Providence Sports Care Center

I’ve been seeing Kasey for about 2 months now following a work injury. She has been persistent in trying to help me through my pain. She is personable and a great listener! She is also showing me new stretches and home exercises to assist my therapy. I also recently had a massage session with Molly who was fantastic! I will definitely be back!

They did NOTHING for me and charged me over $ 300 per session. I cannot believe they have the audacity to charge that much. I have called around and they are 3x the average in Portland. I might understand it if they were somehow more advanced than other PTs, but there is nothing special about the facility or the therapists… and, as I said, they did nothing. The evaluated me and said they couldn’t find the problem but wanted to keep working with me until they did… for $ 300 each time? Ummm… no thank you.

This is a wonderful sports care center. It’s in an amazing location and I’m impressed every time I step inside. Usually I dread medical appts but here, I never mind coming to my appts.
I’m here for concussion therapy and I’m comfortable with the team of three that I work with and I feel like they really care about me. They don’t just treat me like some number, I feel like they actually invest time into their patients and try their best for recovery.
It’s seriously one of the most beautiful centers I’ve visited.

Sybil is the best hand therapist! I was referred to her after not making progress elsewhere. Because of Sybil, I am able to return to work after over a year– major progress!

Jessica was the most positive, caring and amazing therapist I have encountered. She was helpful understanding and you really felt like she cared. If you have a choice of therapist when you attend, choose her she rocks!

So far no results. This place keeps referring me to physical Therapy which yielded no result but cost over $ 300 a session. Stay away.

It’s a miracle! A few weeks ago, I had knee pain to bad it affected my sleep and it was real tough going down stairs (I was getting depressed). A visit to a knee doctor suggested arthritis of the knees and various treatments discussed. I opted to try strengthening the knee via physical therapy to see it this would help and get me back to sports. Erica helped me design a routine of stretching and strengthening and I could actually feel the legs getting stronger over the next 4 weeks as I stuck to the exercises. The result is that I am a believer in consulting with a patient physical therapist that takes the time to explain both the reasons and methods for exercises. I feel after a month the legs are stronger and I am able to resume sports although will increase over time. I have only positive things to say about my experience and the results thus far as well as the communication and sincere offers to ensure all concerns and questions are addressed.

They are a wonderful group of people. Although it could be a challenging downtown location; they take the time to provide great directions and a parking pass. Nick is a great PT, he was the first person to have some great ideas on how to improve my shoulder pain.
(The last sports therapist I saw really acted like it was all in my head since it hurt in a different place the 2^nd time than the 1^st time that I saw him).
You can’t beat the view (Jeld-​Wen field right out the window). And although I haven’t had the opportunity to make use of the facilities, it seems that they have just about everything availalbe that you could ever hope for.
The only downfall — if you aren’t blessed with a set co-​pay, then this place is far above the average cost for physical therapy, and I can’t afford to go back for my next two appointments. My last appointment was under 15 minutes, consisted of using a plastic tool to try to get a knot out of my shoulder muscle and telling me to keep up my exercises, and I have been told will be costing me over $ 200. I have a great Massage Therapist who could devote many hours to my shoulder at that price.

I’ve experienced debilitating back and hip pain for the last few years and the last PT I tried just made things worse, so I didn’t have much hope when I went to PSCC, but oh my, was I wrong. I shouldn’t have given up so soon. It was a mechanical issue and not some personality flaw like I was beginning to think!
Thank you Michele, for all your help. I’ve gone from barely able to walk to building a daily exercise routine that I hope will continue and grow more challenging. It’s a blessing to have a way to feel better and I am so grateful to be seeing a skilled, intuitive, and kind physical therapist who takes me seriously instead of just making me feel bad for being in pain. (When you have a lot of pain it’s hard not to focus on it and to worry that you’ll never be without pain. It’s hard to remember that you might be able to alleviate it with some targeted exercise. It’s hard not to blame yourself since you doctor treats you like you might be a closet heroin addict trying to scam her out of drugs that might lessen your pain (it’s so cyclical… why couldn’t I have had back pain during the time when they were treating pain instead of ignoring it?). Lesson: Find a good physical therapist!
It takes consistent work on my part but the results are a great incentive to keep at it. If you have back or hip pain (or any pain or injury or weakness), think seriously about finding a good physical therapist to help you get back your strength and agility. With guidance and support there may be some things you can do to feel better, stronger, and lead a more functional and happier life. I sound like badly written commercial but this is all from the heart.

My ankle is all screwed up. I broke it in 2006 and it’s never been the same since. For five years I suffered from lack of mobility, range of motion, stiffness and pain. Until recently I had surgery on it… a surgery that removed many impediments to motion. And after five years, I was in a position to get my ankle working again.
So I ended up at Providence Sports Care Center in the good hands of Emily (and Chris and Rachel). Home to the army of Timbers physical therapists, this state-​of-​the-​art facility is located actually inside Jeld Wen field and serves both their professional clients and the general public. And it happens to be in my network (BCBS).
Having skipped out on PT in the past (which is what at least partially caused me to never heal right) I have been determined, over the last month and a half, to get my ankle working again. The ladies at PSCC were, I think, almost as determined as I. Or at least that’s the quality of attention I received at this facility. It’s way more hands-​on than any PT I’ve had in the past, and worth, IMHO, every cent I’ve paid for it.
Emily has been my primary PT trainer however throughout my course of treatment I worked with a couple of people. Each time there was plenty of communication between them, but aside from doing the exercises and mobility training, the most important part of my recovery here was the hands-​on work that has helped dislodge immobile portions of my joint, to help train my ankle how to work properly again. And the work they did on breaking up scar tissue so my muscles, ligaments and tendons can work the way they are supposed to. And Emily has been a pleasure to work with.
I’m now two months out from surgery and my ankle is already way better than it has been at any point since my initial break in 2006, and I am on my way back toward a place I’d like to be long-​term. While my knowledge of physical therapy practices is that of a layperson, I am convinced that the pros here are some of the best at what they do. And it seems the Timbers do as well. I’ve been dealing with ankle mobility issues for years, and the PT’s here were able to pinpoint issues and begin correcting them immediately.
The center itself is nice, shiny and new, as well. They have plenty of high-​tech and low-​tech gadgetry on site to do all sorts of strength and flexibility work. While the venue is small and intimate, there’s no shortage of facilities.
I already owe these ladies a lot, and if my ankle gets back anywhere close to pre-​break status, I owe them my health. I’d recommend this center to anyone.
