Only one in 10 were able to correctly complete a female reproductive [...]

Considerations After a C-Section & When to Get Help! The c-section scar is a specific type of scar that is very familiar to many American moms (statistically about 30%), yet it doesn’t get a lot of attention. Our c-section scars will continue to tighten and change over time, regardless of how old they are, and tight scars can create a whole host of problems. Some women with c-section scars can go for years without having any problems but will notice [...]

We all know of people in our lives who are “double jointed”. It’s a fun party trick for school aged kids, being able to bend arms and fingers in an unnatural way. But as we age, hypermobility, which is excessive movement in the joints, isn't so fun and can cause pain and dysfunction especially in the spine, hips, and pelvic floor. Hypermobility Hypermobility is often a genetic issue within the collagen of the connective tissue, otherwise known as fascia. The [...]

Misconceptions of Concussion Over the last decade, there has been a surge in media coverage on concussions. Every major news network has aired a story on prevalence of concussion in children or the crippling effects of CTE Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE) in former NFL players.

The body is really a phenomenal system that has the unique ability to completely rebuild our tissues when we get injured, biologically stitching our wounds back together. It’s quite amazing! The special cells that lay down the collagen to create a scar do a fantastic job of closing the body off from the unforgiving world. The problem is that the collagen fibers don’t get laid down in a very organized fashion (think of a string of Christmas lights that mysteriously [...]

I had an excellent experience working with Melissa Baudo for a tennis-related injury. From the beginning, she developed a detailed, personalized treatment plan that was both effective and easy to follow. She took the time to understand my goals and structured each phase of therapy to help me steadily regain strength, mobility, and confidence on the court. What stood out most was her expertise and ability to progress my treatment at the right pace, continually adjusting the plan based on my improvement. She was knowledgeable, encouraging, and always focused on helping me return safely to the activities I enjoy. Thanks to her guidance and dedication, I was able to make significant progress and get back to playing tennis with confidence. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced physical therapist who is committed to helping patients achieve their goals and return to the activities they love.

I went on 6/15 for my intake visit for treatment with the Neubie device. My therapist was Lance, who explained things thoroughly about the device and discussed my course of treatment. He was great and I look forward to working with him. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful as well.

The Team at One on One PT is excellent! Dr. Ballis ascertained exact target points and got to work. I experienced immediate relief and improved mobility on the first session. With feedback the second session was even more improved. This team is helping to restore me to levels I have not experienced in years. I cannot recommend this Team enough. I will continue to use them even for maintenance to help keep me on track to my goals.
