I really enjoyed coming here when it was Puget Sound PT. Since it's changed over to RET, the…read moreoffice has been discombobulated. My records were confused with another patient multiple times- to the point that the Tacoma office was calling me about missing appointments at their office even though those appointment weren't for me. Also, this location seems very stressed and understaffed and every time I went, it never seemed like a continuation of my last appointment. I would be giving exercises to do but then the next appointment I was just given new ones without any follow up on the prior exercises. I didn't feel like i was really given any opportunity to continue and grow from past appointments.

They play great music here! Today Christopher (Chris…read moreDickerson, DPT, OCS) treated a discomfort I have had for months in my upper shoulder blade. One thing I love more than anything is his outside of the box/text book approach to healing. He does not give up and didn't let me leave until my discomfort was gone. Today he used a "Dry Needling" technique on my shoulder to relieve muscle tension, and it worked, followed by cervical manipulation. When we finished, he educated me on my at home workouts for maximum healing. This guy knows his stuff. I recommend him over any physical therapist and seeing him before considering chiropractic care. A little background on him: Chris is the owner of Puget Sound Physical Therapy. Graduated from the University of Puget Sound in 2009. In 2012, he was awarded his Doctorate in Physical Therapy. In 2015, Chris was accepted for admission into an orthopedic manual therapy fellowship. In 2017, Chris was awarded board certification as an Orthopaedic Clinical Specialist by the American Board of Physical Therapy Specialties. And he's not stopping there, he's currently continuing his education with his Fellowships.

If you are an EDS patient -- or anyone with a complex, slow-healing injury -- stop scrolling and…read morebook with Dr. Kindra McDougall. I am a patient with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and came to her with a left quad tendon tear (where the tendon had actually pulled away from the muscle), bilateral elbow tendinopathy, and a right shoulder supraspinatus incomplete tear. I had already been through prolotherapy and PRP injections -- the supposed gold standard for EDS -- and was still not healing. Dr. McDougall didn't give up on me or accept the plateau as the answer. She researched paired regenerative therapy and brought a peer-reviewed study to our appointment showing statistically significant success rates for shockwave combined with PRP in EDS patients. We built a treatment plan together, and she administered five of my six shockwave sessions herself. The results were confirmed by ultrasound: the tendon reattached to the muscle at two separate points. My PRP specialist was dumbfounded. By the end of my treatment, I had full quad function, meaningfully reduced elbow pain, and I returned to barre classes -- pain-free -- for the first time since my injuries. What makes Dr. McDougall exceptional isn't just her clinical skill. It's that she treats you like a whole person, stays current on research, and refuses to let a stalled treatment plan be the end of the story. She works across multiple locations, and I can say with certainty: wherever she is, she is worth the drive.

If you are looking for outstanding physical therapy care in the Lacey/Olympia area, I would…read morestrongly recommend Inspire Physical & Hand Therapy. Clinical Director, Physical Therapist, and Owner Kristina Pittman is exceptionally knowledgeable and professional in both her initial evaluations and her ability to design detailed, comprehensive rehabilitation programs tailored specifically to each client's needs. Rather than using a "one-size-fits-all" approach, she carefully develops individualized treatment and exercise plans based on the specific injury or condition being treated, while also taking into account the client's age, fitness level, mobility, and overall rehabilitation goals. I can personally attest to the quality of care provided at Inspire Physical & Hand Therapy, as I have received treatment there over the past several years, including during 2026, for multiple areas of the body ranging from my neck to my knees. Throughout that time, I have consistently been impressed by the professionalism, expertise, and individualized attention provided by the staff. Each rehabilitation program was carefully tailored to address my specific physical therapy needs and adjusted appropriately as progress was made. Equally impressive is the supportive and welcoming environment created by the entire staff. From head scheduler Cassie, who helps keep appointments and scheduling running smoothly, to physical therapy technicians Darion and Allie, the team consistently demonstrates professionalism, encouragement, and genuine care for the clients. Darion and Allie do an outstanding job assisting patients as they work through the exercise programs designed by Kristina Pittman, helping ensure exercises are performed correctly, safely, and effectively. What truly stands out about Inspire Physical & Hand Therapy is the combination of clinical expertise, individualized attention, and a positive atmosphere that motivates clients throughout the rehabilitation process. The staff genuinely appears invested in helping people improve their mobility, strength, recovery, and overall quality of life. If you live anywhere near this facility and need physical therapy or rehabilitation services, I would highly recommend considering Inspire Physical & Hand Therapy for your care.

During this last phone call where I tried to reschedule my dad's appointment, she informed me that she would have to remove him from the schedule for multiple reschedulings. I informed her I could not do anything about the upcoming appointment, so he would have to miss it, and she said "OK!" and hung up on me. While it has been tough for me to get my dad to his appointments as scheduled, due to work or illness, I always call ahead and give as much notice as I can. I'll now have to look for another PT clinic, preferably one with better customer service. No issues with the actual physical therapists, or anyone else for that matter... just this one lady.

These guys are THE BEST. I have done PT pretty consistently for the last 10 years due to ankle…read moreinjuries (because I'm a klutz) and a spine injury from being rear-ended. I have worked with some very good PTs over the years. Zach and Stephanie are better! The care and attention they (and their team) provide is top notch, and they are incredibly knowledgeable. I have never felt rushed through my appointments, and have plenty of dedicated 1:1 time with my PT. Their PTA's, Damon & Svenja are just as amazing as Zach & Stephanie. Guiding you through your stretches & exercises, providing incredible support and expertise to make sure you're doing it right. As with any PT program, you have to trust the process. My baseline was unable to leverage a glass of water in front of me, and unable to sit or stand for more than 30 minutes without significant pain. Stephanie started me off with such tiny movements and stretches that I wondered if it would even work. The end result has been steady progress without any major setbacks, and the appropriate amount of discomfort. (You just can't avoid discomfort when you're rebuilding musculature) Stephanie takes into consideration my day to day life, how I need (and want) to function, and has tailored treatment to help me move through the world on my terms. All while getting closer every day to being pain free. The warmth and connection from them to their patients is felt the instant you walk through the door. I am confident they can help anyone. Over the last several months I have watched them rehab teens with sports injuries, middle aged folks with chronic injuries, and seniors recovering from surgery. Don't hesitate, just make the appointment!

After years of back pain, several doctors appointments, and multiple stutter starts with physical…read moretherapy, I am pain free. Linnea took so much time to ask questions, not just on our first day, but continuing through our sessions. She is the first person to look at my complete medical history and the entire picture of how my body was functioning (or not functioning). The eventual diagnosis was both disc issues that I knew about and sacroiliac issues previously undiagnosed. She took the time to reteach me the little tedious movements that had been amplifying my pain. But she also did not strong me along in unneeded sessions. As I started feeling better, she didn't abandon me, but she slowly spaced out out appointments. I had some specific goals (jogging and pilates) I wanted to accomplish before I left therapy. She was very supportive and understanding of those. When I was able to do this pain free, she gave me her contact info in case of any issues and sent me on my way, exercises and stretches in hand. I am extremely thankful for and impressed with this office!
