Does joint mobilization hurt?
Joint mobilization is designed to provide relief, not discomfort. You may feel mild soreness after a session, but this typically subsides quickly as mobility improves.

Dr. Ryan Spano is a kowledgeable and highly qualified professional physical therapist! His treatment and care of past injuries enabled me to return to my daily activities in no time! Since I was thoroughly pleased the first time, I insisted on receiving his care for the second time for my injured shoulder; Alpha Therapy gave me the assurance and confidence I needed to move forward!

I have seen Ryan for over 10 years due to a left shoulder injury. He literally helped me delay total replacment surgery in that timeframe. Ryan listens, and tailors therapy according to the individual. It is a journey taken together and he was with me from beginning to end. (Alpha/Omega) You can imagine that in those 10 years there had to be much encouragement, hope and healing. Encouragement that together, we could increase my mobility and therefore decrease pain back in 2014 on my first visit. Multiple visits followed, for tuneup, and each was filled with hope that we could reach the same results. And, late last year, when it became apparent that I would most benefit from total replacement surgery, I knew that he would be the best to prepare me pre-sugery and the one to help with healing post-surgery. I chose Ryan for this journey and I am so blessed that I did!
