Physical Therapy near Willow Grove

“This place is the best. I first came in 2019 for back issues. With personalized support I was able to get my pain under control and I still practice the routines today. I came back in 2020 for a rotator cuff issue. Again, after a well planned routine that progressed through treatment, my shoulder issue was resolved without surgery.
But aside from top quality care, the people who work here are genuinely caring, kind, and funny.“

“First time meeting Dr Kearns at the request of Dr Sweet (who is amazing). Well, she couldn’t be more right. He was informative, honest, spoke to me as a real person (not like I was just another appt., as most docs do), took his time (even for some small talk), and I left with a plan. Other docs should take notes!“

“Im very pleased with this place! Was a little nervous at first but the dr was easy to talk to, informed me what was going to be done and made me feel at ease. The receptionist were sweet. Glad to have found this place!“

“Would recommend to anyone who needs it, best place I’ve been to so far. Very friendly and always fun to go to.“

“Tim is an excellent therapist. Working with him and those who helped him was always good.“

“Located inside XL Sports World, so very convenient t location for parents and athletes...All around fantastic group of physical therapists to get PT from. I've been there three times for different reasons each time and ALWAYS completed PT feeling far better and in much less pain than when I started. Office staff also very courteous and understanding regarding scheduling g changes last minute. Go see Jake or Luke to get your back pain gone or significantly reduced!“

“I’ve been walking into Disston Chiropractic for some time now and every time feels less like stepping into a medical office and more like walking into the home of a family who genuinely cares about your well-being. From the moment you enter, you’re greeted with warmth, kindness, and a sense of belonging that is incredibly rare in today’s fast-paced healthcare world.

The front desk staff set the tone right away—always friendly, professional, and efficient. A special shoutout to Linda, whose bright energy and compassionate nature make every visit feel personalized to me! She remembers your name, your needs, and somehow always knows just when you need a kind word or a smile. She even feeds you sometimes. I still owe them a bag of oranges ? from Florida!!! ???

Dr. DiCarlo brings the perfect blend of professionalism, skill, and heart. You can feel his deep commitment to his patients with every adjustment and every conversation. He listens. He cares. And most importantly, he helps heal.

Then there’s Brianna, the in-house masseuse, who is simply phenomenal. Her hands are intuitive, strong, and restorative—she doesn’t just give massages; she gives relief, calm, and balance. She tunes into your body like a true healer.

And of course, Dr. Ed—what can we say? He’s a legend in his own right. Wise, experienced, and incredibly personable, Dr. Ed brings not only top-tier care but also a grounding presence that patients of all ages can trust and admire.

At Disston Chiropractic, you’re not just a client. You’re part of a wellness family that treats you with respect, empathy, and genuine love. Whether you’re in pain or just maintaining your health, this is the kind of place that will restore both your body and your faith in people.

Highly, highly recommended. ?“

“I had physical therapy at this center, and I was extremely satisfied! The entire staff treats patients with great care and respect. The specialists are true professionals who helped me feel significant improvement quickly. The organization is top-notch: scheduling, appointments, and procedures — everything is smooth and convenient. Thank you so much for your care and support! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for quality physical therapy!“

“Very friendly and helpful. Very concerned for how I am feeling and doing. Highly recommend coming here to take care or your aches and pains.“

“From my husband who has gone there for 3 months_ Gary Breen writes:
I had two operations on my shoulder in a six month period. One in March and the other in September. The first one was a shoulder replacement and the second was to remove a buildup of scar tissue. I was told by the surgeon that I had to start physical therapy the very next day after the second surgery. After my first surgery I was going to a different PT place. I stopped going there because the surgeon told me that there is no reason to go to PT until the arthroscopic surgery was done. After that surgery I tried to make an appointment to continue with them but they could not accommodate me. The surgeon was quite adamant about starting PT the next day.
I had to find another place.
My wife previously was a patient at Glenside. She said that she liked the trainer who worked with her on her hip. She said that his name is Kyle and previously in the past was a cheerleader for the Philadelphia Eagles.
When I called to make an appointment the individual to whom I spoke was very friendly. He said that there would be no problem starting and was assigned a therapist by the name of Kelly. For the most part Kelly worked with me. However, there were times that other therapists worked on my shoulder. All of them were friendly, caring and well-schooled. With all their help I progressed very quickly.
I highly recommend Glenside Physical Therapy. I really landed on my feet when I chose them.“

