"In the past….almost two years….I have managed to fracture my wrist in a fall and, as if that wasn’t enough, I tore the meniscus in my left knee. After getting a prescription for PT, I turned, of course, to GROSCHAN for help. I have been a patient of that practice on a number of occasions….herniated disc, etc., so there was no doubt about where I would go for treatment. For both of the most recent problems I have been treated by Cindy Hoerl and she has been terrific, and that is not an exaggeration. In addition to excellent treatment and remarkable results, she is patient, extremely knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor. I feel lucky to have had her as my therapist. Also, my experience is that everyone at this practice is top notch, and that includes the staff as well as the therapists. Would not go anywhere else. My humble and true opinion!"

"I have degenerating lumbar spinal issues that have made it impossible for me to walk any distance or stand, and it's been going on for more than a year. Once primary care got some test results, they sent me to Gorschan & Associates. The person that answered the phone put me at ease and scheduled all 8 of my prescribed appointments right away. She got me the appointment time I wanted (7 AM). Cindy Hoerl was my PT. She listened to me, pretty quickly had a good idea of what I knew, and worked within my knowledge to start the treatment. In my case, it was demonstration/instruction then me trying each exercise. The very first day she gave me some stuff to do to strengthen and tighten my core. It immediately took the pressure off my spine and gave me relief. Each visit, we added more to list of things to do. Cindy was very good at observing, and identifying each time I wasn't in perfect form. It was obvious how much the form made a difference. I also learned how important it is to keep up with the exercises. After the eight visits, I feel SO much better. I can walk now, and stand about 20 times longer than I could before. I highly recommend this practice."

"I did physical therapy with Groschan & Associates ten years ago, regarding a knee injury that was limiting my hiking. Jim Groschan and his associates provided treatment and strengthening exercises that worked so well, I can no longer remember which knee was injured. I'm still doing the exercises, and I'm leaving tomorrow for 3 weeks of hiking in the Southern Alps of New Zealand. I truly credit Groschan and Associates with the fact that I'm fully able to hike at age 73. I'm very grateful."

"Three months ago I had a total knee replacement. Groschan & Associates was recommended to me for my physical therapy. Melissa Blank was assigned to my case, and she is awesome! I met with her a couple times a week, and Melissa made what could have been a dreadful experience, much more tolerable. I would recommend Melissa to my friends and family!"

"I have been going to Cindy for the past few months for a TMJ issue. I have never suffered with this problem before and this was really uncomfortable. Cindy taught me several tricks with positioning my head when sitting and watching TV as well as reading or using iPad. The massage, heat and exercise in the office has definitely helped and I feel I feel I am over the crisis! I have always felt Groschan and Associates is a great office. Everyone is friendly, kind, and always there to help."

"Jim Groschan has been my go-to PT for the past 15 years. He saw me through years of running injuries and always had me ready to go by my next race. A major rotator cuff rehab resulted in mobility that was ultimately better than it was before the injury. And his education and guidance during a recent knee injury unfortunately can’t fix the problem but has resulted in minimal medication and maximum usage with no pain. The office staff is wonderful and totally accommodating. PT is not something you look forward to needing but it is so nice to know that when you do need them Groschan and Associates are there for you!"

"Cindy Hoerl is not only a dedicated and highly skilled Physical Therapist, but also one of the most caring and compassionate people I know. She's soft spoken, extremely patient and is hands-on from beginning to the end. I had a total knee replacement in early October and by the end of December, I was walking on my own with no problems and no longer in need of further physical therapy. Her enthusiasm and approach to exercise are what I truly credit with my speedy recovery, as well as resuming a normal life earlier than I ever thought possible. She's the best! "

"I am no stranger to shoulder issues. First rotator cuff repair (left) 2010, second rotator cuff repair (right) 2016. I had physical therapy elsewhere and eventually was able to return to normal activities, including my hobby playing golf within 6 months. With passage of time, pain returned, and my surgeon recommended physical therapy as a conservative route to eliminate the pain and lack of motion. Enter Jim Groschan upon a strong recommendation. After a couple months of therapy, Jim had me back on the golf course with an improved swing from a better posture. Jim watched me swing and corrected posture issues and shoulder position which may have caused all the problems in the first place. (He did such a great job, the first day he allowed a full swing I went out to play and got a Hole in One.) Back to playing 3-4 times a week I went on an away trip. Returning home at the airport, I made a stupid turn and lifted my luggage. Another tear which proved to be the end of my rotator cuff. Reverse Total Shoulder Replacement and again back to the therapist golf guru Jim Groschen. I am back to playing again with a better swing and pain free thanks to the care of Jim Groschan. He has knowledge of the body parts and their functions, especially for a golf swing. He has a caring personality to get you through hard stuff and a passion for the same thing as I, golf. The combination I find is just perfect."

