Still have questions?

We're here to help you take the first step toward feeling like you again — and even better.

Your first visit is a comprehensive two-hour evaluation where we'll discuss your knee pain history, goals, and concerns. We'll perform a thorough movement assessment, strength testing, and functional screening to identify the root cause of your pain. You'll leave with a clear understanding of what's causing your symptoms and a personalized treatment plan designed specifically for your needs.


At Whole Health Solutions, you work one-on-one with your Doctor of Physical Therapy for the full 60 minutes—never an aide, PTA, or assistant. We also take a whole-body approach that goes beyond just treating your knee. We examine hip stability, ankle mobility, core strength, and lifestyle factors like nutrition, sleep, and stress to ensure lasting results. Our team coordinates care across physical therapy, strength training, and health coaching for comprehensive support.



We work with many insurance plans. Please contact our office at (978) 615-9121 to verify your specific coverage and discuss billing options. Our office manager, Kristy, is experienced in navigating insurance and will help answer your questions.



Recovery time varies depending on the condition, severity, and your goals. Some clients see significant improvement within 4-6 weeks, while post-surgical rehabilitation or chronic conditions may take 3-6 months. During your evaluation, we'll provide a realistic timeline based on your specific situation.



In many cases, yes. Physical therapy is often recommended as a first-line treatment for knee pain before considering surgery. Our comprehensive approach addresses biomechanics, strength deficits, and movement patterns that contribute to knee problems. We've helped many clients avoid surgery or significantly improve their symptoms through conservative care. However, some conditions do require surgical intervention—if that's the case, we'll guide you to the right specialist and provide excellent post-surgical rehabilitation.
