What people are saying.
Melissa is the best physical therapist I've seen, and I'd strongly recommend her to anyone. She's friendly, thoughtful, and knowledgable. Melissa carefully listened to my problems and came up with a personalized treatment plan that alleviated my symptoms and put me on the road to recovery. In the past, I've had good PTs who just haven't been able to identify the real causes of my issues, but Melissa excelled. I can't recommend her enough.
I appreciated in particular that Melissa always checked to make sure my exercises were still serving me well, and adjusted them as needed. Melissa will make you work hard, but you will see progress! I'll be back for sure the next time I need a PT.

I worked with DPT Melissa Hussey and had a great outcome after our multi-month program. We went through a series of evolving exercises and stretches to make some initial flexibility improvements, then later focused on addressing specific weaknesses and imbalances throughout my hip. What was especially great was that the exercises were ones I could easily replicate and home or at the gym and didn't require any custom equipment. Additionally, my treatment involved some occasional assisted stretch and targeted massage gun on particular tension points.
I enjoyed Melissa's approach, which emphasized durable, long-lasting improvements to form and strength. She adjusted the regimen over time as we isolated the most stubborn pain points, was responsive to my level of soreness on any given day, and set realistic expectations for improvement timeframe as we increased the challenge level. She was able to relate to me as an active patient and as someone who wanted to return to contact sport, and managed my care with that in mind.

I had a chronic hip pain which got so bad that it was painful for me to stand for more than 5 min. I came to Melissa with sharp pain in my left leg and bad fatigue in my hips. Eight weeks later I have graduated and felt stronger than ever! Melissa's approach is just right for me, challenging but not intimidating. I also got detailed instructions on exercises to keep doing at home, at varying levels of difficulty. Thanks to Melissa I can now go about doing my normal life activities.

I messed up my knee pretty badly playing soccer almost two years ago now. My recovery has been longer and more tumultuous than I expected it to be. Through all the ups and downs, Advantage PT has been essential to my progress towards recovery.
My PT, Melissa, has supported me through every step (literally). There have been days where I honestly didn’t think I was going to ever get back to walking normally, let alone playing soccer again. With Melissa’s help, my knee feels normal and comfortable during everyday life, and I am optimistic about playing again. Even when I was frustrated or impatient with my own progress, Melissa was patient, understanding, and took the time to listen to my concerns and tailor exercises to my needs. Melissa’s the right balance of honesty and encouragement and she is kind and has made me feel comfortable through every stage of the process. She always answers my questions and in addition to physical exercises, she’s taught me a lot about the anatomy and kinesiology of my knee, so my knee is stronger, and I understand my knee better. Melissa’s super friendly, easy to talk to, kind, and very very good at what she does! You couldn’t ask for a better PT. Thank you for everything Melissa!

I worked with Melissa on a sprained ankle, and she was friendly, professional, patient, and motivating. She adjusted my exercises every session based on my feedback and how I was progressing. She also made it easy to tell how hard I could push my ankle during exercises.
