Physical Therapy Reviews In Greenville, SC
Kyle J.
“I sought Tim’s expertise after several cumulative issues surfaced in 2019 while training for a Spartan Beast half-marathon. Tim quickly identified the root causes of my pain during an assessment and we got to work the following week. Tim is incredibly knowledgeable and his treatment plan has been effective. Tim is kind, professional, and genuinely wants to improve the lives of his patients through effective, goal-oriented treatment, education, and at-home exercise regimens. The results speak for themselves. I recently passed the halfway point of my treatment plan and my pain has significantly reduced—soon to be eliminated—and I have improved flexibility, balance, and strength. I highly recommend Movement Solutions and will certainly return if the need arises.”

“I’ve really enjoyed working with Movement Solutions for the past few weeks. They really stand out in how patient-centered they are from the initial phone call to the discovery visit, continuing to each appointment, asking really quality questions that make you feel confident they are invested in resolving your discomfort to improve your daily life and favorite choice of fitness. The foot and hip pain I was having have near completely resolved at this point in my care plan with them. The work put in with them has really translated over both to the gym and daily life making movement painless and more efficient!”
Adam K.
“After years of struggling with chronic back, shoulder and knee pain, I finally decided I needed to do something about it. I met Tim during a seminar he put on at Swamp Rabbit Crossfit, and was impressed with his knowledge and expertise. After four sessions with him, my back pain is nearly gone, and my overall physical performance is better than it has been in years. My job is very physically demanding, so protecting my spine and being conscious of my movements is a very important aspect of my day to day life. I wouldn’t trust anyone but Tim to guide me in the proper movement technique and practices to ensure my physical longevity. Most importantly, my greatest desire is to be pain free after a long day of work so that I can interact with my very active three year old son. Not only has Tim significantly helped me in the achievement of this goal, but he is also very empathetic of balancing parenthood and work, something I appreciate and respect. Tim, thank you for taking the risk of going into business for yourself so that you can focus on quality of patient care; myself and all of your patients are grateful for your dedication to truly helping others.”

“Went in with very inflamed and painful meniscus in left knee (triggered by a 40-mile charity cycling event)Every step caused sharp pain. Dr. Tim did a complete evaluation, then we began the next day to address the issues. He knew just what to do to move toward getting my knee back to painless functionality. Each visit produced new healing, and I can say that I am now 95% healed after 7 visits. We are also working now on some right hip pain, which is also coming along nicely. I highly recommend Dr. Tim for his expertise in understanding and dealing with middle age sports related/fatigue injuries. I am now planning a ski trip this spring with my grandchildren, which I thought I would have to pass on.”

“I’ve worked with numerous medical professionals throughout my athletic career and I can wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Tim Varghese. After initially consulting with Tim for shoulder tendinitis, I have felt stronger and more resilient throughout my whole body since starting his strength and mobility rehabilitation program. His approach goes beyond solving just acute problems and seeks to achieve well-being from head to toe.”
Della S.
“I went to see Tim about a shoulder issue. The work I have done with him has helped tremendously in getting strength and range of motion back. Tim is very knowledgeable and he has used a number of treatment modalities to fix the problem(s). I can’t recommend Tim highly enough. There is no reason to be in pain and have limited activities. Go see Tim. You will be glad you did.”
Alice S.
“At age 80+ I was troubled by sciatic pain, brought on by degenerative disc disease, which kept me from my life’s work of handweaving and from my daily walks. In an effort to avoid surgical intervention and use of pain medications, I started working with Tim at Movement Solutions. After several weeks of visits, my pain subsided to a manageable level, and in the process, Tim helped me increase core strength and general fitness. I am now able to pursue my weaving and daily walks with no difficulty, and I’m maintaining my fitness level with daily exercise routines. My working with Tim was a great investment in overall health and quality of life. I strongly recommend Movement Solutions.”
Deborah B.