“Went for some treatment and was impressed with exercise plan, ease of scheduling and most importantly the results. Clearly they know what they're doing and were open and honest about realistic expectations for recovery. Did not like another place I tried years ago, they were typical medical product / service providers and were only interested in keeping me as a perpetual customer.“

“I cannot thank Jayson and Iron Physio enough for the incredible PT care I was given during my ACL rehab. If you are in need of Physical Therapy- seriously look no further than Iron Physio!! The environment was always positive, fun and professional.

I had a high grade partial ACL tear and received opposing opinions from surgeons- two drs said I needed the ACL reconstruct to get back to my normal activities and another dr said to try and rehab it. I was so overwhelmed with the mixed opinions and timelines to get back to my life, but Jayson and Marty took the time to walk me through all my options and helped me make the decision that felt right to me, which ultimately led to healing my ACL without surgery (which I am told is a big deal so again shoutout Iron Physio!!!!)

Throughout the rehab process things were up and down with my pain and it would sometimes move around to new places. The big difference that sets Iron Physio apart, is that every session they would take the time to listen and understand where I was at physically and mentally in order to care for my specific needs- it was never a generalized one size fits all approach. When I originally started I thought Physical Therapy was what it sounded like- physically gaining back strength, but they taught me a huge portion of the recovery process is also mental. So, they not only helped me gain my strength back tenfold, but also made sure I was mentally prepared to get back to the things I enjoyed.

I cannot stress enough the many frustrating encounters I had with other drs and insurance and blah blah blah who treated me like a number, but Jayson always took the time to clarify things in simple terms and answer my many many questions (10 months of rehab with a yapper like me must be exhausting) but no matter the topic he was always kind, respectful and always found a way to explain to me that whatever I was going through/feeling was valid and or normal during rehab.

So once again, giving the biggest thank you and recommendation I could possibly give to Jayson and Iron Physio for helping me in every possible way throughout my ACL recovery. You guys are the best in the business!!!

“I was in a car accident that messed me up for quite some time and put me in a depression and I was referred to a different Excelsia location which had a cold vibe but a great Doctor ! I was referred to the Grant location for Cognitive therapy for. Brain injury and this place had a completely different vibe . It feels like you’re at home with people who are nice and genuinely care .I actually look forward to coming here which is a rare thing ! The staff starting from the ladies at the front desk to the Therapist are the nicest people . You don’t see this too often anymore , I see the ladies talk to each and every client as soon as they walk in they’re greeted they’re genuinely nice people the whole staff is friendly and they make you feel welcomed and comfortable , everyone here looks like they enjoy their job and you can feel that , in todays world unfortunately we have people who do not want to work and it shows not many care but the staff here at Excelsia on Grant Ave truly take pride in what they do and genuinely care about their patients! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone in need of therapy . The treatment is exceptional! My therapist is Dr. Harris , he always makes me laugh , when I first came in and was so depressed from everything that I had been through and he helped me through it . He is always positive , honest , caring and uplifting. There is another therapist here who is always making people laugh , it’s just a great energy here . I love it ! Come here to Excelsia on Grant Ave in Northeast Philadelphia if you’re in need of help and healing , you will be well taken care of .

“12/10!! I couldn't recommend Restore PT & Pelvic Health more!! I got to work with Gabi, and not only is she incredibly knowledgeable (I saw immediate results after just one session with her!!) and professional, she is so understanding and empathetic. Restore PT puts so much effort into making the space comfortable for every patient that walks through the door. I had such a fantastic experience. Unfortunately, it was cut short due to a family emergency and I wasn't able to complete all of my sessions. But I am continuing with exercises/stretches and am noticing improvement daily. Gabi actually reached out to me to follow up and check-in on how I was doing. She truly cares about my health, and makes me feel so supported and like I can reach out to her with any needs. I highly recommend Restore PT & Pelvic Health, cant say it enough!“

“I’d like to give a super-super kudos to my Son Joshua’s Occupational Therapist Denise Gordon-Weisman and Dennis DeSalme.

