“Justin Lyons is the real deal. Over the years, I have traveled far and wide to work with the best of the best. If you want the best, Justin is your guy. He combines customized care & advanced treatment methods with an organized & professional approach. Justin will identify and tackle your needs, and take your quality of life to new heights!”

“I met Justin a little over a year ago as a reference of my son Michael. I had torn my rotator cuff and now have more bionics in my body then I ever thought possible. Justin is absolute magic and can fix any issues I have during my appointment. He has been an absolute blessing and I would trust him with any issues or concerns about my health and body. He has been my doctor, therapist and a true friend for quite a while and I would trust him implicitly. If you have the opportunity to work with Justin, you are in good hands and should not turn it down. He is professional, extremely intelligent and caring.”

“Justin and i'Therapy are truly outstanding. Just what I needed! Justin is a skilled therapist but so much more. He listens to your specific problem, carefully analyzes your movement and mechanics, and educates you on a comprehensive treatment plan designed for you. This is not a cookie-cutter approach. It is designed specifically for you. And he makes it work for you. Justin came to my house when it was convenient for me, not him! I have been to other physical therapy programs - they do not compare to the services of Justin and i'Therapy!”

“On my 65th birthday I had a bad fall skiing. The result was a torn meniscus and a ruptured ACL. As I anticipated surgery a friend recommended Justin Lyons. I did some due diligence and quickly reached out to i’Therapy. Recovery from an ACL surgery is an arduous process especially when you are in your sixties. I have made a full recovery and am now back on the mountains skiing again. I would highly recommend Justin. He comes to each session with a detailed, organized, and well thought out plan for each session. In the sessions I was encouraged and challenged to get to the next level of strenghtening and stretching the ACL. Justin had the perfect balance of pushing me forward but backing off if my knee wasn't up to it for a session. Also ,there was a level of accountability between sessions that kept me on track for a timely and full recovery. As I reflect back on this process I cant imagine going thru an ACL recovery without Justin and his attentiveness and focus on my full recovery. .”

“I started preparing for knee replacement with Justin through PT. After a few sessions, he determined my issues to be foot related. My knee will have to be addressed someday, but Justin’s PT through various strengthening processes eliminated my limp and regained mobility and better balance! I am now back to playing golf and pickleball…Thank you for the unexpected success and activity!!!”

“Justin and the team at iTherapy exceeded my expectations. The customized treatment, communication, follow up and care from the entire team was impressive. I was experiencing pain that greatly impacted the quality of my life. Justin throughly assessed, explained, and partnered with me on my recovery. Every meeting he had a detailed plan and would adjust based on my current state that day. His knowledge and range of procedures provided a personalized set of services I couldn’t have received anywhere else. Now having recovered, Justin armed me with the tools to maintain my health and fitness. I now have the ability to stay on a path of progress.”

“Dr. Justin Lyons is an excellent clinician and his knowledge and attention to detail played a significant role in my treatment and full recovery. He is personable, responsive and very well qualified. Dr. Lyons developed a treatment plan specific to my needs and modified it as we made progress. His ability to meet me at my home for treatment made the process smooth and very efficient. He is a true professional and cares deeply about his patients. Thank you!”

“Most dedicated medical professional I've ever met to date. Justin is a referred doctor from a close colleague of mine. I had been having some major re-occurring setbacks with lower back issues from previous injuries almost 30yrs ago. Justin listened to me as I described my symptoms of the chronic back pain history, years of medicinal pain injections, including surgery. He choreographed this information and proposed a method of not only rehabilitation but expanding my goals of regaining strengths that I had decades ago. His motivation during the rehabilitation process was astounding and then challenged me to accelerated levels beyond my 'perception' of my physical abilities. This helped me regain strength and mobility I had not had for years. He has left an absolute positive impression on my life as I move forward with my career paths. This guy is the real deal!”

“As a referring physician, I have found that working with Justin has been a seamless experience. After the referral has been made, he promptly connects with the patient to set up an initial evaluation at a time and place that is convenient for them. His extensive training and experience in physical therapy has given him some impressive diagnostic skills. He takes time to listen to the presenting symptoms and after a skillful, comprehensive evaluation he is able to identify the root cause of their problem. Not only has he produced results at helping my patients, but he does a great job of communicating his findings and treatment back to me. More important than his talents as a physical therapist is his commitment to providing high level care with compassion and empathy. He focuses not just on the problem at hand but how the pain or limitation affects the person as a whole. It is clear to me that he cares about people. I would highly recommend his services without hesitation.”

"When you are in pain from an injury or simply in pain period, please do yourself a favor and contact Justin Lyons. The first thing he does is sit down with you, listens to you, and truly explains the process based upon your situation. His exceptional skill set and his ability to identify ways to get you better is by far the best I have ever experienced. I am amazed that he is constantly training by improving his knowledge at conferences and other Physical Therapists around the Country. His passion, Character & thoughtful approach is absolutely refreshing. He has helped my 7 year old, my wife and of course me. Results matter and Justin will do his best to help you. He just cares!”

“Justin and iTherapy did a fantastic job of effectively returning me to solid physical form following a full hip replacement. I’ve already recommended friends to iTherapy and would always use them for any fiuture needs for myself or my family.”

“I have been receiving regular treatment from Justin for the past 12 months. He has been incredibly helpful, focusing on my goal of maintaining an active lifestyle throughout my 70s and beyond. Always eager to share his knowledge and explain the “why” of things, Justin has transformed the way I think about dysfunction, its associated pain or discomfort, and the processes needed to correct or stabilize it. He is always prepared and on time, and his standard sessions are long enough to actually make a difference. Justin has an engaging personality and I find his enthusiasm and genuine interest in my health to be very motivating. I’m glad to have him on my team, and highly recommend his service to others.”