"When I was experiencing extremely uncomfortable back pain of uncertain origin, my primary care physician recommended PT at Groschan & Associates. After just a couple of sessions with Jim, the back pain subsided and eventually went away. Jim was able to quickly diagnose what was causing the pain and then worked with me to improve my movements and awareness of what I needed to do to keep that back pain away. So far, so good! Jim showed me some effective exercises, which I can do regularly at home. After a rough summer, I am experiencing a much happier, pain-free autumn. Everyone at Groschan & Associates was extremely friendly and helpful. Thank you, Jim and all!"

"I was experiencing tingling and numbness in my shoulder and arm. These were symptoms from neck issues . My orthopedic surgeon recommended physical therapy. I was very fortunate to be scheduled with Cindy. Each visit she worked on certain areas of my neck and back. Cindy gave her full attention to trying to help me at each visit. The tingling totally went away in one arm and I’m hopeful with the exercises she gave me the rest will resolve as well. Aside from her expert care, Cindy is always upbeat, sweet , thoughtful and a pleasure . I highly recommend her!! The office has separate private rooms and Sarah at the desk is great at scheduling and keeping appointments running on time. Thank you !"

"Four years ago I had a full knee replacement of my left knee. Though I went through PT and was released I was never comfortable with the range of motion achieved. Two years after the replacement I returned to my surgeon and asked if PT could help with the stiffness I felt and limited range of motion. He told me NO. Well thankfully, Groschan & Associates has proven him wrong. I had the pleasure of working primarily with Cindy, who is a consummate professional. She is so knowledgeable and always understood exactly what I was experiencing and addressing it in a way that I could understand. With her clear guidance I was able to understand exactly what was happening with my body and work on my own between visits. I felt like we were a team and we made great progress. Cindy also had me work with Emily, who did dry needling and cupping on me. These were new therapies to me and extremely successful. Emily was also wonderful to work with, knowledgeable, articulate, professional and kind. I cannot say enough good things about my experience at Groschan. I enthusiastically recommend them without reservation."

"I went to Jim after a recurrence of a knee problem. In this practice, I found that the patient is not handed off to a trainee, but has the full attention of the therapist for the entire session. Furthermore, unlike many (most?) centers, Jim doesn't rely on a "one size fits all" regimen of exercises. Rather, he concentrates on teaching his patients how to adjust the range of daily motions to strengthen weakened areas of the body. The patient can then follow through at home without just a list of canned exercises. Altogether an exceptionally professional practice. I continue to benefit from his recommendations."

"Jim Groschan was a delight to work with. Recently had some issues with neck and shoulder pain. Jim guided me through exercises and lifestyle changes to assist in relieving my pain. During treatment I encountered an additional issue with my back. He figured out the problem very quickly and I was able to get complete relief from that. I would highly recommend this PT practice to anyone in need."

"In March of this year (2023) my wife and I found ourselves in Baltimore for a month. Both of us were dealing with various muscular issues. In seeking help we were referred to Groschan and Associates by my wife’s sister. We each were treated by Jim Goschan over the span one month. We left each appointment feeling like our issues were being addressed along with follow up techniques that we could practice. Jim was very understanding of our situation and more than willing to listen to our concerns. We are now back home and the issues he addressed for us are a things of the past. We also would like to thank and complement his staff for making sure we were able to be seen within the time constraints we faced, their kind and professional handling of our needs was exceptional.

"I have just completed a very successful course of physical therapy with Jim Groschan, following a knee replacement. In his practice model, one therapist spends the full treatment period with the patient, and is the therapist for succeeding appointments. This affords a totally individualized program, as well as the ability to address any physical or emotional issues that may be affecting progress. In my experience, this practice is unique and I highly recommend their work."

