Physical Therapy Now - PT Now

This is a small excellent practice. Darren and his staff are professional, knowledgeable, welcoming and caring. After a thorough evaluation a personalized care plan with options was suggested. Over the last 8 years I experienced 2 frozen shoulders occurring about 2 years apart. After seeing PT offered by a large health care system in the area, then doing things on my own, I wanted to see if I would ever regain more range of motion than what I was experiencing. My doctor suggested this practice and I am grateful! After a few sessions I tried Dry Needling and was amazed at the outcome after a few sessions! Darren is an outstanding skilled therapist. And, and due to the small setting I was able to witness Tyler's practice with his patients as well. I would recommend him as well.
There is a professional, collaborative approach at this practice.
The office staff are friendly and responsive. It's a great atmosphere.

PT NOW has been a life changer! Darren(Owner) and Tyler and staff are by far some of the best people I’ve ever met. Having had a long history of pain in my hip, they seem to have gotten to the core of my problem. They are professional, knowledgeable,
& clearly know what they are doing. They have given me the ability to walk again, and exercise. The dry needling has been a game changer. Darren knows what he’s doing! The expert advice he has given me, and I follow has been so beneficial. I highly recommend PTNOW.

I have been going to Darren now for several months. In the past I have seen several different Physical Therapists for a variety of issues. What makes Pt Now different is the atmosphere of caring. You are not just a number when you go there. Having been to several other Physical Therapists in the past, I always felt like I was just a number. I would go in, they would give me a few exercises to do, and I would be out in 20 minutes. That is not the case with PT Now. From my first visit, I felt welcomed and that the staff really cared about my well being. Darren took time to listen to my concerns and developed a program to help me achieve my goal of pain reduction. Within several visits, my pain levels were greatly reduced. Darren's approach to my problems was like no other I have experienced at other clinics. Each of my sessions are a minimum of one hour and therapies are changed to address how I am feeling that day. I have been extremely impressed with the care I have received and will be a loyal customer/patient for all my PT needs. I highly recommend everyone with PT needs to call Darren and give him a try. You won't be disappointed!!!!

I absolutely love this place! The staff is so friendly and helpful! I started coming a few weeks ago and in that short time, I am walking and moving better than I did when I was a teenager and I am in my mid forties You definitely get out what you put in, but they make it so much easier to put in the effort when they walk you through the process and encourage you to take care of yourself! Being a person of size, I tend to be sensitive about my weight, but they are not judgy or pushy, just kind and helpful!
I have mostly worked with Tyler, but Darren has come in and assisted me a well. Allana(sp?) is such a friendly cheerful person, she is a a wonderful person to greet you first thing in the morning!

Great job alll around! I appreciate you all very much!

I’ve had the pleasure to not only be a patient at PT Now but also a former employee. As a former PT technician with aspirations of becoming a physical therapist myself this was a excellent environment to work and learn in. The Physical Therapist’s are extremely knowledgeable and take their time in their approach to fully understand each patient needs and therapy goals. As a student being able to observe the physical therapist work up close, there was always an emphasis on research based practices and a thorough consistent use of the scientific method to assess and address physical issues. I am currently a patient with PT Now at the moment and the experience from this perspective is excellent as well. As a patient you are listened to and always informed on what your treatment plan will be and why you are being treated in that fashion. Most importantly to me the therapist here empower you with awareness, knowledge, and the proper at home exercises to help you confidently recover while providing support when needed. I’ll always speak highly of this small business and the wonderful things I’ve seen them do for myself and others. At PT Now you are not treated as just a number but as a individual with a dire need and the attention to care here reflects just that.

My experience with PT Now was great. Darren did a thorough examination and created a plan that actually worked. It was nice to have an accurate diagnosis and therapy that alleviated my pain. The facility is small and provides quality care you don’t see very often. You don’t feel like just a number. Each appointment started on time and you are greeted with a smile. All the staff members are warm and welcoming. I will recommend this office to anyone in need of physical therapy.