“In April of 2021 I had a skiing accident and tore my ACL and had a complex meniscal tear. I originally sought physical therapy at a local, well established PT clinic. I did about a dozen visits there right after my surgery and was always left feeling like I was lacking feedback. I never had a physical therapist monitoring my exercises, asking me how it felt, or modifying my movements if I was doing them wrong. I took some time off from physical therapy after getting my range of motion back because I knew my meniscus needed time to heal without stressing it. I wish I had called Justin sooner. At 5 months post-op Justin began treatment with me using blood flow restriction. Had I known that this was an option I would have greatly benefited from starting with Justin right after surgery to avoid so much atrophy. Justin does everything that I felt was lacking at my previous experience. He is incredibly knowledgeable. He watched every single repetition of every exercise that I did and constantly provided feedback, asked me how it felt and then suggested any modifications that were necessary. My surgeon, at my 8 month post-op appointment, was amazed at how much strength I'd regained and what I was able to do. It's been 9 months since my surgery now and I've been skiing for the past month and a half and I am back to 80% playing tennis. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to call Justin again or to recommend him and his services. My knee is better and just as importantly I have the my confidence back. If you want more from your physical therapy, call him.”

“We’ve both loved participating in competitive individual & team sports since our early teen years. Now that we’re in our early 60’s, we’ve accumulated our fair share of neck, back, elbow, wrist, hip and knee injuries and surgeries. Not surprisingly, we aren’t newcomers to Physical Therapy, either.
But, due to our wide range of PT experiences – from it being beneficial and cost-effective to it being a pure waste of time and money – we weren’t looking forward to the impending order for Physical Therapy following a major spinal fusion surgery in August 2018. It was about that time that we first heard about I’Therapy and Dr. Lyons through a mutual friend. We met and he seemed more than competent. Plus, we were intrigued by the benefits of his concierge model for PT, and so we decided to give Dr. Lyons a try following the back surgery.
Never could we have imagined how thoroughly he would invest himself into us. Neither did we have any inkling that a DPT could bring so many resources to the table. We didn’t know he was so passionate about furthering his education, and that we would be reaping the benefits of his intense drive for continuously improving his knowledge and skills to meet people’s needs better and better.
Dr. Lyons is easy for us to talk to and to communicate with. He’s always professional. He’s always on time. He blends confidence with humility, which is rare in a doc these days. Heck, it’s rare in a person these days. He brings more to the table than we felt we had a right to expect. And if that isn’t enough... well, he actually even brings the dang table! "

As a former collegiate athlete, I have been treated by a number of physical therapists, but Justin has impressed me the most. An athlete himself, Justin brings intense focus to his work, and to serving his patients with both a scientific mind and a human touch. Justin’s skillset and concierge approach are unique, in my experience. He draws on a deep well of knowledge in addressing the weaknesses or structural problems that cause chronic pain. And the results show. He noticed, and fixed, an alignment issue that I didn’t even know I had. He suggested new ways of moving and home exercises that I now use every day and will continue to use indefinitely. He collaborated with me on what worked best for me, using state-of-the-art apps and therapeutic technologies. He even recommended the best pillow I have ever had! As a result of Justin’s efforts, my chronic neck and shoulder issues have improved greatly. I would also add that he and Courtney are wonderful people who bring professionalism, humor, care, and integrity directly to your home.

“We were both struck with physical issues at the same time, one of us was having foot problems and the other shoulder pain. We were referred to iTherapy and Justin from a friend who experienced success with his treatment. We found Justin to be very professional and were amazed by his knowledge of the body and its function. His unique approach and variety of tools available to assess and treat us is second to none. The in home therapy sessions were very convenient and gave a greater sense of privacy than a traditional rehab facility. We are thankful for the relief we experienced when working with iTherapy and would recommend Justin to anyone needing an honest, hardworking, aggressive therapist.”

“I had dealt with shoulder pain for the better part of 10 years and always ignored and pushed through all of the discomfort. When we were blessed with having our first child, the day to day physical activity started taking its toll on my shoulder more and more and that’s when I went to my primary care physician for help. That is when he recommended physical therapy and more specifically he introduced me to Justin. I had never had any sort of PT prior to this and meeting Justin could not have been better for me. The services that Justin provides are truly incredible. The convenience of him coming to my home (he offered to set up all of his equipment wherever I was most comfortable and that included outside in the yard) made it so easy to schedule time for myself. His knowledge, technology and work ethic are remarkable. It seemed that every appointment he would tell me about another new method he was researching or another conference he was attending which in turn helped to evolve and progress my plan greatly. He pushed me hard but never pushed me further than what was best for my shoulder. I’d highly recommend Justin to anyone looking for a physical therapist”

“ I first learned about Justin this fall at an informational group meeting with a group of women I work out with. He gave us an overview of his philosophy, what he specializes in, and how he is more patient specific with his personalized therapy programs. I decided to seek his help for my chronic shoulder and neck pain that was only absent during massage. Justin’s intake, evaluation, and treatment was incredibly thorough and very impressive. The outcome was like no other. I worked with him twice on my chronic pain and have improved immensely.”

I've had some good relief from various pain problems and I really like how well Justin explains what the problem is and what he is doing to correct it. He is easy to work with on all issues from scheduling to him giving me a big say in what strategies to use to correct problems. He listens well and always takes my view point into consideration.”
