Exceptional Care and True Professionals in Summit, NJ!I cannot recommend Professional Physical Therapy in Summit, NJ, highly enough. I came to them with a painful and debilitating shoulder injury that was significantly limiting my ability to do many activities. Thanks to their structured and... expert care, I am now completely recovered and pain-free.The results speak for themselves, but it's the quality of the team that truly makes the difference. Kayla was absolutely instrumental in my recovery; she is incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and consistently went above and beyond to tailor the program to my specific needs and progress.The environment is always positive, professional, and encouraging, thanks to the entire staff, including the fantastic support from Dominic and Sophia. They all work together seamlessly to guide you back to full health. If you are struggling with an injury or chronic pain, this is the place to go for real, lasting results!read more

This is an amazing place to go to get the help to get better. I went with Shoulder and neck issues and the team are all amazing.Don is really knowledgable of different and interesting exercises and stretches. While Alyssa is both small and mighty, and ensures you get in the best number of moves,... steps and reps - and no skipping - to get you feeling eventually better.Above all the atmosphere is fantastic, you want to go to PT, even if it aches. Mainly because the team, really cares.read more

I can’t say enough good things about this place! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed, cared for, and truly listened to. The front desk staff are always kind and accommodating, and the therapists go above and beyond to make sure you’re comfortable and supported every step of the way.What... stood out to me most is how personalized the care is. They don’t just hand you a set of exercises—they take the time to understand your pain, your goals, and your progress, adjusting along the way to help you get the best results possible. I never felt like “just another patient,” but like someone they genuinely wanted to see heal and succeed.Thanks to their patience, encouragement, and expertise, I’ve gained not only strength and mobility but also the confidence that I can get back to doing the things I love. I’m truly grateful for the care I’ve received here and would recommend this place to anyone in need of physical therapy. They don’t just help your body heal—they make the journey uplifting too.read more

Highest recommendation for PPT in Summit. I had the beginnings of an achilles injury and tendinitis in the arm. I had stopped running for 2-3 months. Kayla and the PPT team are extremely knowledgeable. Gave great advice and exercises. Zero pain after several weeks of physical therapy here. I... did not expect that was possible. I met other patients who had serious accidents and made huge recoveries with their help. Could not recommend it more highly for the high level of expertise, friendly atmosphere, and nice facility.read more
Matty B.
Wow. This place knocked my socks off. Their therapists aren’t just wonderful physical therapists, they’re wonderful people. Alyssa, Kayla, and Dom all make it seem like a joy when you’re in there while still maintaining professional care of your recovery. Not only are the physical therapists kind,... their front desk host Melissa is such a help with scheduling and billing. A truly wonderful person to contact so frequently! And if that wasn’t enough, their aids that assist them with equipment, exercise demonstrations and cleaning are also very kind and help lighten the mood and are great conversationalists. Jake and Annalese were particularly nice. The entire summit professional physical therapy family is wonderful and I couldn’t imagine going anywhere else to recover!read more
Sunil G.
Professional, convivial, clean, accommodating and accessible facility with personable, helpful and involved staff and therapists. Unhurried and polite therapy sessions. My condition has noticeably improved and the previous discomfort is almost gone! Love it and highly recommend it. .
Eileen B.
There are not enough words to express my gratitude to the team at Professional PT. I am an avid runner that ran all the word marathons, was fast and running was my happy place. I was sidelined in March of 2024 and finally got partial knee surgery in January 2025. I was devastated and really had... NO clue how hard it would be to rehab. In steps Alyssa P. at Professional PT! For me, THE BEST PT I have ever had. I have had a lot with all of the running injuries over 10 year of non-stop running. Alyssa is professional, extremely knowledgeable and met me where I was at. As a former athlete herself she saw my anxiety of being unsure if I would run again. She assured me that it would take time to recover. Alyssa was always kind, patient, present, moved me forward when I was scared to move forward and always did everything with a reassuring “you got this “ tone and attitude. She NEVER misses a beat. She knows all of her clients by name and she knows what each of us are doing at any given time and whether we are doing it correctly or not. Alyssa is totally hands on and she creates a welcoming and safe environment for er clients that is amazing! Her mission is to get her clients to feel better than they did when they arrived and I can tell you honestly, I always did. Her knowledge has no end. She is ready for any question, she ways has an answer, and if she does not she gets back to you asap with the information you need. I am grateful to Alyssa P for moving me forward, pushing me in the best and kindest way and always doing it with a smile in her face assuring you that you are on the right path to recovery. I highly recommend Alyssa P and the whole team : Dom, Kayla, Kathleen and all of the assistants there for any PT needs you may need. They are all amazing, but Alyssa P., thank you for always pushing me forward and for always watching my progress. You are the best!!read more

