This is the place to go when you need PT. From the front desk person to the PT’s, to the associates. Everyone was professional, attentive, and caring. My PT was Matt S. who was wonderful. He explained in simple terms what could be causing my issues and provided targeted therapy to my pain. Under his direction and guidance in their gym, I became stronger and pain free. His recommendations for a home program to keep me that way have been successful so far. I would return to this office.

Ryan at Bristol PTSMC as well as all the staff have been wonderful! Ryan worked with me to achieve my goals and I must say that every one of my goals has been achieved (neck, right hand, lower back) - I am now pain free!!! This is a very clean facility with friendly and knowledgeable staff. If I ever need PT again, I will definitely be going there. Don't hesitate - very highly recommended!!!

The team here is awesome! Matt helped me go from shoulder pain preventing me from doing CrossFit at full capacity to back to normal! If I have another injury in the future I will not hesitate to go back. I would recommend to family and friends in a heartbeat.

I had an excellent experience working with Matt and Ryan. They supported me both before and after my hip replacement surgery, which made a huge difference in my recovery. Their knowledge, professionalism, and ability to challenge me appropriately during therapy gave me confidence and helped me heal stronger each step of the way. The entire staff is friendly, welcoming, and always helpful. I truly appreciate the care and encouragement I received and highly recommend this practice.

This is my second time getting rehab done here with Matt and his staff. The energy they all have makes my rehabilitation effortless and enjoyable at the same time..

I met Matt and Kat when they first opened to have neck treatment when they had very limited staff. Now he is fully staffed and has a state-of-the-art facility. He performed therapy and became pain free and he returned my mobility. Now my son is going there for knee treatment. Matt is EXTREMELY knowledgeable, he knows the science behind his treatment, explains the theory behind his work, and has genuine concern for you. Kat always makes it easy for you with here communication and will always give you the time to hear your concerns. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND PTSMC AS A THERAPY CENTER TO CHOSE OVER ALL OTHERS!

Without a doubt, the best experience I’ve had after multiple attempts at physical therapy. Matt was competent, kind and willing to work with me and directly with my doctor to determine the best approach to treatment. The staff was friendly and attentive to me, even with the little things that made me feel more comfortable doing the hard things. And guess what….they always started on time! The depth of their knowledge and commitment to my rehabilitation has inspired me to continue doing the exercises daily on my own after discharge. Definitely a five-star facility.

After an extended stay in the hospital, I'm at PTSMC in Bristol to correct all that went awry when one lies in a bed for months. Matt and his group are so kind, understanding, patient, and most of all, effective at working with me through all the various exercises that have me on the path to recovery. There's no pressure. There's no stress. There is, however, A LOT of positivity and expertise. Would I recommend them? I would and I have...several times!

I started seeing Matt because I was having severe pain in both my hips. He could tell right away I had a different issue in each hip that was causing the pain. He along with all the staff were incredibly helpful. Matt also gave me exercises to do at home as well and I am no longer in pain. I had a very good experience. I highly recommend them if you need PT.

I started PT after having a minor ankle surgery. I met with Ryan Nguyen for my evaluation, we went through range of motion, pain levels and what goals I had for PT. We started with 2 visits per week, working on my mobility and strengthening. I looked forward to my ankle/foot massages at each appointment. 🤣 Ryan had me working harder than I had done in a long time, with push/pulling sleds, explosive movements on my feet, sprinting, and stretching. My ankle was back to 100% when a new issue arose. My neck and back had locked up and I had limited range of motion. Ryan quickly got to work to whoop me back into shape. We started with needling which was intense but seemed to really help. Then worked towards strengthening doing uppercuts(this is the worst exercise ever and should be banned), exercised on the cable machine and some additional weightlifting exercises. Now my body is feeling better than it has in a long time and I have Ryan and the rest of the staff to thank. I would highly recommend Bristol PTSMC to anyone and I will go back if I ever need to. Thank you Ryan.

I’ve been to a couple of different physical therapy places but none were close to the employees here that are very warm and welcoming and truly care about their customers. All Physical therapists are very knowledgeable and friendly. Mostly worked with Ryan and Matt Salisbury both amazing physical therapists. They listen to you and help you with your physical health issues. The professionalism and care shown by their staff is exceptional. I highly recommend this business to anyone who needs help with their physical health.I am completely impressed with their professionalism and customer service.

Everything about this office has been wonderful! My daughter broke her ankle playing soccer and has been working with Ryan since July to regain strength. Being 11 years old, she was nervous at first, but he made her, and me, feel comfortable and she now looks forward to her appointments. The entire staff is friendly and everything is clean. I couldn't recommend this location enough!!

The Staff is not only Professional but Caring and Proactive. Ryan was my Primary Therapist but all Staff can step in at any point and you will get the same amazing results. I started with severe Neck and shoulder pain and I am pleased to say that I have had more improvement in Pain Level and movement that I never thought I would have again. Probably the BEST Physical Therapy available. Thank you to all.

I stopped in for an inquiry and Kat at the front desk was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The place is brand new so it's welcoming and clean and bright. I didn't have therapy there but they left a very good impression.

Thank you Matt, Kat and Ryan for your kindness and professional therapy after shoulder surgery. You all were so helpful in setting goals for my recovery and I so appreciate you all. I've had physical therapy at other locations before but you are the BEST! Kat, keep thinking up those riddles, it was a fun way to challenge ones mind. Also, you are such a great team player knowing just what is next on the agenda. Matt, thank you for all your help. You kept me going when I thought I would never get back to normal again. It was a long road but I've made it with your help. Ryan, thanks for always saying Hi and asking how my day was going. Happy Holidays to you all.