"Getting older stinks! I typically try to avoid seeing doctors and just hope the problem goes away. After months of non-stop shoulder pain, I went to Groschan and Associates and was diagnosed with a rotator cuff injury. After just a couple of treatments and sound advice to focus on posture and exercises, I was feeling better! Today was my last session and I am pleased to say I have not experienced any pain for the last several weeks. Big thanks to Jim and his team for their amazing treatments and guidance (and early morning conversation). I am sure going to miss those weekly shoulder massages! "

"A friend of mine had hip replacement surgery and took PT from Groschan and Associates. He spoke so highly of Jim Groschan and Melissa Blank, his therapists, that I decided to use the practice when my doctor recommended PT for my hip problems. From my first appointment, I was impressed with the professionalism of the front office staff to the therapists. I had the services of both Jim and Melissa at different times for my sessions. They evaluated my walking, sitting, etc. in order to provide appropriate and consistent treatment. I decided to get a second Orthopedic opinion on my hip. Jim encouraged me to do so and I mentioned who I would be seeing. Jim indicated he knew the doctor and reached out to the Orthopedic doctor to share his observations since they at times have worked closely to benefit their client/patient. In closing, I can’t thank the Groschan and Associates team enough for their treatment. Based on my condition, I have no doubt I will need their services in the future. JSGoldman"

"I came to Groschan & Associates with a torn rotator cuff and could not raise my arm or even take my wallet out of my pocket without severe pain. Melissa Blank examined me, analyzed the CAT Scan report, and laid out a course of treatment.So as to not increase the inflammation and pain, she gradually introduced new exercises with ever increasing weight. If I could not tolerate an exercise, she substituted another so that I continued to make progress. Her gradual approach kept me motivated by allowing me to feel reduced pain and increased range of motion. Thanks to her, I have normal range of motion and can hold my 6 month old grandchild in my arms without pain."

"Unrelenting severe pain in my lower back and leg from an undefined athletic injury had completely immobilized me and drove me to Groschan and Associates (GA) for physical therapy and, hopefully, some relief. At GA, I found a staff that was highly knowledgeable, personable, experienced, patient, caring, and good at listening. GA not only administered excellent physical therapy to address a sacroiliac problem but also wisely encouraged me to pursue further diagnostic and treatment options from medical experts at a spine clinic. After facilitating an appointment for me with the spine clinic, GA modified my physical therapy routine to address spinal problems that had been detected by MRI and, later, to support the spine clinic’s pain mitigation treatments as well. At my last physical therapy appointment, I had progressed remarkably to 95% of full recovery. I walked away from GA fortified with a battery of stretching and strengthening exercises that would help me make a complete recovery and, also, play a safer game of golf. I could not have wished for or have received a better experience with physical therapy than the one I had at GA. Walt K."

"As a practicing dentist for over 10 years I have had a few back aches from time to time...Comes along with the territory. However, about two years ago I began experiencing lower back pain to the point where it became almost constant. After just living with and doing nothing about it, it was time to address it. I have known Jim for over 8 years. He is a warm, likable guy....Very easy to get long with. I was also fully aware of his excellent reputation. I was able to get in right away and had my consultation with Jim. It lasted a full hour in which I received his undivided attention. I remember it very well because In this day and age of medicine, this is (sadly) rare. My next visit was with Jim’s daughter Emily. Just like her father, she is warm, friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. Between those two visits, I had a diagnosis and a plan...More importantly, one I could fully understand (they took their time and made sure I did). From here we went to work: First twice a week and then down to once as things improved. All told, it was about two months of therapy and while difficult at times, especially in the beginning, I enjoyed the sessions and even looked forward to them. In addition to the incredible on-site treatment, Emily provided me with at home exercises - Introducing them one at a time as to not to overwhelm me (to the point where I might quit keeping up). Their importance paramount, she stressed. Because of this, I have become more accountable - Taking better care of myself and I even developed a routine at home to keep me in line. I have been completely pain free and truly now realize what it is like to really feel good. I would also like to mention that their office manager Sarah is fantastic as well. If you are having any physical ailments, you will not find a better care anywhere else. I would recommend Groschan PT and Associates without hesitation. Chris Stuzynski"

