Welcome to Thrive Physical Therapy Serving Greater Rochester

Exceptional Outpatient Physical Therapy from the Comfort of Home

Welcome to Thrive Physical Therapy!

We are a team of knowledgeable and experienced physical therapists who offer outpatient physical therapy services in the comfort of your own home.

Our skilled professionals will visit you at home (anywhere in Greater Rochester) for your physical therapy sessions, so there’s no need to worry about rides to and from an office or factoring a commute into your busy schedule – don’t even get us started on navigating roads in bad weather! Let us take that stress off your shoulders and bring exceptional physical therapists to you.

We are so happy you’ve taken time out of your day to visit us online. Because we don’t have a traditional clinic, our website is a little like a virtual practice, so we hope you feel welcome here and find good information about what we have to offer you. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have questions or want to learn more. We’re here for you!

How Can We Help You?

Our Physical Therapy Services

Our physical therapy practice is a little different from what many people expect. We don’t work out of a sterile clinic or a busy gym. Instead, we bring skilled physical therapists to you with outpatient, in-home physical therapy. Our in-home sessions typically last about an hour, and our knowledgeable professionals will customize these sessions to help you maximize your time with us and achieve your goals. We also offer fitness programs, exercise classes, and Parkinson’s and neuro-specific rehabilitation plans.

Outpatient Physical Therapy in Your Home

We bring the powerful impact of physical therapy to your home for increased convenience that makes it easier to maintain consistent sessions and achieve your goals. Our licensed physical therapists are truly committed to helping aging adults to stay active and continue doing all the things they love. Whether you’re recovering from an injury or surgery or you’ve been diagnosed with a neurological condition, like Parkinson’s disease or stroke, rehabilitation plans with a physical therapist can help.

Thrive for Life – Senior Fitness Program

Our knowledgeable physical therapists also offer a range of fitness and exercise programs to help clients maintain the results of physical therapy and stay healthy and active at any stage of life. From walks with your grandkids to next weekend’s hike or round of golf, we can help you keep moving.

Exercise & Fitness Classes & Group Programs

We love working with local organizations and seniors in our communities to provide exercise and fitness programming for groups. We prefer to keep our exercise classes and group programs small, so we can offer individual attention to each participant. Whether you’re a facility coordinator looking to offer programs for residents or an individual interested in creating a community group to be a part of, scheduling an exercise class brings together groups in your community to learn exercise habits and encourage each other to stay active.

Specialists in Physical Therapy for Parkinson’s Disease

We have physical therapists on our team with advanced training in helping those with Parkinson’s disease to achieve their movement goals and minimize the effects of this neurological condition. Like all of our physical therapy services, we will customize your rehabilitation plan to meet your unique needs while integrating up-to-date research, and Parkinson’s-specific programs, including LSVT BIG and Parkinson’s Wellness Recovery (PWR!).

Get Started Today

By bringing outpatient physical therapy services to your home, we make it easy for you to stay on top of your physical therapy program and achieve the goal we’re working toward together – living a thriving life today and in the future.

Why Our Clients Love Us

What a delight to work with Ashley and gain guidance and encouragement from her expertise. Upon my initial diagnosis, I searched for a PT in the Rochester area that could assist me in putting together an exercise program to help me maintain my health and independence. I’m so glad that I found Thrive Physical Therapy and contacted them.
Walter Fleming

Marketing Director at Junk Food Co

Ashley is absolutely wonderful. She motivates her clients to go the extra mile. One of the advantages is that she comes to your home . I am so happy with the results that I have attained only working with her for 10 sessions. I highly recommend her to anyone.

Joan Fyfe

CEO at Clear Thinking

Ashley is an enthusiastic physical therapist. In seven sessions she has helped me significantly deal with the effects of Parkinson’s. Each session was different working to improve various bodily movements, such as balance, endurance and performing more than one task simultaniously. I would highly recommend Ashley to anyone suffering from Parkinson’s. She is highly skilled in her knowledge and in her ability to work with her clients.
