Rooted Physical Therapy

Having had several visits for PT over a lot of years due to injuries suffered while doing the athletic activities I enjoy, I can honestly say that Michelle is as good as a physical therapist gets. Knowledgable, caring, concern and definitely compassion are her strong points.

Michelle Stringer has expert knowledge of the human anatomy which helps her provide informed whole body treatment. I had a total hip replacement on 19 November and her skill to prepare me for surgery and in the early stages of recovery helping me heal.

After having a spinal fusion and a hip replacement in less than a year, I felt that the PT I had done had not completely addressed my issues. My Pilates teacher reccomended, Michele and Rooted Physical Therapy. Her assessment and treatment addressed issues in a way that helped me have a clearer understanding of what I needed to do to improve. She gave me exercises that I can look up online so that I can see the correct way to do them. The manual ttherapy she does is incredibly helpful. And, she did not have me do so many exercises, with so many reps that it felt overwhelming. She not only has the expertise, she is a lovely person, funny, and caring. Oh yes, my husband's experience with Michelle was, in his words: "It was brilliant!"

Michelle is not only an excellent overall physical therapist having seen her for a knee problem in the past, but she also has specialized training in pelvic floor dysfunction which I recently saw her for. I so appreciated her sensitivity to my issues and how gentle and caring she was. Each week she tailored the exercises to what she knew I could do. Michelle engaged with me, listened to me and always made sure I was comfortable when doing the pelvic floor therapy. I would highly recommend Michelle for any aged person as I had the opportunity to see her work with a toddler and I’ve seen her work with a patient with dementia always treating her patients with warmth, respect, kindness and she has a lovely sense of humor.

One of a kind! Rooted PT helped when no one else on island could. Michelle was able to help me heal after having twins. She’s a wonderful blend; professional, personal, knowledgeable and caring! This was my first experience with physical therapy and I wasn’t sure what to expect. My needs were addressed and each visit exercises were assigned that were specific to my body. An App made keeping track of my assignments easy and it was rewarding to see progress. She’s easy to talk to and a great teacher. Even after I completed my therapy she was there for continued support. If I could give her 10 stars I would:)