"I wanted to let you know my progress 5 months out from partial knee replacement surgery. Trying to be a good consumer, I did a great deal of research prior to my surgery. Without exception, every piece of information I reviewed indicated that post-surgery Physical Therapy (PT) is the most important component to successful outcomes. The PT group associated with the surgical group was not going to be able to have me begin PT until 5-6 days post surgery! I expressed this concern to my surgeon who put me in touch with Jim at Groschan & Associates Physical Therapy. I feel extremely fortunate to have made that connection! Even though my therapy was self-pay (due to my medical plan), it was worth every penny. I have had previous PT experiences that were much less helpful than the PT I received with Groschan. In those previous situations, I would meet with the therapist for about 10 minutes and then they would take me off to a machine, flex bands, or some other device and after showing me what to do, let me just work on my own. With Jim and company, I was never ‘on my own’ working an exercise. Each new building block of exercises was built on previous sessions, completely explained, and I was observed every step of the way. Refinements were made where needed and the therapists made sure I was doing everything correctly. Initial sessions were 3 times per week and then gradually scaled back. I ‘graduated’ from PT 2 months after surgery and continue to work on the exercises I was given. My progress is excellent and just went on a hilly 5 mile hike yesterday with no problems. I’m convinced that while the surgery was important, the follow-up PT was really the key to getting my knee back in shape. Thanks to all the folks at Groschan & Associates! Bob Hood"

"I had shoulder surgery at the end of 2019 and went to Groschan & Associates based on the recommendation of my orthopedic surgeon. It was a great recommendation. When you read through all the reviews you’ll see all of the positive comments about the private rooms, friendly and caring staff/environment, etc., (which are all very true), but there were several other things that stood out for me. Jim showed incredible dedication to his patients during my rehab. He could have easily closed shop when the pandemic hit and his business dropped significantly. Instead, he made sure that patients, like me, were able to continue on with their rehab. Also, when Jim was not available, the other physical therapists (Cindy, Emily and Sarah) stepped right in to make sure I did not miss a treatment. They were superb about setting expectations for my recovery and were spot on as to when I would hit certain milestones. I am very appreciative for all that they have done for me and highly recommend them to everyone I know (including my wife who unfortunately fell and broke her wrist and needed PT)."

"I started going to Groschan & Associates for a major flare up of back issues at the beginning of the Covid pandemic. Groschan was highly recommended by my neurosurgeon's office. Not to go into too much detail, but the combination of in-person PT with Emily plus exercises at home allowed me to get my life back! Emily is great and the entire office feels like family. I highly recommend Groschan & Associates for anyone needing physical therapy."

I liked started the sessions with a Q/A about my progress and exercises. It made me feel like she was listening and could pinpoint any adjustments to the treatments. Friendly and every experienced. Thank you!"

"This treatment has kept me off the operating table. I have arthritis in my spine (who doesn't?) and a vulnerability from a previous surgery for a cyst on my spinal cord. When I arrived Melissa found me in constant pain from my back down to my great toe. Walking was tough and stairs were loathsome. I was not comfortable sitting, standing or lying down. She taught me about good posture and gave me exercises to strengthen the muscles that support that part of my back. She helped me figure out the things that maintained the pain and methods to prevent it. I bought gel seat pads and ice packs. I got rid of a piece of furniture that could not be amended so it wouldn't hurt. I even went so far as to replace my car (the car seat was not amenable to change) and discovered that if you knew what to look for, you could find a car seat that supports properly. Now, I am for the most part pain free. There are twinges now and then and there are times I overdo. But I am learning about my new capacities and I have the tools to help myself out of difficulties. Next to breathing, this has been the best thing I've done for myself. Melissa helped me see I did not have to accept the situation since I'm 'old." Keep your appointments; listen; learn and do the exercises. You will be better for it and grateful as well as I am."

"My sciatic pain started at the beginning of the COVID 19 pandemic and it was quite severe. I was not comfortable starting physical therapy in person because of the pandemic and was referred to Grocshen PT because they offered PT by telehealth. I was amazed at how much can be accomplished using this method especially with a therapist as highly skilled as Jim Groschen. Jim listened and observed very carefully, assessed the problem, taught me the exercises I needed to strengthen weak muscles, provided feedback and encouragement, and addressed a number of intervening related problems during the course of my treatment. He was very patient and knowledgeable and always focused on the details of function . I learned how to incorporate the principles of movement he taught me into my daily routine which was of great benefit. I am delighted to say that I am now very happily pain free. I would highly recommend this practice, and Jim Groschan as a therapist. Thank you, Jim. Anita L."

Cindy knows just what to do as well as what my home regimen should be to continue making progress.