They are a GODSEND! My Joshua simply ADORES Denise. Her hands-on approach is stellar and my boy is learning new things and I couldn’t be happier!

Not to mention she got a table & chairs, to mirror what Joshua is learning in school. She certainly stent have to but she did. She went and continues to to ABOVE & BEYOND and my heart is incredibly light!“

“I can’t rave about Phil and his work enough. Others have said it—he really is a wizard. Has alleviated a lot of my pain. He has a holistic approach and is so knowledgeable, experienced, and talented. If you’re on the fence, just go for a consultation and give it a little try and you’ll be sold too. Appreciate him!“

“I have been working with Pain Free for 2 yrs. Dr. Kim is awesome and the staff is exceptional! He has eliminated severe back pain. He now is eliminating severe shoulder pain. I would highly recommend him for any muscle discomfort or pain“

“This place is amazing !
The staff are so dedicated and really care about your kid.
We've realized in short term a lot of progress!
Thank you !“

“I was at a loss as to how to soothe my newborn, but Anthony's assistance in adjusting my baby boy has brought about a remarkable transformation. I would highly recommend coming to him.“

“All the staff at the Bustleton Ave location are highly professional and skilled, but still friendly and personable. I don't want to be treated by well-trained robots and that is NOT what you get at Montco Rehab. I've made excellent progress clinically with the help of therapists Jackie and Frank (there was a staff switch after I started, but everything worked out quite well), and I've come to trust the team so much that I'm planning on seeking additional referrals to treat other long-standing issues when I'm finished dealing with my broken/replaced shoulder. Aides Mia and David keep a watchful eye on all the patients and provide much needed support - moral and physical. Carol has kept my account up to date and running smoothly.
All in all, I couldn't have asked for a better first-time PT experience, and I'm very grateful to the Montco Rehab team for all their help!“

“I was going to therapy after a auto accident, a friend recommended Infinity of care because I wasn’t happy with my current therapist. My first day of therapy with Infinity therapy, my back felt so much better!! I felt like I knew the staff for years!!! Very friendly and caring!!!“

“Advance Physical Therapy is the best center ever! The attention and care is unmatchable, is like any other. The staff is friendly and attentive; since the first time I spoke to them on the phone in order to set up the visits…. From scheduling, all the way to all of the therapists and assistance this is the best place ever to get well and heal from any type of injury.“

“Over the years, I’ve had many types of P.T. Sessions, but none compared to Kelly’s expertise and caring personality. I felt her techniques were designed especially for me. I’m already moving better, and even felt so after the first session. Thanks Kelly!“

“This place is magic. I could barely move before I visited these highly competent teammates. I am regaining my strength. I can wash dishes by hand, go on walks, and lift my back pack when I have not been able to do so for months before visiting. My pain is dissipating and much less frequent when it was chronic and debilitating before they helped me. I leave the office feeling joy and a sense that I am finally on track. Don't be stupid and wait as long as I did to seek help. Don't bother with anyone else. They will empower you and make you stronger than you were before any injury.“

“Dr. Eshleman and his staff go above & beyond for all his patients. Talk about a unicorn doctors and staff. You found one! Very Down to earth, tells you the truth with no B.S. He will fight for his patients and not the insurance company. You'll never find another like them!“

“The physical therapists were so skilled at identifying my issue and providing me with the exact therapies needed to improve my condition. I ‘m so happy that I have the knowledge to keep myself as pain free as possible going forward. The therapists were so friendly that it made it easy to take in the information and promote my healing. I would absolutely recommend Good Shepherd Penn Partners to anyone in need of therapy.“
