This is a truly exceptional place…read more I tore my MCL four months back, and as a runner, it completely destroyed me and my whole life. I felt like I had no hope. I was walking home from the bus station one day and saw this place. I figured, why not call? What's to lose? They immediately were so kind, took my insurance, helped me. My PT, Dahne, is absolutely incredible. She has helped me go from barely being able to walk, to being able to climb Katahdin and run seven miles. She has listened to my goals and helped me achieve them- and it's hard work, but she pushes me and teaches me about how strong our bodies can be. I have never met another person that has inspired me so much in my fitness journey. I am so, so grateful for her. I'm still healing- MCL still gets spicy- and I'm so glad I have Dahne to help me. Being a chubby girl with an injury is embarrassing. But I never feel judged here. I cannot recommend enough.

Everyone from Sunny the patient care coordinator who is so quick to respond to any question to my amazing PT Liz to the other staff and patients, they're all kind, patient and use the most insanely cool high tech equipment.

No elastics or exercise sheets, no he gets to the fibers of your issues and helps them to relax and gain your mobility back. Frank helps your body to naturally heal at it's own pace and when it's time exercises for strengthening begin. I highly, I MEAN HIGHLY recommend Scrarborough PT Associates for your PT needs. The facility also offers classes, massage therapy and other modalities of the healing arts. Staff is friendly and easy to work with. Waiting area is clean and multiple reading materials provided as well. Parking is great usually close to the building a short walk to the entrance.

After shoulder surgery, I called three weeks in advance to make the appointments for post-op PT…read more When I showed up for the first appointment, the therapist led off with, "So, what are you here for?" They hadn't even done the required legwork to get the surgical information from the surgeon's office. She spoke with her practice manager and asked for the notes to be requested. When she returned, she said there would be no charge that day, and then said we could start doing some therapy. I told her I didn't want her yanking my arm without her seeing the reports and knowing what the surgery entailed. On my way out, the front desk clerk INSISTED that a co-pay must be collected even though no work was done and the practice manager said there would be no charge that day. It was worth the $31 to get out of there and make the 45 minutes each-way drive to Brunswick for professional PT experiences. Avoid.

So I went there two years ago (while still in high school) for some PT and I did like it a lot…read more Fast forward to now I needed PT again. So I had my doctor write a referral to this same place that I knew. Today I received a phone call from my old physical therapist and it was an awful way to treat someon. She asked me "so what's been going on?" I then tells her what has been going on. She then accused me of not following their compliance policy. Yes we had to cancel some appointments but I have IBS and I was still in high school. Come on people people change in two years. Don't go here if you're human a make mistake.

I herniated a disc in my lower back recently, which was alarming given that I'm very active and…read morestill in my 30s. I literally couldn't walk for the first few weeks without excruciating pain, sciatic nerve jolts, and instant nausea. Pain meds did nothing (opiates included, despite my hesitance to try them). Med professionals, while helpful to some degree, couldn't give me a clear answer on direction of treatment--could get an injection, could get surgery, sort of up to me. They recommended I start with physical therapy, and I'm grateful for that recommendation--the spine specialist gave me the number to Back in Motion, in Portland, ME. I was skeptical. The space is in a strip mall on outer Brighton. The therapy space is shared with multiple physical therapist and patients. I worked with Dan S., and he quickly alleviated my concerns. Dan is thoughtful, smart, funny, and takes time to get to know his patients. He asks a lot of relevant questions and offers practical suggestions and feedback. We met weekly for about four months--I went from unable to stand for more than a few minutes at a time, to (on my last visit, recently) jogging laps around the parking lot, working on form and balance. There was a lot of work in between, but all of it was set in motion by Dan's guidance. He explained how each exercise would help in the strengthening and recovery process, and he built a customized program that worked for me. I incorporated his suggestions in my workout at the gym. Dan is the real deal. When my other healthcare professionals (chiropractic, nurse practitioner) asked about my PT progress, and I told them about the specifics of my plan, not only did they seem pleasantly surprised, they commended the direction of treatment and Dan's recommendations. How often do various wings of healthcare agree on anything?! Even though the space is a little small, and even though you might have to work around other patients, the staff is awesome, and it was well worth my time and energy. I highly, highly recommend that you give PT a try before you consider injections or surgery. And, if you go to the Portland, ME location (Brighton Ave), ask for Dan. You won't be disappointed.
