We’re also asked whether there is a difference between therapy and rehabilitation so we answered that in one of our health tip blogs which you can read here: The Difference Between Sports Therapy and Sports Rehabilitation

Harrison E.

Started doing PT at PRO in April for some intense plantar fasciitis that I'd been experiencing for over a year and hadn't been able to remedy it on my own. Lily gave me a very effective Home Exercise Program to strengthen my arches & toes and did lots of great soft tissue / needle work in our weekly sessions. Two months later, my feet are feeling the strongest and most capable they've felt in a very long time and I can walk around & sleep without thinking about foot pain. I'd recommend PRO to anyone looking to deal with physical annoyances once and for all.

Jennie is always pleasant and so helpful with any and all of my questions which makes me feel safe to come to her with anything. Dr. Kelvyn is my PT and he has been great to work with so far. Dr. Kelvyn listens to my goals and I’m excited for him to keep pushing me towards my goals of PT.

I fractured 3 transverse spinal processes in November 2025 and had a C section baby 3 days later. I was in quite a bit of pain with very limited mobility, and about a month after the injury, started physical therapy to ensure I could heal well and run again. Dr. Lily helped me both heal and get my back moving again, as well as some pelvic floor exercises since even though I had a C section, I had pelvic floor pain after being pregnant. After a few months, we tapered off appointments and I have sucessfully been able to run, do yoga, lift weights, and return to normal daily life again with no pain! They were very conveniently located in NE Minneapolis near me, and had great scheduling availability. I'd go again!

Dr. Spahr and his team at PRO Therapy work together closely to provide state-of-the-art healing therapies that help people return to doing the activities they love best. The entire team, including the front office staff, exemplifies a model of care and professionalism that really stands out to me. I highly recommend PRO Therapy.

Had a great experience, they helped me recover from a calf injury I sustained during training for a half marathon. The stretching, exercises, and therapy they provided me helped me get back on track and I was able to run my race! Would recommend to any athlete!

Michelle P.

Exactly what I was looking for in a PT office. I really wanted one-on-one care that included massage/cupping and other therapies. Lily was amazing and my posture has literally never been better. Can’t recommend enough!

Stephanie D.

I'm so glad I went to PRO Therapy. They have great providers, great office staff. I've always felt like I was a person and they really cared.

Brooke is incredibly knowledgeable and personable. She listens and works with you and uses your experience and knowledge of yourself and your body as a guide to get great results. This has been the most collaborative PT experience I’ve ever had, in the best way possible. I can’t recommend her and PRO therapy enough.

Cooper B.

PRO Therapy has been awesome! I began visiting for help with managing my rheumatoid arthritis. Dr. Kelvyn is attentive and professional. The treatment portion of my visits provides effective recovery and the exercises and homework have helped me to improve my strength, mobility, and quality of life. I highly recommend PRO Therapy!