"Read the reviews and see how glowing they are. After being treated for half a year by Sarah Blanchard, who has a doctorate in PT, I am not surprised. I have long had an excellent primary care physician, and when she recommended Groschan and Associates for my back problems I had every reason to believe she knew what she was doing. My high expectations were exceeded! This practice and its personnel are most impressive. Everyone, including the receptionists, is nice and friendly in a low-key manner. The ambience is relaxed and informal, but homey, unlike a sweaty gym. The therapists are all experts. I have benefited greatly from Sarah's expertise and insight into my aged back's aches and pains, which at times were severely disabling. She listens closely and compassionately. Then she draws on her encyclopedic knowledge of the body to address each problem. While stretching and messaging, she engages in friendly, unforced conversation that helps make each visit not only a boost to one's morale and mood, but a pleasant social interlude. Once, her sister Emily substituted for Sarah, and she was just as proficient and pleasant--and no wonder, they are identical twins. As for logistics, the location is easy and safe to get to, as it is just off both the beltway and the Jones Falls Expressway and has ample parking. I now tell all my friends, don't wait if you have physical problems--go to PT, and Groschan is the perfect choice. I am finishing up my PT this month and am in much improved condition, able now to move about easily with little discomfort. But I will continue my home stretches and exercises to prevent relapsing. I should have listened to friends and gone to PT sooner, but was resigned to enduring what I assumed--wrongly--was not a treatable condition at my advanced age. Happily, Sarah showed that it was treatable, and my quality of life has much improved accordingly."

Our very professionally accomplished and personally caring therapist, Sarah, worked with each of us over a course of several weeks. She gave me the confidence I needed to use my new hip and to improve my gait in general. Her knowledge of the involved nerves, joints and muscles was impressive, and most helpful to me. My wife shared this same appreciation as Sarah’s therapeutic treatments went on. Both of us learned from Sarah the importance of good posture and it’s importance to healthy body structure.

"I would highly recommend Groschan and Associates to anyone needing physical therapy after shoulder surgery. I began seeing Jim Groschan a couple of weeks after arthroscopic surgery on my left shoulder. At that time the range of motion in my left shoulder was extremely limited. Through ultrasound, massage and stretching, I slowly but surely regained motion. As much as the on site physical treatment was important, Jim‘s positive attitude and cheerful manner gave me hope, even when meaningful progress was not so obvious, that improvement would occur. With a combination of regular sessions at Groschan & Associates and the home stretching regimen recommended by Jim, I was able to regain almost all of my motion in my left shoulder that I had before I began having symptoms. I would say that the combination of surgery and therapy at Groschan & Associates has been highly successful. I can now sleep on my left side without pain, play golf and do all of the activities I could do before I began having shoulder pain. A true success story! "

"I'm 67 years old. Forty-four years ago, I went skiing with rental skis and when I fell on an icy hill, my right ski failed to come off. I suffered a compound fracture with my tibia and fibula both breaking just above my ankle. After 2 surgeries, I was in a cast for 6 months and on crutches for 9 months. The doctor told me I would never run again and always walk with a limp. I decided to go to a foot specialist and see if I could do anything to retain motion and flexibility. He strongly suggested I go to Groschan & Associates to have therapy done. He highly recommended therapist Melissa Blank, who spent two months working on my foot, helping me learn new exercises to increase flexibility. She was incredibly patient and encouraging, explaining how the exercises would bring back abilities I was afraid I had lost. After waiting 44 years, I thought it was too late. But Melissa was able to wake up the muscles and exercise them, allowing my leg muscles to respond in a positive fashion.. I feel incredibly lucky that I was able to have someone so devoted, knowledgeable, and determined work on my ankle. Thanks to Melissa's skill, I almost feel like I have a whole new leg. She is an incredible therapist, I am lucky that she was able to bring back abilities I feared I had lost. "

