There is nothing like going to a therapist who specializes in an area they are passionate about! I am a physical therapist and new mom who needed post-partum services after having my first baby. Celia, specializing in pelvic floor therapy, is so knowledgeable and creates a program tailored to your specific needs. She helped me heal post-partum and strengthen my body to get me back to myself. Thank you so much, Celia!

From my first appointment, it’s very obvious my care and recovery from pain was the first priority of Hartz. By four weeks pain was gone and I was functioning as my usual self once more.

My experience @ Hartz PT Lititz was beyond my expectations and I highly recommend them. I wasn't sure anything would relieve my neck and back pain and give me back my ROM. Justin and Jen were excellent. Very professional, knowledgeable and kind. They started me on an exercise program that increased my strength and stability where needed and on days when I had more pain they did muscle manipulation/massage. They were very attentive and invested in my success with the program. By the time discharge came, my pain was greatly diminished and I was able to do more than I ever thought possible! I was sent home with an exercise program to continue. I'm so glad I ended up at Hartz, I wouldn't go anywhere else for PT!

When I went to Hartz Therapy after my rotator cuff surgery I could hardly move my arm. 6 weeks later my range of motion is amazing and I am now working on strengthening. Hartz Therapy, Ephrata has amazing, knowledgeable, and caring therapists. I look forward to each visit because I know they will get me back to my pre-surgery self (even better) and they are truly wonderful people to be around. Would highly recommend.

I had an incredible experience at Hartz Physical Therapy. Everyone was super cheerful, helpful, and believed that I could achieve my dreams of getting strong enough to be active again! I was given a lot of tools that I will continue to use even after finishing the formal therapy. Celia was incredible to work with. I will recommend physical therapy from Hartz to anyone with an injury!

I highly recommend Hartz Physical Therapy, Ephrata Office, for higher than 5 star service for my rehab from shoulder surgery! (Injury not from pickleball) I saw David, working with several other therapists. They worked me hard with many varied exercises. There was always, and I still have, homework. My results have been amazing. Day 1 of therapy I had zero mobility. After 3 months, I had 80% and today, I have regained darn near 95% of my shoulder function. It's not easy and I had to pay the co-pays. But, now that it is over, I am sure I did the right thing to enjoy an active life .....and be able to hit my overhead pickleball shots! Blessings to the Hartz staff for all their good works!

Awesome experience! I saw Celia for pelvic floor therapy. She is attentive, knowledgable, thorough, and makes sure you feel comfortable with the exercises. I would recommend Celia and this practice to anyone looking for PT.

I went to them because I'd rather attend a smaller physical therapy place compared to larger ones. They also support local charities and are very engaged with local community outreach. The people here are so very nice, knowledgeable, and helpful in getting my knee back to normal!! When you leave they give you detailed copies of exercises you did with them, so that I may do them at home to keep my knees in shape. They make you feel like you are part of their family at Hartz! They are the BEST and I would never go anywhere else for my physical therapy!!!!

This is something I should’ve done sooner. I had been putting this off for months, they even got me in without a referral. I was dealing with pain for a while, couldn’t even workout. Kevin fixed me right up and got me back to the gym. Thank you, Jim McCracken

Your comfort is our priority, and we’ll do everything we can to ensure you feel at ease throughout your care.

Fully equipped with a wide range of machines and therapy tools, this space allows our therapists to deliver personalized care while motivating and challenging patients to reach their full potential. The open layout provides the freedom and flexibility needed to support every step of the recovery journey.

Treatment Approach

Our team-oriented approach ensures consistency of care through 1-on-1 individualized treatment sessions in a fun, comfortable, and supportive environment for patients.  As a small locally-owned business, HARTZ Physical Therapy staff members are focused on providing our patients with plenty of treatment time to ask questions and complete their sessions so they can leave therapy with the tools to maintain a healthy and pain-free life.  Not to mention, studies have proven that quick access to hands-on care leads to better patient outcomes…and we can see you within 24-48 hours!

Why HARTZ PT?

It’s important to remember that you have a CHOICE where you go for PT and we promise you will see that Physical therapy is DIFFERENT at HARTZ PT.

  • We are LOCALLY-OWNED & INDEPENDENT which means we prioritize patient well-being over profits, resulting in a better patient experience and you pay less out of pocket than at hospital-owned clinics.
  • Here you will work with the SAME THERAPIST TEAM each visit; this consistency of care results in better outcomes.
  • Research shows that quick access to care gets you back to doing what you love faster!  We can see you within 24 – 48 HOURS and a physician’s referral is NOT necessary.
  • PT should NOT be like a three-ring circus with your therapist juggling 3-4 patients at a time. At HARTZ PT you get ONE-ON-ONE care during well-spaced appointments so our focus is entirely on you & your care.
