Joint Effort Physical Therapy

Joint Effort Physical Therapy has specialized in spine care for the past twelve years in the valley. The director, Gary Smith P.T., began to focus on spine treatment from the beginning of his career fifteen years ago.

Joint Effort utilizes approaches from many different spine experts to effectively treat all types of spine conditions. We begin by decreasing pain levels and increasing function. We proceed by teaching patients to understand their back problem and promote self management.

At Joint Effort, we enable patients to become independent when discharged from our care.

Enjoy life again.

There is no reason to live with pain.