“I came to Dr Tim a year and half after I suffered a torn meniscus. I had made some progress, after a year of different therapies, but was still not able to run or achieve a full depth squat without pain in my knee. Dr Tim identified the areas of weakness and then addressed them. After only two sessions my knee pain was gone! He helped me to strengthen muscles and gain flexibility in my hips and ankles. I recently competed in a team Crossfit competition and had no difficulty with any of the movements. My partner and I took first place! After 6 weeks I ran sprints for the first time in almost two years without any pain! I am so thankful for his skill in identifying the root of the problem and his knowledge to correct it. My only regrets is not coming to him sooner!”
Justin C.
“I was having some lower back pain that just wouldn’t go away. After seeing Tim for just a few weeks I am feeling little to no pain, and we are working on how to prevent these issues from coming back. He is very interested in you as a person, your goals, and what you expect to get from the therapy. Highly recommend.”
Jeff M.
“Tim has been the best. I am really happy with the results we have gotten. No surgery, just physical therapy and his ability to identify the problem and develop the right exercise regimen. I would highly recommend his services.”
Caleb D.
“I’ve had two knee surgeries for a torn meniscus and recently re-tore it again. Tim has effectively and efficiently helped me gain back strength and mobility to avoid having another surgery. I’m able to play ball and exercise how I want to thanks to Tim’s help. I’ve received way more attention and help than I did at the typical physical therapists, and I’ve seen my visits with Tim to be a great investment!”
Catherine C.
“I appreciate the way Tim took his time to ask me questions about my back pain. He was thoughtful assessing my back pain in a way that I felt he was listening to me and my pain! From there we worked on movements that I was able to put in my tool box and use on a daily basis. Thank you Tim!!”
Rachel B.
“My knee pain was stopping me from doing everything, like steps, walking, and sitting on the floor with my kids. What I wanted most was to be an active mom and run with my daughter. After trying so many different treatments, I had almost lost hope that anything could be done. But I am grateful for the team at Movement Solutions. After a couple months, I can now run and squat again. Last week, I ran my first 20-mile week in years. While this may be more expensive than regular physical therapy, it’s 100% worth it if you want to be active again.”
Mary Anne I.
“I have gone from a very limited range of motion and strength in my arm due to tendonitis to complete recovery thanks to Tim. He is very knowledgable about how our bodies work and heal which translates into being a wonderful teacher of how we can best take care of our bodies and therefore feel our best. I highly recommend Tim for any physical therapy needs you may have.”
Pat M.
Dr. Tim did a great job helping me decrease pain and increase mobility/strength in my shoulder. We set a plan of action to accomplish my goals which are to continue to work hard at the gym, and around my yard. I learned how to strengthen my shoulder, get it in a position to minimize injury risk, and how to perform exercises I have been doing for years correctly. Over the weeks my pain decreased and my strength increased. Tim is personable, knowledgeable, and encouraging. I wish I had discovered his services a few years ago.
Angela S.
“Tim worked with me for weeks when I had pain in my knee. He was kind and patient, and thoughtfully prepared a program that strengthened muscles, reduced pain, and made me more attentive to what I was doing in my daily life that was aggravating my knee. He listened carefully to what my goals were (like being able to get down on the floor with my grandchildren), answered every question I had, and always explained what he was doing and how it fit into the plan to help my knee and ultimately my overall health. He provided me with the tools and education I needed to continue strengthening my body so that I could stay active with my grandkids. I would absolutely return to Tim for PT!”
Sharon G.
“While suffering with knee pain for the last 15 years, I thought if I changed my activity from Running to Cycling, Cycling to Crossfit, Crossfit to Weightlifting, Weightlifting to Yoga, and finally Yoga to Walking, that I could cure my chronic knee pain. But none of those activities were the solution. Then, I saw a discounted Discovery Session with Movement Solutions and thought, “This might work.” I was very skeptical! After a few months of physical therapy with Tim and Joe, I have absolutely no pain in my knee! I was met with kindness and patience as I attended my sessions. They really did listen to my questions and concerns and supplied me with a wealth of information as to why my knee was in such pain. I am so thrilled to be without pain as I continue to workout. Needless to say my skepticism was met with amazing results!”
Duncan C.
