Breakout Physical Therapy and Wellness

I can't recommend working with Sam enough! She is a thoughtful, thorough PT and I really appreciate being able to communicate with her between sessions when I have a question about my exercises or experience an unexpected injury. Highly recommend her practice for your PT needs!

We have had great success working with Sam Wicks at Breakout Physical Therapy and Wellness. As a swim team with over 400 members it has been invaluable to be able to both refer athletes for consultation and therapy, as well as plan instructional injury prevention seminars for parents and athletes. We are very pleased to have Breakout PT as a partner in sports wellness and offer our highest recommendation.

My daughter has had appointments with Sam at Breakout PT to work on shoulder discomfort & pain related to swimming. Sam provided exercises and strength training sequences that were quick and easy enough to motivate a teenager to actually do them... that's the sign of a good therapist! There has been less shoulder pain, and I have been impressed with Sam's patience and questions during appointments, and follow-up and check-ins since our last appointment. I would not hesitate to see her again if the discomfort returns, or for other injuries. Definitely highly recommended!

Sam worked with my son when he sprained his ankle during a basketball game. She was so helpful and kind as she assessed the injury then gave him exercises to help in his recovery. He was eager to get back playing and the work he did with her helped him return faster! I would highly recommend working with Sam. She is knowledgeable, easy going and fun to work with. You can tell she really cares about her work and her clients.

Sam was able to see me for PT when I needed it most. Exercises she gave were easy to follow and we had periodic check ins to adjust the exercises as needed. I've had less neck pain and better movement, which I am really thrilled about. Making appointments was convenient and not complicated, which I appreciate as someone with a fairly busy schedule. I'm able to sleep more comfortably and get back to doing more physical things at the cabin like splitting and stacking wood as well as exercising with less pain. Thank you Sam.

Sam helped me regain strength in my shoulder from a months-old sports injury and a many years old sports injury to my left knee. Before I visited Sam, my shoulder was regularly stiff and in pain, and my knee gave me sharp pain when putting weight on it at random times. Sam diagnosed both injuries, established an effective rehab/exercise regimen, and explained how each exercise would impact my body. Sam was always professional, diligent, and good-natured, from assessment to exercises to accountability. She's also flexible and willing to work with you to identify ways to keep you on track with your exercises (she has an app!) and get to a pain-free life. Best yet: Sam helps to hold you accountable. She doesn't just give you exercises and walk away. She consistently checks in to see if we need to make any accommodations based on my ability to complete the exercises and move forward with recovery. I highly recommend Samantha Wicks/Breakout Physical Therapy!

I've had a nagging calf injury for more than a decade that has sidelined my goal of someday running a marathon several times. Sam was able to quickly diagnose that my issue isn't really my calf, it's other weak leg and feet muscles that the calf is compensating for. Sam put me on a training plan to strengthen my hips and hamstrings in addition to providing a general running and aerobic weekly schedule. Sam also follows up and checks in on my progress. She's enthusiastic and has my goals in mind. I would certainly recommend her services to others.

Sam met with my daughter to help her with an ongoing hip issue. She spent a long time talking with her and then gave her a series of exercises to do to help strengthen her hip. I would definitely recommend Sam to anyone, especially athletes. She is so knowledgeable and listens so well to what the issue is and what the goal is.
