"I injured myself on an elliptical machine. My clinician referred me to a Physical therapy clinic that was not really responsive to the referral after 2 weeks. I found Dana from Sweetgrass Physical Therapy on my Google search. I really liked her bio and called. They were very responsive and gave me a next day appointment because I was in so much pain I couldn't really walk. After a few weeks of treatment Dana had taught me how to centralize my pain, my pelvic floor was getting stronger, I no longer had issues of casual incontinence while laughing or coughing...however I still had a lot of pain on my whole leg. Dana encouraged me to go back to the clinic and request a muscle relaxant, anti inflammatory and an MRI. The clinician agreed and after one day of taking both meds, the pain diminished significantly and I was able to start walking with no jolting pain. I am writing this review because Dana really cared about my injury, she listened she was empathetic, she went to the bottom of my issue and her advice was on point!! I am now going through more imaging thanks to Dana's suggestion of going deeper into my injury and pain. In one of my therapy sessions, as Dana was explaining my physical condition, I started to cry, because she really understood my fears and the lifestyle change that I was going through due to my injury. If you're going through pain, are afraid of taking medication that could become addictive, and don't feel understood by your Dr. or clinician...I recommend Dana at Sweetgrass PT. She is professional, greatly knowledgeable, and has the patience to treat you. Dana taches you to understand your injury and how to use the tools in your "toolbox" (for pain management) that she's taught you. Dana is just an awesome person and an awesome Physical Therapist. Thank you Dana for teaching me so much about my spine, my pain and for your sincere concern about my injury."

"Dana is a skilled and compassionate physical therapist. Her focus for me has been on problem solving- helping to maximize my physical abilities despite limitations. She has worked with me to come up with an individual plan, not the cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all set of exercises that I've had at the PT clinics of the large medical provider groups in town. The office is large, clean, and bright, and Jimi (the business end of the practice) is welcoming and engaging. I finally feel that I've found a PT focused on my needs, not the needs of medical corporate administrators."

"I have been seeing Dana at Sweetgrass for five months. She is helping me deal with chronic back pain. My pain has reduced dramatically since I’ve been working with her and I am often pain free. She has given me daily exercises that keep me in better shape and out of pain. She is terrific! I highly recommend her!"

"Dana helps me discover the underlying cause of my chronic pain. Her counter-strain technique gets "upstream" of old patterns of tension to allow me to move and sleep without pain."

"I first saw Dana Hughes when she was at another clinic and I had injured my lower back. She did a great job treating me and I recovered completely. When I injured my shoulder last summer I saw her again in her new office which is a well-equipped and pleasant space. Dana is very good at pinpointing the issue and then focusing on the area needing help. She also gave me a lot of skills/exercises to do on my own to keep progressing with my recovery. I highly recommend her to anyone needing physical therapy!"

"Dana and Jimi are awesome. The facility is easy to find, clean and well equipped. Dana was excellent to work with and used some techniques I hadn't experienced with other PTs that really seem to help. She was able to answer all of my questions. They also played great music during my sessions. If needed, I'll definitely come back."

"Relief and Improved mobility! I really like the personal family business interaction that I have at sweet grass physical therapy. I have told Dana and her husband Jim that she has the magic touch. She has used a specialized technique called Strain-Counterstrain and has alleviated some pretty painful pressure points that nothing has helped in the past. They are professional, encouraging, and very skilled and knowledgeable. Dana was also able to help me improve in several other areas of pain and flexibility my foot which is improving my overall mobility. I’ve witnessed other clients both young and old seem to improve and be helped at Sweet Grass."

"So glad to have found Dana. She's helped me make more improvements in the areas where I needed therapy and has done so more efficiently than any other physical therapist that I have ever been treated by. She listened to my concerns and after completing a physical assessment, brought to my attention several things that were adding to the issues that I came to her with, that I was completely not piecing together with the issues that I was struggling with. Between the physical therapy, doing the prescribed exercises and putting in to place the adjustments that she suggested could make to my every day life, I am experiencing much needed relief, and am so thankful for Dana's care. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing physical therapy. "

"When I came into Sweetgrass I could barely walk a mile without being in pain. I was in pain when I sat down too and I'm a 29 year old male that weighs 125 lbs. I had old sport injuries to my right hip, knee, and ankle. I wasn't able to run anymore without collapsing from my knee giving out. Running is my passion so it was depressing to be in that state. I had been in physical therapy elsewhere for 2 years still doing the same exercises with little progress. At Sweetgrass I was in therapy for a couple of months. Now I'm doing backflips at the park and running like a new man without doing physical therapy exercises anymore! It's truly a miracle and I am blessed to have my life back. Dana is genuinely a healer. I highly recommend this practice."

"Awesome! Dana and Jimi go above and beyond. I highly recommend Dana. I went to a few other physical therapist before I found Dana and could not be happier! She is very knowledgeable and I know she will get me back on my feet soon."

"I was really happy with the “Sweetgrass Experience.”. Both Dana & Jimi exhibited a level of humanness & technical skill that put me at ease & made me feel good about my innate ability to make progress with the condition I saw them for. The therapy & on-going instructions for maintaining gains in the condition I saw them for were both really positive for me. I also very much appreciated their senses of humor."

"Dear all Dana was my physical therapist after my back surgery. I worked got UPS as a delivery driver. She got me going and back to work. I had many problems after I went back to work. She would wait for me after I got off work. She would give me a message, and tell me everything would be alright. This women saved my life...literally. My pain level was so high after I would get off work. She made it better. If you have the opportunity to see Dana @ SweetGRASS PT, you are lucky! She is the best!"

"Sweetgrass physical therapy and wellness is a game changer! I have had chronic pain from being hit by an automobile while walking over ten years ago and after just a couple sessions with Dana I have improved range of motion and less pain in the same areas that I used to feel pain and numbness in. Dana is focused on problem solving the specific needs of her clients. She is kind and attentive and sharp. I can tell because she is always compassionate, actively listening to my stories about my body even if they aren't always relevant to the healing we are doing. Her vision of care is holistic and her energy is grounding and reassuring. She is a practitioner that respects the body and it's feedback and she never forces any movements that aren't okay. Dana truly honors the body. She creates a safe space to communicate and offers such wonderfully helpful physical therapy so you can begin to feel good again. Highly recommended!"

Dearest Dana,

Thanks so much for your care and human touch! You are a professional with a genuine vocation to help others. I felt secure in your hands and your kind and generous attitude made me trust in your advice and exercises.

Dearest Dana,

Thank for your your significant and amazing work in helping me recover from my injuries. At our very first session I knew I was in good hands. You are knowledgable and skilled in the use of a wide range of techniques and professional in their applications. Did I mention personable too? How about awesome? I also appreciate the tools you gave me to maintain flexibility, strength and alignment on my own. It has been a relief and pleasure having you as my PT. You rock!

Dana and Jimi,

I give my most sincere thanks to you all for making me whole again. The last several years have been extremely difficult as I was barely able to walk. It is funny that something simple like mobility can make such a difference in daily living. You all have been kind, upbeat and challenged me appropriately. I sing your praises to whoever will listen. I will always remember my therapy as a positive experience, and I know my husband is happy to have his wife back. Thanks, MB