After rotator cuff surgery I was told by all that if things worked well I would get back about 85% of my arm usage. Thanks to Jim I am at 100%. His hard work with me and encouragement made the difference. A year ago I was diagnosed with another rotator cuff needing surgery. I ask Dr. Segalman, "how about therapy ?". He said why not try. If can't hurt. The result - After working with JIm again, I don't even know that I have a rotator cuff problem. No pain what so ever. Of course I don't do "radical" movements. However, I am 100% fine. Another "Jim job greatly done".Now recently I developed pains in another shoulder and went to Jim as usual. Results - pain is gone.I fell on my left knee and was in severe pain until I went to see my friend Jim. Here I am now back to myself.To sum it all up. Jim is the greatest. If you have a problem he is the man to see. He does things other therapists can't come close to. Above all, he is a wonderful person. Very professional, caring, encouraging, kind, and patient. We have become friends over the years and I always look forward to the sessions as I really enjoy seeing "my friend" Jim. A great "professional" and a wonderful person in general. By the way his daughter Sara who subs for him with me when his schedule doesn't work out is a true credit to her father. Very nice, caring, and above all really "knows her stuff". To sum it all up you can't go wrong with Groschan & Assoc. You will lose out if you have needs and don't use them. They are "the best". Best of all, wonderful high class human beings.

"I have been a competitive golfer my entire adult life but over the past 14 months, I had been very limited by pain. After working with Jim Groschan, I really improved. He taught me how to control my posture with golf. The focus on exercise and posture principles made a huge difference and gave me much more control over my pain. So I entered The Baltimore Senior Match Play Championship and I won! This is a USGA sanctioned tournament. It's actually my first real tournament since my injury. It feels pretty good considering I could not swing a club at all last year. "

"My wife and I have both been to Groschan and Associates in the past several years and have been very pleased with the results. I have had bursitis in my left shoulder on two occasions - very painful to sleep at night in particular. Jim worked with me for six weeks or so and completely resolved the problem - I can sleep again. His in office treatment plan was excellent and he provided me with good in-home exercises to strengthen my shoulder. My wife had hip bursitis and saw Cindy for a number weeks with the problem being completely resolved. Cindy and Jim not only are excellent therapists but also have extremely pleasant and friendly personalities that make the process really easy."

"I have been going to Jim Groschan for over 2 years and he has changed my life. The problems that I had he solved for me. He gave and taught me new ways to alleviate my pain by very simple exercises and very simple tools. I have learned some many different way to improve my issue. I have also recommended Jim and his other physical therapists to friends with issues to go to his office. I truly am one of the lucky ones that was recommended to come here. I no longer need his services but if any problem returns I will certainly come back for help."

"Sarah is the absolute best! I had extreme pain in my lower back that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy, I couldn't even sit - standing was the only relief I had until I met Sarah. After my first visit, I knew I had gone to the right physical therapy office. She is kind, caring, personal and most of all, a fabulous therapist! I am 100% pain free in less than a month. I hope I never have that much pain again, but if I do.... I'll be calling Sarah :)"

"I've been going to Jim and his team for my physical therapy needs for years now: ACL surgery, back pain, foot surgery. Where other therapists focus on just the body part that's in trouble, Jim develops a whole-body solution to bring your body back to functioning normally. The exercises and drills he uses are designed around sound bio-mechanics and natural movements, not artificially contrived exercises on machines. I'm very happy with the results of our work together."

With the help of Melissa I cut that time period in half. In just 4 months I am back playing tennis as good as ever (maybe even better). The secret to success is doing exactly what you are instructed, not more, not less. Ron M"

"When I had a compression fracture in my back, my doctor recommended Groschan & Associates. I was assigned to Emily. I did what she told me to do and I got a LOT better. A whole lot better. I'm 75 so I'm not sure what can be reasonably expected, but I'm extremely grateful for Emily's conscientious, sympathetic encouragement. She gave me a lot to think about in terms of recovery. I'm very, very pleased about the time I spent with her. "

"I recently experienced pain in my lower back that just wouldn't resolve itself. My doctor recommended physical therapy so I thought that I would give Groschan & Associates a try. Never having had physical therapy before, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. The staff at Groschan is friendly, welcoming, and professional. Emily Groschan, my physical therapist, is truly amazing. She has a wide-ranging knowledge of techniques and therapies and was able to bring my back problem to a successful resolution in seven sessions. Besides working one on one with me during my appointments, Emily also provided me with an exercise regimen designed to improve flexibility, strength, and posture. You may think me crazy but I found myself looking forward to my PT appointments with Emily because I knew that I would emerge afterward feeling better than when I went in. One of the qualities that sets Groschan & Associates apart is that they take the time to listen to what you have to say and then provide an individual evaluation and therapy plan. They even examine things that most people would take for granted such as posture and gait. If you should find yourself in need of physical therapy, I would highly recommend that you consult with the staff at Groschan & Associates."

