I can't speak highly enough of Steven at the Southern Pines location of Breakthrough Physical Therapy. In a roughly three-week regimen, he helped me improve back pain which had been plaguing me for literally years post-military. In our very first session he identified the root of the issue, which had been misdiagnosed previously by other clinics, and provided effective PT exercises that had a real impact. I feel that I made more progress with him in three weeks than I had made in months to years of PT elsewhere. I strongly recommend him if you are suffering from misalignment and pain.

I had a wonderful experience at Breakthrough Physical Therapy on Pinehurst Ave. For starters...Mollie the one who seems to organize everything coming and going is super nice and helpful. Considering she is frequently answering questions to someone on the phone while someone else is standing in front of her checking in or out also asking questions, she handles it all with grace and a smile. They also have an on-line check in and scheduling station for those comfortable with using it, It's quite simple and very convenient.
I can''t say enough about my therapist Chris Rain. He is knowledgable, personable, persistent, and patient. His gentle pushing me to places i didn't think I needed to go was insanely helpful. I started there because of a knee issue but it was soon apparent the knee issue was minor compared to some balance and fall risk issues. Chris concentrated both on strengthening my leg, glute and core muscles as well as my ability to balance.
A super plus for for me was the use of Medbridge app for the exercises. I had used it before when recovering from other surgery. It shows you the exercises in your program, prods you daily to do them, helps you count through them and you can watch a video of each one so you never forget what you're supposed to do....leaves little excuses not to do them!!
I was actually quite sad when it was my last day.
If you are looking for a careful, caring, complete PT program this is your place.
PS: they always have a bowl of mints at the front desk.

Jenn and Janie were super helpful in supporting me to achieve my optimal range of motion and physical performance. They went back to the basics with techniques including breathing and physical adjustments, to help me regain some of the mobility I had lost. They broke down movements one by one and helped me understand both the how and the why of each exercise. Highly recommend BreakThrough PT of Southern Pines!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! I had a great experience receiving pelvic floor therapy here. Mollie at the front desk was absolutely amazing and always helped schedule me, checked me in, managed my referal, etc. She went above and beyond in her customer service and always made me feel welcome! Jennifer was also amazing and very knowledgeable. She always helped me to understand exactly what was going on and utilized many tools to help me make a mind muscle connection, and finally Janie was absolutely phenomenal! She not only provided amazing care every single visit, but her personality is absolutely amazing, and she made every single visit an enjoyable experience. She really worked with me where I was at and was always super helpful and kind! If you are looking for a good place for PT this is it! 🙂

Break Through Physical Therapy is abolutely superb! I have had excellent care and advice with positive results from Steven and Jainie as well as Chris and Dan with Break Through Golf over the last couple of years. I am almost 72 years old now. Three years ago my mobility, strength, and balance was limited in several areas. My handicap was 15, Driver distance was 200 yds and I hit lots of shots offline. I had to allow at least 24 hours between golf days to recover from pain. Now, through the excellent care and advice from the BPT/BTG team my handicap is 11, Driver distance is 220 with significantly more accurate shots. I can now play golf consecutive days without pain. Thank you team for helping me live heathier, happier and play better golf!

I’ve been going to Breakthrough Physical Therapy for the past 3 years, and I cannot recommend it enough. I worked with Steven, and throughout my time there, I addressed a variety of issues. The most amazing part of my experience was the use of the Postural Restoration Institute (PRI) method, which is the only type of physical therapy that has made me pain-free after 17 years of struggling with pain.
PRI takes a truly holistic approach, viewing the body as a complete system instead of just focusing on the part that hurts. Steven’s expertise and the methods used at this clinic have been transformative. I am so grateful for the relief and progress I’ve made, and I cannot say enough about how incredible PRI is and how effective the practice has been. If you’re looking for a comprehensive solution to your pain, this is the place to go!

I have had the best experience at Breakthrough! Jennifer provided exceptional care for me postpartum. I was apprehensive at first on what benefit pelvic floor therapy would have towards my health, but it was truly a game changer. Jennifer is a wealth of knowledge, and her focus and attention to my needs each session was the best. I highly recommend for any pregnant or postpartum moms!

I am so thankful for Breakthrough PT, especially for Steven. This has been the best Physical Therapy journey I’ve ever experienced. I have scoliosis and my whole life I’ve suffered from chronic back and neck pain. I’ve seen other physical therapists in the past, I also went to several different doctors each differing in speciality but none has ever helped as much as Steven. The first day I walked in, I complained about my chronic back pain due to my scoliosis (later I discovered the roots of the pain were different) I also remember having a lot of neck pain and I was generally unable to stand for long periods of time, or sit without being in pain. I used to spend hours lying on a heating pad in pain. Steven gave me an assessment head to toe and patiently worked with me. His care and love for patients is unmatched. He truly listens to your concerns, and I guarantee you that he will exhaust every resource to help you feel better. He is compassionate and so dang knowledgeable. Thanks to him my overall quality of life has significantly improved. I have not used a heating pad in almost a year. They are a gem, and I’m so thankful for this clinic.

Chris Rain has helped me reach a goal much quicker than I expected. I am now walking daily and doing my homework without pain. He explains each exercise and how they will get me back to walking correctly. He and the office staff are helpful and professional.

I am beyond thankful for the staff at BreakThrough PT! Whenever I had a visit I was always greeted with a smile by all the staff. When I brought my toddler to an appointment, everyone was patient and understanding with us both. I walked in for my first appointment in a tremendous amount of pain, but am walking out of my last appointment today pain free! Thank you BreakThrough!

I just finished and “graduated “ my PT sessions. I worked with Steven Blair over the last few months and he has been simply amazing. He knows his stuff and I couldn’t recommend him enough! When I started my lower back pain was very bad!! After a lot of exercises I can incorporate in everyday and other things he did, I am now in way less pain! Highly recommend seeing Steven!

I was having problems with pain in my hamstring and glute on my left side. This had been an ongoing issue for several years that would flare up, get fixed by the chiropractor, and be fine again for several months. This year, it became a constant pain that could not be fixed by the chiropractor or massage, as before. I am a very active person, and it was getting very discouraging to be unable to do even normal life without pain. Jen had helped a couple of friends with knee pain that kept them from running, so I thought I would give Breakthrough Physical Therapy a try. Jen figured out it was related to a pelvis misalignment and started me on a program to get the muscles re-trained and hold the pelvis in its proper position. She got me back in alignment within 3 months, with exercises to maintain and pull out if the pain started to twinge again. Jen, thanks so much for getting me back to running without pain!!!

Jen is the best. She took me on as a client knowing I had chronic physical problems from head to toe and re- engineered my entire body. Her skills, dedication and inspiration allowed me to overcome chronic pain and limited function in my neck, shoulder, TMJ , ankles and back. I am very grateful to her for excellent care.If you are having problems like I did, don’t wait! Call Jen today. You will be glad you did.

I had a great experience at this facility! My physical therapist was Steven, and he helped me so much. I had brain surgery in January which left my right side motor function greatly affected. Steven helped restore my postural alignment. He also is trained in a certain type of therapy that help the fluids of the brain flow where they need to and he can manipulate the brain to function in sync. He gave me techniques that helped with decreasing my over stimulation that helped decrease my post surgery seizures. With the help of Steven I now feel way more in tune with both sides of my body, more coordinated, and less over stimulated. If you are looking for a physical therapy center that will learn you as an individual and not just categorize you with the masses, design a plan that is specific to what you need, and take care of you, this is the place to go! 🙂
Shout out to Steven! You're the best!!
