"I have known I had back issues my whole life and considered myself lucky for most of my life to not have any pain. As I got older and my back started to gradually hurt more and more, I sort of accepted it as a fact of life and aging. Boy was I wrong! After only about 6 weeks I have had such dramatic Improvement and no longer have the pain I had before and don't even know why I didn't do this sooner. The entire team here is knowledgeable and caring and I would highly recommend to anyone having back issues. This is been a game changer for me"

When I finally decided to try physical therapy, Rick quickly found the problem and began a regimen that would stabilize and strengthen my muscles. He was very professional, informative, and provided the treatment I needed. I am finally pain free and able to do the activities I love. Ben was his PTA and he was very helpful to teach me the stretches and exercises. Patricia was very kind and flexible so we could schedule around my busy work schedule. Overall, I had an excellent experience and would highly recommend."

"I had range of motion, flexibility and strength issues along with being stoop shouldered. I'm 79 years old and an avid golfer. I got a referral from my osteopath.
I began with a series of stretching exercises to be done twice daily. After a number of weeks additional stretching exercises were added. Finally a series of upper and lower body exercises working with weights was added.
About this time I saw my osteopath for the first time since she gave me the referral. Unsolicited she commented that my posture had improved and I was standing up much straighter. My range of motion, strength and flexibility have improved.
I visited the facility on Monday, Wednesday and Friday over the course of 20 weeks. The staff is professional and is there to help each individual each step of the way. Rick Sidor, the owner, and his staff, Ben and Pat work to ensure each visit is successful. Visits are scheduled to maximize each appointment.
My visits included treatments to my back when necessary because of tightness or soreness. For the last month or so of my visits, the treatments weren't necessary.
I have joined a gym to continue with exercising.
I highly recommend Spine and Orthopedic Rehab."

"I started my rehab at the 3rd Street office after a left-hip replacement on March 22, 2023. I happened to be one of my doctor's patients that worked hard and arduously to regain my mobility due to a year of delayed surgery. I was assigned Mickel' Yust as my regular therapist. She was so dedicated to my well being and relentlessly encouraged and supported me. At times when I grew weary of my rate of progress, she'd praise me and renew my belief in my ability. I can not thank her enough for her selfless concern, not just for me, but for her other patients as well. She definitely has a calling and is answering it well. I am up and about and living my life again in a way I haven't done for a couple years. I do want to add that all the employees there were personable and caring. If you're searching for the best place for your own therapy, I recommend SORVA."

My shoulder rehab has not only helped with the pain and stiffness in my shoulder and arm but has also helped with my chronic headaches. It has been such a blessing to get relief from chronic pain I have experienced for years. Rick, Carol and Pat have all made a difference in my life and I have hope again. I would recommend Rick and his staff to all who are struggling with chronic pain. There is help here and understanding.

When it finally got so bad that my quality of life was affected and I could barely sit, sleep, or walk comfortably, I sought help. Rick (the owner) was recommended to me by a friend, and my experience at this office was just as positive as hers. Rick provided treatment and exercises that put a stop to the pain. More importantly, I now have a plan and the knowledge to prevent the pain from returning. I hope I never need physical therapy again, but if I do, I will definitely return to Spine and Orthopedic Rehab."

"If you are in need of a physical therapist who will get to the root of your problem, I highly recommend Spine and Orthopedic Rehab. I became a patient there in August of 2022. I had received therapy from another provider prior to becoming a patient at Spine and Orthopedic Rehab with little to no results as they only treated my symptoms. Rick worked diligently with me to find the cause of my problem and after many months of treatment and excercise I was discharged in June of 2023. However, I still consider myself a patient there as Rick offers a gym membership to his discharged patients. Spine and Orthopedic Rehab provides you with the skills you need to maintain your healthiest lifestyle. They support you through this journey of wellness. So, if physical therapy is a recommendation for you give them a call. You won't regret it."

When I first arrived for physical therapy, I was experiencing constant pain in my lower back with shooting pain down my leg. Over the years I have tried acupuncture, chiropractic and scoliosis therapy, among others, and nothing gave more than temporary relief. Following Rick's assessment, Jess provided the best treatment I have ever received. For the first time in a long time, I am pain free and stronger than I've been in years. I can now continue my exercises and stretching on my own. I would highly recommend anyone with back or spine pain to seek help with Rick and his awesome team."

"My experience here has been the better than I could have hoped for! They do a fantastic job of taking care of patients. My care has been managed primarily by Christine and Daniel, and more recently Ahmed as well- who is a student in a local Physical Therapy Assistant program. They have been amazing!! From Dr. Sidor to Moriah to Shelby (receptionist) and everyone in between, you can tell that they care about helping people. They also succeed in that goal! I have seen steady improvements over the past few months of doing physical therapy. They also keep a very clean facility!! Nothing is worse than working out in an unclean gym or receiving treatment in a dirty office, and to that effect, I have never seen anything untidy ever in 4 months (Even in the break room is always clean-which is visible to patients)!! Huge plus for me. They coach people through their workouts and correct bad form, for those that are doing something unsafe. I have never felt like I was left to figure things out on my own. Dr. Sidor and crew are second to none at their mission of spine and orthopedic therapy/rehab!! Very friendly and helpful. Great job!!"

"Rick and his, staff have been great dealing with my issues. My ortho Dr highly suggested Rick and his staff. On 7/17/17 I got hurt and never felted such pian in my life. I'm the type of person who never takes medication for pain. This pain was so bad I was not able to hardly walk due the pain and numbness from hip to my foot. I contacted Rick and got an appoint very fast. It is now 8/4/2017 and now I'm able walk with no pain or with little numbness in my foot. I have been to other PT centers in the Roanoke valley and they don't compare to the service or help Rick and his staff have given to me. Rick offers great service. I was very scared before going to Rick and his staff, but my fear left as soon as my first treatment was done and was able to walk out with very limited pain. Rick is open and honest about what he can do. Believe me this center is above excellent. I would tell anyone who will listen Rick and staff can help u. I still have a few weeks left of my PT but look forward to ever time I go because I know will improve with each one from Rick and his staff. Thank you Rick. Yes sir Rick u know your stuff.

Testimonials
When I came to SOR I had been diagnosed with osteoporosis. My doctor predicted that it would continue and he wanted me to consider getting on medication to improve my bone density. After about a year of regular therapeutic exercise at SOR, I had another routine bone density test. The results indicated my bones are now within normal range! There was no indication of osteoporosis! I also feel so much better by no longer feeling “achey”and stiff, and my posture has also improved. In the past I have joint fitness clubs but never followed through. There is something special about getting the individual attention, guidance and support of the SOR staff and that works!

Spine and Orthopedic Rehab is one of those hidden jewels and underutilized resources of the medical community. I recently viewed firsthand their facility and staff when I became their patient for the treatment of shoulder pain. I was clearly skeptical that I could be helped, having had nightly shoulder pain for the previous six years and more recently a painful bursitis. After three months of therapy I am now pain-free and sleeping through the night. Best of all, they equipped me with a plan of action and exercises to prevent future injuries.
“Impressive” is the only way to describe their positive approach to the treatment of both acute and chronic pain. I was encouraged to see them hold patients to a higher standard. This is clearly a superior group of therapists who worked as a team with great success. As a physician and I highly recommend Spine and Orthopedic Rehab.

If I have to take therapy at any place it would be at Spine and Orthopedic Rehab. It is a nice clean place with caring people. You get the attention and help you need to help you get better.
