Orthopedic Physical Therapy

About Orthopedic Physical Therapy

Orthopedic Physical Therapy is a physical therapy practice in Waterville, Maine, serving people with orthopedic problems, sports injuries, chronic pain, accident-related limitations, and recovery needs after surgery. The clinic describes its setting as family friendly and emphasizes individualized care rather than a one-size-fits-all program. At the first visit, patients receive an evaluation so the team can determine which therapy methods fit their situation. From there, treatment is built around one-on-one sessions focused on improving strength, confidence, range of motion, and everyday physical function. The website highlights care for sports injuries, chronic pain, and rehabilitation after total joint replacement, including recovery involving the shoulders, knees, hips, elbows, and wrists. It also notes support for people dealing with functional limitations and pain related to arthritis or traumatic injuries.

The practice outlines several treatment methods that may be part of care, depending on the patient’s needs. These include manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, neuromuscular re-education, kinesio taping, and recovery modalities such as ultrasound, electrical stimulation, low level laser therapy, and moist heat. The clinic also notes certification in the Graston Technique and access to a full on-site gym for supervised stretching and strengthening work. The team includes Amy Dyer, DPT, who earned both her master’s degree in physical therapy and doctoral degree in physical therapy from Husson University and has additional training in Graston Technique, vestibular rehabilitation, cupping, and women’s pelvic floor rehabilitation. Joshua Hunt, P.T., holds a master’s degree in physical therapy, founded Orthopedic Physical Therapy, and lists manual therapy and sports-related injuries among his main interests. Lindsay Beaulieu, PTA, adds experience across inpatient, outpatient, assisted living, and home health settings.
