    “Tanya and her team have helped my back pain go from constant/severe to almost completely gone. Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a PT office.”

    “Working EMS it takes a toll on your body. After hurting my knee years ago and seeing Dr. Dickson for PT I knew she was the best around. This past December I had spinal fusion due to a herniated disk. I started PT with Dr. Dickson a week after surgery. Not only did she help with the healing process and preventing scar tissue, she design the PT to help get me back to my job. After few weeks of sessions with her I was back to full duty and able to function back to full duty just like prior to my injury. She is caring, devoted, and will make the PT fit your lifestyle. There is no one else around that I trust or even would go to.”

    “This was my first time to Dickson Physical Therapy. I found out that a disc in my neck is my problem. Tanya gave me treatment at the office and ways to do the same at home. I feel better already and will be returning and referring others her way in the future. She is extremely knowledgeable and patient. Thank you.”