I can’t say enough great things about my experience here! From day one, the team was welcoming, professional, and genuinely invested in my recovery. Alyssa, Dom, and Kayla were absolutely incredible—each of them brought their own expertise and encouragement to every session, and it made a huge... difference in my progress. They not only helped me regain strength and mobility but also made the whole process enjoyable. The environment is positive, well-organized, and always focused on patient care. Highly recommend this place to anyone needing physical therapy—you'll be in great hands!read more
David R.
Can’t say enough great things about my experience here doing physical therapy over the course of two different injuries. The staff is truly personable and goes above and beyond and honestly, I look forward to coming every week and got to know especially Dom and Alyssa extremely well and they are... wonderful human beings and experts in what they do. Also wonderful that this location is in equinox so you have access to all of their equipment which is a major plus. Would give six stars if I could.read more

Had a great experience at Professional Physical Therapy rehabbing an ankle sprain. Kayla was great and I had excellent support from Chris (student finishing his certification) who was my primary physical therapist for the last several sessions. Would highly recommend and will return if needed.
Ken P.
The best place to come for PT. The staff is great and very knowledgeable and makes it enjoyable to be there. I have had several injuries over the past few years and have always come here and always will. Each time they had me back on my feet before I thought I would. Always sad to leave when I... graduate!read more
Daniel P.
I have been coming here for 2 consecutive years and could not be more grateful to have found Profession Physical Therapy. Sadly, I had ACL and shoulder labrum surgery’s due to sports related injuries. However, these physical therapist’s made the recovery process so much better. They are all... extremely friendly and skilled. I have a blast every single time I come for an appointment. Thank you Kayla and Dom so much for all that you do!read more
Evangeline W.
The people who work here are phenomenal with people of all ages! I worked with Kayla for my knee and the environment is so welcoming and kind! The aids and other therapists are always willing to help no matter what. I love coming here and Kayla always manages to cheer me up no matter what. They... keep me on task while also making sure I am being the best I can be! Definitely go here if you want to get better physically and mentally!read more

Thank you Professional Physical Therapy @ Equinox Summit. Kayla, Dom and staff are incredibly thoughtful, caring and friendly. They helped me stay a head of the curve post hip surgery. Their approach is very dynamic. The facility is perfect and has more than you need.
Jean P.
Professional Physical Therapy has been my go-to place for the past 8 years. I wouldn’t think of going anywhere else. Kayla is top-notch and does an excellent job with every single body part! I’ve had a broken ankle, tennis elbow, my college lacrosse player daughter had a variety of injures. We... always come here for PT. Every time after my course of therapy, it feels like I never even had those injuries. She is so caring, positive and upbeat! Every time I come in for therapy, I feel motivated and ready to do the work because of the positive atmosphere. It’s a real bonus to have her sister Courtney to assist. They are such a great team. I highly recommend PPT of Summit.read more

Can't find enough positive adjectives to communicate my extreme satisfaction with the care I received at PPT in Summit.

I had physical therapy for my back with Lisa. She is knowledgeable, dedicated and a pleasure to work with. Was able to see resolution of my issue without going beyond the initial prescription of my orthopedist. I also had some sessions with Spencer and Sami. Both were excellent as well. This is a... great facility for PT — everyone from the receptionist to aides and therapists give it their all to your improvement. Highly recommend!read more

We started at another practice and I could instantly tell the difference. Spencer is a higher level of care and I’m so glad we found him.
