WHAT PATIENTS ARE SAYING “Within a few months, I was able to get back in the weight room doing everything I had before the injury.” ANDY GOODE CL I N I C MANAGER ( V I STA ) , DPT Andy attended Idaho State University and graduated with a Doctorate in Physical Therapy. Andy grew up in Pocatello and recently moved back from Twin Falls after working there for three years. Andy enjoys working with orthopedic patients and those suffering from neurological conditions.

We offer Alter G treadmills in our clinics which are an excellent alternative to aquatic therapy right now, while gyms and pools are closed due to COVID-19. Alter-G allows patients to rehabilitate with less pain while reducing the risk of further injury. Great for athletes, orthopedic patients, people experiencing chronic pain, those suffering from neurological conditions and those looking to lose weight.
