Therapy South was founded in July 2006 by Steve Foster, PT. His vision was that Therapy South would be a therapist-owned practice, specializing in "hands-on care, close to patient's home or work". Clinics placed in Central Alabama, Auburn and Athens, GA maintain an informal atmosphere that helps patients feel at home in their surroundings. Having 20 locations, allows patients to conveniently attend physical therapy two to three times per week to improve their daily functions. We know our patients names when they walk in the door of our clinics!
Clinical excellence is the foundation of our successful patient outcomes. Many of our therapists have advanced certification in orthopedic physical therapy, as well as other specialty areas including manual therapy, women's health, orthotics and hand therapy/occupational therapy.
Hundreds of physicians in Alabama and Georgia trust Therapy South to care for their patients each day. We work with physicians, families, employers and insurance companies to ensure the best care possible for every patient

                                           Manual Therapy

Mobilization is the skilled passive movement to a joint and/or related soft tissues performed to relieve pain and increase mobility. Manipulation is also skilled passive movement to a joint, similar to mobilization, but it is performed more quickly. Manipulation is often associated with an audible 'pop'. Both mobilizations and manipulations are performed by the physical therapist to improve joint range of motion and relieve pain. Each patient will be evaluated for the appropriate manual therapy techniques for their dysfunction. We combine a caring touch with skilled techniques to reduce pain and increase mobility. Many of our therapists carry certifications in manual therapy/strength and conditioning/athletics, or are board-certified in orthopedics.
