Debunking Myths
Do I really need therapy 3x’s a week?
Probably not. Therapists often recommend 2-3 visits per week. They frequently tell patients, “well your doctor ordered that, so you must need it”. One visit per week or less is almost always enough to get the results you want. Fewer visits, less cost and time, and excellent results

Customer Reviews
-Lori ‘LP,MD’
I have never before written a review of any product or business, but because Ed Scott's skill is truly beyond compare, feel an obligation to share. I had hip pain that impacted most aspects of my day-to-day life -- getting in/out of a car, putting on my shoes/socks, walking my dog, sleeping. After just 2 visits with Ed, I walked out of his office moving like I was 10 years younger. I am so fortunate I now carry out those everyday activities without pain at the forefront. Ed Scott is a true master of his profession. His training, experience, and dedication to lifelong learning have given him the ability (highly sought but rarely found) to effectively and efficiently analyze musculoskeletal issues and develop treatment strategies that get results.
“I had been having pain in my right shoulder for about a year.
I had been doing some weight training about a year ago and had no discomfort during the workout but the next day I had shoulder discomfort which persisted and worsened.
An orthopedic surgeon diagnosed my issue as an AC joint problem, and he recommended surgery.
I saw Ed Scott on May 14, 2019 primarily because I wanted to avoid surgery. He told me the AC joint was not the problem, and that some stiffness in the GH (main shoulder, ball and socket joint) seemed to be the primary issue, and surgery was not necessary and would not fix my problem.
He did some manual therapy and had me do one stretching exercise.
I had immediate improvement in motion with less pain. I did the stretching exercise and returned in a week, reporting that I was much better. He modified my home program and advise if I had problems after a week or two to call for an appointment.
I haven’t had to make that call.
I would highly recommend you see Dr. Scott before any recommended surgery, unless it is an emergency.”
