We believe that through education, caring, and touch, improved health can be achieved. We simply use a hands-on approach to support and promote wellness.

Hand-N-Hand Therapy was founded in 1990 by Diane Stroud PT, Advanced Certified Rolfer® and Pamela Wood PT, LLCC (certified Lymphedema therapist). During our 28 years of experience in physical therapy and rolfing®, we have understood the body as a balanced structure leading itself to efficient and fluid movement patterns. When this balance is disrupted through physical or life stresses, a "dis-ease" of function may develop and ultimately manifest as annoying or even incapacitating symptoms.
As manual therapists we attempt to identify these imbalances,
provide the necessary reeducation, and enable the body to attain a greater state of health and comfort.

Our hands and eyes are our key tools, with our 2700 sq. ft. clinic supporting the following: individualized musculoskeletal evaluations, individualized hands-on physical therapy care in private treatment rooms, rolfing® sessions, lymphatic drainage technique "LDT", movement analysis, neuromuscular reeducation, tailored exercises, individualized gym programs, patient education and group classes.
Off-site aquatic programs are provided on an as needed basis. We
will happily coordinate your treatment program with any of your
other practitioners.

Diagnoses frequently treated by Hand-N-Hand physical therapists are ankle sprains; bursitis of the shoulder and hip; carpal tunnel syndrome; chondromalacia; cervical injury; degenerative joint dysfunction of the knee, shoulder and spine; edema; elbow tendonitis; fibromyalgia; fibromyositis; general deconditioning; hamstring strain; headache; impingement syndrome of the shoulder, wrist, hand and foot; knee dysfunction; lumbar disc/lower back problems; lymphatic dysfunction; lymphedema; muscle spasm; myofascial pain syndrome; neck strain; pelvic floor dysfunction; plantar fascitis; post surgical rehabilitation; reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD); repetitive stress injury (RSI); rotator cuff injury; shoulder impingement; spinal injury; tennis elbow; tendonitis, tenosynovitis, venous insufficiency and whiplash injuries.

We also provide wellness and fitness consultations, without a doctor's referral, to enhance your current level of health. Although these services are performed in a physical therapy clinic they typically are NOT reimbursed by private insurers.

Billing Policy:

We do not participate with private insurance companies, but will provide appropriate paperwork for your billing ease. Please note that our rates may exceed reasonable and customary charges for your insurer's fee schedule, so we suggest you inquire with your company. Our Medicare certification has been approved and we are currently a participating provider.

We strongly urge clients to personally verify all physical therapy coverage with their insurance company prior to the first visit. Pre-certification is often necessary and may require documented phone or fax correspondence from this office.
