reduction and increased mobilty allowing me to enjoy a more active life! I wish I would have known about Manual Edge years ago.

Experiencia fantástica: Welcoming and comfortable environment. Both therapists I have seen (Kristina and Val) are very knowledgeable. My mobility has significantly improved and my other problems and pain level have decreased. After each session, I have been given exercises that I can do at home to further my improvement, which has been so helpful. I am very appreciative of all they have done for me!

Experiencia fantástica: Tim and his staff are amazing! The amount of knowledge and the number of things they can treat are unparalleled. I have nothing but high praise for Manual Edge and feel so grateful to have found them on my healing journey. Give them a try, you won’t be disappointed!!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve ben seeing Tim at Manual Edge for quite some time now and I can truly tell you it’s been a life changing experience! Each visit is resets my body and ease my pain. I was treated by Tim before and after a car wreck this year. Each visit I feel better and can operate at a higher level with less pain thank you, Tim for healing my migraines and helping manage my pain in a way that I’ve never been able to do before. You and your team are amazing! Anyone lucky enough to be retested here, will be blessed.

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend Manual Edge Physiotherapy and I give them 5 stars for their compassionate approach, knowledge, and experience, working with me to solve my TMJ issues, as well as my hip and low back pain. Tim Bonack worked on my TMJ derangement and was able to diagnose and resolve my complex set of circumstances that contributed to my problem. I felt relief after my first appointment with Tim, and continued to improve after each visit. Valerie Jones tackled my low back and hip issues and diligently set about unwinding multiple problems that have contributed to my pain and immobility. Both Tim and Val have given me exercises and stretches, etc. tailored for my problems to practice at home to gain strength and greater mobility. I am so grateful to have found Manual Edge to help me with my issues. Their entire staff is very compassionate and they work hard at learning about their clients from the moment you walk into their facility. They make it clear that they will work with you until you are able to function well on your own and will be there when you need them in the future. They are my first choice should I have future issues.

Experiencia fantástica: I wish I found this place 2 years ago! The work they do works! From my first appointment I knew I had made the right decision to see Dr. Tim. Immediately, I felt improvements in my body. I have/had a hiatal hernia that's been causing heartburn for 2 years. After diet changes, different medicines and such it only got 70% better. After 3 appointments with Tim I feel about 95% better. Soon to be 100%. It takes time to make an appointment as they're booked out well in advance but during your appointment you get one on one attention and you never feel rushed. It is a bit pricey (my insurance doesn't cover) but it's completely worth their expertise and the money saved on future medicines and doctors that I won't need. The office staff is very friendly and helpful! Can't recommend Dr. Tim and Manuel Edge Physiotherapy enough. I hope this type of medicine becomes the practice norm! Leah

Experiencia fantástica: I had surgical excision of severe endometriosis, with associated restoration of pelvic anatomy, approximately three months ago. I was advised by my expert excision specialist that the surgery was only the first step toward restoring my health, and that it would be imperative to see a board certified pelvic floor physical therapist in order to correct the muscular issues that were a result of the advanced disease. I have been seeing Kristina Koch with Manual Edge Physiotherapy weekly since I was released to begin PT. Her evaluation was amazingly thorough, and she was able to almost immediately resolve some of my post-surgical pain. Kristina's mastery of the pelvic floor anatomy and ability to easily explain not only my challenges, but the exercises necessary to resolve those challenges, is phenomenal. My recommendation couldn't possibly be any stronger. For anyone dealing with pelvic floor disease or dysfunction, do yourself a favor and get in to see Kristina. You won't regret it, and you may be just as amazed as I am by how much improvement is possible when you are working with a skilled practitioner.

Experiencia fantástica: Tim and the team at Manual Edge provide exceptional service. From the moment you enter the clinic you will be greeted and treated with professionalism. Tim’s treatment plan has helped me to better understand my injury, how to exercise to assist with recovery, and sessions provide relief from pain. I highly recommend Tim and the Manual Edge clinic.

Experiencia fantástica: Valerie Jones is absolutely amazing! Went to her about 2 years ago for neck and low back pain. She not only got me straightened out, she gave me the tools to relieve the pain if I experience it again. Just finishing up PT for a total knee replacement, and she's done it again! I highly recommend Valerie Jones and the folks at Manual Edge!

Experiencia fantástica: The folks at Manual Edge are very welcoming, courteous and professional at all times. Their follow-up procedures are well documented to maintain an ongoing relationship with patients whose needs are not just a one-time visit. Since I have several issues requiring treatment, I appreciate the therapists' consideration and concern of the whole body, not just isolated incidents.

Experiencia fantástica: Referred by my Primary Doctor. What a blessing to find Manuel Edge! Quickly zeroed in on exactly what my specialized needs were going to be. Received soothing physical therapy that immediately addressed my needs. Immediately received homework so I could work on my issues at home to quicken my recovery. Tim has amazing healing hands, extreme expertise in the TMJ, Cervical Spine, Neck and Head areas of the body. He also has outstanding customer service. Highly recommend Manuel Edge to anyone!

Experiencia fantástica: Manual Edge is an extraordinary practice based on a very different paradigm than other physical therapy practices I have experienced. I have been seeing both Tim Bonack and Chris Kaster for the past couple of months and their work has been nothing short of miraculous. I have had an eight year history of intermittent episodes of acute low back pain that became much worse this past year decreasing my mobility and my quality of life. When this episode started a year ago, I was referred to another physical therapy office that had successfully helped me during past acute episodes. However, the exercises and dry needling did not work this time, so I decided physical therapy could no longer help me. I thought I was going to have to have the spinal fusion that had been recommended by several different neurosurgeons until a friend recommended this practice. After two months, I am so much better evidenced by decreased pain and increased mobility. I am back to walking about four miles per day with little discomfort. Their high level of expertise in manual hands on therapy and their caring attitude has given me my life back again. I worked as a registered nurse for over forty years and I believe this is an outstanding office with high quality providers. I recommend them to anyone especially if other types of physical therapy have failed to give you improvement. A bonus is that their new office is lovely, light and bright.

Experiencia fantástica: Val and the staff at Manual Edge were wonderful! After dealing with chronic issues for years, I am finally improving. Val is incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and made me feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend Manual Edge for anyone requiring physical therapy!

Experiencia fantástica: Valerie is a wonderful physical therapist! She has helped me immensely with a back issue that has caused me a lot of pain. I felt remarkable improvement after my very my very first visit. She is very caring and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend her!!

Experiencia fantástica: Tim is the best physical therapist I've ever been to. He listened well, and took time to understand my concerns. His treatment approach was gentle and effective. Because of his help, I have seen long-term benefits in relieving my pain! My experience with the other staff in the office was wonderful too. I'm grateful for Manual Edge Physiotherapy!
