"I've been working with Kelly for the last several weeks. She has been wonderful. She explains each exercise clearly and is very patient. Easy to work with.
Barbara L. Aug. 2018
"PT was tough when I started but everyone here made it easier to get through. Jenn and Elizabeth were excellent. Craig was also very knowledgeable and explained why my knee needed this PT to heal. It is much better now. I would recommend this place and people to everyone."
Angela C. July 2018
"Kyle was very competent, kind, compassionate. He was extremely diligent to check on all that I was doing to see what was working best. He debriefed me at every session and researched exercises that might work better. He was attentive to see that I was working correctly. KYLE WAS GREAT!! I am thankful for all of you at the Wellness Institute.
Tristan was very kind and worked to see that I was doing things correctly."
Virginia C. July 2018
"The therapy was well planned. Alan has only been the 2nd person that actually listened to a nerve issue (on leg) that I have had since 2005. With his and Kyle and staff's treatment plan there has been great improvement. Kyle and staff (front desk included) have always been considerate."
Jane K. July 2018
"My experience has bee great! My recovery time was fast due to the efforts of all the people at the Wellness Institute."
Thomas C. May 2018
"I started at the Wellness Institute several months ago after seeing my orthopedic Dr. for horrific knee pain. It was recommended after a while to try Physical Therapy. I can;t begin to tell you the difference PT made. From not being able to walk without excruciating pain, to using a cane, to now walking almost pain free. It is truly a wonder. Then I developed plantar fasciitis in my foot- could barely walk again. Back to PT (for a few weeks). Well, today is hopefully my last day of treatment and I am standing, walking unassisted, almost totally pain free. I would like to thank the staff at the Wellness Institute for their kindness and expertise, especially Alan and Kyle. What a remarkable team those two are! Their expertise, professionalism are commended. Thank you both for all you did for me."
Arline R. May 2018
"From the first day I walked in, I was greeted by Melinda who was friendly, encouraging and accommodating. Alan introduced me to the world of PT and he and his staff could not have been more professional, caring and supportive. I would recommend this facility and this group to anyone!!. Not only did they make me feel special, they fixed my back!!"
Daniel C. May 2018
"This Physical Therapy experience has been sensational. The staff have been very professional. The leadership and knowledge that Craig and Jenn share is exemplary. I thank the good Lord that I was able to have this experience and I am so much healthier because of the treatments I experienced here."

Henry May 2018
"One year ago I fell down the basement stairs and injured the back of my head and neck. I needed to undergo 2 operations and was in considerable pain for many months. When we moved to Sun City from Atlanta, I discovered the Wellness Institute. I had a great initial meeting with Craig Weyer who explained the course of treatment at the Wellness Institute. Now it’s a couple of months later, and I’m feeling much better. The quality of my life has increased, and I look forward to my sessions with Jennifer every two weeks. I highly recommend the Wellness Institute to anyone who needs physical therapy."

“I find the IR exceptionally helpful in managing the pain of sciatica. It’s like taking an Advil but no pills needed. I’ve just started the weight loss program and hope to notice loss in a month. Plus, my skin looks luminous! (Many compliments).”
Chris M. February 2018
"I have had continuous pain since surgery in March of 2017. I have been doing PT weekly. Even though I have become stronger I tried the infrared sauna to seek pain relief. I have been coming to the sauna for 2 1/2 months. Although I still have pain, I am getting relief overall. I have a feeling of well-being after a season."
Deb M. February 2018

Don N. February 2018
"Staff here helped me be more patient in accepting slow but steady progress in dealing with lymphedema from breast cancer and with pain from herniate discs and spinal stenosis. Kelly is terrific and has a magic touch! I'm now able to walk without pain. Everyone, including Maddie at the front desk, treats you like family. I felt welcomed the day I started and quickly became a recognized member of the Wellness Institute family. Maddie was always smiling to start our day. My therapist and assistants , Donna, Andrea, Kelly and Jamie, were excellent, caring and professional. At my graduation, Andrea taught my husband massage techniques for lymphedema. Thank you."
Barbara F. February 2018
"The IR has helped me with overall pain relief. I've noticed how it has been a benefit and works well with PT. It also serves well for relaxing the body."
Brenda W. February 2018
“Maddie – Always a smile combined with efficiency. Also knowledgeable about all company/staff functions/scheduling thus a major source. Don’t lose her as the face and source of the Wellness Institute!
Erin – My initial contact did very well. But as I aged, she did her best and best it was. Degree of acts transferred me to Alan, I am problematic. Her daily attitude and professionalism is healing! She listens!
Alan – has been a continued source of evaluation. Altering my program as needed — I have multiple issues. Will confer for successful adjustment, but Alan has adjusted to my pains and will confer with my MD. Alan possibly really knows more than me.
Melinda – Has helped far beyond desk help! Constant professionalism and helpful to old confused folks — Me! Always willing to go the extra mile-thinks outside the box. Keeps folks coming.”
Peggi S. September 2017
“I’ve been to three other PT locations over the past 10 years, and the Wellness Institute far surpasses the others in professionalism, attentiveness, friendliness of staff, and overall patient care. I will definitely recommend you to anyone who needs PT services.”
Bennie H. July 2017
“Personal care was extremely sincere. Friendly staff and efficient (on time for appointments). Have recommended to several Sun City friends. Thank you for helping me.”

“At 73, I believed that my back pain was here to stay. Craig and Jenifer explained and showed me that I had joints that were not moving and the proper manipulation and exercise was all I needed. Today, my back feels well!”
Mary Jane J. June 2017
“The Wellness Institute is in a league of its own as far as physical therapy. The facility is state-of-the-art…a place you actually look forward to going. The staff is friendly and supportive and Craig and his team of PTs are Incredible. They are skilled, knowledgeable and committed to your recovery. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.”
Joanne B. February 2017
“The Wellness Institute is great!! Craig and his staff are as friendly as they are effective, whether working on what ails me or providing me with fitness tips that I will carry on for life. They know what therapy is all about! The center’s tennis and golf training areas are a real bonus, providing their patients with inspiration and training for the light at the end of the rehab tunnel.”
Gail B. February 2017
“Without a doubt, the physical therapy experience at the Wellness Institute is the best in the Lowcountry. From when you first walk in the door, Maddie and Melinda are ready for you. They will prepare you for your physical well-being, the first working your smile muscles. Then it’s off to the back, where employees with a vast amount of experience in “torture” will get you back into shape. As you leave, Maddie and Melinda will say goodbye in such a way, you’ll look forward to coming back for more.”
Bill C. January 2017
