When Dr. Carrie Jose grew frustrated with a healthcare system that prioritized insurance companies over people, she built something better.
At CJ Physical Therapy & Pilates, we combine specialized physical therapy, Pilates-based rehabilitation, and regenerative therapy (Shockwave Therapy) to help you move better, heal naturally, and stay active for the long haul. Every treatment is delivered by a team that takes the time to truly understand your goals, because your health, your future, and your quality of life matter.
No cookie-cutter programs, no rushed appointments, no insurance company calling the shots. Just expert, one-on-one care designed specifically for you and what your body needs.
One-on-one care from movement specialists who actually take the time to figure out what's causing your pain, and build a plan to fix it for good. No cookie-cutter programs. No rushing you out the door.
When standard treatment hasn't worked, Shockwave and EMTT therapy give your body the boost it needs to heal itself. Non-invasive, fast sessions designed for stubborn injuries that just won't quit.
Build strength, improve mobility, and actually understand how your body moves. Our Pilates program is led by specialists with physical therapy training you won't find anywhere else.
