The folks at Active Lifestyles Physical Therapy in Sandy have a fantastic team and have been a tremendous resource for me. After an injury to my hip, Chris Harper and his team went to work to help me recover. They’ve done a great job. Chris Harper is an expert in physical therapy. He has demonstrated great knowledge and an understanding of how things in the body should work and what to do when they don’t. I liked his patience, sense of humor and his simple, straightforward explanations regarding what I needed to do to recover from my injury. Active Lifestyles had the tools, the team, and the expertise to help me get back on my feet. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
Chris Harper who is my Physical Therapist and his staff are “Miracle Workers” who have improved my well-being. Since the moment I met them all, I have gone from a man who could barely walk because of pain to one that walks close to 3 miles a day. I still can’t run, but give them time and I will! Thanks
Christopher of Active Lifestyles Therapy, is simply a very knowledgeable practitioner in his field of physical therapy, a “magician” to say the least, who has an answer for any and all that ails me. If only I could devote myself to the instructions as he devotes himself to his practice! His staff follows his excellence to provide the best therapy I’ve ever had even though others have also done well.
Recommended to me by my podiatrist, recommended by me to four other family members! Chris and his crew are great to work with. Flexible with our schedules; accurate, timely billing; great explanation of treatment plan.
Chris Harper and his staff (Jake & Kelsey) are a great team of professionals. Chris is passionate about his profession and very knowledgeable. He kept me going for several months waiting for neck fusion surgery. He was always honest and upfront with me, never trying to “cure” my problems. Instead, he made it possible for me to work and function pretty normally within the scope of his profession. I always felt like Chris, Jake, and Kelsey truly cared about me, and they never once made me feel like they didn’t have adequate time for me that day. I am truly grateful for their help and care, and most of all, I trust them completely for any future needs I may have.
Throughout my life I have been a patient at many Physical Therapy Clinics. Active Lifestyles is the best Physical Therapy Clinic I have attended. The staff is always friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I have suffered with back pain for over 20 years. Dr. Harper solved the problem I came in with, (my hip) as well as fixing a twenty-year-old back issue. Dr. Harper's knowledge is vast and amazing. His explanations of underlying problems gave me complete understanding of the treatments and exercises necessary for my recovery. I highly recommend Active Lifestyles to anyone seeking an outstanding Physical Therapist.
