Patient Testimonies /
When I first started Physical Therapy I could barely walk 5 minutes down the road without having to stop because of severe back pain. Lashanda and Andre really helped me gain my life back. I still have some time to go, but I know I will be able to succeed
by - Leigh Ann Miller
I was having some lower back pain. My primary care doc recommended Barr & Associates. They are a first class organization. They developed a plan to build up my core muscles to relieve the pain. I completed 8, 1 hour session over 4 weeks. In addition to the session at the Barr & Associates facility, they developed home exercises which I followed daily. I would strongly recommend Barr & Associates

I would not be where I am now in my healing process without P.T. I would also not be where I am without the closed attention of Dr. Barr and Brock specifically. I cannot describe the importance of the 1 on 1, hour long sessions. Brock deserves a lot of credit for his work and also dealing with me and all of my questions. I learned a lot from him no only about my healing, but also bettering my physical ability in the future. Thank you al, especially Jake and Carol, love you guys

It was a pleasure to come to Barr & Associates for treatment. The facility was clean and very well organized. The treatments were explained clearly and the therapists were very understanding and helpful in treating your pain. The staff were all courteous and very helpful with appointments, reminders and insurance issues. The one-on-one attention by the therapists for the full hour was noticeable and appreciated. One thing I noticed is that everyone spoke in soft, but firm voices which is very calming to the patients. Thank you for a great experience and than you to the therapists who taught me exercises to do at home!

Dr. Lovett and Brock worked with me in therapy. They were outstanding. I have never experienced a medical environment where the staff showed so much empathy and sympathy towards your difficult situation. They both offered my a wealth of encouragement and humored me along the way. They opened up and shared struggles in their lives and that strengthened our rapport. Dr. Lowett is the “perfect” person for your team. She really care about her patients and she listens. She was patient with me. I felt inspired every time I left my therapy session with her. They both are assets to your facility

I cam in on a walker 30th of June. After working with Stacy and Jen for 3 weeks started using cane as precaution. They gave me confidence and I don’t use it anymore. They are the best. Really enjoyed my time and looked forward to coming. Will miss everyone

I would like to thank BARR ASSOCIATES for helping me get through my shoulder surgery. They showed me empathy and caring and understanding. I set a goal on myself and they helped me reach that goal. My special thanks goes out to Jen, John, Andre, for helping me achieve that goal. I was very blessed the day I walked into Barr Associates and very grateful. I would recommend Barr to everyone. God bless you all

It is evident from the volume of patients in the waiting room that the therapists are excellent at their profession. What I think makes the business great are the people that greet you when you sign in. They treat everyone in a manner to make them feel comfortable. P.T. is sometimes a painful experience and the girls up front take your mind off of what’s coming. I have recommended Barr to everyone in need. No one has been dissatisfied.
by - Terry Kalaska (04/04/2019)
I have just completed physical therapy for my knee. This was my first experience for physical therapy and I was very pleased to see that I had the personal attention of Dr. Barr as well as my therapist, Andre. Both were extremely professional and Andre was especially kind, gentle and considerate of my medical history. I would certainly recommend Barr and Associates to everyone who has this need.
by - June D. (March 23, 2019)
The best of the best I would describe you! The individual attention given by the Barr Therapy group is unmatched. Due to the COVID issues, I took my last 4 sessions via video conferencing. It proved to be a continuation of the great services I had received in the office. Thank you for helping my recovery. Dr. Lovett is a treasure!
I have referred others to Barr who have also been most pleased.
by - Ricky Marshall (04/21/2020)
I have been treated at Barr several times and each time I have been helped immeasurably. The therapists especially Jennifer have been knowledgeable and thorough without exception.
The care for the patient’s needs/concerns is universal.
You all make recovery beyond expectations and you do it pleasantly.
All my experience with Barr and Associates has been exceptional!

I am so thankful to my friend who recommended Barr & Associates Physical Therapy for my needs. Such an outstanding practice from the office staff, the manager & the therapists. They are all extremely professional, friendly, caring & competent. Always prompt & constantly making sure I was pleased with their care. I made great progress on a foot problem after surgery & a knee problem. They continually gave me many methods to help resolve the issues. They constantly checked for my needs & listened with care. I am so very pleased with the results from Lashanda and Brock.

FAQs / Common Questions
Physical therapists apply research and proven techniques to help people get back in motion. All physical therapists are required to receive a graduate degree – either a master’s degree or a clinical doctorate — from an accredited physical therapist program before taking the national licensure examination that allows them to practice. State licensure is required in each state in which a physical therapist practices. They are trusted health care professionals with extensive clinical experience who examine, diagnose, and then prevent or treat conditions that limit the body’s ability to move and function in daily life.
More and more physical therapists are now graduating with a Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) degree. More than 92% of the 210 accredited academic institutions nationwide offering professional physical therapist education programs now offer the DPT degree – and more than 75% of all 2008 PT graduates hold a DPT degree.
Physical therapists provide care for people in a variety of settings, including hospitals, private practices, outpatient clinics, home health agencies, schools, sports and fitness facilities, work settings, and nursing homes. Physical therapists diagnose and treat people of all ages, including newborns, children, and elderly individuals. They may consult and practice with other health professionals to help you improve your mobility.
In the state of Florida, through Direct Access, you can scheudle an appointment with a Physical Therapist without the referral of another physician.

- Back Pain
- Knee Pain
- Osteoporosis
- Overuse Injuries
- Shoulder Pain

Blending science with inspiration, your physical therapist will teach you how to prevent or manage a health condition and help motivate you during your treatment so you can function optimally. Your physical therapist will work with you to help you understand your body so you will achieve long-term health benefits.
Your physical therapist will examine you and develop a plan of care using a variety of treatment techniques that help you move, reduce pain, restore function, and prevent disability. Your physical therapist can also help you prevent loss of mobility and motion by developing a fitness- and wellness-oriented program tailored to your specific needs. Your physical therapist may choose to team with a physical therapist assistant (PTA), an educated and licensed clinician working under the direction and supervision of the physical therapist, for components of your care.
Physical therapists and PTAs are your partners throughout your journey to restoring and maintaining motion so that you can function at your personal best.
As long as your treatment is a covered benefit under your plan, is medically necessary and you are making documented progress, your insurance company should cover. (Benefits are verified before your treatment starts and we encourage our patients to verify this also.)
In most cases it is best to have a prescription from your physician unless you wish to self pay for your services. Florida is a direct access state, which means you may see a Physical Therapist for 21 days and be self pay without a prescription. Call the office for further details.
