Our Story

Physical Therapy Services of Brattleboro was founded in 1987 by Sandra Ladd, PT. She opened her doors 10/12/87 at 56 Linden Street which was our home until January 2016 when we relocated to 30 Harris Place.

M. Damon Kindopp, PT, Cert. DN became partners with Sandy in January of 2000. Upon Sandy's retirement at the end of 2015, Shaun Barnes, MPT, Cert. DN became Damon's business partner transitioning from being a Staff Physical Therapist here since 2007.
​
​Over the years, we have worked hard to develop and maintain close working relationships with area Medical Doctors, Physician’s Assistants, Nurse Practitioners, Osteopaths, Chiropractors and Dentists by communicating consistently and effectively with all of our referral sources.


WHY CHOOSE US?

We have extensive skills above & beyond exercise prescription - we are "hands on therapists"!
​
We have advanced training in manual therapies including joint manipulations & soft tissue treatment to help you achieve an optimum outcome & become your "best you".
​
We offer Dry Needling to compliment our other skilled interventions.
​
We truly care about doing our best for you - we are a 100 % privately owned practice & our reputations are what we rely upon. We don't answer to stock holders. Just you.

DO I NEED A REFERRAL?

Physical Therapists in Vermont have Direct Access - this means that patients can be seen by a Physical Therapist without having a referral unless their insurance requires a physician’s referral (Medicare & Medicaid beneficiaries must be referred).
 
We fully recognize that in today’s health insurance climate that having insurance coverage by no means makes treatment accessible and affordable. Many people have extremely high deductibles or co-pays. In an effort to make access to our skills financially accessible to the uninsured or those with high deductibles/co-pays we offer a discount for payment at the time of treatment if we do not have to submit a claim to an insurance company and wait for payment.

OUR QUALIFICATIONS

Our Therapists are all committed to being lifelong learners. We are passionate about doing our best to help our patients achieve their optimal results. 
​
We all regularly participate in continuing education trainings in areas that are of interest to each of us professionally. This enables us to have as many tools as possible at our disposal to offer you increasingly more effective treatment as we grow & learn as practioners.

What are patients saying about us?

MONIQUE A.
Amazing group of professionals who helped me recover from an ankle break last winter...from the receptionist Lori who worked around my schedule to Shaun who supported me through my recovery...I was so happy to go to my appointments, report on my progress and work back up to running and working out again! Since my recovery I have had a few check in visits and I can't say enough about how thankful I am to be able to have help right around the corner. I highly recommend this group and especially Shaun who has really helped me stay on track and keep going on!


BARBARA W.
I have been recovering FOREVER (2011) from a horse accident promptly followed by a black ice spill and the resulting shoulder surgery, neck injections and PT. Damon has already after only a few sessions got my neck, shoulder and spine better than I ever imagined could happen! My gratitude knows no bounds! I am now starting a formal exercise program! Super talented professional


JANE F.
Having limped in with a ripped up knee, or been unable to lift an envelope over my head due to a torn RC, I am pleased to know that PTS of B is just a quick drive away. I've received incredibly great professional care, people listen and work with me, and I'm feeling better. And I'm not the most compliant (read, exercises!) patient. Damon Kindopp's dry needling therapy is working magic on my very sore and torn (3 tears and several spurs) shoulder. It is exhilarating and joyful to be able to do things I have been unable to do for the last 15 years! I appreciate how they keep in touch with my orthopedic doc, as well. Kudos to all and five stars.....more if it were possible


DAVID H.
Nothing short of amazing! Truly. Two weeks ago I was afraid I wouldn't be able to run in the Boston Marathon in six weeks because my knee was swollen and I had shooting pains from my ankle to my kneecap. I saw Damon at Physical Therapy Services and after a couple of hip and back adjustments and some pretty intensive "dry needling" in the back of my knee my knee feels great and I was able to run 30 miles in 3 days...and my legs are ready for more! Damon was thorough and understanding and gave me tremendous confidence in his ability to identify and remedy the problems I was having. I'm now looking forward to running a confident and pain free marathon in a few weeks


JOHN W.
They have done a remarkable job helping me recover from knee surgery as well a shoulder injury. The improvement in knee flexion and reduction in shoulder pain have been far beyond my expectations. The variety of techniques, especially dry needling, has had a profound effect on the rate and extent of my recovery.


ANDREW M.
Another great session with PTSB! As an active 44 year old I seem to be getting dinged up more and more these days. Between Crossfit, Racquetball, soccer and skiing there's always something out of place and aching. They continually straighten me out (literally and figuratively), and help keep me doing what I love.
I can't recommend them highly enough!

CHELSEY L.
I have had tremendous back pain for the past week. After a session with Shaun today I'm finally going to bed without tears of agony and frustration!! I will be recommending Shaun to everyone I know!