I never wait for my appointment and the physical therapist is always right on time. Each time Jim Groschan has worked with me, he has been able to quickly diagnose the area of my pain. Jim has an amazing ability to teach his patients how to improve posture, exercise properly, and demonstrate strengthening exercises which each time resolve the pain. Plus, Jim has a great personality and makes it all seem fun!! "

"Over the years, I have been a patient of Jim Groschan for various orthopedic problems. About ten years ago, I had a frozen shoulder, which was extremely painful. After working with Jim and his associates, the pain went away and I was able to regain full motion of my arm. Four years ago, I broke my shoulder and was unable to move my arm after being in a sling for a month. Once again, I regained full motion of my arm after working with Jim. I know several people who have broken their shoulders and not one of them has the range of motion that I have. Most recently, I sprained my ankle. Again, I went to Jim and he was able to eliminate the pain. Not only is Jim an excellent practitioner, he is also caring, friendly, and punctual. Most importantly, he patiently teaches his patients what they need to do to correct the problem. He leads by example. As a result, his staff treats the patients in the same courteous and caring manner that Jim models. I have and will continue to highly recommend Jim and his practice to my friends and family. Ann S.

Dr. Gordon said Jim was absolutely "the best" and I believe her. His assessment of my issue was very thorough, and I was impressed with his vast knowledge and attention to detail. Jim cured the issue and educated me about what had caused it, and what I could do to help prevent another incident. I am back to working out as often as I can and completely pain free. It is also comforting to know that if anything like that ever happens again, I know exactly where to go!"

"Jim was perfect for me. I was looking for a multi-year slow fix to my persistent back problems, not a one week miracle or wonder shot. Jim explained to me how my muscles and skeleton work together. He pointed out the destructive habits I’ve formed over 30 years and taught me better ways to stand, sit, and walk. I am nearly four months removed from my first session and am confident I am on a good trajectory for the coming years. My 7 sessions were well-worth the price and I will continue to work visits into my preventative health routine. Thanks Jim and team."

When the orthopedist prescribed physical therapy, my wife pointed me in the right direction. I was concerned about restoring a range of motion but, importantly, I didn't want my golf game to suffer too much. Jim fully understood both issues and addressed them in a thorough and professional manner. It is now 4 months since the injury. I'm happy to say that that the range of motion in my shoulder is almost fully restored and I can play golf without pain. if anything, I've picked up a couple of yards with my driver."

"I was fortunate, my wife had been to Jim because of a hip replacement and said I had to see him. I saw Jim both prior to and following bilateral knee replacement at age 70. Jim’s more than my PT guy, he is my advocate and coach. We worked on exercises that strengthen my knees prior to the surgery so that I would be in better condition for PT following the surgery, about 5 weeks of prep. Following surgery, we focused on doing things right/correctly/proper form; relearning how to walk properly, doing steps up and down correctly, as well as getting up from a sitting position, many new routines were provided for at home practice, as well as, continuing my strength training. I am told that I may be one of the exceptions as I was walking without a cane once I went home, 6 days after surgery; I am able to go up and down steps confidently; riding a stationary bike for 20 minutes or so at a time, as well as, walking 3 miles daily, weather permitting, as it is winter time and I hate cold weather. I am almost 2 months out of surgery and continuing to improve daily; not leaps and bounds, but small, noticeable, incremental improvement. On Friday I had my 2 month checkup with my surgeon, Dr. Brian Mulliken, he said I was 4 to 6 weeks ahead of schedule on my recovery. I highly recommend Jim Groschan and Associates; everyone there are the best!"

Jim Goschan's approach to work on your posture even when you don't realize that could be part of your problem is most effective.

