“ Fantastic staff, they care about helping you get better. A well-rounded physical therapy clinic, they incorporate science-based myofascial release techniques with individually tailored rehab programs to get you where you want to be.I especially like the hands-on approach (literally!) they take with each patient. You aren’t a number here, and the therapists will work with you and adapt their treatment depending on your progress and needs the day they see you - not blindly holding to a plan developed at the start of your treatment.As a sports enthusiast, I was also pleased to learn that they play competitive sports themselves, and have experience with sports-related rehab. Both my knee and back concerns have been addressed, and while I don’t hope pain or injury on anyone, if you have it, you should try them out - they’ll take care of you. ”

“ A Physical Therapist like no other!I have been a patient of Sandi’s since this summer. I have been to PTs off and on for over 8 years dealing with hip pain, before and after surgery, and I finally feel like I have found someone who is making a difference. I spent my first monsoon season without pain in my hips. This was such a blessing!Myofascial release is one of the best discoveries I have found; I was a skeptic at first, but I am glad Sandi convinced me to come in.Sandi, Kim, Aleyda, and Mary are detail-oriented and a dedicated team. They have a specialized approach and plan for each patient, each time you come in. It is specific to your needs, and your pains; they make you feel welcome and like a friend. I refer this practice to you, as well as my friends and family.Best wishes in your recovery. ”

“ For 5 years I suffered everyday from low back pain and sciatica. At one point I was taking 22 pain pills per day. My Pain Management doctor recommended Athletica because they work one on one with the patient and are a small facility devoted entirely to the patient. I met Sandi who did the hands-on work and then another therapist who worked with me on an exercise program. All the patients are continually monitored to make sure each exercise is done correctly. The atmosphere is very friendly and comfortable. Sandi always explains what manipulations she is doing and what I should expect the result to be. Sandi explained upfront at my first treatment that my recovery would be a long process, well exceeding my insurance benefits. I have been pain free for 2 years as Sandi correctly diagnosed the cause of my problem and was able to "fix" it. My pain doctor said it was like a miracle that I was out of pain and based on my great experience at Athletica, he has sent some "tough cases" for pain management to Sandi. I recommend Athletica to anyone looking for a caring facility that will help you recover from chronic back pain, an injury or accident. ”

“ I was in lots a of pain before I started therapy there at Fyzical Therapy and Balance Centers. I had twelve treatments there and with each treatment I could feel a huge difference in the range of motion. I couldn't lift my hands above my shoulder. By the time my treatments were over I had full range of motion. The Therapist and her staff were very helpful and attentive. I would recommend Fyzical Therapy to anyone who needs physical therapy. Thank you for all your help!

“ This is a wonderful place that I would recommend to anyone needing physical therapy. I have been here three times for various injuries; including my lower back, rotator cuff, and a rare type of cervical spinal fusion. I started at spooner first for my fusion because this is where my doctors office liked to use. I wish I had gone to them in the beginning instead because I would have improved sooner. Their therapist are far more knowledgeable then those I dealt with there. They will explain what they are doing and address all parts of the body that are affected, which many don't. From playing sports I've had three other times I've done physical therapy in the past. And, I have to say they're the best. They are also very kind and a fun group of ladies. So you will be in a relaxed and fun environment, even if you are in some pain. But this will help make doing all the exercises easier. ”

I’m back playing basketball, mountain biking and living life just like I was before either injury. Very professional and knowledgeable staff - Sandi was recommended to me by another friend who is also a PT - you really feel like you get personalized service versus big corporate-care. Highly recommend. ”

“ Greatest physical therapy I have ever experienced. Sandy has a magic touch and is a gifted therapist. Every issue I have seen Sandy for has been resolved. Her Myofascial release is effective -no comparison with the old fashioned physical therapy used by most clinics in Phoenix. Thank you Sandy for following your dream to really make a difference in the lives of people who are hurting. ”

“ I have been coming to see Sandi Salazar off and on for 5 years. She has helped me through chronic hip and back pain, a broken ankle, and vertigo. She is the first person, after 10 years of physical therapist and orthopedic surgeons and cortisone shots, that created a pain free life for me. This is not your average PT office. They perform myofacial release and work on balance and achieveable goals. They do not believe in the “knuckles of pain” solution, or “no pain no gain”. Gentle and knowledgeable. You won’t regret choosing this business. ”

“ I highly recommend FYZICAL to anyone seeking physical therapy that truly makes a difference! I came to FYZICAL after a total hip replacement in August 2018 and 10 sessions of "regular PT". I still had a lot of pain and discomfort and very limited range of motion in my new R hip, as well as my L hip, which had also been diagnosed as needing to be replaced. Then I heard about Myofascial Release and how owner Sandi Salazar's knowledge, skill and expertise in this modality of treatment had changed her patient's lives for the better! Sandi and her team (Molly, Kimberly & Mary) are dedicated and passionate about advancing their patient's health & wellness. I am so pleased and grateful for the progress I've experienced from Myofascial Release and exercises......markedly decreased pain and discomfort, increased range of motion, as well as increased strength, endurance, balance and stability. AND a return to things I enjoy..... like hiking with my husband. In addition to all of these benefits, I enjoyed and looked forward to going to my appointments. Sandi and her team are caring and compassionate, and the environment is upbeat and fun! You won't regret choosing FYZICAL! I certainly don't! . ”

“ I am a 70-year-old man who had a wonderful experience with two months of therapy prescribed by my orthopedic surgeon to alleviate pain and inflammation in my ankle and Achilles tendon. When I started I had little/no flexibilty in either ankle and I had a swollen, rock-hard and painful right Achlles. In addition, my balance was very unsteady. As of this morning I have very good flexibilty in my ankles, the swelling and hardness in my Achilles has been dramatically reduced and there is no pain in either the ankle or the tendon. My balance is also much improvedThe therapist I worked with most was Molly but three others stepped in when scheduling was a problem and they were great too. The entire staff has been friendly and professional throughout the process and I am grateful for the exclelence of their work. If I ever have another problem for which physical therapy could help Fyzical is where I will go. ”
