Physical Therapy near Penn Hills

“Lifeline Physical Therapy has been absolutely amazing for both myself and my son. I originally went there for neck pain, and they truly helped heal me. That experience alone made me trust them completely, and now seeing the care they give my son as an athlete just confirms how incredible this office is.

Jenna has been amazing working with my son — she is a ball of knowledge, takes time to explain things, and genuinely cares about her patients. Tosha is so personable and welcoming, and honestly the entire staff makes therapy enjoyable. It’s such a positive atmosphere that you actually look forward to going.

What I love most is that you never feel like just another patient. Unlike some physical therapy offices where they point to an exercise and move on while handling five other people, Lifeline is hands-on, attentive, and truly focused on your progress. You can tell they care about helping people get better, not just getting people in and out.

I can honestly say I do not have one negative thing to say about this office. They helped me tremendously, and I will never go anywhere else. 10/10 — highly recommend for both adults and young athletes!“

“My mom and I travel almost an hour to see Matt. He is very knowledgeable, so welcoming and truly just the best! I recommend him to anybody and everybody.“

“About a year ago I hurt my back lifting weights at the gym. Of course Dr. Neff is my brother, he did help me with my pain. With a number of exercises and specific movements, I was relieved of my pain in a reasonable time frame. He is very knowledgeable in his field and I'm sure that he could help you too.“

“Dr. Erik Bowman is a great person to deal with. He is easy to talk to, and he addresses your issue and helps to resolve your problem in a timely manner. Whether you need one treatment or many, he is always there to help. There hasn't been anything that he hasn't been able to help me with, to manage my chronic pain. The staff there are also very nice and do what they can to assist you with your appointments and concerns. Thank you to all, @ the Frankstown office.“

“I have been seeing Donna over the years for different medical issues. She is considerate, compassionate and always goes above and beyond when meeting with me. Her knowledge always amazes me because she puts all the medical talk in terms that are easily understood. I recommend this practice to anyone needing help as they are the best facility I have ever experienced.“

“I've been coming here for my torn rotator cuff and I can't imagine going anywhere else! Everyone is so friendly and helpful!“

“I have been going to Iron City PT for a few months. Dr. Kevin is a fine, compassionate and knowledgeable physical therapist. When I started going to him, I thought I was heading for knee replacements. At this point he has relieved most of the pain in my knees and has taught me some techniques and exercises to continue with the therapy. I highly recommend this young man!“

“I started going to Precision Physical Therapy and Performance in 2023 for debilitating sciatica issues. Dr Karly Allen evaluated me and quickly put in place a game plan to get me on the road to recovery and working out again. When I started with her, I could barely walk; the pain was so bad. Within a few sessions and clear guidance on exercises to do at home, I started getting better in no time. We worked together for months to get me 100% and strong again.

I have been consistently impressed with her expertise, which is why I continue to see her for ongoing physical fitness maintenance. She efficiently recognizes any limitations I may have and adapts exercises as needed, enabling me to benefit from targeted muscle group training. Over the past few years, I've experienced many challenges and setbacks, mainly due to family health issues that demanded my attention and affected my ability to focus on fitness. Through all of this, Karly has been right by my side, she has consistently supported me and guided me every step of the way.

I cannot say enough good things about this clinic. They have a friend and client for life!“

“I have been working with this team to regain my balance and walking capabilities after an acquired brain injury. I have made so much improvement and they have kept me motivated along my journey. Great people and great facility. I will be a loyal customer for the rest of my life.“

“Nancy Foley is the absolute best! I have seen her for multiple different problems over the last 5 years. She always performs a thorough assessment, has a great fund of knowledge with wide-ranging expertise, and provides a detailed treatment plan. I have recommended her to everyone I know. As I age, I have come to realize that a good physical therapist is the most important person in your life!“

“When I thought that POTS was going to be the end of my extremely active lifestyle, Kelsey gave me hope that I could get better and she made that happen! She encourages me through all of my treatment on good days and bad days. If you’ve just been diagnosed with POTS or dysautonomia of some sort, you will thank yourself for investing in your health. Take it from me, a girl who works in healthcare but has given up on most physicians. No one is as knowledgeable and kind as Kelsey.“

“Dr. Nutter takes time to listen and understand his patients needs, his personable approach helps you feel at ease knowing he cares and wants to help you on the road to recovery“

