Expert Performance Physical Therapy in Boston, MA
60-minute, 1-on-1 sessions with a Doctor of Physical Therapy — no aides, no cookie-cutter plans, no insurance calling the shots. Manual therapy, dry needling, and hard work in a full gym so you can get back to running, lifting, and doing what you love.
Traditional PT Wasn't Built for People Like You
You're Being Handed Off
Most clinics rotate you through aides and assistants. Your actual PT sees you for minutes — not the full hour you came for.
Cookie-Cutter Programs Don't Fix Root Causes
Generic exercise sheets don't address why you're in pain. Without treating the root cause, the injury keeps coming back.
Insurance Limits What You Can Get
Coverage caps dictate your care — not your goals. If you want dry needling, manual therapy, and performance work together, insurance often says no.
