Physical Therapy in Columbia, SC for Athletes and Weekend Warriors
If you have a body, you're an athlete! At Salerno Sports Therapy, you always get one-on-one time with a Doctor of Physical Therapy for a full hour—something we will never compromise on. Whether you're dealing with pain or chasing performance goals, we've got your back.
Most physical therapy clinics rush you through cookie-cutter treatments with assistants while your therapist juggles three other patients. Hell no. You deserve better than that assembly-line BS that keeps you coming back without real progress.
Traditional PT is Doing You Dirty
-
15-Minute Mill Sessions
Getting bounced between different providers who don't know your story or your goals as an athlete.
-
Generic Exercise Sheets
Cookie-cutter protocols that ignore what you actually do—whether that's crushing PRs or chasing your kids around the yard.
-
Band-Aid Solutions
Treating symptoms instead of addressing why you're hurting in the first place, keeping you stuck in the pain cycle.