“Dr. Elizabeth and her team are so kind, knowledgeable, and professional. I tried 2 other PTs for neck, shoulder and lower back issues. I was feeling like I was just going to have to live with pain for the rest of my life. Elizabeth and Katie helped me so much! They spent time getting to the root of my issues and provided the guidance and tools that I needed. They were so encouraging during my appointments and they made sure I could do the exercises at home too so I could keep my momentum. They gave me the confidence to add back activity that I used to do I am feeling tons better! Pain is mostly gone and Katie helped me develop an exercise program that I can do on my own and that will help me get stronger and stronger. A great experience!“

“I've been treated for various chronic and acute issues by Dave Thompson, Holly Lohr and staff at Alliance Physical Therapy since August 2025. They've made my life and body more functional and pain free ever since. I have to put out a ton of gratitude to everyone on staff for my latest emergency visit due to an unforeseen back sprain that was the worst pain experience I've encountered. After 4 days of it, I contacted the office desperate for help. Tara, Dan and the staff there - including Dave of course - shuffled their full schedules in order to accommodate my plea for help. I was given an appointment and Dave quickly assessed what to do and miraculously (to me) alleviated the acute problem. I went from a pain level of "15" walking in there to about a "1-2" this morning. These folks are always pleasant, smiling, welcoming and willing to go the extra skillful mile if it means their clients are going to feel better. When I walked in there everyone greeted me kindly with empathy. I don't know what I'd do without them. Highly highly recommend their services. Thank you!“

“Dr. Zak took the time to listen to my issues and started working on them from my first visit! Thank-you!“

“I am searching for relief from sciatic pain that has been with me several years. I have tried PT, stretching, herbal remedies and nothing seemed to really help.I was warmly greeted and the screening process was very professional. After a consultation that addressed my concerns and expectations while thoroughly explaining the mechanics of sciatic issues my first treatment proceeded. A very comfortable vibration muscle relaxation , spinal decompression, laser, then neuro stimulator and cold pack to finish. I had instructions to follow up with intermittent cold therapy at home and to limit my twisting and heavy lifting for several hours, which I did.
The following morning I found I was not as uncomfortable upon rising.
I do not expect my sciatica to disappear with only one session. But I can feel a difference in my pain subsiding much more quickly than if I did not have a treatment. I do not take nsads to mask discomfort.
I will be returning for another treatment with the hope of receiving even more relief.“

“This was a great experience. I felt a dramatic change in me from the first day to the last. The staff were friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. The facility was very well equipped and clean. Thank you to Emily, Sienna, Denise, Lauren, Mike and Alyssa.“

“When I walked in, I was in so much pain from a frozen shoulder I could barely lift my arm, but each week working with Megan, Colin and Jake, I learned body mechanics, gained strength and worked through the pain. Now I am doing great, lifting weights and able to do my job and household chores again! I am so thankful for their help and expertise. I recommend them highly!“

“Everyone in the office is amazing! So compassionate and friendly. Went in with a rib injury and Dr.Zak and Dr.Katey were wonderful. Really helped me to feel better. Just had my first massage with Thurnetta and it was the best massage I’ve ever had. Will definitely recommend this place to friends and family.“

“My experience with PTN was great. I went from walking slumped over in pain to an effortless stroll in 2 months.“

“Nick C. Was very knowledgeable and started me on some pt exercises to hopefully help some back pain I’ve had for years. I’d definitely recommend him to family and friends for how easy he made it even though pt is almost never fun for anyone.“

“Shane and his team at the West Mifflin clinic are truly fantastic. My job depends on my ability to walk and be active, and when my hip started to hurt, I was worried about being able to continue working a job that I love. Shane developed a rehab program for me, targeted at addressing my pain and limitations. I noticed improvement quickly, and as my pain improved, Shane increased the difficulty of my exercises and added new ones to further target my problem spots. I felt that Shane and his team were invested in my recovery as much as I was, and that they truly cared about my getting back to normal. They provided the best care I could have hoped for, and I am grateful for their help! I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone needing physical therapy.“

“The staff was very helpful and thorough in their treatment. The explanations of the issue and what to do in the future were very good. I would recommend them to anyone needing to have physical therapy.“

“I finally found a place that understands my needs for recovery and actually listens. I appreciate the knowledge and educational mindsets that is provided.“

“I was very skeptical at first that therapy would help with my back issues. After about 3 and a half weeks working with the staff I started to get some relief. By week 6 I was back to feeling 20 again. The staff here are friendly and do a great job.I highly recommend them!“

“Tori is the best PT I have ever had!
She is incredibly knowledgeable and offers various types of treatment & TLC.
Friendly staff, easy parking.
I highly recommend Tori. I am hypermobile and an aging athletic person. She is key to my well being.“