I had pain in my foot and after a few simple tests, my PT, Darren B. told me it was an issue with my back and suggested, in addition to PT I consider an epidural injection. After going to the orthopedic doctor and telling them about my acute foot pain, they X-rayed my foot and told me it was plantar fasciitis. I relayed what my PT said regarding the foot pain being related to my back and told them I've had long-term chronic back pain. They MRI'd my back and found a bulging disc. and suggested I get the epidural injection. I specifically asked the doctor if this will help my foot pain and he said no, but it will help your back. After the injection, guess what pain got significantly better - that's right, MY FOOT. I can now walk without wincing in pain. I continue doing PT exercises to maintain and strengthen my back and core so this doesn't reoccur. Darren was spot on from the beginning. When I told him he was right over the doctor, he wanted no grandiose credit, he was just happy I felt better. If you need physical therapy, DO NOT settle for a cookie cutter clinic, go see Darren B.

I have been taking my 15 year old son here for about 6 weeks and every single experience has been most pleasant. Dr. Beilstein and his staff are very attentive, competent, efficient, and genuinely care about the wellbeing of their patients. My son and I highly recommend this physical therapy practice.

My husband Rodney has had issues with his back that included muscle spasms and stiffness. He has seen doctors for this and was always given medication that just masked the issue. He then saw Darren at PT Now with a prescription for needling. Darren (the PT) said he could give him needling but suggested finding out the route of the problem. Darren found the problem and treated him with neck tractions, laser massage therapy and massage. Rodney feels so much better now and appreciates the attention he received when he was there (unlike other PT businesses that are franchised). He feels like he got better service with Darren, who has over 30 years experience and owns the company. Darren worked with him for each treatment and didn't leave his side. Rodney highly recommends PT Now.

After getting cortisone shots, working with another physical therapist, and seeing no results, I tried physical therapy now. I've had a great reduction in pain/burning in my shoulder since working with PT Now. Outside of the results I've seen, all the staff at PT Now are friendly, professional and helpful. I'd highly recommend them to anyone

I went to PT Now in the fall of 2013 for knee scope recovery PT. I was SO impressed with the staff that even now, 7 years later I still use techniques they taught me to maintain my knee strength. I was welcomed to each session and treated with respect and kindness on harder days. We didn't ever have the same session twice, and they used multiple techniques. Of course I am biased and enjoyed the massage and cold treatments more, but they also made me push hard to fully recover in the healthiest way possible.

I recovered right on schedule (let's say, 1/4 of that is genetics & DEFINITELY the rest was PT Now). I maintained my strength because of PT Now and would highly recommend them to someone for any sort of PT. Kudos and thanks for the great care!

I have been to a lot of physical therapist due to different sport injuries and it was always the same song and dance. Go in do some exercises and go home until the next, they never worked for me. When I hurt my right shoulder in 2018, I was sent to physical therapy with no results. In 2021 while playing softball the injury return. My doctor referred me to PT NOW. I was skeptical at first, when I got there Darren gave me a head to evaluation and came up with a plan to heal my should. That's something that I have never had done before. After going through therapy, Darren and his staff had me back on the field and to this day I have not experienced any pain in my shoulder. The staff friendly,personable and knowledgeable. I highly recommend PT NOW to everyone in pain.

My mother and I highly recommend PT Now! I have been taking my mom to PT Now for several months, once or twice a week due to an ankle injury and leg issue. The staff both at the front desk (primarily Kat) and the physical therapist,Tyler, were exceptional! They were friendly, courteous, and professional. Kat always greeted us, asked if we would like any water, and got us scheduled for the next appointment efficiently. Tyler was kind to my mother and really listened to her. (And she can be very difficult in medical offices, to say the least) She really liked him and responded to him. He was flexible in his demeanor and adjusted to her personality to accommodate it. Special kudos to Tyler. Mom will soon be getting a knee replacement most likely and we will be sure to use PT Now for follow-up physical therapy afterwards. PT Now was recommended to us by a friend of ours who has gone there for many years after a variety of aches and pains related to sports and aging. She has always seen Darren and raves about him as well. Great place for physical therapy! Leanne Crist

