What’s your business, and who are your customers?

PRO Therapy is a physical therapy clinic dedicated to YOU with our primary goal of getting YOU back to enjoying the tasks and activities you’ve had stripped away from you because of back, knee, shoulder, neck, hip, or ankle/foot pain. We treat a wide variety of patients with a wide variety of ailments. We pride ourselves on educating our patients and beyond on the world of physical therapy. What it is, how it’s beneficial, and giving you all the information you need to make the best decision in your rehabilitation journey.

Tell us about yourself

My wife, Liz Spahr, and I started the PRO Therapy journey together in 2016. At the time, I had been treating in different settings since completing my doctoral degree in graduate school in 2008. I was quickly reminded about everything I loved within the world of Physical Therapy. But, also just how different the experience for patients could be based on the setting and parameters in place by each clinic. In some cases, it wasn’t about the patient. It was about how many were in and how many were out. I wanted more for those being treated, and knowing we could give that…. we opened our first clinic in June 2016 in Northeast Minneapolis, MN. In 2017, we opened our second location in Coon Rapids, MN. By November 2019, we upgraded into our current Northeast clinic location! We now have four Doctors of Physical Therapy as well as a Client Care Specialist – with further team growth in the works!

It’s so important to allow the space for our patients to be heard, understood, and educated by our entire team along their PT journey with us at PRO Therapy. What keeps us motivated? The consistent stories of success we hear from our patients. There is nothing better than hearing directly from our patients they’ve received an outcome or experience they’d been searching for, for too long.

What’s your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

Our team! PRO’s growth and success are a reflection of the commitment our team makes daily to the patient experience.

What’s one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

Finding work/life balance. Our commitment is 24/7 to our patients and our team, so we really have to make a conscious effort to find the same balance we encourage our team to have.

What are the top tips you’d give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

1. Embrace the challenges.

2. Surround yourself with a team that has the same commitment to your business’s goals and values.

3. Engage in groups that push you out of your comfort zone for further growth.

Is there anything else you’d like to share?

We offer complimentary phone conversations and in-person discovery visits with our Doctors of Physical Therapy!

Physical Therapy With PRO Therapy

At PRO Therapy you will always experience precise, caring, and one on one care from a Licensed Doctor of Physical Therapy – no tech aides, no rehab assistants, no personal trainers – to help you decrease pain by the time you walk out the door of your first session and create a plan to adhere to going forward.

If you want to make physical therapy a success, partnering with one of our Doctors of Physical Therapy is going to help you avoid future pain and resolve current pain.

We Love to Help People:

  • Keep Active – So you can run after your kids all day, take your grandchildren to the park with ease, enjoy a nice round of golf, run or walk anytime that suits you.
  • Stay Free From Painkillers – So you’re not always reaching in the cupboard for pills to ease the pain whenever it strikes, getting only a “quick fix” when you need a “permanent fix” – PLUS they’re no good for your long-term health, “mask” the pain and certainly don’t actually do anything to fix the problem.
  • Avoid Dangerous Injections/Surgery – We’ll help you get to the root cause of what’s going on – so you don’t have to get to the point of having to face injections or surgery.
  • Found Out What’s Wrong – We’ll help give you peace of mind and ensure that your problem is “corrected” and “healed” properly – also give you a set of exercises perfectly catered to you to help speed up recovery.
  • Get More Enjoyment Out Of Life – So you can enjoy quality time with family and friends that your daily aches and pains steal from you – also finally get a good night of sleep without constantly tossing and turning.

Great place!

I had a great experience at PRO therapy. It’s a great mix of body work and exercise. It isn’t “a printout of your exercises and come back in two weeks” place. You do all the exercises in the gym with them each session so you know the correct form and how to do them on your own. I have really improved in my strength and my day to day pain has significantly reduced over my time there. My main PT was Dr. Kelvyn and he was great to work with. Very supportive and encouraging. He met me where I was at and didn’t make me feel bad if I couldn’t complete something. If I wanted to be seen but couldn’t get onto his schedule, I saw one of the other PTs and they were all equally great. It was seamless to work with someone else for the day. Jen and the other front desk staff were always very friendly and very helpful. I would highly recommend getting your physical therapy done here.

I worked with Dr. Kelvyn here for over a year and a half on multiple lower body injuries (ankle, knee, hip, lower back). He is the best physical therapist I’ve ever worked with, and unfortunately I’ve had the misfortune of working with a lot of PTs in my lifetime. I appreciated that he really listened to what I was coming in and describing feeling to him each session, and then he tailored the exercises we did together and the exercises he prescribed to do at home based on what I reported at the beginning of our session. He also did a good job of adjusting my at home exercises to my needs and preferences. Can’t recommend Dr. Kelvyn or PRO Therapy enough!

Great recovery from neck and shoulder focus! Thank you for care!!
Christine S.
My experience with Grace was wonderful. I saw her for pelvic floor therapy and some general physical therapy and hip mobility. She listened very well to my concerns, was very educational and helped me understand why I was doing the exercises I was doing. I would highly recommend Grace and Pro Therapy.
Timothy M.
Grace helped me strengthen my core to the point where my back feels so much better. She gave me excercises that I can do at home that don't require gym equipment.

Since my treatment, pain and mobility have greatly improved. Very appreciative of all the help.
Linda S.
I had two different doctors working with me and both were very good. They listen, have you try different moves, and are able to proceed to plan.

Excellent place with great people. Go to this place.
Dr. Lily met me where I was (post a major surgery and really weak - like barely able to stand/walk) with respect and accommodation. I was always challenged but at a safe pace. It took me a few months to see it, but they were working on the long game all the time and it paid off. I'm really happy with my recovery.

*p.s. - Don't be intimidated by the super hulk weight machines. I kinda was but almost nobody uses those. They utilize all sorts of un-intimidating equipment. Also, the location seems odd at first but it turns out to be very convenient.

I'll go back if I ever need more PT. 100%
