I had a TMJ flare up and they were able to help me double my opening ability and take away most of my clicking and pain in just a couple weeks! They are very understanding and friendly. Itโ€™s good calm environment for rehabilitation strongly recommended especially for TMJ symptoms.

I recently had knee replacement surgery and needed physical therapy. I have gone to one of the largest physical therapy offices in Battle Creek several times over the years. They werenโ€™t horrible or anything but I felt like a number. They were so busy that after I went there for a few visits. they would just yell out when they saw me to go here or there and basically I felt like I was on my own, but paying through the nose. The therapists always had 3 lot more people they were working with during my time slot. So I decided this time I was going for a more personal experience. Armor Physical Therapy gave that to me. The therapists always set me up on the machines and when I wasnโ€™t on a machine they would demonstrate how to do the exercise and would be sure I was doing it right. I am now almost 2 months post op and am doing remarkably well. They were encouraging and personable and I highly recommend them to anyone who needs physical therapy.

Armor physical therapy Lakeview location is where Iโ€™ve been going for therapy on both shoulders. I cannot thank Bob and the rest of the therapist enough they went above and beyond to help me get back to where I was before I had to get surgery. I have had both right and left shoulder, rotator surgery and feel my strength gaining with every visit. The whole staff is what makes this place the best . Thank you all so much for all your help and encouragement, pushing me to do my best

Armor Physical Therapy has been a life saver for me. I have compressed nerves post thyroid surgery and from posture that causes daily pain in my neck, chest, left arm, and hand and I finally have relief after working with Elliot and Kaitlyn. Highly recommend this facility.

I highly recommend them if you need Pt in the Battle Creek area. They were the only ones that were able to fix my tendons. They are always very friendly and helpful. I will always come here when I need PT. I just love them.

All of the therapists at Armor are very friendly and professional. At my initial visit, the therapist spent lots of time with me to figure out the source of my ankle pain and chart a course for my recovery. After two doctors had dismissed me because I had no swelling and my x-rays were clear, it was sooo great to have validation! And my ankle is vastly better after less than two weeks. I couldn't be more pleased with the care that I have received.