My mother has been receiving therapy at this location for a few weeks. She was being treated for back pain which has significantly decreased while having treatment here and w/ orthopedic doctors. My mom is elderly and has some difficulty understanding instructions. The staff at PT Now were very kind and patient when working with her. I highly recommend them for PT services. Update Apr 13 2022 - Tyler was my mom therapist. He was excellent. He helped improve my mom quality of life.

Great clinic! Therapists are very knowledgeable about a variety of different ailments. Whatever your goals may be PT now will get you back on track. I cant brag enough about the service and care that this practice provides. Thank you!

This is a small practice, but don’t let that fool you. They’re all they promise and more!

I’ve had two spinal surgeries in 7 years, the most recent in 2020. I hunted for a new physical therapist in April 2021 as I was still in pain after going to a different physical therapist (Aug-Dec of 2020) and steroid injections were not helping.

I highly recommend this practice to anyone in pain. I was evaluated by Darren and worked with him a bit, but I primarily have been seen by Kevin. He is honest, straight forward, and extremely knowledgeable. I leave his treatment table in no pain - no more injections or pain meds for me after the first few weeks! I trust his advice and recommendations, which I can’t say for every doctor or physical therapist I’ve been treated by.

You are given the time and attention that you need at every appointment. Their staff is amazing (Kasey gets an extra gold star ⭐ ), and I’m always treated with respect and like family. Thank you, PT Now!

Had an excellent experience with PTNow. From Kat at front desk, to Tyler PT, to Darren the owner, PTNow is an outstanding treatment facility and a very friendly and welcoming outfit. Tyler is a great PT and was a big help to me. Over a series of weeks, he introduced me to a number of effective measures and left me with a good plan for my continued improvement at home. Thanks to you all at PTNow.

Best PT in Newport News. They truly listen to find the source of your pain and create customized treatments based on your unique circumstances. I have been in and out of PT for over 25 years and these guys are SO much better than the standard list of exercises after a quick eval. I had spinal fusion in 2020 and was still in pain and my surgeon had no solutions. After seeing Darren for a couple months my improvement stalled and he had me start seeing Kevin who has extensive experience in strain counter strain nerve techniques. He not only helped with the pain but offered guidance on tests and scans and aided in the discovery of multiple problems including a life-threatening situation. I had to have a fusion revision and thanks to his help I was completely off all pain meds in just 4 weeks. From nerve pain to muscle imbalances, I highly recommend Darren and Kevin - even if they are out of network (which they were for me) because the care they provide is priceless. They are the absolute best, know SO much, and the rest of the staff is equally caring. Go nowhere else!

Outstanding! Darren and Brittany are an incredibly knowledgeable team who work beautifully in tandem. They take the time to thoroughly evaluate, customize treatment and closely monitor execution of exercises. I had been living with chronic back pain for 1 1/2 years before becoming a patient of theirs. I was told numerous times that back surgery was my next step. After long deliberation, PT Now came highly recommended. Within 4 months, I made amazing strides because of PT Now's treatment plan. I progressed back into my everyday routine and as an avid runner, biker and swimmer, Darren and Brittany give me great hope in regaining my active lifestyle. I am truly grateful for PT Now!

Amazing company and wonderful work ethic. I was referred to PTNOW a few years ago for Rotatory Cuff rehab. I can say without a doubt that this company knows what they are doing and they treat each patient as part of the family!. My husband also came with me to some of my appointments and was equally impressed with their patient interactions. I returned a year later because I insisted my PCP refer me back to them for rehab after another surgery. They are my "go to" rehab facility. I have referred many of my friends and coworkers to them. Darren and his staff are encouraging and the atmosphere is friendly! You will be in good hands!
