Pain can change everything.
It can make climbing stairs difficult, interrupt your sleep, limit your ability to exercise and keep you from working, playing sports or enjoying time with your family.
You do not have to accept pain, weakness or limited movement as your new normal.
At Physical Therapy Now, our experienced physical therapists help people throughout Pittsburgh, Fox Chapel, Glenshaw and surrounding Allegheny County communities identify the source of their movement problem and develop a personalized plan for recovery.
Physical Therapy Designed Around Your Life
Every person—and every injury—is different.
Your physical therapy evaluation may include an assessment of your strength, joint mobility, posture, balance, walking pattern and movement mechanics. We look beyond the painful area to determine what may be contributing to the problem.
Your individualized treatment plan may include:
- Hands-on manual therapy
- Therapeutic exercise
- Strength and mobility training
- Neuromuscular and balance training
- Movement and gait retraining
- Education and injury-prevention strategies
- A personalized home exercise program
Our objective is not simply to provide temporary relief. We want to help you restore movement, improve function and reduce the likelihood that the same problem will continue returning.

When Should You Contact a Physical Therapist?
Consider scheduling an evaluation when pain or limited movement is:
- Interfering with work, sleep or daily activity
- Preventing you from exercising or playing a sport
- Making stairs, walking or standing difficult
- Continuing after an injury
- Returning every time you resume activity
- Causing weakness, stiffness or reduced balance
- Limiting your recovery after surgery
Waiting for the problem to become severe can make recovery more difficult. Early assessment may help identify movement problems before they create additional limitations.
Do You Need a Physician Referral?
Physical Therapy Now is a direct-access physical therapy provider. Many patients can begin the evaluation process without first obtaining a physician referral.