"WHY WOULD I DRIVE 60 MILES FROM HARRISBURG PA FOR BACK PAIN? Besides being very professional and experienced Groschan & Associates approaches PT differently. I had previously used a large PT firm in York PA but they did the typical stuff with weights on pulleys and other equipment which I had to go there or a gym to do. INSTEAD, Groschan focuses on posture and the correct ways to do everyday activities of daily living since these are the things we do many, many times daily. This is what I call the Groschan difference. And doing these everyday activities incorrectly are what gets your body in trouble. JUST ONE EXAMPLE. It is so important to properly get out of a chair. You are thinking huh how can that be? That’s what I thought too but how wrong I was. Remember this is something you do many times a day so it is important to do it properly. And I can virtually guarantee you that no one gets out of a chair properly without this training. This one technique will save so much wear and tear on your back/body over the years and these good habits will become second nature and will serve you well now and as your body ages. You will be so glad you learned all of the Groschan valued tools. They give you exercises to support your posture and everyday activities. None of the exercises I was given involved any equipment. They all can be done at home which makes it so easy. And they can also manually adjust your body if it is out of alignment but nothing like a chiropractor. No cracking or crunching of bones. It is all gentle movements. Their ULTIMATE GOAL is to give you these life tools so that once you learn all of their techniques & exercises you should never have to see them again! And that saves you money and valuable time! Do yourself a big favor and contact Groschan & Associates."

Unlike so many other PT centers, Groschan & Associates therapists give one-on-one treatment the entire time, meaning no wasted time waiting for someone to come to you.

Most important was what Jim taught me about my body, the importance of my posture, and how I can make decisions to keep myself physically strong and healthy.

It is worth the 20-mile drive for me to learn from Jim Groschan about the structural reasons causing my muscle issues, to be listened to and treated as an intelligent patient, and to have practical exercises that are not just healing but strengthening my back muscles. The office staff is flexible and they cheerfully find appointment's that fit my schedule. When I finish I will not only be healed but will be educated to keep my muscles strong."

Hello Groschan & Associates,

I thought I might send you an update on me as one of your former patients. From July 2005-February 2006 I was being treated there by Melissa Blank. I have been very thankful for the work Melissa did with me to get me back on my feet after my ACL reconstruction surgery.

Since you all cleared me to get back into my normal athletic activities, I have been able to play basketball, softball, baseball and football. And most recently, this past weekend I finished the Charlotte Thunder Road Marathon.

I know that none of this would have been possible without the work I had done there, so I just wanted to say Thank You once again. I have attached a picture of me finishing the race. I think my smile says it all.

Thank you again.

“Jim Groschan is the best in Physical Therapy. He has a deep working knowledge of the complexities associated with physical therapy and combined with years of practical patient experience; there is no one else who can compare. Jim has a sensible approach to therapy and an easy manner to comfort those in discomfort.

As a PGA Instructor, I also admire that he understands the specific mechanics associated with the golf swing and how he helps his students improve physically for better golf. By improving his client’s physical limitations, I have seen his patients play not only pain free, but better than ever. I should know, I’ve been a patient of his for years. Besides all of these wonderful qualities, it is a pleasure to be in his enthusiastic and helpful company.”

“I was referred to Jim Groschan for Physical Therapy August 2008 after I dislocated my left hip. I had my hip replaced in March 2005. The dislocation occurred while taking a golf lesson, a sport I really enjoy.

Before meeting Jim I was very discouraged about my ability to recover as well as I had from my initial surgery. Having additional surgery or physical therapy were the options presented to me at the time of the accident. I chose physical therapy.

After the first meeting with Jim Groschan to discuss my situation, I left his office full of hope that I would be OK and possibly stronger than ever. With each session I grew more confident in my abilities to live life as before. Jim always gave me a ‘take away.’ His therapy made sense to me and I could put things together. My confidence soared, I am back playing golf, and can be easily accomplish all the activities of daily living that I want to or have to do.

I am very grateful to Jim and appreciate his theory and techniques that are broad and yet specifically designed for each patient to maximize their own abilities and achieve their specific goals.

I highly recommend Jim Groschan to anyone in need of Physical Therapy. He is a knowledgeable professional with a down to earth personality and approach. I am very grateful for what he has helped me accomplish.”

“I came to Jim for physical therapy after I had back surgery. He did his best to help me but realized after some time had passed that his efforts were not enough. After listening to me and tracking my lack of progress he suspected that I had an instability in my spine and suggested that I may need a second surgery on my back. I followed his advise and sought the opinion of a different surgeon. I had a second back surgery and am so much better because of it. Instead of endlessly bringing me in for appointments to no avail he was honest, compassionate and used his expertise to guide me in getting the care I really needed. He continues to advise and care for me through my rehabilitation.

Jim is not only an outstanding physical therapist but he recognizes that pain can be mentally challenging and addresses that as well. He is kind, thoughtful and always willing to listen. I am very grateful and would highly recommend him to anyone seeking physical therapy.”
