Healing Touch, Quality Time, Compassionate Care! 724-481-1141


Our physical therapists are trained to help manage pain and improve physical function, using a variety of non-pharmacological approaches such as manual therapy, exercise, Neubie Nerve Therapy, Shockwave Therapy, Deep Tissue Laser, nutritional supplements and education. We recommend a home exercise program to assist in the healing and return to full function process.
We offer specialized programs for women's and men's health issues such as pelvic pain, incontinence, and prenatal/postpartum care.
The pelvic floor consists of skin, muscles, ligaments, nerves, connective tissues, blood vessels, and organs in your pelvis. The pelvic floor provides stability for your pelvic girdle and spine and supports your bladder, rectum, and pelvic organs, including your uterus and vagina.
Our team of sports physical therapists work closely with athletes to help them recover from injuries, improve performance, and prevent future injuries. Injuries can be frustrating—whether you’re training for a race, playing recreational sports, or just trying to stay active. The good news? You don’t have to navigate recovery alone.
Our sports rehabilitation program is designed to help you heal, rebuild, and return to activity with confidence—not just pain-free, but stronger and more resilient than before.
Balance and gait are inextricably linked because they tend to impact one another. Even if you don’t think you’re in danger of falling over, that “running out of steam” while walking that you’re attributing to aging muscles could be something else. The problem might actually be slowing reflexes, which make moving around seem more strenuous than it is. By the same token, poor posture and gait can throw off those reflexes.
We offer Hands-On/Manual Therapy, functional & therapeutic activities and exercises, for all orthopedic injuries /ailments including:
Acute and Chronic Joint Pain
Muscle strains/Ligament Sprains,
Neck and Back pain
TMJ
Rotator Cuff and Shoulder issues
Headaches
Post Surgical & More
The vestibular system is a sensory system located in the inner ear that provides the brain with information about head motion, spatial orientation, and balance. It comprises five peripheral organs (three semicircular canals for rotational motion, two otolith organs for linear acceleration) and central pathways in the brain that regulate posture and eye movemen Quite simply, the vestibular system is our internal reference telling the brain how our head is orientated - up, down, tilt, etc
Deep Tissue Laser Therapy is also unique in that it has very few contraindications. Laser Therapy can be used on nearly any part of the body excluding the eyes, the uterus of pregnant women, and over active cancer sites. Laser Therapy can be used as a treatment for arthritis, headaches, lower back pain, tendinitis, strains and sprains, repetitive stress injuries, tempromandibular joint disorder (TMJ/TMD), wound healing, burns, sores, post-operative pain, soft tissue swelling, soft tissue injuries, fibromyalgia, carpal tunnel syndrome, post-operative wounds, and so much more.
Research has shown unique benefits to Deep Tissue Laser Therapy, including improving localized blood circulation, reducing localized inflammation and/or edema, stimulates wound healing and tissue repair, stimulates nerve function, and develops collagen and muscle tissue. These benefits stimulate healing and result in faster recovery times. For more information contact us today!
Shockwave therapy (extracorporeal shockwave therapy, or ESWT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic pressure waves to treat chronic, stubborn musculoskeletal, and orthopedic conditions by promoting tissue repair and pain relief. It is often used by patients seeking alternatives to surgery
Most commonly, shockwave therapy is used to help treat the following conditions:
● Achilles tendinopathy (pain in the tendon that connects the back of the foot to the calf
muscle)
● Plantar fasciitis (pain in the underside of the foot)
● Tennis elbow (pain on the outer side of the elbow)
● Golfers elbow (pain on the inner side of the elbow)
● Patellofemoral syndrome (runner’s knee)
● Iliotibial band Syndrome, or ITBS (pain that stretches from the outside of the hip down the
outer thigh to the outside of the knee caused by running and cycling)
● Medial tibial stress syndrome (shin splints)
● TMJ
● Bony heel spurs
The Neubie, short for ‘Neuro-Bio-Electric,’ is an innovative, FDA-cleared device that utilizes direct current (DC) to foster tissue healing and neuromuscular re-education. It uniquely stimulates the nervous system to enhance recovery of tissue, bone, muscle, and nerves, leading to faster healing, increased strength, and improved functionality. Remarkably, over 90% of users report noticeable improvements after just the first session, including reduced pain, increased mobility, and better overall performance.
The Neubie Master Reset program assists in the balance of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS), but claiming the Fight or Flight response & boosting the Rest & Relax Response leading to less anxiety, better sleep and enhanced overall healing.

As our contract with Fyzical Therapy & Balance Centers comes to an end, I want to share that we are reverting to our corporate name and roots in Balance For Wellness Physical Therapy & Integrative Medicine officially on May 1, 2026.
We decided to invest in Fyzical (a national PT franchise) in 2016 with the belief that our shared vision would continue to strengthen Balance For Wellness, Inc amongst the many changes that were occurring in the healthcare and insurance reimbursement worlds. We integrated Fyzical into our BFW roots and have continued to deliver quality care that has made us a “go-to” staple in this community.
We will continue to Provide
Healing Touch, Quality Time, Compassionate Care
as has been our promise for the last 25 years!
Many long-term clients along with medical professionals and others in the community still refer to us as Balance For Wellness. For those of you who have only known us as Fyzical Therapy & Balance Centers, I would like to give you a brief history of Balance For Wellness. I created the company in 2000 with a dream of delivering Physical Therapy in a more integrative and comprehensive fashion. The last 25 years have brought this dream to a reality! I still marvel at the growth of BFW and what it has allowed me and our staff to bring to you!
2000 – Balance For Wellness was born & I provided PT services in Pittsburgh
2002 – Rented a 250 sq foot space in the Butler Athletic Club on Duffy Road.
2003 – Moved to a 1750 sq foot space in the Stark Complex at 267 Pittsburgh Road (now
Diehl Collision Center)
2006 – Bought the old Melon Bank building at 505 Hansen Ave (~4500sq feet) and delivered
care there until 2014 (now Fox’s Pizza)
2012 – Rented a large space on Brickyard Road in Mars Pa opening a second BFW location
2014 – Decided that I wanted one strong and viable PT center and moved both locations into our present 10,000 sq foot facility at 601 Pittsburgh Road.
It has been my honor and pleasure to bring our wealth of knowledge & care to you all over the past 25 years!
May we all be Well, Happy & at Peace
Dr Lorri
We are strong, viable and beloved and WE ARE Balance For Wellness!