“I tried gel injections but didn’t get any relief. I heard about Movement Solutions and decided to start with them in December. I learned that fixing knee pain required strengthening multiple parts of your body. Working with them has allowed my every day life to be more enjoyable. You do have to work, but the results have been incredible and their program has changed my life. I enjoy yard work and athletics. These things used to be painful. Not only can I now do these things but I look forward to them. It’s been a great benefit to work with them. I would highly recommend their services.”

Bob W.
“Tim is an incredibly knowledgeable and effective therapist. His private therapy sessions improved my knee function and mobility immensely. Tim shows competence in evaluating the entire body to determine the causes for pain and discomfort. His evaluations weren’t limited only to looking at how I used my knees and legs, but to how my core strength and movements affected my knees. After completing therapy, my pain has been reduced significantly, if not eliminated. At the conclusion of therapy, Tim provided advice and exercises to encourage me to continue strengthening my body to prevent a relapse of knee pain.”
Susie B.
“I had ‘regular’ physical therapy after my knee surgery last April. But it just wasn’t enough. I decided to try Movement Solutions and I am happy to report that I have much better mobility in my knee. I was very discouraged after my surgery but now I am hopeful to have a normal life again. It would have been easy to give up and become a couch potato. But that’s not my lifestyle. I can now go up and down steps without holding on and have been able to return to hiking. I would encourage anyone suffering with knee pain to give Movement Solutions a shot.”
Jessie A.
“I had a super positive experience at Movement Solutions. I came in for right outer knee pain which was made worse by running. We did 8 sessions and it is totally better. I love Joe and I love Tim. They are patient and knowledgeable. I love that app that they have —it’s motivating to check it off each exercise. I’ve been in PT before and they spend 15 minutes and then bounce around to different patients. It was great to have full attention on for the full hour & the free info session with visuals.”
Megan B.
“I was totally blown away by Dr. Varghese’s assessment of my ankle tightness. In an hour he was able to pinpoint issues that have plagued me for years… I am excited to see how I progress under his care. The movements he prescribed to me are very easy to understand and I love that he sent them via email so I can use them on my phone in the gym. I’ve already recommended Movement Solutions to training clients.”

Dustin C.
“Tim is excellent! After being diagnosed with a partial rotator cuff tear I began physical therapy with Tim to begin rehab of my shoulder in hopes of avoiding surgery. Prior to the therapy, I couldn’t lift my arm above my head and had only a fraction of the strength in the affected arm/shoulder. After two months of working with Tim I regained full range of motion and strength in my shoulder/arm. At the end Tim provided an excellent personalized regime to continue the rehab process that transitioned to further strength conditioning for injury prevention. I highly recommend Tim and Movement Solutions!”
Jill L.
“Tim’s personalized approach is exactly what I was looking for! I am an “older” but very active person and involved competitively in a specialized sport. I sustained a knee injury just as my competition season was getting rolling. Instead of the patronizing attitude that I received from the orthopedic doctor, Tim took the time to assess my condition and my goals. I feel like I have found a resource where I can not only recover but actually improve my athletic ability, as well as implement a truly preventative health strategy as I age. If you don’t find the idea of surgery and cortisone injections appealing and are willing to work for it I think there are many conditions that can successfully go beyond just “maintaining”. I highly recommend Movement Solutions.”

“I had an excellent experience working with Tim to address problems with my knee. He was extremely knowledgeable, attentive, encouraging and focused on my recovery, which was a total success. Working with Tim was not necessarily the cheapest solution for me but it was totally worth it. Highly recommend.”
Cricket H.
“Tim was recommended to me by one of my CrossFit coaches. I was struggling with severe pain and limited mobility in my shoulder. He quickly diagnosed this pain, then also examined my other joints to identify any problems that may have been contributing to the shoulder issues. I appreciated the fact that we worked on several areas of weakness while my tendonitis healed. The sessions with Tim were always challenging, yet productive. I am happy to be back to my normal activities without feeling pain. I would highly recommend Tim!”
Paula D.
