Healing Bridge Physical Therapy

Allison Suran PT, GCFP, TPS, specializes in holistic PT for people in chronic pain.

She uses The Feldenkrais Method, mindfulness, Pain Science and Compassionate Coaching through the unpredictability of pain. I founded Healing Bridge Physical Therapy in 1998 with a vision of providing physical therapy in a holistic way to Central Oregonians. I define holistic as providing every client with one-on-one attention in a private atmosphere with respect and compassion. Holistic also means incorporating comprehensive care for your body including how your thoughts, emotions and life experiences have influenced your health and response to injury and pain. After 30+ years of management including 20+ years running a full-scale physical therapy clinic, I downsized in 2018 and now practice solo and manage all aspects of my business including phone calls and insurance. This allows me to focus on each individual person and your unique situation with pain. I know the ins and outs of the medical system, have practiced in Bend since 1988 and can support you in working with your current medical team or help you find new practitioners that can help you find relief from chronic pain. See my website for more info: www.healingbridge.com

If you experience chronic pain or want to see how The Feldenkrais Method, Mindfulness, and Compassionate Coaching can help you decrease pain and improve your life, please leave a phone message and I will contact you so that we can determine if my services are what you are looking for to feel better.

In the New Year rather than trying to change or improve ourselves, may we resolve to love and fully accept our perfectly-imperfect selves. 💜🥰💝

Our Story

Healing Bridge Physical Therapy was established in 1998 with a dream to create a unique healing environment. What sets Healing Bridge apart from the rest? During the summer of 2018 the owners, Allison and Scott Suran made the difficult decision to downsize, eliminate all employees (with the exception of part time billing assistance) so that Allison could focus on her passion of helping people who experience chronic/persistent pain rather than trying to support employees in a healthcare environment that made it difficult if not impossible for her to provide a quality experience for patients and employees alike.

Allison is now using the skills she has developed since becoming a licensed physical therapist in 1987. She has specialized in The Feldenkrais Method, Mindfulness, Pain Neuroscience Education, Sleep, mind/body studies, and extensive learning in compassionate coaching, communication and empathy for people who are experiencing significant life challenges -- like chronic pain.

Allison’s passion for continued education with the goal of deepening her skills to help her clients has never waned. She started physical therapy school with the goal of integrating the medical approach of physical therapy with holistic methods. Since then, science has caught up and there is extensive evidence that supports treatments that include the whole person.

Clients who work with Allison to resolve or improve their chronic pain experience find a practitioner who fully understands the multiple complexities and history involved with on-going pain. Allison does not just make her patients start an exercise program. Instead she aims to fully understand the entirety of their situation before initiating suggestions to improve their life experience -- and this is unique to each patient.
