Movement Solutions Physical Therapy

Experiencia fantástica: During the year that physical therapist Michael Ballentine has been working with me my self-confidence and ability to carry out tasks that I thought were beyond me have improved immeasurably. As an octogenarian with compromised eyesight and other physical problems, there is probably no "playbook" for treating me. Therefore, Michael has devised -- and continues to devise -- exercises uniquely suited to my set of circumstances, and they have been hugely successful. I am grateful to Michael for his expertise, good humor and unfailing patience. I would recommend his services to anyone seeking the best care possible.

Experiencia fantástica: I am a 70 Year old male and has been working with Michael Balentine twice a week for over two years. I am adding a third day to our schedule this week. I have varied physical problems that we have addressed. From strength to balance to breathing and joint and core strengthening. We also work on perception of space and cognitive drills. Of all the PT environments I have worked with nothing has come close to the level of caring, understanding of problem and applied solutions Michael brings to the floor. As opposed to most cookie cutter regiments MB works with you for a FULL hour. No passing off to assistants for the second half hour . No one else in the room except myself and Michael. I could go on. If you need help call Movement Solutions and try to arrange a consultation with Michael.

Experiencia fantástica: Michael is the BEST physical therapist i’ve ever worked with (and I’ve been to a few). He is so knowledgeable and thoughtful in his treatment plans and provides holistic care. He does a great job of looking at the whole person instead of just the injury / pain which makes for much better treatment results. I’ve been to other PT clinics where the therapist will be working with 2 or 3 patients at a time, but Michael dedicates your appointment time just to you which is really helpful (and honestly, rare!). He is kind, fun to work with and just the all around best. If you’re thinking about scheduling with him, do it!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a very bad foot injury and went through at least 5 therapists trying to find that someone who not only had the knowledge in treating complex injuries but that was also as invested in my recovery as I was. I really am lucky to have found Michael. He cares so much about your recovery that it inspired me to work harder. He was also super patient, hands on and always listened to how I felt. He tailored each session according to what I needed giving me the right exercises to do. One of the best things is that he gave me detailed exercise instructions and I was able to get back to my normal activities without pain. He treats your whole body's chain of issues and doesn't limit himself to just the injury. Michael is super nice and extremely knowledgeable and caring. The office is easy to get in and out of and the best of all is that you get one hour appointments which is almost unheard of from other physical therapists who mostly just see you for 20 minutes and then get you exercising with assistants who may not know how to properly correct your posture.

Experiencia fantástica: Michael Ballentine has become a pillar of my physical well-being, applying his deep experience, expertise, and focus on a treatment plan that has brought me from daily pain to my current state as a relatively pain-free and strong 72-year-old guy. I have multiple interrelated problems, including scoliosis, arthritis, and injuries to both shoulders and a knee. He devises a care plan for the office and at home that I can follow, and which evolves as I improve. I am very grateful to Michael for providing me with excellent care and for the motivation to move forward to a better outcome. Also, the location is very clean and sterile, scheduling and insurance matters handled with promptness and good cheer.
