Helping You Move Better, Feel Better, and Return to the Activities You Love
Pain, injury, and movement limitations can make everyday tasks feel challenging. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, preparing for surgery, or working to stay active as you age, physical therapy can help restore mobility, reduce pain, and improve function.
At Granite State Physical Therapy, our experienced clinicians provide personalized orthopedic rehabilitation programs designed to help patients recover from injuries, manage musculoskeletal conditions, and return to the activities that matter most. We treat patients of all ages at our Concord, Gilford, Hooksett, and Plymouth locations.
Using evidence-based treatment techniques, hands-on care, therapeutic exercise, and advanced rehabilitation equipment, we create individualized treatment plans that support long-term recovery and lasting results.
Conditions We Treat
Neck and Back Pain
Neck and back pain are among the most common reasons people seek physical therapy. Pain may develop gradually from posture, repetitive stress, or arthritis, or occur suddenly after an injury.
Common conditions include:
- Neck pain and stiffness
- Low back pain
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Sciatica
- Degenerative disc disease
- Spinal stenosis
- Postural dysfunction
- Muscle strains and sprains
Physical therapy focuses on reducing pain, improving mobility, restoring strength, and helping patients return to normal activities safely.
Shoulder, Elbow, Wrist, and Hand Injuries
Upper extremity injuries can make work, exercise, sports, and daily activities difficult.
We commonly treat:
- Rotator cuff injuries
- Shoulder impingement
- Frozen shoulder
- Tendonitis
- Tennis elbow
- Golfer’s elbow
- Wrist pain
- Hand injuries
- Overuse conditions
Treatment may include manual therapy, strengthening exercises, mobility training, and activity modification to help restore function and reduce pain.
Hip, Knee, Ankle, and Foot Conditions
Lower extremity injuries often affect walking, balance, exercise, and overall mobility.
Conditions frequently treated include:
- Knee pain
- Meniscus injuries
- Ligament sprains
- Hip pain
- Tendonitis
- Plantar fasciitis
- Achilles tendon injuries
- Ankle sprains
- Foot pain
Our therapists work to improve strength, flexibility, stability, and movement patterns to support a safe return to daily activities and recreation.
Tendon and Ligament Injuries
Tendons and ligaments help stabilize and support joints throughout the body. When injured, they can cause pain, weakness, instability, and reduced function.
Common conditions include:
- Tendonitis
- Tendinopathy
- Tendon ruptures
- Ligament sprains
- Overuse injuries
- Repetitive stress injuries
Physical therapy can help reduce inflammation, improve tissue healing, restore strength, and decrease the risk of future injury.

We frequently treat:
- Muscle strains
- Muscle spasms
- Contusions and bruises
- Muscle tears
- Contractures
- Myofascial pain
- Overuse injuries
Treatment focuses on restoring normal movement, reducing pain, and safely returning patients to their desired level of activity.
Arthritis and Joint Pain
Arthritis is one of the leading causes of pain and mobility limitations in adults. While physical therapy cannot reverse arthritis, it can help reduce pain, improve joint function, and support an active lifestyle.
We work with patients experiencing:
- Knee arthritis
- Hip arthritis
- Shoulder arthritis
- Hand arthritis
- Osteoarthritis
- Rheumatoid arthritis
Treatment focuses on improving mobility, strengthening supporting muscles, reducing stiffness, and helping patients remain active and independent.
TMJ Disorders
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders can cause pain and dysfunction in the jaw and surrounding muscles.
Symptoms may include:
- Jaw pain
- Clicking or popping
- Difficulty chewing
- Headaches
- Facial pain
- Limited jaw movement
Physical therapy can help improve jaw mobility, reduce muscle tension, and decrease pain associated with TMJ dysfunction.

Living with chronic pain can affect nearly every aspect of life, including work, sleep, exercise, and daily activities.
We work with patients experiencing:
- Chronic neck pain
- Chronic back pain
- Fibromyalgia

We provide rehabilitation for a variety of sports-related injuries, including:
- Sprains and strains
- Tendon injuries

Joint Replacement Rehabilitation
Joint replacement surgery can dramatically improve quality of life, but successful outcomes often depend on rehabilitation.
We help patients recover after:
- Total knee replacement
- Total hip replacement
- Total shoulder replacement
- Revision joint replacement procedures
Physical therapy focuses on restoring range of motion, improving strength, reducing pain, and helping patients return to everyday activities as efficiently as possible.

Strong core muscles play a critical role in supporting the spine and reducing stress on the neck and back.
Our spine rehabilitation programs may include:
- Core strengthening
- Postural training
- Flexibility exercises

These programs help patients improve stability, reduce pain, and prevent future injuries.
