What Our Patients Say
Discover why patients choose Joe Norton Physical Therapy as their trusted PT clinic
"I love Kelly and this whole PT practice! Kelly spends a full hour with me. My tennis elbow and severe neck & shoulder pain are so much better. I love that they don’t only show you exercises. She also does massage, gentle manipulation and dry needling. I highly recommend them."

"Dr. Joe Norton and his team are total pros that develop treatment plans based on your lifestyle. I’d highly recommend to anyone! I live an extremely active lifestyle—lifting heavy, walking a lot, running and on my feet a lot as I teach fitness classes. I came to Joe with left hip pain, through Joe’s treatment plan, we improved my running form, gained more mobility in my hips and lower back and my pain is gone!"

"This practice and team (especially Luke) are unmatched! With Luke’s guidance, I am up and running stronger than ever before in a matter of weeks! I cannot thank him and the team enough. Getting back to running was imperative for my quality of life and I could not have done it without Joe Norton’s practice I will forever be grateful for what they have done for me."

"Luke was a fantastic PT, would absolutely recommend to any runner! I was managing some knee and hip flexor pain, and he helped me get through my race fully healthy and fit!"

"I'm thrilled to share my positive experience from working with Luke at Joe Norton, who played a pivotal role in my recovery from Achilles tendonitis. His expertise, personalized care, and dedication empowered me to not only overcome the injury but also achieve a remarkable milestone – running the New York City Marathon. I am deeply grateful for his support throughout this journey, and I wholeheartedly recommend Joe Norton to anyone in need of effective rehabilitation."