“If I could give Movement Solutions 10 stars, I would! I’m a 60-year-old grandmother who has been active my entire life, so two years ago when I started having lower back pain, it was devastating. The pain affected ALL areas of my life. After trying to self-treat with exercise, unsuccessfully, I decided to seek the care of an orthopedist and was diagnosed with lumbar spinal stenosis and spondylolisthesis. He began treatment with injections, that did not work, and also prescribed opioids. The opioids worked, but I didn’t want to go down that road. I wanted to “fix” what was causing the back pain, not mask it with drugs. I knew there had to be an underlying cause of the back pain. After I was told that surgery was probably my next option, I decided to research physical therapists here in town and found Dr. Varghese. I was immediately impressed by the reviews and decided to sign up for the initial consultation. What an impressive Doctor! I became his patient, and after only a few weeks of treatment, my pain level has significantly improved, and I am well on my way to becoming completely pain-free. My strength and mobility have both improved tremendously, and I’m excited to see what continued success I have under his care. Movement Solutions will always be my go-to for physical therapy, and I HIGHLY recommend Movement Solutions for anyone’s physical therapy needs!”
Rob J.
“For years I was dealing with neck and shoulder pain that became persistent. I decided to do something about it when I was in too much pain to exercise and it was generally putting me in a bad mood. As a 40 year old man I dealt with pain by exercising through it or taking a bunch of ibuprofen. However, this was no longer cutting it. A few of my friends recommended seeing a physical therapist. I was very skeptical about it to say the least, thinking it was only for severely debilitated elderly or post-operative patients. Movement Solutions developed a program specific to my needs/goals and gave me a daily plan to follow. After 6 weeks, I’m nearly pain free and getting back to lifting weights and exercising under the guidance of Dr. Tim. We are now working to improve my weight lifting techniques to prevent recurrence of pain and injury.
Go to Movement Solutions, I am confident they can help.”
Ann C.
“I came to movement Solutions with extreme back and back neck and shoulder pain I couldn’t even walk a short distance without having pain in my neck and shoulder. After just a few weeks of working with strengthening my core and working two help my joints move better I was able to walk without pain and do many of the things I had been unable to do for quite some time. I was skeptical of the help that dry needling would provide, but it did provide a lot of relief in my shoulder and neck area. I highly recommend movement Solutions if you’re having issues moving and you have pain in your joints. I have my life back now and with the help of the mobile app I also have the motivation to keep moving forward with a personalized plan. thank you movement solutions for your help and giving my active life back to me.”
Amy M.
“I am currently working with Tim to alleviate tendonitis in my shoulder. We are working to strengthen my shoulders, core, and work on issues with my neck and headaches. I am definitely making progress! I am excited about regaining full range of motion in my shoulder so I can get back to Burn Boot Camp. Contact Tim for real results to get you back on track!”
Trampis B.
“I went to see Tim for a shoulder issue I had been dealing with for a few months. His approach is one of the best, if not the best, in the area. I have seen other PT’s in the area for similar issues and never has anyone looked at anything beyond the problem area. Tim takes you through an entire body movement assessment that is designed to find all the weakness/issues you may have. Through this process, I am leaving with a better squat and deadlift; oh, and my shoulder works again as well. He may not be the cheapest option, but the results and knowledge I received from Tim more than make up for it. If you are in the greater Greenville area and even moderately serious about health and fitness, Tim is the guy you need to see if you get injured.”
Todd A.
“Tim is by far the best PT I have ever worked with. I came to Tim with chronic back and shoulder problems. In just two months, we have made amazing progress that I did not even think was possible. Tim even has me doing movements and exercises that I have not done in years. I look forward to continuing my progress with Tim. There is no better PT in the upstate than Tim. He is very open, honest, and fair.”
Christina H.
“Tim has helped me recover from debilitating low back pain. I have worked with a lot of PTs, I mean a lot. Tim has an effective approach, where he combines overall analysis of your strengths, weaknesses and imbalances, with insightful exercises, stretches and modalities to make real progress. I was in bad shape when I showed up, now I am returning to activities that I thought may never happen again. I would recommend Tim to anyone seeking real recovery and understanding.”
