Physical Therapy with a hands-on approach.

We all know the best part of PT is the massage.

At Mobility Physical Therapy, our Doctors of Physical Therapy use individualized and extensive manual therapy, or hands-on techniques, to allow you to experience greater mobility than you could ever achieve on your own. With our evidence-based exercises, you’ll be able to facilitate new movement patterns to maintain this mobility to notably improve your quality of life. 

Injured or not, you are welcome here.

Physical Therapy is not just for those who are injured, but can be a great preventative tool. We can determine imbalances throughout the body that lead to injury and treat them before they cause pain.

Carolyn Harper, PT, DPT, OMT

As a ultrarunner and lifelong dancer who has personally experienced the benefits of hands-on physical therapy, I am thrilled to be able to use my Doctorate of Physical Therapy and two year post-graduate Institute of Manual Therapy certification to help you unlock your mobility potential!

  • "I have only positive things to say about Carolyn Harper. In addition to helping me come back from my knee injury, she’s also an absolute delight and so so kind. I always felt comfortable sharing any symptoms I’d noticed and knew she’d listen and adjust my recovery plan accordingly, tailoring it to me so I could jump back into the activities that mattered the most to me as quickly as safely possible. She cares about her patients as more than just patients— she always checked in on how I was doing and remembered details I had shared from appointment to appointment. I really cannot recommend Carolyn enough as both a PT and a person."

  • "Carolyn Harper has helped treat my EDS for the past seven years. She continues to expand her knowledge on EDS and adjust my treatment plan according to my constantly changing symptoms. I’ve never had a physical therapist who wants to expand their knowledge to better my treatment. She is not only very knowledgeable but she is also incredibly compassionate. I look forward to my appointments knowing I leave noticing improvement."

    Michaela

  • "After nearly 2 years struggling with an ankle injury, I am finally able to run and play soccer again pain-free!! And I have to give a lot of credit to Carolyn Harper for all her hard work, helping me understand my injury and staying on course. Very knowledgeable and being a super-athlete herself it was a pleasure working with her. All around this place is inviting and they do some great work when needed most. "

    Alvaro

  • "After two complicated surgeries and stints with other practices that didn't get me where I wanted to be, I thought I was going to need to adjust to a life with chronic pain and modified activity. Carolyn got me back to running, cycling, and living with minimal pain. I got my whole life back!! Cannot recommend highly enough."

    Ella

  • "Carolyn is simply the best- as a PT and person! She is very knowledgeable and compassionate. I always felt like I was being heard- no matter how many questions I would ask. After a few months, I just played my first game back and felt great. Overall, I had a really great PT experience and would recommend anyone to see Carolyn."
