Dr. Shane is very knowledgeable about the mechanics of the human body. He tailors the treatment to the individual as opposed to the “one size fits all” treatment at other physical therapy facilities. He uses many different forms of therapy to facilitate maximum healing: dry needling (with current), manual massage, red light therapy, scraping, pulse therapy and physical exercise. To add to that, Dr. Shane has a very pleasant demeanor and is very compassionate. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking the full benefits of physiotherapy. Less

The depth of Dr. Shane’s knowledge and abilities never ceases to amaze me. There’s no one better to coax a body back to strength and homeostasis. (Broken ankle rehab) Seriously, this guy is amazing! It’s no wonder so many athletes go to him.

I saw Dr Shane Smith several years ago because I had knee surgery and foot surgery the same day and it was a lot more extensive than I ever thought it would be. I went to my first visit in a wheelchair and I really did not think I would walk again, and I was crying, and Dr Shane Smith told me I would walk again, and he was right.

I saw Dr Shane Smith several years ago because I had knee surgery and foot surgery the same day and it was a lot more extensive than I ever thought it would be. I went to my first visit in a wheelchair and I really did not think I would walk again, and I was crying, and Dr Shane Smith told me I would walk again, and he was right. He got me out of the wheelchair to crutches, and then to walking. It was not easy, but he kept me upbeat and he was fun to talk to, so my appointments went by very fast. He really knew how to individualize my treatment plan for my special needs. A few years later I tore my shoulder and could barely move my arm, but I did not want to have surgery, so I went back to Dr Smith for my shoulder, and he started doing treatments, and today I am completely healed with zero pain and complete range of motion. I looked forward to my visits and Dr Smith again was very creative with the treatments and exercises he did on my shoulder. I would recommend Dr Shane Smith for any of your Physical Therapy needs Less

I had unbearable jaw pain as a wisdom tooth started to come through halfway through my second pregnancy. Dr. Smith took so much care to make me feel understood to deliver the right treatment, even in the middle of his busiest season. He had not only the skillset to deliver pain relief by his hands, but the training to take it further with advanced technology. After four nights of not being able to sleep longer than two hour increments from the pain, I finally got the eight hours I needed! Less

Dr. Smith has treated me for lower back pain and most recently after I injured my shoulder. He does a great job of explaining the reasons why I’m feeling pain and how we together can correct it. I always leave his office feeling better. I also really like how he gives me various stretching positions and exercises I can do at home to increase and speed up my healing process.

I went for PT at Naples Premier Physical Therapy following knee surgery to repair a torn quadricep tendon and miniscus. I had previously received PT from Dr Shane Smith for other problems and had no hesitation to return to his practice to address this post surgery situation. PT consisted of restoring and strengthening the quad muscle and knee range of motion to pre surgery status.

Dr. Smith has made all the difference with my persistent and painful Plantar Fasciitis and chronic neck pain. After my first session with him I noticed that the pain had significantly diminished. Not only is he effective, he is deeply caring and empathetic. I have recommended him to numerous friends.

Dr. Shane Smith is great! I was experiencing hip pain while running and after 3 or 4 sessions I am running pain free again. He is very thorough and doesn't rush through appointments. The office is very clean and bright too!

I just finished my foot therapy with Shane. The pain and discomfort I was experiencing is gone. Shane is very professional and knowledgeable. More important for me, he is friendly and puts you at ease. I would highly recommend Shane if you need physical therapy.

If I could give Dr Shane Smith 6 stars I would. He decreased my SI joint pain after my pain doctor said I couldn’t be helped further. Most importantly Shane managed my body knowledge and expectations and has helped me to strengthen muscles that have replaced the load on my injured muscles. I had been to 2 other excellent PT offices and given up on solving my pain issues. Then I visited Dr Smith ... More

We have been treated by a number of Physical Therapists over the years. Dr. Smith is the first holder of a PhD. in Physical Therapy. He has reached the pinnacle of the academic ladder in this field. Dr. Smith has melded numerous therapies, such as Radial Pulse Therapy, Cold Light Laser Stimulation and Graston soft tissue therapy into his practice. I've seen Dr. Smith team up with a podiatrist and together they managed to remove, without any surgery, a growth that had attached to a woman's tendon on the bottom of her foot. Dr. Smith has helped me heal from a terrible rotator cuff strain and triceps injuries. This is the best physical therapist I've ever, we've ever had the good fortune of working with. He eats, breaths and sleeps this stuff.....exactly what I want I my therapist to do. Thank you, Dr. Smith Less
