About Susan Bennett Physical Therapy

Philosophy of our Practice
Our philosophy is simple: Listen to the individual and each one will reveal the underlying symptoms that impact safe, efficient and effective mobility. From there it is our job to complete a skilled and comprehensive examination, to confirm the underlying neuromuscular symptoms, determine how they impact your mobility, and establish an effective treatment to promote YOUR REHABILITATION AND WELLNESS! Bennett PT and Associates- History
Our practice began in 1992 when as a solo practitioner I decided to focus my clinical practice in Neurologic Rehabilitation, specifically in Multiple Sclerosis. This direction in my clinical career was sparked by an interaction I had with a client involved in the National MS Society, and the challenge that she provoked in me to understand the role that physical therapy could play in rehabilitation for individuals living with MS. Fast forward 21 years and our practice is now a leading force in promoting Neuroplasticity, Cortical Reorganization and promoting highest recovery possible in conditions that involve the central nervous system. In addition to MS our clinical practice now focuses on dizziness disorders, post concussion syndrome, stroke, traumatic brain injury, Parkinson’s Disease, ALS and any neuromuscular condition impacting mobility. The key to our success is a comprehensive examination and evaluation to identify the underlying symptoms or impairments that impact your ability to move safely, efficiently, and effectively. As a result of our success in promoting rehabilitation and wellness our practice has now grown to six physical therapists, all skilled in facilitating your recovery and promotion of Health and Wellness.

🧠 Did you know we treat Dysautonomia at Bennett Rehabilitation Institute?

Dysautonomia is an umbrella term for conditions that affect the autonomic nervous system — the part of your body that controls things like heart rate, blood pressure, and digestion.

For many, it shows up as:
🌀 Dizziness or lightheadedness (especially when standing)
💓 Heart palpitations or rapid heartbeat
🥱 Fatigue or brain fog
🌡 Temperature regulation problems

One of the most common forms is POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome), but there are others, too.

✨ The good news: Physical therapy can help.
At Bennett Rehabilitation Institute, we use vestibular and neurological rehab strategies to help patients with dysautonomia improve:
✔️ Balance
✔️ Endurance
✔️ Tolerance for upright positions
✔️ Confidence in daily life

If you or someone you love is struggling with dizziness, fatigue, or unexplained fainting spells, you’re not alone — and treatment is possible.
